*Okay, I'm gonna give it to you straight, Japan took advantage of Korea's political weakness in 1905, when the islets were registered as a part of Shimane prefecture, Japan. Koreans were not able to protest the Japanese action at the time because Japan had already taken control of all the foreign affairs of Korea as defined under the Protectorate Treaty of 1905 that allows the Korean King to have no authority in foreign, internationally affairs and limits him to conduct only internal affairs!"


I feel like Japan thinks that she can do whatever she wants in regards to Korea because of the past colonization of Korea from 1905-1945. Why is it that Japan bows her head to White/European countries but has condescending eyes to the Koreans? It's true, Japan was powerful and once swalllowed all of Korea, China, and other neighboring countries, but that does not give her the right to take and steal from a politically weaker country because Japan is more economically powerful. That is not right. It was not right to rape the Korean women who were taken from their homes to engage in sexual activities with the Japanese soldiers during WW2-- Korean Comfort Women-- you exploited our Korean grandmas, are you gonna take this island too?
All evidence points to Dokto being rightfully Korea's. I mean, even this Japanese postcard in 1911 shows Dodko as part of Korea!!!
