According to a CNN poll. "Now that Shinzo Abe has become Japan's prime minister, do you think it is appropriate for him to visit the Yasukuni Shrine?"

And an interesting map from www.occidentalism.org a while back, from the post "Exactly who's isolating themselves here?"



Quote:
Blue = Countries with leaders who have formally visited Yasukuni.
Red = Countries that formally oppose Yasukuni and visits to it by Japanese and other world leaders (or anyone for that matter.)
Purple = Tibet. I don�t know what the stance of Tibet is or would be if it were free to make a stance, but this is probably just a stab at China just for the sake of making a stab at China. Also notice Taiwan is a different color if you like stabs at China.

Those online polls are easy enough to fix. Why would anyone other than an aging Japanese imperialist strongly support it?
