Three lies about "China's invasion of Taiwan" Disguised "Japan-Taiwan emergency"

2021/05/07

It's like a "match pump". Burn it off. The burning boss extinguishes the fire himself, but leaves the cleanup to his minions. Of course, the boss is the United States and the child is Japan. The US government has helped Japan with the public and private sectors, fueling a sense of crisis as if Chinese troops would attack Taiwan tomorrow. Ahead of Prime Minister Suga's visit to the United States in mid-April, the United States has created a serious crisis in which the government and the military are approaching a "China invasion of Taiwan." At a joint press conference after the Japan-US summit meeting on the 16th, when Prime Minister Suga stated that "Japan promised the president to strengthen defense capabilities," President Biden said in the U.S. parliament at the end of April, "We do'nt want a clash with China." US will not use force against China, which is vying for supremacy. The purpose of the series of movements by the US administration was to promote Japan's military expansion. Saying that " Top priority is given to Japan" was raised in order to greatly strengthen Japan's defense capabilities with huge funds and enhance deterrence against China. For both the United States and China, both nuclear superpowers, avoiding a military conflict over Taiwan is a supreme order. With Japan in the foreground, the United States is trying to avoid risks. Let's try to uncover the three lies that created the "Japan-Taiwan emergency unity".

■ First lie- "Fear of invasion within 6 years"

It was Commander Philip Davidson of the US Indo-Pacific Army = left photo = who played the leading role in the production of the Taiwan crisis in the US military . First, on March 9, at a hearing of the Senate Military Committee, he testified that "China may invade Taiwan within the next six years ."

"China is increasing its ambition to replace the role of the United States (by 2050 at the latest)," he said. "I think the threat will be revealed in the next 10 years, and in fact in the next 6 years," he said, saying that one of the goals of that ambition is Taiwan. He pointed out that China has been provoking Taiwan's air defense identification zone by invading fighters and bombers in recent years.

He also pointed out that he has released videos of simulated attacks on U.S. Guam, Diego Garcia Island in the Indian Ocean and U.S. military bases in Guam, and Guam of the "Aegis Ashore " system that can shoot down Chinese missiles in flight. Asked for deployment.

The invasion of fighters and bombers into Taiwan's air defense identification zone is far from the intention of the Chinese Communist Party to invade Taiwan. The PLA is on the sidelines of the fact that ships from the United States, Britain, and France are conducting "freedom of navigation operations" in the Taiwan Strait and conducting multilateral military exercises, including the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, in the waters near China such as the East China Sea. I can't do it. Rather, it is the US side that is provoking.

■ Second lie- military balance suddenly changes in China's favor

The second was also launched by US Indo-Pacific Commander Davidson. At the subsequent Senate hearing on April 9, the military balance between the United States and its allies and China in the Indo-Pacific region changed sharply in China's favor, "increasing the risk of China aiming for a one-sided change in the status quo." Strongly warned.

In response, the U.S. Department of Defense expanded its anti-access / area denial (A2 / AD) strategy aimed at disrupting U.S. military operations in the event of an emergency to almost the entire western Pacific Ocean in 2025. Predicting that, he reinforced the commander's warning.

The ministry also said that the number of U.S. military fighter units deployed forward in Japan and Guam is not expected to increase from the current 250, while China will increase the current 1250 to the latest in 2013. He pointed out that it would overwhelm the US military by expanding to about 1950 aircraft, including about 150 fifth-generation aircraft.

However , according to "Air Force 2016 of the World" published by the British aviation magazine "FlightGlobal ", the total number of military aircraft reached 52,107 worldwide, of which 26%, 13,717, was owned by the U.S. military. No. 1 in Dantotsu. The Russian army has 3547 aircraft, the Chinese army 2942 aircraft, the Indian army 2086 aircraft in 4th place, and the Self-Defense Forces 1590 aircraft (3% share) in 5th place. 1429 Korean troops are ranked in 6th place.

The US Department of Defense states that "the number of US military fighter units deployed forward in Japan and Guam = the figure on the left = is currently about 250." However, the Obama administration has launched a priority deployment of U.S. forces in the Asia-Pacific in 2013, the so-called Pivot policy, and the number of U.S. fighter units deployed forward in Japan and Guam is Can be easily increased. It would be easy to move thousands of US military aircraft, which have about 14,000 aircraft worldwide, to East Asia. The Pentagon's statement that "there is no expectation of an increase from 250 aircraft" can be said to be a lie. Even if the number of aircraft cannot be increased by 250, if the integrated SDF aircraft of about 1,600 are included, the force will be equal.

It is certain that China's air power is expanding. However, the expression on the US side is exaggerated. English According to the "Flight Global", the middle of the country mainstay fighter J-7, F-7's China production type of Russian MiG-21. If these are regarded as the same model, the MiG-21 series is 1428 machines. However, the number has decreased sharply in recent years, and the model is being updated to the new 5th generation Chengdu J-10B with high performance. By around 2014, about 300 of the three types had been produced, and by 2020, only 468 had been produced.

■ Third Lie-Taiwan Emergency from the Senkaku Preemptive Attack

Former Self-Defense Forces executives who are now "famous" as military experts are playing the role of Japanese "wolf boys." The Chinese army is likely to launch a preemptive attack on the Senkaku Islands before the attack on Taiwan Island.

One commentator wrote:

Say that "direct crisis, a scenario that Senkaku first is targeted for Taiwan invasion it. Depending on the situation, as a base for China to invade Taiwan, the Senkaku Islands there is also a possibility to come to conquer. Senkaku landed in, make a base base. if there is such a situation, defense operations certified the armed attacks . Self-defense forces is Soku, according to no longer must perform the recapture of the Senkaku using armed. security Treaty, the US military Will also participate. China's invasion of Taiwan and the operation to recapture the Senkaku will be integrated. "

The scenario is "China's first strike on the Senkaku-> Japan-US joint recapture operation in accordance with the Security Treaty-> Taiwanese military support on the main island of Taiwan." According to common sense, the Senkaku preemptive attack is just their unrealistic desire. In other words, it's a debate to try.

On the other hand, a relatively calm commentator said, "The Chinese army invaded Taiwan with special forces disguised as civilians, gathered pro-Chinese forces in Taiwan, and carried out concentrated attacks on VIP terrorism and Taiwan independence in a short period of time. We will be in a coup d'etat to overthrow the current regime. This is extremely difficult, but China has no choice but to take such steps to avoid a military clash with the United States. "

Even this scenario is almost unrealistic.

■ New Japan Handler and Japanese minions

One of the new Japan handlers who will connect with those who fuel Japan's threat to China is former Assistant Secretary of Defense Elbridge Colby, who is responsible for formulating the 2018 US National Defense Strategy under the Trump administration.

Mr. Colby is a good target for coverage in the Japanese media because he makes radical remarks.

At the end of December 2020, he said in an interview with the Asahi Shimbun.

"A state-of - the-art missile appeared at the military parade of China's 70th anniversary . I felt a political message to show off its extremely powerful military power. It has the same or better capabilities as the U.S. military. Weapons are also available. It can be said that the absolute superiority of the US military in Asia has been lost. Japan will be the country most exposed to the threat of the Chinese military. "

"Chinese troops are aiming to prevent US troops from supporting Taiwan in the event of an emergency. We must be wary of possible naval blockades and bombings around Taiwan. The Chinese military 's most desired approach is It will occupy Taiwan in an electric shock and destroy or succumb to the administration. "

Kan visited the United States on the day of April 16 in the " Japan sovereignty to direct Taiwan contingency, the crisis recognized share - based on the Department of Defense officials ," said of the reported in title was told in the newsletter article.

"This is not a problem for the United States, but a problem that is directly linked to Japan's sovereignty . If China gains supremacy in Asia, Japan will lose the most power. Japan will spend its defense budget on total domestic production (GDP). Keeping at around 1% is not a way to confront the greatest security threat after the war, but a minimum of 2%. The Byden administration should not overly relieve pressure on Japan to share the burden. China There needs to be a common understanding between Japan and the United States about the scale of what the military is doing. "

He speaks for the true intentions of the Biden administration. It was pointed out that "Japan will lose the most power in gaining supremacy in China," said Malaysia's former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, who is making steady efforts to build an East Asian community. It is a blasphemy to the people of Asian countries. Coexistence and prosperity are possible even if the national system is different.

Even if the US government and the US ruling class are limited to Asia, "China will take the hegemony and lose the most power in the United States", so the Japanese minions are in danger of saying "Japan will lose the most power" It's fueling the feeling.
