Beware of Japan's Revival of Militarism

Beware of Japan's Revival of Militarism - A Warning to US

Japanese ultra nationalists are gaining strength with the backing of US who is now using Japan as a bulwark against the rising power of China.

Nationalists are aiming at dismantling Peace Constitution which prohibits rearmament and projecting Japan's military power outward again.It is yet to be seen who is using whom.

I warn US that you will be bitten by your "faithful dog" again someday.

Don't forget the fact that these same nationalists feel most bitterly against the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, harbor deep hatred against US and swear vengeance someday. Koizumi's visits to Yasukuni War Memorial Shrine which commemorates Japanese soldiers who died in the war against US attest Japanese psyche.

History proves Japan cannot be trusted as a reliable ally. Until Russo-Japanese War, Japan held Anglo-Japanese alliance and pursued pro American foreign policy. However, once she became strong and ran a collision course with US, Japan stabbed the back of US with Pearl Harbor attack. History may repeat itself.
