At 17:00 the Vice President of the Committee (Mr. Sato, former commander of PKO troops in Iraq in 2003! ...) forced Yamamoto Taro to end his speech. And immediately, the sameVice-President requested the vote on the censure motion against the President of the Commission.
Without surprise, the motion was rejected, but all of a sudden, the NHK mutes the sound ( 5:50 in the video), posting subtitles claiming that "the exchanges that follow are not transcribed" (???).
We saw then the president of the commission, the PM Abe and his Minister of Defence finally entering into the room, escorted by policemen, the President announcing that the vote on the law would take place immediately in reduced session!
Opposition senators, revolted (they counted immediately file a further motion against the government) have rushed to the desk of the president. YamamotoTaro was the first in line, naturally, asking for time to file another motion. They were ignored,
In an incredible noise and turmoil, the president of the commission, invisible and inaudible, probably stammered that the law was passed! Indeed, the LPD senators stood up more or less two or three times. Just after they are already stood up a first time, Abe came out !! (He fled?) ...
There it is, it has been done ... Japan is not a pacifist country anymore. It can make war again!
The trial record of the meeting (published on twitter by Koike of the PCF) specifies that the law was fully read, there was 5 questions and a regulatory vote: gross lie perfectly verifiable on the video).
In short, Taro has been the last Japanese MP (Senator) to express himself in a democratic framework. Now we know that Abe is ready to to do ANYTHING!
A NEW FÜHRER IS HERE!

"Anyone who understands the basic principle of the constitution cannot help but oppose the legislation," Aki Okuda, a leader of the group Students Emergency Action for Liberal Democracies, told reporters. "It's ridiculous, and the bills' legal questions have fueled the people's anger."
EDITORIAL: Passage of security legislation will only start long, grueling constitutional debate
The political battle over government-drafted national security legislation between the ruling and opposition camps has reached its final phase amid mounting public protests.
The ruling coalition led by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is determined to ram the legislation through the Diet this week.
Battle lines formed in July last year after the Abe Cabinet opened the door to Japan’s exercise of the right to collective self-defense by changing the government's longstanding interpretation of war-renouncing Article 9 of the Constitution. Successive administrations had concluded Japan cannot exercise that right unless the Constitution is amended.
Since then, many experts, including constitutional scholars and former chiefs of the Cabinet Legislation Bureau, have repeatedly taken issue with the legitimacy of the dubious step taken by the Abe administration.
ABE'S BACKDOOR APPROACH
Shigeru Yamaguchi, retired chief justice of the Supreme Court, dealt a fatal blow by stating: “The conventional interpretation of Article 9 has taken root as a norm, and if the government wants to change it, it must do it fairly and squarely by amending the Constitution to obtain public support.”

one has to wonder how he, Abe, thinks this will stand.
