Categories: East Asia, China, Japan, South Korea, History, Humanitarian Response, International Relations, Politics

A group of Japanese lawmakers took out an ad in the Washing Post [1] to present “the facts” about the comfort women that “no historical document has ever been found by historians or research organisations that positively demonstrates that women were forced against their will into prostitution by the Japanese army”. Robert Koehler from Marmot's Hole commented on the “facts” of the ad with other “facts” [2].
