Krazy Koizumi

So Japanese Prime Minister Koizumi visited the Yasukuni Shrine Monday. This controversial visit happens yearly and always causes mixed emotions. The Shrine is dedicated to the fallen soldiers of Japans previous eras including some who led and committed atrocities during the early 20th century. Check out the article and the shrines sight for a little more info and let me know what you think. Just a visit in memory of fallen soldiers or blatant disrespect to the victims or something else completely ?
