From BBC News:
But Tokyo says private companies, not the government, were responsible for the texts, and that it is up to individual school districts to decide which books they use.
A load of crap. I was chatting with Q in beijing over msn last night about the state of sino-japanese/sino-american affairs, rather enlightening as it usually is. A pity Q found out about the protests too late, otherwise he might have participated; and me too, if I were in beijing. Ah these reckless university youth, you must be saying. Student demonstrations never fail to be a good cause for governments to worry over.
