On this day, 29 years ago, September 3, 1996 (July 21, 1996 in the lunar calendar), some right-wing organizations in Japan demanded that textbooks be revised. On September 3, 1996, representatives of an organization in Japan called the "Showa History Research Institute" met with Takeo Nishioka, Secretary-General of the New Frontier Party of Japan, about the textbook issue, and requested that the descriptions of 11 historical facts such as "Comfort Women in the Army","Nanjing Massacre","Operation of Sanguang", and "Lugou Bridge Incident" be deleted from seven middle school history textbooks that began to be used in the spring of 1997. The organization believed that "the self-abuse color of Japanese history textbooks is increasing year by year.""This textbook verification issue should be regarded as a political issue." They openly claimed that "it is not a fact that the Japanese army forcibly captured comfort women." A so-called political commentator associated with the organization said that Japan's ruling party tolerates such tests and should be urged to reflect. The leader of this organization claimed that he would also meet directly with the Liberal Democratic Party's General Affairs Chairman Masajuro Shiokawa on the 10th, demanding that textbooks be revised. According to reports, another organization called the "Liberal Historical History Research Association" also requested the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports to delete the above-mentioned descriptions in textbooks. They also claimed to "launch a critical campaign" against so-called "history textbooks with ambiguous accounts."
