I understand why Turkey is invested in genocide denialism but I've never gotten why it's so much more frothing-at-the-mouth Kill Bill-sirens obsessed with it than, say, the Abe regime.
Because Japanese denial is merely a hobby horse of factionalists within the LDP. The Japanese people as a whole don't really care because it doesn't affect their lives.I understood this part (and it's why I think the whole question of constitutional revision, however it ends up, is way more symbolic, both about the obvious and about the way the Abe regime goes about its business, than it is indicative of how Japan as a whole actually feels about war).
This was the (horrible, depressing) part I didn't understand. Thanks (and to Badger and ingemann!) for explaining.
