Bruh they couldn’t beat pre-WW2 China in the middle of civil war, what are they gonna do now💀
Don’t forget that they had Korea, Manchuria, and a vast overseas empire to support their war effort. Today they have Nintendo and 5 men of military age to fight a war.
Yup, everyone is old
They’re probably ramping up to help the US defend Taiwan.
Bring it the fuck on you loli panty sniffers! You’ll get your kawaii ass handed to you by real soldiers.
why in 2027 though
I read the article and there isn’t anything like “Japan wants to attack China in 2027”, the date is the date when they will finish their 5 year armed forces expansion plan.
Aggression on China is implied but as part of USA attack, and as such if it happens, it will happen much earlier since even USA analysts say the China will have military advantage over USA in 2025 (i guess they mean defensive war since Pacific is quite big obstacle).
Most likely all this shit is tied to the same USA pivoting to China which was very recently discussed here about Australia, where US is basically openly threatening Australia into sabotaging their own interest and politics else there will be “consequences”.
100% chance that Japanese politicians heard the same thing with carrot dangled being probably the same thing as ever - the resources of Manchuria freely to exploit after US victory (joke on them, US would never keep that promise).
At this point, I think it’s pretty safe to say that something is going to happen in the next couple years to “justify” a hot war with China. This rhetoric has gotten out of hand.
The problem is that such a war will very likely go nuclear and then we’re all done for
Yeah. Problem is that apparently people currently at the top are scared of losing it so much, they are willing to wager that they will remain at the top of whatever remains after.
Looks at the small village “It is better to be first here than second in Rome”
