Japanese denial angers 'comfort woman'
翻译原文:
An Australian woman forced into sex slavery in World War II says she's trembling with anger at a Japanese government advertisement denying the war-time atrocities.
Adelaide resident Jan Ruff-O'Herne says she has lost all respect for the Japanese government after the advertisement appeared in the Washington Post newspaper.
The ad, signed by 44 members of Japan's parliament, seeks to share "the truth with the American people" about the 200,000 "comfort women" who were driven into brothels during WWII.
"No historical document has ever been found by historians or research organisations that positively demonstrates that women were forced against their will into prostitution by the Japanese army," the ad said under the title, in bold letters, "THE FACTS".
Ms Ruff-O'Herne said she was appalled by the advertisement.
"My esteem for the Japanese government has completely gone down the drain," she said.
"It's absolutely appalling, I'm trembling with anger.
"I just can't believe it, I am so angry that after all these years and so much proof they could do that."
