Members of a bipartisan dietmen's league dubbed the "Meeting of Dietmen for Visiting Yasukuni Shrine" in Japan paid a collective visit to the Yasukuni Shrine on October 17.

Over 60 dietmen of the Liberal Democratic Party, Japan Restoration Party and national democratic party visited the shrine housing the name tablets of the war dead.

That day Prime Minister Ishiba and the new president of the LDP reportedly made offerings to it.

The disgraceful behaviour of politicians of the island country trying to repeat the crime-woven history of aggression by raising the spirit of militarism is arousing a firestorm of protest and criticism from the international community.
