politically immature children who do not know the rudiments of diplomacy (international politics

I have already mentioned that I subscribe to the Weekly Shincho without fail every week just to read the columns by Masayuki Takayama and Yoshiko Sakurai.
A friend of mine subscribes to the magazine from cover to cover.
I was astonished by an article my friend read in this week's Weekly Shincho.
I have never watched any of TV Asahi's programs featuring Toru Tamagawa.
His indescribable stupidity is an obvious fact.
I knew that he had graduated from Kyoto University's Faculty of Agriculture.
Of all things, I knew that he was a graduate of my beloved alma mater, Sendai Niko High School, Kyoto University, and TV Asahi because the article said so.
But after a while, I realized why he had become such a fool.
My alma mater would never cultivate such a leftist pedophile.
It was Kyoto University that had turned him into such an irredeemable fool and a traitor.
The testimony of Ms. Kumiko Takeuchi, who has the intelligence and insight to have studied at Kyoto University's Faculty of Science, is correct.
It is not an exaggeration to say that many universities in Japan are occupied by professors who are leftist pedophiles.
There are many leftist pedophile Marxists, masochistic views of history and communist sympathizers at the top of Tokyo University and Kyoto University. They wonder, "What in the world are these professors?"
The reason is that the stupidity of Tamagawa Toru and that of Hirano Keiichiro, also a Kyoto University graduate, are equal and of the same kind.
The reality is that red professors at red universities are mass-producing fools like them.
Mr. Tsutsumi Gyo, my senior, is the pride of my alma mater, which I have mentioned many times.
There is a world of difference between him and Toru Tamagawa.
They are wise men and fools. It is a striking difference between a true nationalist and a traitor.
The following is an excerpt from the 196th installment of the Konnyaku Question and Answer, titled "The Third World War," which has already begun in a three-page column on pages 118-128 of the monthly magazine "Hanada," published on the 26th.
The part at the end of this chapter where Mr. Tsutsumi mentions the relationship between former Prime Minister Suga and Taro Kono was precisely what I was thinking.
It must read not only for the Japanese people but for people worldwide.
The emphasis in the text, except for the headline, is mine.

The Two Meanings of a National Funeral
Editorial Board 
How was the state funeral of former Prime Minister Abe?
Tsutsumi 
I'm glad it went off without a hitch; that's all I can say.
After all, there are so many idiots; you never know what they will do.
Kubo 
Compared to Queen Elizabeth's funeral that took place just before, which was colorful to the point of being gaudy, Abe's state funeral was thoroughly monochrome and quiet.
It's a funeral, so it's better like that.
Even so, I was surprised at the thoroughness of Queen Elizabeth's funeral, in which she carried her body through England, Wales, Scotland, and the rest of the Kingdom of Great Britain for two days. Even though it was to enhance national prestige, I was impressed by the thoroughness of how she used her body to the marrow and was also impressed by the fact that the British Empire had indeed fallen.
The queen wants this, and the people use even the queen, a mature national consciousness of the people.
However, I saw Queen Elizabeth's funeral somewhat overlapping with the end of the "two Crowned Tatars" of the French Revolution, when Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were dragged through the streets and guillotined. 
On the other hand, Abe's state funeral, in which a bullet killed him, was to start dragging the dead by the feet, undermine their international reputation, and have them removed through the streets and guillotined.
What is the difference? 
The Diet is now trying to legislate and set rules for state funerals, but what is lacking in understanding is that there are two meanings to state funerals in the first place.
One is a state funeral following the law, or "theory.
The other is a state funeral as prestige diplomacy. 
As I have quoted before, Hans Morgenthau, in his book "International Politics" (Fukumura Publishing Co., Ltd.), writes about the policy of diplomatic prestige: "However ridiculous it may be, it is a policy of distinction. The world of diplomacy, with all its ridiculous rules of etiquette, disputes over ranks and seats, and empty formalism, is indeed the antithesis of the democratic way of life. Still, it is an essential element of state relations." 
Considering Abe's international reputation, it is a prestige diplomacy imperative to hold his funeral as a "state funeral" as an established national rite in the international community.
On the other hand, those who bring up "ethics" or shout that it is a violation of the Constitution are ignorant idiots who do not understand the essential elements of international diplomacy.
In the words of Max Weber, they are "politically immature children who do not know the rudiments of diplomacy (international politics). 
The biggest problem is that Kishida did not clearly declare at the beginning, "In my political judgment, I will conduct this state funeral as a prestige diplomacy.
Tsutsumi 
In the first place, the Cabinet decided on the national funeral based on the Act for Establishment of the Cabinet Office.
For example, the National War Veterans Memorial Ceremony, held annually on August 15, is also based on a Cabinet decision.
The Cabinet, composed of the political parties that won the majority in the elections, makes decisions on national affairs.
There should be no problem.
Kubo 
Why didn't he stick his chest out and insist on it if that is the case? However, the opposition parties, saying that he was forcing his condolences on the people and that it was a violation of the Constitution, turned their back on him, which led to a growing opposition among the people.
Kishida lacks the will and determination to "do it decisively.

Failure to recognize the state of emergency    
Tsutsumi 
Kishida's indecision to the right and left is not limited to the state funeral. He is unreliable in many ways.
For example, North Korea recently fired missiles at a rapid rate, and on October 4, they flew over Japan.
Kishida said, "This is an outrage, and I strongly condemn it," but his eyes were floating in the air and unreliable.
The situation is a state of emergency, with missiles from the North flying over our heads, but there is no significant debate in the Diet.
The public has yet to voice any great concern either.
They have become so accustomed to the situation that they do not recognize it as an emergency. 
In 1998, a North Korean missile flew over the Japanese archipelago and landed off the coast of Sanriku.
At that time, too, there was no significant debate.
Since then, no matter how many times the North has launched missiles, we have not woken up.
How about if it landed on Mt. Fuji for a change?
Kubo. 
Even then, it might not be effective.
For example, some lobotomies cut off the frontal lobes.
It is surgery to remove the ferocity from a violent neurotic patient. Instead of regaining peace of mind, the patient loses his vitality, becomes less motivated, and becomes indifferent and indifferent to actual events.
In the same way, the postwar Japanese have had their frontal lobes cut off.
By MacArthur. 
For example, the preamble of the Constitution, "If tyranny and slavery, oppression and insularity (as in Japan, Germany, and Italy) are forever removed from the earth" and "trust in the justice and faith of all nations," ..., is the same logic of this frontal lobe surgery.
It led to Article 9, "Renunciation of War and Denial of the Right to Use Force and Belligerence," which, like the lobotomy, has created the current peace idiot, lifeless, indifferent to actual events, and policyless Japanese.
Tsutsumi 
J-Alert sounds and warns, "If you are outside, evacuate to a nearby building or underground.
In the city center, there are subways and other underground facilities, but where I live, there are no underground facilities that can serve as shelter.
Even if I am told to evacuate, where should I go for shelter? 
There are underground shelters in Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine.
Many other countries have shelters.
Editorial 
Switzerland is said to have shelters for all its citizens.
Tsutsumi 
Japan does not have one.
Five years ago, a North Korean missile flew over Japan, and this is the seventh time.
And yet, not a single "she" of shelter is heard in the Diet.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno commented on the news of the North's missile launch, "We will continue to work closely with relevant countries, including the United States, and do our utmost to respond."
He says this every time, but what is the cooperation, and what kind of response will he take? 
Why doesn't the reporter ask that? 
Some observers believe North Korea is preparing to conduct its seventh nuclear test.
In 2006, when North Korea conducted its first nuclear test, Shinzo Abe and Shoichi Nakagawa said that Japan should also discuss atomic weapons.
Hearing this, then Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice flew in and said, "We will suppress the North's nuclear weapons. And we will guarantee the nuclear umbrella," and she restrained them.
But in the end, successive U.S. administrations, including the Bush administration, did nothing or could do nothing.
In the end, Abe's suggestion that "we should discuss nuclear sharing and nuclear sharing" became his last will. 
Recently, Taro Kono has come to the fore again.
When Kono met with U.S. Secretary of State Tillerson when he was Minister of Foreign Affairs, he said about the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), "I hope the U.S. will make positive efforts, including early ratification." Tillerson was absolutely astonished.
Tillerson must have been astonished, saying, "Is this guy insane?"
Kono is entirely unaware of Japan's position under the U.S. nuclear umbrella.
The memorial service by Yoshihide Suga at Abe's state funeral was quite a treat, but why would this Suga carry Taro Kono, an insignificant person, as a candidate for president?
Even though they are both based in Kanagawa, this is a kind of nepotism, isn't it?
He must have known that Abe had said "No, not Kono Taro" during the recent presidential election.
This article continues.
