On July 8, the news that Shinzo Abe was assassinated attracted heated discussions among many netizens. A considerable number of people on the Internet believed that Abe , although he was the Prime Minister of Japan, had promoted the relationship between us. Many, at least we should not say bad things, even some public figures think so.
But in fact, we can say objectively and fairly that Shinzo Abe is indeed a rare good prime minister for Japan. In order to enable them to develop freely and get rid of a series of constraints led by the United States, Abe has always been the prime minister of Japan during his tenure. Maximizing the interests of Japan, in order to achieve this goal, he had to do some means that seemed to be a compromise to outsiders. He worked hard internally and was humble externally, but he was just a good prime minister to them. .
For us, Abe has always been our opponent, at least we cannot call him a friend. Why do you say that? Because during Abe’s tenure, he was targeting us almost everywhere. I have three reasons to explain all this:
First, Shinzo Abe visited the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan many times. I believe everyone is familiar with this. During Abe’s lifetime, He visited the Yasukuni Shrine four times in total, and despite repeated objections from outside voices, he ignored them all. In other words, in Abe's mind, he did not pay attention to the heinous crimes committed by Japan during World War II, otherwise he would not have done so under pressure, and this in itself is a kind of blasphemy against us.
Second, Abe has repeatedly wanted to revise the " Peace Constitution" that restricts Japan, rearm Japan, and want it to once again embark on the path of independent development and be included in the ranks of world powers. Once such a wish comes true, it will obviously be very detrimental to us.
Third, Abe has intervened in our cross-strait relations many times, such as the Taiwan incident. At that time, our cross-strait relations were relatively tense, and Abe said: "Taiwan's affairs are our affairs." This is undoubtedly a blow to us. a provocation. Because of this sentence, we also made a strong response at that time, and the two sides almost had friction.
To sum up, Abe can only be said to be a good prime minister of Japan. For us, forget it. But why are so many people whitewashing Abe today? I am not sure as well. Compared with Abe, the three prime ministers in history who are truly friendly to China are actually worthy of our praise and should be remembered by us.
ranked first, Toshiki Kaifu , the 76th and 77th Prime Minister of Japan. Among those who are friendly to China, he is one of the few prime ministers who is truly friendly to us. He is the only Japanese politician to lay flowers and observe silence at the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall and the Monument to the People's Heroes.
In 1991, despite the strong opposition from other Japanese parties and people around him, he resolutely visited China as an envoy and sincerely laid flowers in front of the Monument to the People's Heroes to confess his guilt. This was not over yet. In 2000, he went alone to the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall to lay flowers and observe silence.
In the face of various crimes committed by Japan, he has always declared firmly to the outside world: "The various crimes committed by Japan in the past should be deeply reflected on. We must abide by the peace treaty and jointly maintain peace." "What we have done in history For everything I have done, especially the crimes committed against the people of Nanjing, as the Prime Minister of Japan, I sincerely apologize to you.”
Second, Tomiichi Murayama, the 81st Prime Minister of Japan. During his tenure as Prime Minister, he had always opposed Japanese right-wingers. By 1998, he had already resigned as Prime Minister of Japan, but he went to the Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall to mourn and repent without any scruples. He was the first former Prime Minister of Japan. People who came to commemorate our compatriots wrote eight big characters in the memorial hall: "Never forget the past, and be the guide for the future.""
later issued the famous "Murakami Statement": "We must deeply repent for the crimes we have committed in Asia, reflect on ourselves, and learn lessons from history. We should humbly accept historical facts, especially the people of all Asian countries. It has brought great hurt and pain, and we once again express our deep introspection and heartfelt apology. We also express our deepest condolences to all people at home and abroad who have suffered disasters during this period of history. "
The third place is Yukio Hayama, the 93rd Prime Minister of Japan. is also the last prime minister who is friendly to China so far. Everything he has done has put himself in a dangerous situation, but Even so, he still supported us without hesitation.
He first ordered the people around him to publicly demand an investigation into all crimes committed by Japan in its aggression against China from the July 7th Incident to its defeat and surrender; and then he firmly opposed Japan. Visiting the Yasukuni Shrine at home and abroad restricted the behavior of cabinet ministers. Then he believed that the Japanese government should apologize and compensate for the "comfort women" incident. Finally, as the Prime Minister of Japan, he visited China many times and visited The Nanjing Massacre Memorial Museum has expressed condolences and apologized twice. In fact, the above three are the Japanese prime ministers who really deserve to be remembered, because they have indeed admitted, repented, and mourned for the various evil deeds committed by Japan in the past. Pray, now that Abe is dead, some of us are crying, but no one cares about their life and death. Isn't this an irony?
We should not forget those who have helped us, but it is a pity, let alone them. Individuals, how many people know what they have done?
