The National Socialist Japanese Workers Party (国家社会主義日本労働者党 Kokka Shakaishugi Nippon Rōdōsha-Tō), also known in German as Nationalsozialistische Japanische Arbeiterpartei (NSJAP),[2] is a small Japanese Neo-Nazi political party led by Kazunari Yamada.
History[edit]
The party maintains a website and a blog which includes praise for Adolf Hitler and the September 11 attacks. The insignia resembles a swastika and a Celtic cross.
The party made its first protest in 1988 targeting Israel's embassy to Japan as well as the Jewish community in Japan.[3] Throughout the early 1990s, members of the party assembled posters with swastikas calling for the expulsion of foreign workers from Japan.[4] The founder, Yamada, was interviewed by Vice for a documentary on uyoku dantai in Japan.[5]
Controversy[edit]
On 9 September 2014, pictures of Yamada, a Holocaust denier, with Sanae Takaichi and Tomomi Inada from 2011 surfaced online. Both Takaichi and Inada acknowledged being in the pictures, but denied supporting the party.[6][7] The photos have since been taken down from the party's website as of 13 October.[8]
