How I remember Pearl Harbor......
74 years ago of today, Japanese Imperial Navy attacked Pearl Harbor.
I would like to tell you how I remember Pearl Harbor....
This event lead Japanese people and Japanese Americans sent to concentration camps and in order to prove their loyalty to US, Japanese Americans had to go to war to fight with soldiers from their parents' mother
Country( most of them went to Europe. But a lot of Japanese Americans who can understand Japanese fight the war as intelligence in Pacific region.).
They literally chose to call themselves Americans to prove their loyalty and comprehend what they are doing. That brought decoupling between Japanese and Japanese Americans.
I had discussion regarding to this decoupling with my old Japanese American friend most recently.
Even nowadays, they, Japanese Americans strongly identify they are Americans not Japanese. I insisted Nationality-wise I totally agree with them. But I strongly insist we share heritage. Our traits as Japanese are coming from same background and it should not be forgotten. So I'm really actively working on getting rid of this decoupling and bringing common ground among Japanese and Japanese American society.
As I said, defects of history really still effecting all Japanese descendent.
But, on the other hand, we really do not try to discover how it was really like.
Are Japanese Imperial Navy were vicious and evil? Are they blood sucking evil bustard and Americans are like Super Heroes???
First off, I really want everyone to know, what is official statement of US government regarding to Pearl Harbor attack was.
If you google Pearl Harbor attack, you might end up Wikipedia page of Attack of Pearl Harbor and it describes Japan attacked Pearl Harbor without official declaration and they killed 68 civilians.
It's different from official statement of US government.
Real answer is exhibited at Pacific Aviation Museum in Pearl Harbor.
The museum is founded by US government. So you can consider as its official statement of The United State government.
Again, it is built by American tax payer's money.
I explain briefly what's said at there about this historical event;
" Reason why Japan made decision to attack Pearl Harbor, because they are against embargo of oil from US. US (Secretary of Defense, Cordell Hull) sent note to Japan to withdraw their legal occupation from parts of China.（it is officially called "Outline of Proposed Basis for Agreement Between the United States and Japan" and on top page, it's said "Strictly Confidential, Tentative and Without commitment.")
Japanese government made officially declaration of war. But Japanese Ambassy was holding farewell party of ambassador so they delayed to inform(Japanese Bureau of Foreign affairs is historically making this kind of mistakes).
But attack was made.
There are survivors from this attack. Their testimony is different from what's said in main land.
Certainly they lost their friends. But as soldiers, many of survivor admire how amazing Japanese pilots were. They really pin-pointed targets and they NEVER aimed civilians. Most of casualties of civilians are dead by Americans wrong shots. "
This statement was again made by US government.
This is the fact that anybody can find easily. If you are skeptic about what I said, I'm saying it's not state secret.
Go visit the museum.
My intention to post this is bringing fair view of WW II. Past 70 years, all the people in the world was lead by world's order made after WW II.
But I believe now, the order is slowly corrupting.
Before you make judgement toward my statement, please have a chance to go visit the museum and find the fact with your own eyes, ears and brain.
It's not about revision history.
I'm just giving you a chance to think about fairness.
History is changing every time people discover new
truth.

またとりあえず更新！？
いやー、最近仕事仕事の毎日。別に充実してないわけじゃないけど、やはり今までぼくのcreativityをサポートしてくれていた人たちやファンからは遠ざかってしまっている状態で、メールやFBでも、次のライブはいつ？？？なんて質問をたくさんいただいてる状態。別にサボってるわけじゃないんですけど、もともとは、何カ月か前に仕事を変えたのがきっかけで収入がダウンしてしまったのがきっかけで財政難に陥り、その立て直しに奔走していたというのが今までの経過です。お金と自分の関係について本当真剣に考えさせられました。試練があれば、やはりそれは人生の中で成長するる時期なんだなと改めて思いました。
まずは更新。
い
ということで、更新です。iPhoneでの更新は今回が初めてでもうてが行かれてしまってる状態。本当便利になりましたね。で、前回のブログで言ってたイベントは結局僕のバンドは不参加になりそれと交互してラウドネスの前座をやることになり、LA初ライブは思いの外大一番になり、話題を呼び、チケットもまあラウドネスにあやかってソールドアウトというとてもラッキーな結果になったんだけど、そこで知り合ったインベスターがツアーのサポートプラスツアーマネージャーを連れてきたはいいけど、がんになって昨年死んでしまいそれから活動が滞ってしまったということもありました。でも人生にはいろんなことがあって、今はそういう時期なんだと新しい曲創りに燃えてます。今年は5月ぐらいからツアーを開始しようと思ってます。こちらとfbでアップしてゆくので楽しみにしててください。
