Fourth, the motive of these groups was a double one, the fear of becoming involved in a new war by the security pact, and the hostility of the whole left against the undemocratic attitude of the Kishi government, especially the way it pushed through the pact.

The third incident differed from the previous two in that the youth had undertaken the act out of a genuine political conviction. Obviously, the governmental party...
