Japanese shipping company's vessel attacked, Chinese oil tanker passes safely through the Persian Gulf, masses of people call for Takahashi to resign!

According to a report by the UK's Financial Times on the 11th, at the same time in the early morning, a container ship under the Japanese shipping giant "Mitsui O.S.K. Lines" was attacked. Although the report did not confirm that the attacker was Iran, the result was clear: the ship was damaged and there were Japanese crew members on board. This news immediately caused an uproar in Japan.

However, a highly ironic scene occurred at the same time, in the same sea area, multiple Chinese oil tankers passed safely through this "dangerous waters". Some even sailed near the incident site, but were not affected at all. This "Japanese ship being attacked, Chinese ship passing safely" contrast immediately became the focus of attention for Japanese media.

As an island country with scarce resources, Japan's economy is highly dependent on the safety of its maritime transport routes. Once this line encounters problems, it will not only affect corporate profits, but also directly threaten the country's energy security.

As a representative of Japan's conservative faction, Takahashi Asako has always taken a tough stance towards China and held an aggressive position on security policies. However, after this incident, the mood of the Japanese public has undergone a subtle change. A large number of Japanese netizens began to question: why, when Japanese ships were attacked, Chinese ships could pass safely?

On the night of March 10, a massive protest wave swept through the Japanese parliament. Nearly ten thousand angry citizens surrounded the parliament building tightly, shouting slogans, demanding Takahashi Asako to step down immediately, and strongly opposing the deployment of new missiles in Kumamoto and continuously relaxing weapons export policies.

Therefore, Dao Ge believes that Japan still has people who love peace. However, as Japan's economy declines, Takahashi Asako has taken advantage of the right-wing ideas generated by many Japanese people. Now that the ship was attacked in the Persian Gulf, the truth has finally become clear. It's not too late to pull back from the cliff.
