NYTレビュー「天皇の名の下に」



30万人が殺され最初の6週間で二万人の女性が強姦されたレイプ・オブ・ナンキン・・・を検証するのは本サイトの主旨ではないが、南京事件と慰安婦を結びつける論調は多い。これもその一つで、推定20万人の、主に朝鮮人からなる女性を戦地買春宿で働くことを「日本政府」が「強制」したと書かれている。またこれは「組織的」なオペレーションだったと。

「組織的」「強制(性)」は、日本の強制連行派が旗色の悪くなった強制連行説を強弁する為に多用した言葉である。バイアスのかかった情報が、外ではなく日本国内から発信されて来たのが、慰安婦騒動に限らず日本の歴史問題全般の特徴なのかもしれない。

ニューヨークタイムズ紙の映画レビュー(In the Name of the Emperor)。

In the Name of the Emperor (1995)

A documentary on the Rape of Nanjing which took place in 1937 when Japanese Imperial troops invaded Nanjing (aka Nanking) then the capital of China. Survivors of the massacre estimate that about 300,000 were killed and 20,000 women were raped and killed in the first six weeks of the Japanese occupation. Because of these rampant rapes and the alarming spread of veneral diseases among the soldiers, the Japanese government began the systematic operation of the now-infamous "comfort stations", forcing women to serve in military brothels. By the end of the war, an estimated 200,000 women, mostly Koreans, had been shipped as "war supplies" to serve as "comfort women" in Japanese military stations all across the occupied territories, from Manchuria to New Guinea.

表彰される慰安婦



元日本軍慰安婦ファン・クムジャとイ・オクソンが李明博大統領から表彰された。財産を公共の福祉の為に寄付した功績が認められた。ファン・クムジャの寄付のニュースに関しては以前のエントリー参照。



李明博大統領が15日大統領府で開かれた「分かち合いと奉仕の主人公褒賞」の行事で生涯に集めた財産1億ウォンを寄付した日本軍慰安婦被害者ファン・クムジャ氏に国民勲章椿章を歩いてくれている。 イ大統領はこの日行事で「分かち合いと奉仕の美しい香りが全国津々浦々に広がることを願う」と明かした。 褒賞受賞者は国民勲章7人、国民褒章9人、大統領表彰5人、国務総理表彰3人...

이명박 대통령이 15일 청와대에서 열린 ‘나눔과 봉사의 주인공 포상’ 행사에서 평생 모은 재산 1억원을 기부한 일본군 위안부 피해자 황금자씨에게 국민훈장 동백장을 걸어주고 있다. 이 대통령은 이날 행사에서 “나눔과 봉사의 아름다운 향기가 전국 곳곳에 퍼지기를 바란다”고 밝혔다. 포상 수상자는 국민훈장 7명, 국민포장 9명, 대통령 표창 5명, 국무총리 표창 3명이다. 최고 등급인 국민훈장 무궁화장은 아프리카 수단에서 의료봉사활동을 펼치다 지난해 숨진 고 이태석 신부에게 돌아갔다.

박동욱 기자 = 이명박 대통령이 15일 청와대에서 열린 국민이 직접 뽑은 '나눔과 봉사의 주인공'포상식 및 오찬에서 일본군 위안부 피해자로 2천만원을 보은군민장학회에 기부한 이옥선(81) 할머니에게 국민포장을 수여하고 있다.




イ・オクソンに関して、先月のニュースから・・

家の前の門に太極旗を掲揚して愛国精神を強調して有名税をせい減らしたイ・オクソン(女・81・写真・報恩郡(ポウングン)、俗離山面(ソンニサンミョン)社内リ)氏が政府褒賞国民推薦国民褒章受賞者に選ばれた。

国民推薦褒賞制は難しい環境で奉仕と寄付、先行を持続実践した隠れた功労者を国民の手で発掘して政府次元で褒賞するために導入した制度だ。 イ氏は日本軍慰安婦被害者で政府の基礎生活需給金と女性部が慰安婦被害者にあたえる生活安定支援金などを節約して一生集めた全財産2000万ウォンを報恩郡(ポウングン)民奨学会に寄付した。

イ氏は幼い時難しい生活環境で学習の夢をあきらめなければならなかっただけでなく慰安婦被害によってひっそりと静まって生涯を生きていくべきである痛みがあったが“国が富強にするなら人材を育てなければならなくて、それでもう二度と国を失う不幸がないように人材を育てなければならない”面人材養成に強い情熱を現わした。

今でもイ氏は学習に対する情熱で読書と文を書くのに熱中するなど学習を継続している。

집 앞 대문에 태극기를 게양하며 애국정신을 강조해 유명세를 탓던 이옥선(여·81·사진·보은군 속리산면 사내리)씨가 정부포상 국민추천 국민포장 수상자로 선정됐다.


국민추천 포상제는 어려운 환경에서 봉사와 기부, 선행을 지속 실천한 숨은 공로자를 국민의 손으로 발굴해 정부 차원에서 포상하기 위해 도입한 제도다. 이씨는 일본군 위안부 피해자로 정부의 기초생활수급금과 여성부가 위안부 피해자에게 주는 생활안정지원금 등을 절약하여 평생 모은 전 재산 2000만원을 보은군민장학회에 기부했다.


이씨는 어린시절 어려운 생활환경으로 배움의 꿈을 접어야 했을 뿐만 아니라 위안부 피해로 인해 남몰래 숨죽여 평생을 살아가야 하는 아픔이 있었지만 “나라가 부강하려면 인재를 키워야 하고, 그래서 두 번 다시 나라를 잃는 불행이 없도록 인재를 키워야 한다”면 인재양성에 강한 열정을 나타냈다.


지금도 이씨는 배움에 대한 열정으로 독서와 글쓰기에 열중하는 등 배움을 이어가고 있다.

集団暴行停学処分 逆転無罪



被害者の訴えが無視されるような社会であってはならない。しかし、一方で被害者の証言を疑う事を「セカンド・レイプ」だと言って反論を許さないフェミニストも問題である。痴漢冤罪事件というものも、現実に被害者を出しているのである。

集団暴行の停学処分無効=「女子学生の同意あった」-京都地裁

女子学生に対する集団準強姦(ごうかん)容疑で逮捕され、不起訴処分となった京都教育大の男子学生6人のうち4人が、大学の無期限停学処分の取り消しなどを求めた訴訟の判決が15日、京都地裁であった。杉江佳治裁判長は「女子学生の明確な同意があった」として、暴行の事実はなかったと認定。停学処分を無効とした上で、大学側に1人10万円の慰謝料の支払いなどを命じた。

杉江裁判長は、大学は女子学生の保護を重視する一方で、男子学生らの言い分を考慮しなかったと指摘。今年4月まで処分見直しの検討をしていなかったとして、長期にわたって著しく不利益な処分を科したと結論付けた。

4人は2009年2月、他の2人とともに、京都市の居酒屋で開かれた体育学科の送別会で、酒に酔って抵抗できなかった女子学生を店の空き部屋に連れ込み、集団暴行したとして逮捕された後、不起訴処分とされた。6人は「女子学生は泥酔状態ではなく、合意の上だった」と容疑を否認していた。

京都教育大企画広報課の話 早急に判決内容を詳細に検討した上で、今後の方針を決定する。

沖縄の朝鮮人慰安婦写真を林博史発見(2005年)



2005年の琉球新報の社説。歴史の暗部?

「慰安婦」写真・資料が物語る歴史の暗部

60年前の歴史の暗部を照らし出す貴重な写真が見つかった。
8月1日に東京に開館する「女たちの戦争と平和資料館」(西野瑠美子館長)が、旧越来村(現・沖縄市)の収容所キャンプ・コザで撮影された朝鮮人「慰安婦」の写真を公開した。
同館は戦時下での軍隊による性暴力に関する資料を展示する日本初の資料館で、写真は林博史関東学院大学教授が昨年8月、米国国立公文書館で発見した。
撮影時期は1945年10月ごろとみられ、カメラに視線を向けている7人の女性が写っている。いずれも夏物の服装だ。
歴史にかかわる資料に対し、安易な想像は慎まなければならないが、女性たちの姿は白い歯がこぼれ、ほほえみを浮かべているように見える。少なくとも、おびえているふうに見えないのは明白だ。
資料性を高めているのは写真説明が付いている点で、英文で「日本軍によって沖縄に連れてこられた」と明記されている。
女性たちについて朝鮮人「慰安婦たち」と説明し、「11月に集められ、朝鮮に引き揚げた。軍政府にとって問題の種だった」とも記されている。
あらゆる事象は光と影から成り立つ。歴史とて例外ではない。影の部分を覆い隠したがるのは人の心理の常ともいえ、歴史分野ではしばしば政治も介入する。
従軍慰安婦の言葉は教科書から消えた。文部科学省は「慰安婦の存在は否定しないが、従軍慰安婦という言葉は当時はなかった」との立場を取る。
従軍慰安婦を特集したNHKのテレビ番組改編問題では、政治的圧力の有無をめぐって朝日新聞とNHKが鋭く対立した。
同資料館は近く、発掘された写真を基に韓国の政府機関・強制動員真相委員会に7人の消息を依頼する。西野館長は「申し出てくれる方がいれば、沖縄で一緒に足跡をたどる調査をしたい」と語る。
慰安婦問題は、韓国や中国との関係にも影を落としている。写真が解き明かす「歴史の真実」に期待したい。

慰安婦の母は自殺?ティファニー・ション監督



後回しにしようかと思ったが、一応記事だけは紹介しておこう。日本語メディアでも紹介されるようになった慰安婦問題に光を当てたドキュメンタリーを製作中のティファニー・ションに関する記事。

読んで分かるように、彼女の語っているイメージは古い。恐らく韓国でも最近はこんな事を言っていないだろう。韓国の慰安婦研究が日本から20年遅れている(故意に遅らせている気配もある)とすれば、アメリカ・カナダは10年前の韓国のレベルといったところか。お決まりの、「これは現在の問題でもある!」も。

ションは、目標としていた5万ドルの内、すでに4万7千ドルの寄付を集めることに成功したという(その後の報道で目標額を突破したことが明らかにされた)。「多くの慰安婦が自殺しようとした」「娘を連行された母親たちの中には自殺した者もいた」・・・ほとんど都市伝説レベルの話を語っている。

Filmmaker tells stories of 'comfort women'

While on a study tour to Taiwan in 2009, Toronto filmmaker Tiffany Hsiung learned about an oft-overlooked element of the Second World War that changed her life forever.
Like most people, Hsiung was unaware of the "comfort women" who were taken from their homes and treated as sex slaves by soldiers throughout Asia during the war. Once she learned about the practice and the horrors those women faced, she decided she had to do something to shed light on the atrocities committed.

She set out to make a film, dubbed Within Every Woman (www.wewoman.org), to educate people about their plight, taking three extra months after her planned tour ended to speak with women who have been forced to live with the memory of their slavery.

Hsiung said she was shocked to learn that more than 200,000 girls were forced into sexual slavery, some as young as nine years old.

"A lot of them never even knew what sex was when they were forced into it," the filmmaker said.

Many committed suicide when they were captured rather than submit to rape by soldiers, while the mothers of some killed themselves after their daughters were taken.

For those who survived, living with the shame and guilt associated with their abuse has been a horrifying ordeal. Due to social taboos, many did not feel comfortable telling others of the sexual abuse they faced and were forced to bear their pain in silence.

"For a lot of women, it was years and years of self-imprisonment, not being able to share these details with their own families," Hsiung said. "Some were taken for a period of two to three weeks, four months, five months, to as long as two to three years. If you can survive being a comfort woman for two or three years and try to find a life after that, it's incredible."

Within Every Woman focuses on the stories of three women in detail and offers a greater overview on the use of "comfort women" in several Asian countries throughout the war. While the film looks at events during the Second World War, Hsiung noted the stories can have an impact on the lives of people even today.

"This may have happened 70 years ago but even today, sexual violence is still kept in darkness," she said. "I hope this helps a lot of young women come forward and not wait to talk about it if they've had to deal with sexual violence."

Hsiung, a graduate of Jarvis Collegiate Institute and Ryerson University, grew up in downtown Toronto in the Yonge and College streets area.

Her university thesis, Binding Borders, has earned accolades including the William F. Whites Equipment Grant Award, the Best Toronto Focus Film Award and the People's Choice Award at the 2007 Cabbagetown Film Festival.

The filmmaker is currently looking for funding to help share the stories of the former "comfort women," and has taken to the Internet to raise the $50,000 it will take to complete the project.

As of press time Tuesday, she had raised more than $47,000 of the $50,000 she needed at a fundraising website (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lucyzhao/within-every-woman-the-documentary-film) and hopes to raise the rest by the end of day Thursday, June 30.

Hsiung said the support she has received has reinforced the importance of her work.

"It's really hard to get funding for a project like this, but the online campaign shows me that this film needs to be made," she said.
