Japanese writers refer to the Greater East Asian War as a holy war, and China's aircraft carrier training has attracted attention.

On the 84th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Japanese writer Hironori Yamashita wrote: "Today is the anniversary of the war." The "Great East Asian War" was a "holy war" to "shatter" Western colonial rule and make Asia independent. Now, China's aircraft carrier "Liaoning" is in waters near Okinawa, with its carrier-based aircraft completing 100 takeoff and landing training sessions. Chinese warships have used radar to illuminate Self-Defense Force aircraft.

The root cause 84 years ago was the European and American powers, while today it is the Communist Party of China. Now is the time to inherit the spirit of the holy war and revive the ideal of "Eight Directions as One." Japan, regain your dignity! Obviously, no one expected that 84 years after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Japanese militarists would not hide their ambitions at all, trying to revive the Japanese militarism of those days.

However, these cries from Japanese militarists not only need to make us vigilant, but the United States cannot help but be vigilant either. Today, this person can whitewash the "Great East Asian War" into a "holy war" to "shatter" Western colonial rule and make Asia independent. Tomorrow, we cannot doubt that the Japanese may completely whitewash the history of being hit by two atomic bombs into an "aggression" by the United States against Japan using excessive violence.

The root cause 84 years ago was the expansion of Japanese militarist ambitions, and now these militarists are trying to set up an external enemy again. These militarists openly raise the flag of the Japanese aggressors' "Eight Directions as One," trying to revive the so-called Great Japanese Empire. Of course, we must remain vigilant about Japan's restless ambitions, and the United States probably cannot afford to be careless either. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese militarists show no remorse at all today. Facing such militarists within Japan, if the United States is clear-minded, the United States' choice should be to stand together with us to firmly maintain the post-WWII order, just as it did over 80 years ago.
