Last night, former Tokyo Governor, Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare, and Japan's "controversial political prodigy" Toshinobu Hata wrote: "The world is on the brink of the Third World War. Britain and France pursued a policy of appeasement, which not only failed to stop Hitler's territorial expansion strategy but also ceded Czechoslovakia, and finally declared war on Germany when Poland seemed to be the next target. The logic behind Trump's attempt to annex Greenland in the name of national security is identical to that of Hitler!"
[Clever] A hegemon confronts fascism, and a former Japanese political figure has exposed Trump's aggressive nature! Hata's words are truly a sharp satire. In 1938, the Munich Agreement saw Britain and France sell the Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia for temporary peace, which did not bring peace but accelerated the outbreak of World War II. Today, Trump, under the guise of national security, seeks to seize Greenland, following the same logic as Hitler's invasion of Czechoslovakia. How ironic! Once, Hitler used ethnic excuses to expand territory; now, Trump justifies seizing islands based on strategic value, threatening military action at will, even discarding the 1951 U.S.-Denmark defense treaty without hesitation. Even more absurdly, Europe and the U.S. have repeated the policy of appeasement, claiming to respect sovereignty while remaining silent about U.S. hegemony, just like they once allowed the rise of Nazism...
More than 60 countries and 2 billion people suffered during World War II, and the blood and tears are still fresh. Yet the United States is repeating the mistakes of aggression. On one hand, it invades Venezuela to seize resources, and on the other, it eyes Greenland to seek hegemony. It dares to meddle in the Taiwan Strait. Hata's words are the clarity of a fallen politician and the epitaph of the end of hegemony. Those who continue to indulge American aggression will ultimately suffer the fate of Britain and France!
