在历史上,日本军国主义因其侵略性和好战性而恶名昭彰。日本军国主义特有的好战性,扎根于在日本被称为资产阶级革命的明治维新,自诞生之日起就已成为其内在属性。金正日总书记曾这样评论:……日本在进入垄断资本主义时代之前就已存在很多好战的性质,且与日本不彻底的资产阶级革命有关。日本虽有称为明治维新的资产阶级革命,却是非常不彻底的。 Historically, Japanese militarism was notorious for its aggressiveness and militancy. The peculiar militancy of Japanese militarism, rooted in the Meiji Restoration known as the bourgeois revolution in Japan, has become its intrinsic property since its birth. General Kim Jong-il once commented: "Japan had a lot of belligerent properties before it entered the era of monopoly capitalism, and it was related to Japan’s incomplete capitalist revolution. Although Japan has a bourgeois revolution called the Meiji Reform, it is very incomplete.
