The appeasement to Abe
When Adolf Hitler started the militarization of Germany, the European powers looked on quietly, hoping that he was only rebuilding Germany to protect itself. England, the dominant power than adopted a policy of appeasement, allowing Hitler to expand his armed forces freely as he wished. When Hitler finally invaded the rest of Europe it was too late to cry. Europe almost went under if the Americans did not intervened, but at a very high cost on human lives and sufferings. There would be no holocaust and millions of Jews would not have suffered the cruelties of the Germans. European countries would not have been put to ruins and their citizens killed and maimed for life. It was too late to regret for the failure to stop the militarization of Germany.
In East Asia today, the forces that would lead to a third World War have been set in motion just like the days of Adolf Hitler. Japan, under the Abe Administration, is going the same path as Hitler’s Germany. Military build up and remilitarization are top priority. Abe has a free hand to do as he pleases, like Adolf Hitler, and better still, with the encouragement of the Americans. The Americans are setting the stage for a major war with China with Japan on its side and whichever East Asian and South East Asian countries it can pull into its ranks.
Japan is the main assault force for the Americans against China. Japan’s military is being beefed up with American technology and weapons. Japan’s intention is blatantly displayed to the world by the appointing of Hawkish Defence Minister General Nakatani. The hawks are on the ascent. More military acquisition and building of military hardware like assault warships, aircraft carriers and a secret nuclear armament programme, ignoring the wrath of God with the crippling of Fukushima nuclear plant. All nuclear power stations must be run to produce the weapon grade plutonium for nuclear weapons production.
The Americans quietly acquiesced, not appeasement, by allowing Japan to retain 300kg of weapons grade plutonium ‘loaned’ to Japan for research purposes. What was the intent? These could easily produce 40 to 50 nuclear weapons and the only farce that the Americans are doing is to put on an act of wanting them back. Japan is also in possession of 44,000 kg of home grown plutonium from its nuclear power stations. How many more nuclear bombs could they produce?
Though officially not admitted, Japan could be in possession of hundreds of nuclear weapons today with the connivance and approval of the Americans. And the Americans are allowing the Japanese to rewrite their pacifist constitutions so that it could go back to its past aggression military adventure, to conduct wars.
What is happening to the remilitarization of Japan is more than appeasement but a concerted effort promoted by the Americans to use the Japanese, as a nuclear power, to contain China and to hold China at ransom with the threat of a nuclear war. It is easier to get the ambitious and conceited Japanese to take on China and let Asia burns.
The rise of a military Japan is almost complete with the rest of the world turning a blind eye and with the Americans providing all the assistance and approval for a Japan to return to its Imperialist past. Shinzo Abe is the new Adolf Hitler of the 21st Century. The world is being prepared for a 3rd World War by the USA and Japan with East Asia as the battle ground.

I can't believe the rest of Asia (with the exception of China) is not making a fuss that the Nips have 300kg of weapons grade plutonium "on loan" (like borrowing a book form the library?? WTF?) from Obama.
N Korea has about one-tenth that amount and everyone is shitting bricks. Pakistan would have to go full-bore/ non-stop for 10-12 years to produce that amount---and cause India to shit elephants, possibly triggering some sort of military response.
What the fuck is wrong with Asian governments lah? Are they asleep, afraid or just plain fucking stupid? How can they just not do ANYTHING---not even saying a word---and allow Japan, a former aggressor and brutal conqueror---to even own, let alone BE TRUSTED WITH ANY weapons-grade plutonium?
Asian governments are going to / have already SOLD OUT their citizens to curry favour from the Yanks.
This can't end well.
Phuck Abe.
Before Fukushima: 100 Bq/kg of cesium is nuclear waste
After Fukushima: 100 Bq/kg of cesium is safe to eat

We must also see that Japan is today a peaceful country and her people are fascinated by doraemon..etc. Very few want to fight and the government is not mobilizing them.
Japan median age today is 45 years old. How can an old man fight?
Many of these anti Japan news are merely PRC propaganda.
You are talking nonsense. You are a Chinese but not a PRC Chinese, so why talk in such an inflammatory manner. Japan had demilitarised since end of WW2 and done a lot for the world to appease its past. With the aggressive approach of PRC with its N Asia and Asean neighbours, you are chatistising Japan for upgrading its military capability while PRC is arming itself to the teeth and behaving like a big bully. Don't forget that in mentality PRC is still a communist country and its DNA doesn't alter so quickly. Better you use yr energy to run down our Sinagpore G for its extravagant defence strategy.
Haha........
The Chinese has a Saying that if one loses to an opponent, it is because one is weak physically, mentally and strategically. If China is the Quarry, then the Chinese has to counter and fight the Battles head on.
Ideally, there should be no war, but in reality, war is ongoing since beings must fill their stomachs and born with greed to want more. There is no probity and fairness in war and warfare. Whoever defeats the Other(s) is the Victor.
War as in love, is anything goes and war has never stop in the History of Beings.

The PRC killed more than Japanese in 8 years WW2 China in just 3 years of peace time Great leap forward.
Anon 11:17, what are you? You think a leopard will change its spot? You think the right wing Japanese and the hawks in Japan really regretted what they done in the past? Abe is very proud of 731. You know what is that? You know Diaoyu Island belongs to China but is still control by Japan with no intent to return? You know Dokto Island is still claimed by the Japanese? You know the Japanese are itchy to go on foreign military mission?
What are you? OCBC or Japanese sympathiser?
PRC keep ranting 731. But we have take a big picture of Manchuria. Japanese Manchukuo was the most developed ad industrialize place in Asia, outside Japan.
Manchukuo is far more industrialize than even Shanghai.
Muchukuo products included aircraft, automobiles and trucks, blankets, boots, bread and flour, bricks, candies and foods, carpets, raw cellulose, cement, dyes and inks, electrical devices, fabric, farm equipment, glass, industrial paint, industrial paper, liquor and beer, locomotive manufacturing and repair and related railway industries, milk and cheese, mining equipment, munitions processed leather products, rubber articles, soy and other processed foods, vegetable oil, hand and heavy weapons, etc.
Some measures of Manchu industrial production (1932–35):
Coal production: 15 million metric tonnes of coke coal
Cement Production: 10% of Japanese Cement production
Steel Production: 450,000 metric tonnes
500,000 spindles and accompanying fabric factories annually produced 25,000 tonnes of cotton fabrics.
She has the most dense rail road in China and she even has a airline.
Today PRC Manchuria is a rust belt.
I just don't trust the Japs anyway. Culturally, they will only kowtow to the victors and treat past losers like animals. The day they become a superpower in the arm race, they will invate its neighbours including S.E.A.
The real murderer of Manchukuo is Mao, Lin Biao and their lackey USSR, not 731.
While 731 killed a few hundreds, Mao force Lim Biao to starve 300,000 civilian to death in Changchun.
The USSR is famous for rape in Manchuria WW2.
Basically the commie are far worse than Japs. They come and fuck, rape or murder.
Eh Veritas, who you thinking? Manchukuo and Korea were the industrial and logistic bases of the Japanese to launch its was of conquest. The industrialisation was not meant to benefit the Manchurians or the Koreans. They were the slaves of Imperial Japan.
Slave or not Slave, Manchuria has the highest standards of living.
The people are slaves to Mao and slaves to the princeling elite of PRC today.
We had Sinkie Chinese and Indian who worked for Japanese Imperial Army during WWII.
Me will not be surprised that we also have Japanese idolating Sinkies in our midst.
patriot
No need for nuclear weapons. Since Japan uses weapons-grade plutonium, just bomb their nuclear power plants. If the time comes to do it, just do it.
Me do not idolate anyone. I speak the truth.
We cannot let ourselves still carry the baggage of era past. We should let time heal and not assume more of the sad old past will still be upon us. In politics the line between good and bad is often a blur one. You can't be serious that in today's global environment and diplomacy that the Hitler and Imperial Japan of the past can easily regenerate themselves in today's world. In terms of atrocity, look at Mao's Cultural Revolution and the Tiananmen massacre and others by the commies also in Russia which destoyed the lives of millions of its own people. Their DNA cannot have disappeared all together now. They have just been made less visible.
@1233:
>> We cannot let ourselves still carry the baggage of era past. We should let time heal and not assume more of the sad old past will still be upon us
You fail to see the context. What you suggest would be fine...HOWEVER...the panty-sniffing Nips have NEVER APOLOGISED for their WW2 atrocities. In fact they have been very arrogant about it.
Of course Mao was a brutal and efficient killer. He killed tens of millions of his own people in the Great Leap Forward. However China was never an agressor to other nations. Japan however, has a history of invasion, brutality and conquest.
Mao Zedongs' communist faction happened to fight the Chinese Kuomintang led by Chiang Kai Sek who was dead set against the Communist and in many ways was aligned with the US Imperialist. As both Parties had huge fighting members, it was inevitable to have huge casualties. It only needs commonsense to understand that the War between the Two Chinese Factions was extensive, China being a huge country with the Highest Population naturally resulted in the Huge Number of Chinese killed.
Why is Kuomintang and or Chiang Kai Shek not blamed for the Death?
Why only Mao and his Commanders?
It also appears to me that those oppose to Communism invariably speak ill of communist.
I had asked many times here and in Facebook; what's wrong(moral/system wise or anything) with Communism and Communist. To date no one had responded. Even if there are opposition to Communism, please bear in mind that differences in ideology does not mean one has to hate the Others without any good ground. Ideological differences are much like taste differences, there is no objective evilness in all Governing Systems and the Evil, if any is always the Abuse and Misuse of power in ALL Systems.
patriot
CPC are traitors of China aligning themselves with USSR, who cut up Outer Mongolia. And before that Russia took Outer Manchuria, Outer Xinjiang and Tuvan.
The lost of China to Russian is more than 50 Taiwans.
USA has never taken an inch from China.
The problem with USA is that it is making China its Number One Enemy today.
Hi patriot, you asked a very pertinent question. Political ideologies are a system of belief with good intention. What is bad is the people that twisted these ideologies to benefit themselves or at time misinterpret or mis applied the ideologies. How valid the ideologies and how applicable are also affected by their basis assumptions.
Even in religions, some religions have very bad doctrines but could turn out good by good practitioners and leaders and vice versa.
The really evil part of ideologies and religions is the people practising them.
China made USA No 1 enemy, then made USSR No 1 yesterday.
When Fat Kim senior start the Korean War, China jump in, sabotaging Korean. Today, N Korean live in shit hole, having a Sun God lording over them.
This is entirely China's fault. And to continue to support Fat Kim as he murdered is China's crime against humanity.
But today, it is USA more at fault for provocating China.

Anon 12.14 made a pertinent point. In a war, targeting nuclear plants is as good as dropping nuclear bombs. I do not believe every nuclear power station can be protected, whatever shield they can talk about.
Not that China would be safe in a nuclear war with Japan, with strikes on each other's nuclear facilities, but the size of Japan may not withstand a few direct hit on their nuclear plants, what with using nuclear warheads.
In any case, humans may not be around in a full scale nuclear world war, whether winners or losers they may be.
Its a class war. The ruling class is worried about the rising number of pheasants who will threaten and turn against them. All the problems from religion to whatever shit are just smoke screens to divert attention from the real problem. They will collaborate to launch wars to rid the number of pheasants off this planet so they can rule forever.

Veritas, in geopolitics, it is not a simple case of who is right or wrong. Look at the Middle East.
When MacArthur was standing on the other side of the Yalu River with his armies and egging on crossing the border into China, and toying with the idea of bombing Lop Nor, China was faced with a real enemy. Joining the war was not a matter or morality. It was national interest and the threat of an enemy at its doorstep.
The war between the Koreans was a civil war like between CCP and KMT. It was a struggle for power and who to rule the country.
veritas,
usa treat china better?
bombing of china embassy?
fabrication of june 4 massacre?
supporting china dissident to overthrow ccp ruling, create instability by promoting ethnic independence
impose harsher entry rule on wto on china
denied high tech product, international co operation, exchange of technology with china.
refuse to allow china participate on many international co operation.
constantly attack CCP, promote hatred against china govt
constantly promote china threat, promoting hatred against chinese people who reside in foreign nation ( chinese taking over far east russsian, chinese taking over african, chinese taking over burma )
refuse to give visa free to chinese people
constantly target ethnic chinese as spies
conviction rate for ethnic chinese is 99% for espionage charge.
forcing china govt to allow GMO for chinese people
exporting harmful, highly polluted e waste to china for dumping
forcing china to sell their highly precious rare earth for very ridiculous cheap price
china dont have right to reject , impose quota on such sale.
constantly spreading negative news about china economy - create vote of no confidence among foreign investor. ( invoke panic in the market)
usa regime never offer apology for their imperialisme, exploitation and killing of chinese people
no war reparation had been offered to victim.
usa regime also killed chinese people during peace times too ( 1919-1949)
usa regime also forced china to pay huge war reparation
usa regime build tsinghua university with china own money ,not usa money ( war reparation)
usa regime never offer apology for their imperialisme, exploitation and killing of chinese people
no war reparation had been offered to victim.
you call such gesture as goodwill
there is not much difference between great leap forward, asian financial crisis, global financial crisis,
how can you compare japan invasion, japan brutal killing with a great leap forward ( stupid policy)
do you compared car accident with 911 attack?
all negative news about japan are purely prc propaganda
but
why you are preaching anti chinese propaganda invented by japan
" mao kill more people than japan during peace times"
"japan had been peaceful since ww2"
after ww2, almost all nation become peaceful.except powerful nation, uk, usa, soviet union
you give too much credit for japan.( for their peaceful)
all politicians are evil, some more than others. no one saint out there.

when north korea invade south korea
south korea is a military dictatorship - killing their own student who protest for their freedom.
south korea was selling out their sovereignty to foreign force by allowing usa to have military base on their soil , allow usa soldier enjoy immunity right
china only intervene in korean war after usa regime break their promise to cross yalu river.
north korea problem would not exist
if usa regime has courage to withdraw all their military force on korean soil, japan soil
there is no excuse for fat kim to increase military spending, developing nuclear weapon.
the only reason why north korea dont allow free information, give good life to citizen
because their national security are under serious threat
usa , south korea, japan want to overthrow their govt.
north korea had diplomatic ties with many nation, not only china
china always been singled out by western media for " their typical anti china bashing' to promote their own geopolitical interest.
if usa really care about human right in north korea, usa could ask for 2 million north korea people and let them stay in usa for freedom,equality and abundant food.
veritas
today, there is no foreign military base on north korea soil
there are no soviet , or chinese military base on korean soil
in contrast, usa military base in south korea soil
usa military enjoy immunity , not bound by south korea law.
south korea dont enjoy independence foreign policy.
who is destabilizing korean peninsular?
it is your beloved USA.
all have fall prey into the usofa hands. usofa very skillful in making nations, especially asians, fighting against each other.
btw, they also enjoyed making europeans fighting each other and arabs fighting each other and in the meantime, increasing their wealth. can u ever trust a weapon trader?
Basically Veritas is a dunce though he thought otherwise and thought very highly of himself.
Russian army eat Chinese.
USA troop in South Korea prevent them from having a Sun God.
@Matilah Singapura
Claiming that Japan has a history of invading their neighbours is to correlate Japan's post Meiji History and claim it's representative of all of Japan's behavior in it's long recorded history.
Japan has invaded a foreign polity only twice in it's history. The dual invasions of Korea during the Imijin War and Japan's aping of the West after the restoration of the Meiji. For most of it's history Japan was left either alone or the target of invasions.
China on the other hand, grew to it's current size through a series of wars. Sichuan and Qinghai? Seized and lost to ethnic Tibetan kingdoms in wars from the Tang onwards. The cities surrounding Beijing and Tianjing? Conquered from the retreating Mongols who took it from the Jin. Yunnan, Guangdong? The local Yue, Wu and Bai peoples forcibly assimilated into the Chinese polity.
There's a reason that Vietnam so quickly turned to the USA despite it's bloody war with the Americans. They've spent close to a thousand years eating Chinese shit and they're not eager to repeat it.
@JayF:
OK, I get your point.
Now the context in which I made my previous comment---the context is (more) RECENT history. Japan's brutality as a mad conquerer is still fresh in the memories of Asian people living today---although they're getting on in years.
As for the Vietnamese---they're the "survivors" of Asia, and yes, they hate the Chinese for brutal oppression.
We live in a much more peaceful world now **, compared to the past---despite the fact that there are more weapons of total annihilation. Armed conflicts these days are confined to certain areas---Middle East, Eastern Europe, the offices of French cartoonists...
However 300 kilos of fissile material is enough to make around 30 nuclear weapons---given that critical mass of Pu-239 is ~10kg, depending on the purity.
Having that great of a potential nuclear arsenal is a GAME CHANGER (and a massive fear generator), not only for China, but also for the rest of Asia.
** Steven Pinker The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined
@ Matilah
If you mean fresh in the memory you are referring to history lessons and tales passed down by the older generation, then yes.
Remember,the 2nd War is 70 years ago and many people hitting retirement were not born when Japan officially surrendered.
For most adults today, Japan is viewed as a source of popular culture and fetish porn and some cool but incomprehensible tech. Why does the Koreas and China have such a hate boner for Japan? Because they're filled with media reminding them of the brutal Japanese wars and occupations. Why do most of the other former nations once part of the Empire not care less about Japan re-arming other than Sinophiles? Because they've never experienced Japanese war brutality and they grew up in a time when Japan was seen as cool and have officially renounced war.
Do these nations remember what happened? Yes, but just like the Western powers who fought and conquered Japan, they've moved on. The Koreas and China though, it's part of their national narrative.
Could Japan go arm themselves with nukes? Absolutely. Will they do so and in an open manner declare themselves part of the nuke club or even make it an open secret like Israel? Not unless American power has regressed to such a point. Nukes are still very much political poison in Japan. Depiction of nukes are treated as the ultimate evil to this day, so they'd have to feel fear of ceasing to exist as a nation to go that route.
