Many people gathered in front of the Prime
Minister’s Office in protest in the evening of March 12, 2018 after the
falsification of official documents was exposed. Many carried placards
expressing their anger against Prime Minister Abe, “Down with Abe”, “Abe
Cabinet is over”, and “Abe is the main culprit”. Some others had placards
saying, “Media, we are behind you”, supposedly showing their support to the
recent good job of the media about the disclosure of the scandal. One of the
participants clearly said, surprised of the increasing number of people, “Everyone
is so angry at Abe. There is no way that he will continue to be the prime
minister”. KAYAMA Rika, a psychiatrist, appealed, “Japanese society has leaned
to the right and been filled with hate speeches since Abe took office. The Abe
Administration has forcibly enacted bad laws such as the War Law. This time, he
is tainted with scandals. We are fed up with the Abe Administration that has
continued for 5 years. We demand Abe resign”. The most remarkable chant was “Down
with Abe and Aso (Finance Minister), rather than Sagawa (former Ministry of
Finance official and the former Commissioner of the National Tax Agency, involved
in the scandal)”. Our struggle to kick out Abe and Aso, the main culprits, has
started. (M)
「公文書改ざん」主犯の安倍と麻生は許さない!〜3.12 官邸前緊急大抗議
公文書改ざんが明らかになった3月12日夜。官邸前には怒りの市民が続々と集まり、歩道はぎっしり埋まり長い列がつくられた。呼びかけは旧シールズのメンバーら。プラカードには「安倍はやめろ」「アベ内閣は終わり」「トカゲの頭
主犯安倍」など安倍への怒り一色だった。なかに「メディアよ
がんばれ」のプラカードもあった。この間頑張ってきたメディアへのエールに違いない。ある参加者は続々と増える人に驚き、「完全にみんな頭にきているね。安倍の命脈はほとんどない」と断言した。香山リカさんはスピーチで「安倍になってから世の中が右翼的になりヘイトスピーチが街に溢れかえった。戦争法など悪法を無理やり通した。そして今回のモリカケ。5年続いた安倍政権にこれ以上我慢できない。私たちの手で安倍政権にやめてもらおう」と訴えた。ひときわ目立ったコールは「佐川じゃなくて安倍・麻生がやめろ!」だった。いよいよ主犯の安倍と麻生をひきづり下ろす闘いが始まった。(M)
