Classic Japanese. No dancing around or confusion about anti-semitism, just straight out asking the Israeli about recent war crimes.
Had the same as a Swiss guy living there: sure, everybody loves Roger Federer, but they also know about Nazi gold and the banking secret protecting dictatorships. And they just ask about it directly. Would never happen on Japanese topics though.
Yeah, it feels slightly tone-deaf for Japan to be doing this. It’s not quite as bad as the USA dong this but it is close
Japan is not doing this. A private business is.
IDF service is compulsory for Israeli citizens, so it was a legitimate question to ask.
Same with Turks
