Last June, Japan's ministry of education ordered editors of textbooks for use in senior high schools and down to revise the descriptions of Japanese aggression and atrocities committed during World War Ⅱ in an attempt to exonerate the country from its responsibility.
今年六月間，日本文部省運用「高級中學以下學校教科書檢定辦法」，強迫社會科教科書之編著者，將教科書中涉及日本在二次世界大戰中侵略行動之記述，在內容及用語上，都予以大幅度修改，有意為軍國主義者洗刷罪行，以推卸二次大戰發動侵略戰爭的責任。
