A lodging facility in Kyoto has drawn a protest from the Israeli Embassy in Tokyo for asking an Israeli man to sign a pledge that he had never been involved in war crimes.
If israel doesn’t like this treatment then they should stop the policy of forcing israeli citizens to serve in the israel genocide forces.
What’s the protest? “We don’t want to be pointed at when we commit war crimes” ?
The embassy thinks it is messed up to ask people if they committed war crimes.
This is ignoring they ask people from 10 different nations this question.

I don’t know why you are being down voted.
I love that the Japanese are treating Israeli’s as members of the apartheid genocidal state that they are.
Japan also hasn’t recognized or paid reparations for many of the horrendous war crimes they’ve committed themselves.
Both things can be true at the same time.
This right here is what I love about Japan.
When I was there a few years ago to snowboard, they had a “fuck you” policy to non-Japanese speakers in some towns because the Aussies basically run around rough shod and turn everything into a loud party.
Imagine being in a sleepy resort town while 7 dudes are walking down your cobbled street screaming about Ruggers, then one falls into the cold stream because they’re drunk, so a rescue team is sent out… On a weekly basis.
There’s simply a no more bullshit cap.
So, to be clear, you get how that’s more than a little bit fucked up, right?
To demonstrate, imagine a deep southern U.S town instituting an English-only policy and aggressively turning away for example Spanish or Arabic-speakers.
This is not something to be celebrated. Ban the thing you actually want to prevent instead of pushing through unmitigated xenophobia.

Yeah that’s called Tuesday in the rural south.
Correction, that’s a thursday. Tuesday is the cross burning. Wednesday is the driving around and entering stores with AR15’s day.
And every day that ends in Y is “shoot memorials to black people” day.
If you are referencing the image I think you are- that was debunked a good few years back. Can’t remember the link, but basically, it was a one off move by someone that got shared around facebook a bunch.
They replaced Emmett till’s signs so often they decided to use digital ones instead of physical.
