Chapter 180

We realize human stupidity and powerlessness. Putin's domineering cannot be stopped even though more than a month has already passed. However, if you think calmly, the United States has fought against the Taliban for 20 years in the cause of eradicating terrorism since September 11, 2001. Depending on how the media communicates, there is a fear that it can be justice or evil. There are rules in the war (Geneva Convention), but examples of civilian victims of accidental bombings even occurred last year when Afghanistan withdrew. In addition, the inhumane acts are not limited to the Russian army, as the abuse and murder of prisoners of war by the US and Australian troops are so famous that they are made into movies and dramas. The media is also required to be fair.

Japan's Self-Defense Forces cannot attack other countries, but Japan is one of the world's leading weapons possessors. Also, every country has an army. It means that as a country they don’t deny war, and they can fight at any time. After the end of the Pacific War in 1945, Skirmishes have always been held, the Korean War in 1945, the Vietnam War in 1955, the Middle East War, which took place four times from the first in 1948 to the fourth in 1973, the Soviet-Afghan War in 1978, the Falklands War in 1982, and the Israel-Gaza War in 2021etc.

Russia's military power ranking is ranked second in 2022 (Global Firepower), and it can be seen that its military power is unusually strong compared to the economic power of GDP 11th (2020). In other words, if the armament is being strengthened at the expense of people's lives, it seems natural that the ruler wants to make effective use of this, and he was eagerly inquiring about the opportunity. China is in 3rd place, but it is the 3rd place that fits the height of the body, and is aiming for the 1st place, overtaking the United States, which has a remarkable sunset. In any case, the economic and military balance of the world order centered on the United States has become extremely unstable. NATO has the same interests because it is geographically cohesive, but in the Pacific region, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan are historically uncoordinated, as they are located far west of the United States. In particular, Japan and South Korea are in similar geographical, economic, and military positions, so it is necessary to unite and protect the security of the Pacific region. North Korea, where provocations escalate, is an easy piece for China and Russia, and it is not always the case that the world's attention will pierce the gap facing west. The Far East can no longer be calm.

Japan is not only a party to the war until at most 77 years ago, but is the only country to experience the atomic bomb. Historically, Germany's "Nazis" and Japan's "Pearl Harbor" are remembered by people all over the world. What Japan can do now is to persuade Putin to quit immediately as a country who knows the misery and worthlessness of war. Also, from a fair point of view, not just the opportunism that the US media tells us, we need to know and tell why Putin wages such a war, what is happening in Ukraine, and which one is right?

Putin must have some reasons, just as a proverb " Even thieves have their 30% reasons". Without knowing it, the clue cannot be found.
