I love Japan. I am Polish. Japan saved 765 Polish orphans in 1920 and 1922. Around 1920, there were about 200,000 Polish in Siberia. Most of them died. Poland has asked various countries to save Polish orphans in Siberia. But all countries refused to rescue. Poland finally commissioned Japan to rescue Polish orphans. The Japanese emperor and empress at the time immediately ordered the Japanese to save the Polish orphans.Japan soon began rescue Polish orphans.The orphan was in Siberia. Japanese continued to rescue Polish orphans in Siberia. The smallest orphan that Japan saved was a two-year-old child.The orphan was crying near her dead mother. The Japanese immediately rescued the orphan. Polish orphans were sent to Japan for treatment. Japan fed the Polish orphans a hot meal every day. All Polish orphans have recovered. Japan continued to love Polish orphans very much. All Japanese donated money to save Polish orphans. Polish orphans were always smiling. Japan has successfully returned 765 Polish orphans to Poland. I will not forget this story. Thanks to Japan. God bless Japan.
@C.F.P.N Hans bring ze luger Im not saying that they shouldn't remil them self, Im replying to the "go full super power" part. Also, where do you come from? Because back in the day of the glorious Imperial Japan my country was fucked into oblivion by them and the Dutch.
@Joshua Ngau Ajang to bad we can't pull out of anywhere because China will take advantage of that and capture those islands they're always arguing about and boom another war over oil
The Japanese Ground (Army), Maritime ( Navy), and Air ( Air Force) Self- Defense Force has really and truly made in roads at the National Defense and Homeland Security of Japan, with United States Military Forces assistance. I Am Prior Service USMC and US Army, and,I Am Impressed with It's Military.🗡️⚔️🔫💥🔥💀💪
John Rodriguez maybe China just sit there and wait until Trade War backfires America in a long-term period, and America may fail to stop Chinese rises. Then, with a strong and well-connected economy to almost all other parts of globe especially powerhouses like Japan and a strengthened military, finally China will force Japan to choose between keeping relation or facing sanctions and war; this time PLA can aim American forces stationing on Japanese soil (like how America defeated Spanish Empire on its way of becoming superpower in late 19th century). Yes, it would be risky because attack American forces, you will face nuclear warfare but China belongs to few ones who can both resist and counter it by anti-missile systems and nukes. And Chinese are not forgiving like Japanese, they still teach their people that Japan humiliated them before.
that might change soon japan might get back in power: because china is trying to take islands from japan and if china shoots first japan is going to war with china and that means America has to fight with them. 2: people from Islamic state killed two Japanese and now protesters are trying to get the military back in japan so they can fight in the wars happening over in Iraq and stuff.
All countries should have learned a lot from past wars, so much so that peace should exist forever, but they have also learned in case the opposite happens. I hope its the first option.
I have a half-japanese friend who told me that the elite SDF are used for defense only and not to instigate war, as some kind of Japan's atonement for WW2. Much respect. 🤚
Their constitution prohibits them from having a military and to forever renounce war be forced to be pacifist. But with the threat of North Korea and China especially they might need to take drastic measures.
Fun fact Japan utilizes 1% of its GDP for the Japanese Self Defense Forces. Due to the Economies Shere size it has a 5O Billion Dollar Budget in USD sick man.
What most peeps don't get , it's that in Japan, commitment is an important word. I'm not racist saying other Asian countries lacks commitment. But what I can say is that Japan was and is always United. And that's making it's strength and weakness...
