No more bullshit on Okinawans! Protest action starts in furor in front of the Prime Minister's official residence
At 10:30 a.m., April 6, protest action by angry Okinawans started in front of the Prime Minister's official residence. Mr. Minoru Kinjo, a sculptor (photo), grabbed a microphone. "Mr. Eisaku Sato received a Nobel Peace Prize and 120 million yen for deceiving Okinawans through the secret pact incident. He also said in one occasion, 'While the Okinawa matter is solved, we are still in the post-war time.' No kidding. Shameless is he. He fooled Okinawans with bullshits. The new administration is acting selfishly as well, flattering Okinawans with references to 'kind Okinawans,' 'the blue ocean," and local cuisine like Goya-champuru and sightseeing spots and, behind the scene, still pursuing the scheme to transfer the base within Okinawa. Absolutely never we will allow it." Around the sit-in that day, the gross number of supporters reached 400, joining the appeal with chants and songs. This action will continue up to April 9. The protesters are calling for gross participation of 3000. (M) videos at UnionTube and OurPlanet-TV
「沖縄の人間をなめとるのか!」~官邸前で怒りの抗議行動はじまる
4月6日午前10時半より、首相官邸前で沖縄県民の怒りの抗議行動が始まった。彫刻家の金城実さん(写真)がマイクを握った。「密約事件で、佐藤栄作氏は沖縄県民を騙してノーベル平和賞をもらい1億2千万円をもらった。佐藤氏は“沖縄が返還されない限り戦後は終わらない”と言ったことがある。笑わすんじゃねえ。恥知らずめ。沖縄の人間をなめとる。新政権も、やさしい沖縄人・青い海・ゴーヤチャンプルなどの観光や料理のイメージでおだてておいて、その裏で、県内移設だとかゴチャゴチャ勝手なことをやっている。絶対に許さない」。この日は延べ400人が行動に駆けつけコールや歌で訴えた。行動は9日まで続くが、計3千人の参加を呼びかけている。(M)
