In the on going war of immaturity between China and Japan they have now accused each other of acting like Lord Voldemort from the Harry Potter series. They are competing to be crowned the biggest spoiled brat in East Asia. It's difficult to tell who's winning at this time what with all the childish name calling they'll have to up their game to genuine insults before a winner can be declared.
Good Luck: And may the bigger asshole win.
Good Luck: And may the bigger asshole win.
Chinese ambassador Liu Xiaoming dealt the first blow in an opinion piece published in the Daily Telegraph last week.The Japanese respond:
He wrote: “In the Harry Potter story, the dark wizard Voldemort dies hard because the seven horcruxes, which contain parts of his soul, have been destroyed.
“If militarism is like the haunting Voldemort of Japan, the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo is a kind of horcrux, representing the darkest parts of that nation’s soul.”
Magical horcruxes were used by “He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named” to become immortal by storing parts of his soul.
In a response published in today’s Telegraph, Japanese ambassador Keiichi Hayashi, wrote: “There are two paths open to China. One is to seek dialogue, and abide by the rule of law.
“The other is to play the role of Voldemort in the region by letting loose the evil of an arms race and escalation of tensions, although Japan will not escalate the situation from its side.”
He called militarism a “ghost” from Japan’s past and insisted the country had exercised “utmost restraint” in disputes over the East China Sea, where he argued Chinese ships had repeatedly intruded into Japanese territorial waters surrounding the Senkaku - or Diaoyu - Islands.
