Japan vs. The Islamic State
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- The brutal beheadings of Japanese nationals Kenji Goto and Haruna Yukawa by the Islamic State in January have shocked the island nation and lent momentum to an effort to expand the limitations imposed on its constitution and military after its defeat by the United States in World War II.
Leftists in Japan fear that the incident will encourage a departure from the country's pacifist constitution, whose Article 9 states that "the Japanese people forever renounce… the threat or use of force as a means of settling international disputes." Right-wingers, meanwhile, see an opportunity to allow Japan to assert itself as a truly sovereign state.
VICE News reports from Japan as its prime minister and right wing are pushing for re-militarization of the pacifist nation, amid protests from the left who staunchly oppose any changes to Article 9 of the constitution.

@@daviroza4700 You have no idea what you are talking about. Yes, Japan does not currently have nuclear weapons, but can easily manufacture them. They have the raw materials and the infrastructure to do so. This does not make them weak. Also, the JGSDF is small, but technologically worthy. Are you so uneducated, that you do not understand the reasoning behind the reliance on the USA for military protection? A hint, it has something to do with WWII, smart guy.

Since Japan is no longer an imperialistic entity, them adopting a proper military might not be such a bad idea. Their politics are completely different and the general antiwar attitude of the people might be a healthy approach to rearming themselves. however it is their constitution and as a democracy their people should be the ones to choose that path, not the prime minister.
Now that's the best example of democracy while still being centrist
This was 6 years ago now they have a self defense army I think
@@trla6505 they've always had a self defense force similar to the national guard and coast guard in the U.S. my comment is more so for the sake of them adopting an actual military so in the event of a larger conflict they're not strictly fighting on the defense. they can participate as a really strong ally to the us in the event of a larger scale conflict. or they can go to war if needed. if another country were to attack them defense will work to an extent but it wont completely eliminate a threat.
@@charlesdavis4933 oh I see, yeah I think it's important to have strong allies in different parts of the world
@@trla6505 with the general populace having a pretty anti war attitude it might turn out better for them vs when they had an imperial army. plus with the global political climate being very different, everyone isn't trying to take everyone else's land these days.

It would be comical. The Yakuza really just extorts people and businesses with threats and take advantage of a cultural desire to avoid confrontation. They also trick women (many of them from the Philippines) into prostitution and work as their pimps. I lived in Japan for three years and you'd see these guys working as touts outside seedy businesses, dressed all gaudy and acting faux tough. The Yakuza sounds all cool and menacing to people in the west but they're really just pathetic.

I don't understand this whole Issue , WWII is over , move on , Japan is allied to the west now just like Germany is , Germans and Japanese aren't dangerous it's their dictatorship regime during WWII that made them dangerous and fanatics.
Tomy Canis Agreed. And lest anyone forgot, Japan was on the Allied side during WW1.
Justin Lopez
Nah, I'm pretty sure they joined Axis since they dress better.
***** seriously ? they do that ? I didn't know about it. Well they're still on our side though but what do they say about the war with the Americans then ?
***** Oh Ok
Tomy Canis The issue may not matter to the West, but it still matters a lot to Russia, China, and North Korea. these countries were devastated by Japan and still hold a huge grudge.
If Japan start militarizing, it may set of an arms race with China, Russia, and North Korea. And their (China/Russia) traditional enemies will also join the race: like India (which will trigger Pakistan).
In that, case ISIS will be the least of Japan's worries.

+Mikelis Brown Well that's why there is so much opposition in Japan. They feel it's less to be an ally, and more an excuse to settle a grudge with China, which they think is stupid.
+Lightscribe225 it won't be stupid if a north Korean/Chinese attack happens on a Japanese island, or a Russian attack on the Kuril islands

That's why it's called the JSDF. As it is it's still an existing fighting force that can defend in case of attack. The current plan is Abe wants them to be an active military so they can throw the first punch.

Japan has changed a lot since WW2. They really do need to become more capable with their military. I am not at all worried about Japan going back to the ways of WW2 and that era. One thing is for sure, China would be a lot more cautious.
Of course you are not worried at all because your country haven't been invaded by Japanese Army and not millions of your people are killed/raped/beheaded
I think Japan’s defence force is pretty powerful correct me if I’m wrong. They have no military
Their defense force is on par with UK

I have to agree with Abe on this one. The citizens of Japan don’t know how war is like and Japan has the right to protect themselves.
japan can protect themselves. They have a defensive military force with modern weapons supplied by the west that is very professional and capable. the argument is for the ability to wage foreign, therefore, offensive, military action
As an American, I'll say this:
Japan attacked us, but the war is over. It has been for a long time. Now, we're allies.
They should have a military.
And they should get revenge for those nuclear bombs that got dropped on them.

As a Filipino with a Japanese blood (my grandmother is Half Japanese) LET JAPAN HAVE THEIR OWN ARMY!
Bruh you're an 8th japanese that's 12,5 % how are you saying us? Also the article 9 is not about self defense which Japan still has the right to do , it's about invading a country . Japan has an army it's just not allowed to fight on another countries ground .
I agree, being a half japanese i want japan to be able to protect its people and interest outside of its own mainland, if that happens im gonna join japan military/navy/airforce..
Its late peeps they already ordered 100+ F35's. *another money for uncle sammy*
Their own people are stoping them.
I believe for a matter of fact Japan will have better economic security under the control of ISIS, in a way their will be a peace treaty between Japan and ISIS after Abe finish his term, I do believe that Japan becomes a Muslim country under the control of the Chinese government.
Well this will be a Muslim will be PM of Japan and meets in China to sign a treaty of peace with the Islamic State that means the Islamic State becomes part of the Chinese government that means Japan's economic rennisance or say that Japan's strongest economy in years become stronger than ever as a Muslim country because of the Islamic State becomes part of the CCP, I do believe for Japan's better economic future is that let Japan be controlled by the Islamic State if saying if the Islamic State is controlled by China, then is better for Japan to be governed by the Islamic State for a better economic future.
So it's fascism to have the ability to protect oneself ?
It's fascism to have fascism. Abe's ideology looks a lot like fascism, and Japan has drifted deep into fascist/imperialist territory before. Hope that clears up some confusion.
When it's under teh same families and party that were responsible for WW2, Imperialism, and fascism? Yes
It could definitely lead to fascism when you start changing the constitution for such purposes.

I hate minority people who say Abe is dangerous.ofcourse we dont hope for starting war but they dont thinking at all. the word which smells like war they react too much sensitive.

awesom aw im american. i am in huge favor of japan's right to remove article 9. we are allies with japan now, japan should be allowed to grow strong. it will help their country and ours. for americans who disagree: how hard do you think a foreign force would fight to protect america from invasion? nowhere near as hard as americans would. so do you really think the japanese are comfortable relying on a foreign force to protect their country?

Why Japan is not taking refugees?
Because they are smart.
Rick Toboni because people in Japan don't swing so far left enough that they want to destroy what they have built not to mention you can't use racism as a excuse hence no ammo for libertards
when was that before the world became a leftist shithole filled with PC leftards letting in terrorists and savages that would vote for them
or when people actually strode to make a living and shed sweat and blood to earn their right to live there
Kauko Ohjain Where is syria and where is japan? Syria is so close to Europe. And what is smart about rejecting people who just want to get away from war and live in peace?
Rick Toboni If you feel the need to help them then sponsor some middle easterners in your own home. Oh what's that you won't? Leftists are all the same. You expect everyone else to abide by your policies but when you are directly affected oh no we can't have that! You all speak of how moral and righteous you are when it is someone else that has to take responsibility or take the burden but never yourselves in anything you do or say.
Yes I agree, but the Japanese have a history of not liking people who aren’t Japanese, that’s why japan is nearly 100% Japanese
all Japan needs to do is send them anime
pianomaN - Yeah it's so cringy it would kill them

Japan: you do know we popularized that trend 70 years ago right?
I think Japan should have the right to defend themselves and have an army. Why not just rework the article to prevent the country from invading others unless provoked? That way they couldn't move into others territory and start a war themselves and still be able to have an army.
because that leaves a lot of room open for interpretation. What constitutes provocation at a level that justifies war? Is it a foreign leader bad mouthing your country or is it a foreign military crossing into your territory? There's a lot of wiggle room in there. Not to mention you could have people straight up misinform the general public and use it as an excuse to go to war a la Vietnam
+NeoPraetorian That's simple as fuck. Don't sting unless some dumbass wants to swat the bees nest.
+Anne Frank They DO have military forces, but only for territorial defense, they cannot launch an offensive
Girl, they already have the right to defend themselve. But Abe wants the right to attack foreign countries!
You need to tell these Japanese people that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is no Adolf Hitler, he's no Benito Mussolini, and he's no Hideki Tojo either, but rather he's just himself and he has to do the right thing for the sake of Japanese nationals who will possibly be taken captives and hostages abroad by terrorist sponsored Islamic State and the only option is to remilitarize and use it in hostage rescue and anti-terrorist missions and operations.

Have you noticed that those for war are old and weak with those against it being young since the young know that the old won't be sacrificing much whereas the young will be sacrificing everything
That is the most brilliant observation I've ever seen in a RUclips comment.
I tip my fedora to you.
"I'm fed up to ears with old men dreaming up wars for young men to die in"
I actually think it's because Japan has an aging population and the majority of them still hold imperialistic ideas where as the younger generation is used to a Japan with no army. Not cause the younger generation is scared. Yeahhhhhh I'm right

Teufelsnachbar667 "ali" is a shia name. isis hates shias. is they found anyone named ali they would be beheaded
idiot
Oh wow, get a life dude.
namn If you're stupid and ignorant then why even bother to make a ignorance-based statement? Ali is an arab name, one that is quite popular among arabs as a whole, be it Shias or Sunnis. It's funny how you call someone an idiot when obviously you are the "idiot".
Atheistmonk lol the irony. you act like you know what your talking about.
i AM a shia. my cousin lives in an arab country. my parents are from a country which is majority sunni (pakistan). the pakistani community where i live includes many sunnis as well as many many shias.
and also, i have met my fair share of sunni arabs as well as even more shia arabs.
i can tell you. a majority of the time someone named ali will be a shia. ali is the name of the first shia imam and the 4th caliph of the rashidun caliphate who's descendants were the 12 shia imams.
now maybe now and then a sunni arab may have the name ali, but a vast majority of the time it will be a shia. there are other mostly shia-exclusive names as well. like jafar, kazim, reza, hassan, hussain.
(there are other shia names but the ones i listed are ones that are hugely common among shias i have never met a sunni with them.)
so before you call someone and idiot make sure you know what you are talking about.
you stupid fucking *idiot*

Whatever Japan decides to do, I support them. Much love and respect from NorCal, USA.
5:05 Why'd you censor what he actually said? What he actually said is quite concerning, he said "from my perspective I want to eliminate them", as in he thinks left wingers should be eliminated anyway so he honestly doesn't feel bad that they died. Sounds a lot like how a certain Adolf thought...
What that man said at 9:13 summarizes it "The islamic state doesn't have a cause, they also don't have justice. It is not the Muslim way"
Of course they have a cause - it's in their name; they want to establish an Islamic state in Syria and Iraq... you know, the 'Islamic State of Iraq and Syria'... ISIS? Ringing any bells?
LeatherCladVegan but Syria and Iraq are already muslim
@@kirey5477 Currently, Syria is a republic (meaning it has a President - by the name of Al-Assad; a secular Ba'athist [Arab socialist]), while Iraq is a democratic republic (meaning it has a President, and the citizens have the right to vote - even the women).
They are not caliphates - a caliphate is essentially a supreme dictatorship run by a Muslim chief. So, just because the majority of people are Muslim, that does not mean the country is run as an Islamic caliphate. 'Muslim' does not equal 'Islamic', in the context of 'populations and their respective governments'.
Hope that helps :)

I understand the concerns of japanese people, military and war have a close history that is a nightmare haunting the nation. No body wants to go to war regardless of their capability.
Ahmad Al-Shafai - I would like to agree, but the G. W. Bush administration showed that is not true. Bush was going to war no mater what. His administration was on the ropes and he needed a war to improve his standing, and his backers wanted to make a lot of money at our expense, and unfortunately, it worked! What's more, another republican president might well do the same, for there is a lot of money to be made in war.
nightlightabcd Then we need to make certain that another Republican never takes power again. We have that ability, if everyone gets out and votes.
***** What about Rand Paul, he's more pacifist than Clinton and he's a Republican. Parties mean shit, you need to research candidates. I know it sucks, but we only have two parties in America.
Steve Young- I have heard Rand Paul speeches, instead of attacking other countries, which I would give him some credit for, he would be attacking Americans and the country! I have heard him and he is just another Republican.
