    You know the Emperor well.

    As well as anyone can know His Majesty.

    Was he against the war?

    His Majesty is against all wars.

    He is a pacifist by nature, very gentle.

    Yet he gave permission for Pearl Harbor.

    When Tojo and the militarists took power,

    His Majesty was drawn in.

    It was a national delusion.

    Could he have stopped it?

    I don't know.

    I was removed from power by then.
