'''Hideaki Kase''' is a [[Japanese people|Japanese]] [[revisionist]], who is known for praising [[Kamikaze]] pilots, and claiming that Japan's actions in [[World War II]] were justifiable.

In an interview with BBC journalist Bethan Jinkinson, Kase said: "The majority of our people believe that Japan was forced into war by the United States. America was making unreasonable demands upon us. So we were fighting a war of national self-defence".

His father, [[Toshikazu Kase]], was in the Foreign Ministry under [[Shigenori Togo]] that negotiated an end to the war.
