The Old Order of Power Politics Reverberates!

Yes. You are right. Japan is right. The U.S. who cuddles, sides with, and pats Japan on the shoulder, is also right. All the rights you claim over us Korean people and our territory are also right. Yes. the small country of ours is up for grabs. Everything here is yours. Come here and take all you like, Tokdo and the like. We are speechless. We are powerless. We know power precedes logic. Law? The reason of the state? The international law? Forget them all. Come on, you Goizumi of Japan, go and take the helmsmanship of the U.N. Security Council (with the endorsement of Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice of the U.S. and Kofi Annan of the U.N.). You know and all the rest of the world community also realize that there are no huddles in the way for you to take the Tokdo islets. (Your mighty lobbying has worked in Africa and in the other countries.) Declare to the U.N. community that the Korean peninsula belongs to you that had once done to you) We are not afraid. We are not angry. We have lived through all the torments and brutalities inflicted under the evil Axis Powers of Hitler's Germany, Tojo's Japan and Mussolini's Italy. We are still alive and we'll live on. We'll be rolling and rolling like nameless rocks. We'll hold on like moss and survive and see the day--the Day of Thunder and Lightning and the peoples of Evil scream scorched to death and into ashes. As a grassroots people in this global village, I beseech Uncle Sam in a small voice unheard of, "Beware of Japan!" The piracy in the evil lot had not died with Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They are the Devil incarnation of Tojo's militarism. They are already imagining themselves on the ethereal route to the Second Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. From time immemorial, they have never lived in harmony with their neighbors. They have paid indebtedness with enmity to the utmost degree. They have been the most ungreateful lot on earth. They have repaid Korea's transmission of civilization with cruel invasions--pillagings, plunderings and rapings. They have also repaid America's enlightenment efforts including the modern civilization and culture with Pearl Harbor attacks.
