Japan is cooked

This is the link to the full documentary of John Pilger's The Coming War with China, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kyM8uQQc_w, you would have to copy/paste this link to watch the documentary. Watch this in conjunction with this article I have written to get a real feel of the impending destruction of Japan should war starts between the USA and China.

Japan will be the first country to be cooked in the event of a war between the US and China or Russia. The simple reason is that Japan has been turned into the front line of defence and offence for the Americans. The Americans have more than 100 military bases and more than 50,000 soldiers in Japan alone to defend America and to launch attacks against China or Russia. The American troops in Japan has nothing to do with the North Koreans. The Japanese Self Defence Force is more than able to deal with the North Koreans.

What would the military strategists in China or Russia do when they know that the American forces in Japan would be the first to be used to attack them? The answer is so obvious. They cannot allow these bases to operate at their doorsteps to launch attacks against their mainland in China or Russia. The military strategists would ensure that all these bases would be taken out at the first sign of hostility. The outcry of 1000 missiles aiming at Taiwan was a PR exercise but not real. There will be missiles aimed at Taiwan, but China does not need to do that for obvious reasons. Taiwan is insignificant and incapable of doing real damage to China.

In the case of Japan, the danger of an American strike is formidable. The fire power of the American bases is incomprehensible, with nuclear weapons hidden under secrecy though official claimed to be not there. There will be several thousand missiles both from China and Russia and North Korea aiming at all the military bases in Japan, Americans and Japanese, for sure. And these are priority targets number one. And for safe measures, all the civilian airports and sea ports would also be targeted as they could be used for the military in times of war.  So, to say a few thousand missiles aiming at Japan is not unreal.

Did Japan ask for it? I doubt the proud and nationalistic Japanese would want any American bases in their soil in breach of their sovereignty and humiliating their national pride. Japan is more than able to defend itself. It was a superpower in WW2, overrunning the whole of Asia and SE Asia. They do not need to be protected by the Americans. The Americans just imposed their will on the Japanese, demanding to have their soldiers in Japan, as front line troops against China and Russia. Japan's national security just got compromised for the interest of the Americans defending their empire.

Japan not only took on the Americans but declared war on the world. What is this nonsense that Japan needs to be protected by the Americans and with more than 100 military bases in Japan alone? The South Koreans are in the same fate. They too would be cooked in the first sign of war with the Americans.

Would Trump do the inevitable, by demanding for a ransom to station troops in Japan and Abe simply said Japan could not pay and please Americans go home? Trump's ignorance of geopolitics would be a gift for Japan to break free from the clutches of the Americans. When come to the push, Trump may have to pull back all the American troops if Japan refuses to pay, and with the Japanese smiling behind his back. Japan would then achieve real independence and no longer be a semi colony of the American Empire, to be first to fall when the Empire declares war on China or Russia.

This is a round of poker game between Abe, the nationalist and imperialist that want Japan to be great again, as an independent nation and Trump who also wants to make America great again but not as an Empire. Who would be forced to show hand and be cleaned off his chips on the table?
