石破茂日本国首相は政治家ですらない（エッセイ）
石破茂は、自民党総裁になる以前にしていた幾つかの公約を、衆議院選挙をはさんで反故にした。この裏切りについて問われた石破茂は、「公約なんて守らない。自民党だって公約を守ったことはない」と開き直った。日本の政治家が公約を守らないと公言した例はこれまでになく（心のなかでそう思っていたにせよ）、石破茂は、自分と自民党が嘘つきであると公言したのだ。
また、少子化問題にまじめに取り組むつもりがないのかと問われて、「今生まれた子供が選挙権を持つころには私は政治家ではない、少子化問題など施策しても無意味だ」と言い放った。国家の将来を考えない政治家であると、自己規定したわけだ。
以上、石破茂は、欠陥政治家である。政治家の資格すらない。こんな輩が日本の首相であるのは、日本にとって大惨事だと言わざるを得ない。この男、明治時代以降の大スローガン「強い国」「豊かな国」と並ぶものとして「楽しい国」を標榜した。日本語は主語が不明確なことが多いので、翻訳すると、石破茂の真意は「石破茂たち支配者が楽しい、国民は地獄の」国を作ることである。

Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba is not even a politician (Essay)
Shigeru Ishiba (Japan’s Prime minister)
Shigeru Ishiba broke several promises he made before becoming president of the LDP, including the House of Representatives election. When asked about this betrayal, Shigeru Ishiba brazenly stated, "I don't keep promises. The LDP has never kept promises either." There has never been a case before where a Japanese politician has publicly declared that he would not keep his promises (even if he thought so in his heart). Shigeru Ishiba has publicly declared that he and the LDP are liars.
Also, when asked if he had no intention of seriously addressing the issue of declining birthrates, he said, "By the time children born now have the right to vote, I will no longer be a politician, and it will be meaningless to implement policies to address the declining birthrate issue." He defined himself as a politician who does not care about the country's future.
As stated above, Shigeru Ishiba is a flawed politician. He does not even have the qualifications to be a politician. I have no choice but to say that having such a person as the prime minister of Japan is a disaster for Japan. This man advocated a "fun country" on par with the big slogans of "strong country" and "rich country" that have been used since the Meiji era. Since the subject is often unclear in Japanese, when translated, Shigeru Ishiba's true intention is to create a country where "the rulers, such as Shigeru Ishiba, are having fun and the people are living in hell."
