Minshuto as Jiminto? Japan as Italy? Politics is now so dirty and corrupt that the only possibility is to rely on the (alleged) palingenesis court? The arrest of three former "loyal" Ichiro Ozawa of the secretaries (one of which is now in the interim parliament) may represent a serious threat to the current government? In front of the scandals (a little 'installed, I am convinced that soon deflated) that are involving the Prime Minister Hatoyama (for a portion of the inheritance unreported) and the "shogun" Ichiro Ozawa, a series of private financing for "borderline" as objectionable As common in the political world indigenous, it is worth perhaps do some 'clarity. Especially for those who do not speak Japanese (but is not that the local newspapers eccellino, when the completeness and neutrality, we are now at the levels of both insulted Italian press) are forced to eat the ridiculous English editions of the Yomiuri, Mainichi and Asahi. Really non-existent or misleading. I suggest a ride on the Internet: even the Chinese press (sic) in English provides a more comprehensive coverage (and understandable) on the events in recent days.
Take this newspaper of Brunei, for example. It does not seem very clear and comprehensive as to what you have read the English press in Japan? Read for yourself:

But back to Ozawa and his legal problems. On Saturday, the Congress of the Democratic Party (Curious: in Italy the Congress party are covered by live TV, especially when it comes to large parties, this is not no one noticed it. How many of you knew How many of you I have read in the newspapers?) Ozawa sought (and obtained, although it was not provided) the word. He 's gone on stage and played a short but very well articulated speech. They are making a vacuum around me - he said, summing up a bit 'his thoughts, Ozawa - but in reality they are trying to hit our government. The government chosen by the citizens. But do not pop up. At the time I left the presidency, but now I resign as secretary. We promised to change the country. We will do it. Will also change this perverse system that allows judges to interfere with, alter, and finally to subvert, the choices of the electorate. Sometimes bold, sometimes menacing. It seemed the synthesis of Moro, Craxi and the current Knight: we will not prosecute, what do they do it all, break the backs of the judges. It appears, but it is not. Ozawa is More, not Craxi (if anything, looks like Andreotti, as a cunning and buoyancy) and above is not Berlusconi. Ozawa, who is in politics fin dalla più tenera età, faceva da portaborse al mitico Kakuei Tanaka, negli anni '70) critica la magistratura giapponese a proposito, Berlusconi a sproposito. La magistratura giapponese NON E' INDIPENDENTE, quella italiana sì. Ovviamente molti voi la penseranno diversamente, ma io mi riferisco all'aspetto formale: in Italia la Costituzione ha previsto, e sinora nessuno si sogna di abolirlo, il Consiglio Superiore della Magistratura, organo supremo di "autocontrollo". In Giappone no. Per cui la magistratura "dipende", in tutto e per tutto, dal governo ed in particolare dal Ministero della Giustizia. Nomine, trasferimenti, provvedimenti disciplinari: tutto fa capo al ministero. Aggiungete il fatto che in questo paese non esiste l'immunità Parliamentary (or rather, the parliamentarians are "immune" only when Parliament is in session. When Parliament is "closed", the parliamentarians were arrested. In fact, the poor Tomohiro Ishikawa, the former lackeys of Ozawa, whose loyalty was rewarded with a nomination reinforced, whose arrest warrant was signed Dec. 12, was arrested Jan. 7, when the Parliament was still on vacation ...) and you'll understand how easy it is to "interfere" and perhaps "subvert , "in the political landscape.
At this point, however, say, fine, but the government there is now the Democratic Party ... if it's true what you say, why prosecutors are targeting just the more prominent del partito al governo? Allora la magistratura giapponese di fatto non solo è "indipendente" , ma anche coraggiosa...
Ineccepibile osservazione. Ma il punto è che il PD giapponese (a differenza di quello italiano, nato con altre premesse) rappresenta davvero una novità. In tutti i sensi. Innanzitutto, è la prima volta che va al governo. E un po' per scelta, un po' per inesperienza, un po' per questione di "tempi tecnici", non ha ancora potuto - forse voluto - esercitare appieno l'annunciato "spoil system". O meglio, ha preferito cominciare da altri settori, considerati prioritari: l'economia, la politica estera, la sanità e gli affari sociali. Nel settore giustizia Hatoyama - e questa è una prova che non fears that much about the judiciary - was limited to appoint a minister upright and high-profile lawyer and champion of human rights Keiko Chiba. To think that everything - including the best way to abolish the death penalty, starting, meanwhile, from applying the de facto moratorium on executions - except to "tame" the judiciary. Which is still represented, especially with regard to the attorneys general, by men of the past regime. E 'therefore absolutely logical and "politically" understandable that these prosecutors are appointed and promoted in the past, worried (perhaps without reason) for their future, are now sensitive to the pressures of the old leaders of the Liberal Democrat party, che vedono nella "via giudiziaria" una delle poche, forse l'unica, chance di sovvertire la scelta dell'elettorato e tornare al governo. Tutto questo va fatto, se va fatto (ma non si farà) in fretta: entro i prossimi sei mesi. A luglio infatti si vota per metà del Senato, e se Ichiro Ozawa manterrà la promessa di vincere anche queste elezioni il controllo del Parlamento del Minshuto diverrà assoluto. Non solo non ci sarà più bisogno dei due piccoli partiti che assieme al Partito Democratico formano il cosiddetto "Ulivo a mandorla" (Partito Socialdemocratico e Nuovo Partito del Popolo), ma è molto probabile che a quel punto la "Balena Gialla", il Jiminto, finisca per spaccarsi/sciogliersi, dando vita ad una nuova (e benvenuta) formazione.
A mio avviso, Ozawa la spunterà ancora una volta. Certo, è difficile solidarizzare con il personaggio. Eroi e vittime normalmente debbono essere belli, simpatici, giovani e possibilmente biondi.Ispirare fiducia, odorare di onestà, se non santità. Ozawa è esattamente il contrario di tutto ciò: smaneggione, arrogante, saccente, voltagabbana. Secondo un recente sondaggio su una rivista giapponese, di gran lunga il più "antipatico" personaggio politico. A differenza del "furbetto" Horie-mon, il giovane tycoon osannato (e poi abbandonato) dall'ex premier Koizumi che dopo aver tentato di scalare l'establishment finanziario dell'Impero was arrested, thrown into solitary confinement for six months and then sentenced to six months in prison in a show trial in which Italy would not exceed the pre-trial phase even at the time of Di Pietro, is neither young nor cool. But justice, here as elsewhere, should be independent from the abbot, and looking from the 'smell. " If one is not a saint, is said to be a criminal. And if a "crime" is committed - and repeatedly - for more people (as in the case in question, which concerns the financing of "private" parties and individual politicians) should pursue them all justice. Or do like our Prime Minister: withdrawing the crime (see the accounting fraud). As long as the boat goes.
For further useful examination (in Japanese ...)
