Such an incredible episode man on an increasingly concerning topic. At times living in Japan makes you feel a million miles away from many of the issues in the world today, almost like a bubble. Then you remember, the country is right on the doorstep of several potential massive, unthinkable conflicts and this kind of preparation is essential, if merely only as deterrence. Let's hope a sequel: "I Fought with the Japanese Army" is an episode that need not ever materialise. Keep up the great work mate, this was a brilliant piece of journalism.

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares about more than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." "Better to fight for something than live for nothing." "If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." ps. "Alas, the time of the most despicable man is coming, he that is no longer able to despise himself. Behold, I show you the last man. “What is love? What is creation? What is longing? What is a star?” the last man asks, and he blinks...."

«Provoking a war by militarizing» As a Ukrainian I’m so fucking tired of listening to this shit. Ukraine wasn’t militarizing before russian invasion. Did it help? It is the same thing to say that a girl which is carrying a pocket-knife or pepper spray in the night is the aggressor because she doesn’t want to be raped or robbed. Sometime people will understand that “deescalation” leads only to bigger escalation because neither China, neither Russia, neither North Korea don’t give a shit about conventions, “non-aggression” pacts and other bullshit. What else Japan can do? United Nations won’t do anything as they are useless and we don’t know for sure if USA will take part in the potential conflict. They are 100% right about building up their military, there is nothing to talk about.

@micahbonewell5994 12 күн бұрын

Yep he says in the video that Militarizing to defend yourself has caused wars, yet if one were to look at history and look for instances where a country preparing itself for war has stopped one they would find a wealth of examples. It also something that is much harder to prove since it's harder to prove when a war would have started if not for the military of the defending nation. Yet there also plenty of examples where undefended nations have been attacked. Look at the Colonizer wars (like the Opium Wars, Christopher Columbus, Ethiopia vs Italy), the annexation of Poland-Lithuania in the 1700s (then Poland in WW2), Napoleons Invasion of Spain, and most recently Ukraine. It's also a form of victim blaming, as if the aggressive nations wouldn't have attacked if the defending nation hadn't armed themselves. It's so very toxic and serves as propaganda for Russia and China.

Not how geopolitics works my good man. There's more to deterrent than airplanes and guns. There's a reason why Japan wasn't attacked while it didn't have an army. Not only because of US nuclear umbrella, but because there's very little to gain economically, from invading and occupying land nowadays. Yes, if an enemy attacks you, bases or not it doesn't matter. But ask yourself this: Why do you have an enemy in the first place? And why is your enemy attacking you militarily? And why is it attacking your base and not where you have none?

@@Video2WebbI think it’s a continuation of the propaganda they started after WW2. From a history of battles, warriors and conflicts, present-day Japanese people are the complete opposite - conflict avoidance, seeking peaceful solutions, being non-confrontational - those are all instilled from a young age. That’s also possibly the reason history lessons about WW2 are sanitized. As a result, Japanese people now are some of the most peaceful and non-aggressive people I know. This was done to basically change the country from one ruled by the military to a civilian-driven one like the US. It worked too well, I think. They don’t want to think of even the idea of war. This is why it’s hard to convince regular Japanese people I talk to that arming the JSDF is not inviting war, but preparing for the future - which can be seen as increasingly worrying given China’s recent actions.

When WWII ended, it wasn't like turning off a light switch - horror to good neighbors - I was born in the middle of 1951, and throughout my preteens war was a real presence in our lives. My father's confusion at meeting ex soldiers from the " other side " that " seems like a good guy," my older sister's real fear of nuclear attack, hundreds of war movies, the Korean War didn't help, so many things to try to figure out. Seeing a collection of photographs from concentration camps in my early teens was transformative. And war never stops. The human race doesn't deserve this incredible world we are born on. The USA and so many other nations seem willing to let psychopaths have incredible power while the world burns around them. Even chimpanzees in the wild are learning how to make rudimentary weapons and wage war on neighboring groups.

@@Video2Webb I'm not overly idealistic enough to believe that military force isn't a proven way to enforce peace. There's definitely a place for it. But I also think you can't rely heavily on might to make right, because then you end up in situations like the United States' where - due to their immense military - they tend to put forward the stick 90% of the time that a carrot would work better instead. Both aspects of diplomacy need to be used depending on the situation, but when you heavily invest in your military you typically try and show that it was worth all the billions you spent on it. And when things actually come to blows, governments need to remember that the winning force can't just leave as soon as things are over - the military has to be remembered as, by far the best, forms of destruction _and_ reconstruction. Without the latter, the former has no meaning other than wanton carnage.

As a Japanese, I appreciate your work. There is a lack of proper knowledge of threats in Japan, with many reports critical of the SDF's deterrence efforts due to past history. Of course, the past must not be forgotten, but it is also the responsibility of the nation to protect the current population. As a Japanese citizen, I sincerely hope that the Self-Defense Forces will finish its role as a "sword without drawing" (that can easily change depending on the decisions of the "continent"...). Personally, I am amazed at the Japanese Ministry of Defense for allowing KZbinrs to interview them... It very much shows the changing times. The video was an example of good journalism. Thank you.

Not really, most civilians in Okinawa actually _don’t_ like US bases on their soil. The s_xual assault is rampant from US soldiers, and is a serious issue that seemed to be quite underplayed here. Schools teach children to run away from US military members if they feel even remotely threatened, as new cases pop up weekly of r_pes carried out by US personnel. It’s a huge (and unfortunately overlooked) issue.
