Busan-Comfort-Women-junk

---

The South Korean government has no control over mobs refusing to remove the Comfort Women statue in Busan City.
It is a violation of Japan-Korean Agreement and also of 1963 UN Vienna Convention on Consular Relations.
The offensive act irritates the Japanese government for very good reason.

 

Once again the South Korean electorate have demonstrated their total disdain for a representative democracy thought to be their form of government.

The Korean clowns who support their fictitious version of the Comfort Women story placed a hunk of junk Comfort Women statue in Busan, South Korea.  The city officials removed it because it was done without securing the proper permits.  Really?  Soon afterwards South Korea’s democracy jumped into action and the mobs in the streets demanded the statue be returned.  Mob rule in South Korea seems to be normal where representative democracy is the exception. 

  Busan city officials cowering in fear of the mob returned the statue to its original location.  No the hunk of junk was not placed in a junk yard; it was placed across the street from the Japanese Consulate.  This offensive act by both the mobs and Busan city officials irritated the Japanese government for very good reason. 

Their childish behavior was a violation of an agreement between South Korean President Park, and Japan’s Prime Minister Abe.  The violation continues:  It also violated the 1963 United Nations Vienna Convention on Consular Relations.

The Convention in Article 31, paragraph 3, and Article 59 clearly state the host country “shall take steps” to prevent an “impairment of its dignity,” in reference to consular post.  This insult and violation is not isolated to Busan, because it started in Seoul.

Across the street from the Japanese Embassy in Seoul a junk pile was placed masquerading as a Comfort Women statue.  In 2015 President Park and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe came to an agreement with Mr. Abe offering a “sincere” apology in reference to the Comfort Women, and pledged around 929,002,000 Japanese Yen to a Comfort Women fund.

In returned President Park agreed to stop vilifying Japan over this issue and work to remove that junk statue across the street from the Japanese Embassy.  That statue is still there and a new one erected in Busan.  So much for having agreements with an elected official in South Korea.  Next time perhaps when coming to an agreement on a government level in South Korea, it should be done not with an elected official, but with the mobs in the streets. 

The South Korean mobs refused to remove the Seoul statue and placed a second one in Busan, exploiting the political instability of President Park’s administration due to a scandal she is in the middle of.  There once again the mobs ruled.  President Park offered to resign because of the sandal; however the mobs demanded she remain in office to be impeached in disgrace.  The mobs won and they rule.

Democracies run by mobs do not last.  These mobs feeling bold are undermining their representative democracy to the delight of their Communist adversaries to their north.  Shame on them for their dishonorable behavior.
