Yamamoto Isoroku and Kanno Sugako.

 

Two important characters in history, Isoroku Yamamoto and Kanno Sugako, these people have been passing in certain situations in Japan, let's start with Isoroku Yamamoto, he was a strategist man in charge of planning the famous attack on pearl harbor, a person loyal to the empire of Japan, in addition to achieving the most notable successes. All this would cost him his life, since while he was making an itinerary flight, American pilots, on a top secret mission, ambushed him, shooting down his ship. Continuing with Kanno sugako, she was accused of treason by the Japanese government for her alleged involvement in what was called the Kōtoku case, the objective of which was the assassination of the Meiji Emperor. She was the first woman with political prisoner status to be executed in modern Japanese history. Together with his lover and two other anarchists they planned the assassination of the Emperor. Miyashita Takichi decided to use explosives for that purpose, and they asked a comrade, Shimizu Taichiro, to store the bomb, but he decided to notify the police. Along with 23 other people, Kanno was sentenced to death and hanged on January 24, 1911. These characters differ in some things, such as the fact that Yamamoto died loyal to his homeland and Sugako died defending women.

 

"Was it fair"? To my way of seeing it, Sugako is not fair, since she only wanted to be heard, defend women and was killed, her objective began by being heard. The end of Yamamoto may be just, since, he made an attack that costs many innocent lives, he fulfilled his objective, but it may be fair his death.
