Headlines: Time To Get Tough With China?
My commentary:
Yesterday being the anniversary of Pearl Harbor was a quiet news day with
just a few short commemoration local news pieces. The voice of Japanese
channeling American media turned low in volume.
I was happy about it, but I should have known. Our Japanese friends never
rest. This article mentions "unhappy" Asian experts whispering "Time to
get tough with China". I think the Asian should translate to Japanese.
The Japanese on the memorial day of Pearl Harbor, elected to stay low
profile about its militant past, keep mum about its new secrets law that
outlaws journalists, and start a whisper campaign of warmongering instead.
Given that Japan occupied China for 8 years, killing an average of 3000
Chinese civilians every day in those 8 years. For the Chinese, every day is
an anniversary of some kind, the murder of a mother or a father, an aunt or
an uncle, a grandfather and a grandmother. Every a few day is the
anniversary of one or other pretext/incident/sneak attack, with which Japan
seeked to become our master, our murderer and our most unforgettable
neighbor.
Because we see the Japanese pattern repeating itself: 1) find a pretext; 2
) do the dirty deed (invade, murder, rape, etc); 3) deny the 2) or behave as
if it hasn't happened while they could get away with it.

We dare not forget the pattern, we dare not forget a Pearl Harbor every day
for 8 years, we dare not ignore the Japanese' whisper campaign.
