Japanese Communist Party (JCP)
Archived web site of www.jcp.or.jp/
The website states the views of the Communist Party towards constitutional revision, especially Article 9.
A link in the website (http://www.jcp.or.jp/topics/yuuji.html) lists articles in chronological order on political and citizens' movements, mainly regarding Article 9.
The party strongly opposes changing Article 9 to make the SDF a full military force and allowing the SDF to initiate or participate in overseas military actions.
It argues that abolishing Article 9 will make Japan a militaristic country and will disrupt peace and security in East Asia.
It adds that following the lead of the US is not always desirable.
