“Again.”
How many more times must Okinawa say this?
Another woman has lost her life, and once again we hear promises of “stricter discipline” and “prevention.”
This is the reality of Okinawa as a U.S.-Japan military colony.
The US operates 800+ military bases around the world.
More than 100 are in Japan and Okinawa.
US bases are an extension of imperial war, which imposes hell on the occupied.
To end this hell, we must end the war. And close these bases.
Ever since U.S. troops landed here during WWII, its military has remained on our islands. For 81 years, we have endure crimes and accidents, including rape and murder. Our drinking water has been contaminated, our land taken, and now other bases are being built. This is #Okinawa
