Why haven't the honors been revoked?
Japan is a non-democratic country.
Kozo Iizuka received honors from the Japanese emperor.
Kozo Iizuka caused a fatal car accident resulting in the death of two people, and as a result of being convicted, his honors were revoked.
Kozo Iizuka was a bureaucrat at the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan and the chairman of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology.
Why hasn't Hideki Tojo had his honors revoked?
Japan is a non-democratic country.
[2]
Japan is a non-democratic country.
Both approving treaties and legislating domestic laws are powers of the National Diet.
That is, treaties and domestic laws cannot contradict each other.
(The powers of the National Diet are taught in junior high school).
Japan's wartime Premier Hideki Tojo was convicted as a war criminal by the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE, also known as the Tokyo Trial and the Tokyo War Crimes Tribunal) in 1946 and the Treaty of San Francisco (also called the Treaty of Peace with Japan) in 1951.
The Tokyo Trial and the Treaty of San Francisco are international treaties.
A treaty is enacted when the head of state signs it and when the National Diet approves it.
Since it is an important issue, a double-check system is adopted.
By the way, the Diet is the legislative branch.
Therefore, once the treaty is ratified by the National Diet, then domestic laws with the same content can automatically be enacted.
That is, Hideki Tojo, the Japanese wartime Premier, must be convicted as a criminal (war criminal) under Japanese domestic law as well.
However, there is no such discussion in Japan at all.
Therefore, Japan is a non-democratic country.
[3]
Japan preserves the system that existed before World War II in Japan.
Japan is a non-democratic country.
Formally, Japan's high-ranking honors are supposed to be awarded by the Japanese emperor.
However, in reality, there must be some kind of secret awards review committee.
The members of this secret awards review committee are likely to be composed of high-ranking bureaucrats, high-ranking politicians, high-ranking judges and high-ranking professors.
The members of this secret awards review committee are not made public.
For example, Hideki Tojo, a Japanese war criminal and wartime Premier, received honors from the Japanese emperor.
The honors have not been revoked.
[4]
Japanese people must ask the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family whether the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family are pro-immigrant or anti-immigrant.
Of course, Japanese people know the answer.
So, no Japanese people ask the emperor the question.
Japanese people must ask the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family whether the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family are right-wingers or left-wingers.
Of course, Japanese people know the answer.
So, no Japanese people ask the emperor the question.
If the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family are right-wingers, then the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family do not regret World War II.
If the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family are right-wingers, then the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family are fascists.
If the Japanese emperor and the Japanese imperial family are right-wingers, then the Japanese emperor system must be abolished immediately.
Of course, the Japanese emperor and his henchmen need to be sycophantic to the Japanese people, but the Japanese emperor and his henchmen want to be accepted by the world and lord over the world.
So, we can understand the answer before we hear the answer.
If the Japanese emperor's political activity and the Japanese imperial family's political activity must be banned, then of course, the Japanese emperor's official trip overseas and the Japanese imperial family's official trip overseas must be banned.
I am a left-winger and I am a communist.
I am more left-winger than the Japanese emperor and than the Japanese imperial family.
I am against the Japanese imperial system.
I am a left-winger and a communist.
Japanese people say "Japanese people support the Japanese emperor, and Japanese people are right-wingers".
So, I am pointing out the contradictions of Japanese people's assertions.

Kozo Iizuka
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kozo_Iizuka
Kozo Iizuka (June 1, 1931 – October 26, 2024) was a Japanese engineer who served as Director of the AIST and President of the International Measurement Confederation and Human Frontier Science Program among other positions.
Life and career
He was president of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology and vice-president of Kubota corporation.
While vice-president of Kubota, he also served as chairperson of a committee of the Science Council of Japan.
Higashi-Ikebukuro runaway car crash and trial
On April 19, 2019, while driving his car, he killed a woman and her child, who were on a bicycle, and injured nine pedestrians in what is called the Higashi-Ikebukuro runaway car crash.
Following the crash, special treatment of him by the police, legal system and media, due to his privileged position in society, drew much attention and criticism.
In spite of Iizuka having caused a fatal crash, he was not arrested.
Police stated that this was because Iizuka was injured at the scene and was elderly, and hence was not expected to run away or attempt to destroy evidence.
However, in similar crashes caused by elderly drivers that have occurred in Japan following Iizuka's, each and every suspect has been arrested almost immediately, regardless of their age and state of health.
This has led to widespread scrutiny and criticism of the police in Japan in regard to just how impartially they enforce the law.
One of the victim's parents started a campaign demanding that police prosecute Iizuka in line with normal practice, collecting 390,000 signatures. The petition was submitted to the National Police Agency of Japan.
Iizuka's 2015 medal, the Order of the Sacred Treasure for Administrative Services in International Trade and Industry, was revoked after he accepted a sentence of five years in prison.
Public response
The case drew an unusual amount of attention due to the leniency Iizuka was treated with, and criticism that he was being treated as a notional "upper-class citizen", to whom regular rules do not apply.
Many people pointed out that the Japanese police immediately arrest regular people, who are without such status or influence, but did not arrest Kozo Iizuka because of his social standing until pressured to do so by the public.
In analyzing the reactions to the incident, Toyo Keizai commentator Atsushi Manabe writes that Iizuka's words and actions after the crash "added fuel to the fire", and as a result the case represents to people how "unapologetic liars and coldblooded psychopaths succeed more than regular honest people, which goes against the zeitgeist of the common people".
Manabe further writes that this "victory of brazen shamelessness" represents a loss of morals, and is why people feel disgust and anger as well as a belief that the case represents how Japanese law no longer functions as it should, with criminals being able to get away with their crimes by using their privileged positions in society.

The International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE), also known as the Tokyo Trial and the Tokyo War Crimes Tribunal, was a military trial convened on April 29, 1946 to try leaders of the Empire of Japan for their crimes against peace, conventional war crimes, and crimes against humanity, leading up to and during World War II.
The IMTFE was modeled after the International Military Tribunal (IMT) at Nuremberg, Germany, which prosecuted the leaders of Nazi Germany for their war crimes, crimes against peace, and crimes against humanity.

Nuremberg trials
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_trials
The Nuremberg trials were held by the Allies against leaders of the defeated Nazi Germany for plotting and carrying out invasions of other countries across Europe and committing atrocities against their citizens in World War II.
Between 1939 and 1945, Nazi Germany invaded many countries across Europe, inflicting 27 million deaths in the Soviet Union alone.
Proposals for how to punish the defeated Nazi leaders ranged from a show trial (the Soviet Union) to summary executions (the United Kingdom).
In mid-1945, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States agreed to convene a joint tribunal in Nuremberg, occupied Germany, with the Nuremberg Charter as its legal instrument.
Between 20 November 1945 and 1 October 1946, the International Military Tribunal (IMT) tried 22 of the most important surviving leaders of Nazi Germany in the political, military, and economic spheres, as well as six German organizations.
The purpose of the trial was not just to convict the defendants but also to assemble irrefutable evidence of Nazi crimes, offer a history lesson to the defeated Germans, and delegitimize the traditional German elite.

なぜ勲章を剥奪されないのか?

なぜ勲章を剥奪されないのか?
日本は非民主主義国家だ。
イイヅカコウゾウはテンノーから勲章をもらった。
人身事故を起こし、2人死亡させ有罪となった結果、勲章は剥奪された。
イイヅカコウゾウはケイザイサンギョウ省のカンリョウで、産業技術総合研究所理事長。
なぜトージョーヒデキは勲章を剥奪されないのか?
日本は非民主主義国家だ。
[2]
日本は非民主主義国家。
条約を承認するのも、国内法を作るのも、どちらも国会の権能。
つまり、条約と国内法が矛盾することはありえない。
(国会の権能は、中学校で習う)。
東京裁判およびサンフランシスコ講和条約で、日本の戦時の首相のトージョーヒデキは、戦犯となっている。
東京裁判およびサンフランシスコ講和条約は国際条約。
条約は、元首が調印し、国会で承認することで成立する。
重要な問題なので、二重チェックにしてあるわけだ。
ところで、国会は立法府。
したがって、条約が批准されたら、自動的に同じ内容の国内法も成立できる。
つまり、日本の戦時の首相のトージョーヒデキは、日本の国内法でも犯罪者(戦犯)じゃないとおかしい。
しかし日本では、そういう議論がまったくない。
したがって、日本は非民主主義国家。
[3]
日本は、第2次大戦以前の制度を温存している。
日本は非民主主義国家だ。
日本の高位の勲章は、形式上は、テンノーがや与えることになっている。
しかし実際には、非公表の、叙勲審査委員会のようなものが存在するはず。
この叙勲審査委員会のメンバーは恐らくは、高位の教授、高位の裁判官、高位の官僚、高位の政治家などから構成されているはず。
この叙勲審査委員会のメンバーは非公表だ。
例えば、日本の戦犯で戦時の首相のトージョーヒデキは、テンノーから勲章をもらっている。
その勲章は剥奪されていない。
[4]
日本人は、テンノーおよびテンノー一族に、移民に賛成か反対か、聞いてくるべきだ。
もちろん、日本人は答えを知っている。
だから、誰もテンノーにこの質問をしない。
日本人は、テンノーおよびテンノー一族に、テンノーは左翼かテンノーは右翼か、聞いてくるべきだ。
もちろん、日本人は答えを知っている。
だから、誰もテンノーにこの質問をしない。
もしもテンノーおよびテンノー一族が右翼ならば、テンノーは第2次大戦を反省していない。
もしもテンノーおよびテンノー一族が右翼ならば、テンノーはファシストだ。
もしもテンノーおよびテンノー一族が右翼ならば、テンノー制度を今すぐ廃止すべきだ。
テンノーおよびその取り巻きは、もちろん日本人にゴマをすらないといけないが、テンノーおよびその取り巻きは世界からも気に入られたいし世界に対しても威張りたい。
テンノーおよびその取り巻きの答えは、聞く前からわかる。
テンノーおよびテンノー一族は政治活動をすべきでないというのなら、その通りだ、テンノーおよびテンノー一族が外遊するのも禁止されるべきだ。
私は左翼で共産主義者だ。
私は、テンノーおよびテンノー一族よりも、左翼だ。
私はテンノー制度に反対だ。
私は共産主義者で左翼だ。
日本人が「日本人はテンノーを支持していて、日本人は右翼だ」、と言う。
だから、私は、日本人の主張の矛盾を指摘している。
