APTSJW Greets VP Al Gore in Silicon Valley
Alliance for Preserving the Truth of Sino-Japanese War
Press Release: April 29, 1996 From: Ignatius Ding Date: Mon, 29 Apr 1996 15:24:22 -0700

What: Representatives of APTSJW will meet with Vice President Al Gore, Jr. in a private reception during a local fundraising event for the Democratic National Committee.

Where: Home of George and Judith Marcus in Los Altos Hills, California.

When: 6:30-8:00PM, April 29, 1996 (Monday).

Mr. Gore will be the guest of honor for the evening. He will listen and exchange information with local political, business, and community leaders in several one- on-one private sessions.

APTSJW has prepared a whitepaper expressing its grave concern over the announcement of the expanded U.S.-Japanese joint security alliance during President Clinton's recent visit this month. The announcement indicates U.S. administration's support of the expansion of Japan's military capability and its role in the region - a development that will have certain negative and serious consequences.

APTSJW will also inform Mr. Gore its objection to American government's support of Japan's attempt to seek a permanent seat in the U.N. Security Council before it will formally apologize and pay atonements for its atrocious acts during the Sino-Japanese War.

* "I am compelled to comment on the posting to Dead Fukuzawa Society by Victor Fic, relaying Ignatius Ding's mail to Mr. Ralph Blumenthal about the invitation to Iris Chang to visit Hillary Clinton at the White House."

* "Ignatius Ding announced to NYT reporter Ralph Blumenthal that Iris Chang had been invited to the White House to brief the clueless and utterly naive Hillary Clinton about Japan's war crimes."

* "For anybody advancing any cause relevant to war crimes or Asian politics I urge the utmost caution in dealing with all politicians in general and in particular with Hillary Clinton and anyone associated with her."

* "This is where I really clamped down on my nose, the smell was overpowering, and I urge DFS readers not to be so easily taken in by such reports of naivete in the White House."

* "If Mrs. Clinton is that dumb, or wants to pretend that she is, then Iris Chang might as well get Hillary all fired up and use her. Hillary will certainly use Iris at any opportunity."

* "If the Chinese-American community can pull this off, more power to them. The last time I checked, Hillary Clinton had alienated large numbers of Jewish voters in the State of New York, supporting instead Palestinian causes and snubbing Israel in her travels. In the end, I think Jewish voters in New York will vote their traditional interests or self-interests and just because
Hillary Clinton gets on the bandwagon for a cause mutually supported by most Chinese-Americans and some Jews wouldn't be enough. Put another way, Israel and Palestine are probably wedge issues in New York, Nanking is not."

* "With respect to helping Hillary Clinton get elected if she could help get out the story of Japanese war crimes, and promote Japanese repentance and restitution to victims and their survivors; over my dead body."

* "As I have reported to some of you yesterday, Iris Chang was invited to the White House meeting with the First Lady Hillary Clinton yesterday afternoon on a very short notice. Through a local help in Washington, I was able to supply her some materials for this meeting."

* "With her likely run for the Senate seat in New York where Jewish influence the strongest in the financial industry, Wall Street, and most importantly in the media industry, we have the opportunity to get leverage from Ivy Lee's great work of getting Jewish Council to officailly passing a resolution to support our cause."

* "We will feed in the info request and send Mrs. Clinton various info. through Iris."

* "Thanks to Iris and all her supporters who help make her a star. I just want to share this good breakthrough with all of you tonight. The news will be out in
the Chinese press tomorrow. (This is your Early Edition)"

Much much more:
