            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those that might not know, the US created the LDP (Liberal Democratic Party) at the end of WW2 by simply rebranding the fascist war criminals and Yakuza as a "legitimate" political party that was directly under control of US imperial interests.</p>
<p>The first Prime Minister of the LDP after consolidating power was the Class A war criminal <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobusuke_Kishi" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Nobusuke Kishi</a> who was significantly responsible for the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comfort_woman" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">"Comfort Women"</a> sex slavery, genocide and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_731" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Unit 731</a> atrocities.  The LDP was financed by Yakuza money, diamonds and gold pillaged from China an other Japan-occupied territories.  Fascist Yakuza boss, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoshio_Kodama" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Yoshio Kodama</a> became the LDP's main financier, laundering blood money under the supervision of the United States.  This party has been in continuous power in Japan since 1955.</p>
<p>Japan, like West Germany, was never "de-nazified".  Those fascists have been kept in power By the US since WW2 to be used as military proxies for US imperialism.  Capitalism is in crisis and the US is collapsing, so the fascists prepare for war to solidify hegemonic power and open new markets.</p>
