Since the Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shinzo took office, constantly challenging the international community, in the Diaoyu Islands, in the North Korean issue have shown a very tough attitude, come in and put forward to change Japan began to carry out from 1947 "Peace Constitution", can be seen in the country's hard line stance on the issue grow with each passing day.
Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has had two constitutions, 1889Years of the promulgation of the "constitution of the great Japanese Empire" militarism colour dense, given the emperor supreme authority, become an important reason for Japan finally embarked on aggressive expansion.1947Years, in the transformation of American democratic ideology, Japan formulated overhead emperor "constitution of Japan", the Constitution Constitution "than" big Japanese Empire, with obvious internal democracy, foreign peaceful color.
After World War II, America in need of their own interests, to defeat the Second World War Germany and Japan, are modified, to different extent in Germany, almost completely destroyed the fascism, but in Japan, USA team democratic transformation which is not complete, the Japanese right-wing forces never really be destroyed.
Abe Shinzo was re elected as Japan's prime minister, as a representative of the right-wing forces, the peace constitution cannot meet its right-wing ideology of appetite, bound to break the peace constitution, become the face of Japan's new leadership problem.
The so-called "Peace Constitution", is actually the Japanese cabinet system in established democracies, especially in article ninth of the constitution to "give up forever to use the power of the state of war, the threat of force or the exercise of force as a means of settling international disputes, to achieve this goal, Japan does not maintain the land, sea, air and other the forces of war, does not recognize the belligerent powers".
So, why the Japanese politicians increasingly unable to hold oneself back to modify the Ministry aims to prevent Japan towards war constitution?The reaction of the Japanese domestic end behind the politicians and the public thought of what?This paper try to analysis.
The first,Japan's revision of constitution is the Japanese military forces to enhance the performance of.
Now no one deny that Japan is now a strong military power, while Japan has not become a navy, army and air force troops, but the Japanese Self Defense Force has become a non normal state can match.Here we have to introduce the Japanese nuclear capability.
In modern war, nuclear power is one of the country's most sought after, from Iran's nuclear test may be a clue to the development of nuclear weapons North Korea starving.As the only country in the world has been a nuclear attack, Japan knew where the powerful, also more than in any other country to possess nuclear weapons.Then, the Japanese have this ability?The answer is in the affirmative.
Although nuclear materials in Japan is poor, but the Japanese nuclear raw material reserves are amazing.Low levels of plutonium 239 "reactor grade plutonium", after purification of nuclear fuel reprocessing plant, will become a senior "weapons grade plutonium".
Japan's existing 49 nuclear reactors, with an annual output of 10 tons of plutonium.Lithium is an important raw material for the production of nuclear material of lithium deuteride, Japan has successfully absorbed by the material within 4 hours from seawater to concentrate 3.23 times than the extraction of lithium from lithium, this land of ores in the low cost half; in 1989, Japan successfully launch to the moon a "pioneer" detector, to detect the moon a surface containing lithium rich sandstone, and become the world following the Soviet, the third purpose of country.1 tons of plutonium can produce 120 nuclear warheads.With advanced missile capabilities in Japan, with the "surplus stockpile of plutonium" can produce more than 1000 warheads.That is to say, Japan has enough plutonium to make Japan a nuclear power.Coupled with the Japanese nuclear research in the world advanced level, no wonder some Japanese politicians clamored for "can cause a nuclear bomb" in 180 days, must also not out of thin air.
More noteworthy is that in Japan in the rocket technology, also is the nuclear warhead delivery technology has reached the first-class level in the world, today, Japan has 11 rocket 5 series of more than 50 different launch orbit satellite, become a be worthy of the name of the strength of the space powers.If the rocket carrying the satellite into a missile or nuclear warhead, change the flight track, it becomes a ballistic missile or nuclear missiles to attack ground targets.In recent years, Japan has accumulated experiences of the civil nuclear power technology, in many areas has reached the other nuclear countries can not work.
Second.The Japanese Constitution reflects the Japanese politicians have their own political interests and economic interests of the Japanese zaibatsu.By Andouble
On behalf of the Liberal Democratic Party and right-wing forces to win in the upcoming parliamentary elections, must find the winning chips, how to attract more attention and support, the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan made the nationalism of the old brand, in recent years the development of international situation in the world, the background of the rise of nationalism, Andouble see this situation.
But there is a problem, we have to pay attention to is, China domestic media old emphasized a Japanese right wing and a few Japanese and so on, in fact this is inappropriate, but also a kind of self comfort, don't forget, as a democratic country Japan, the election of the ruling party is elected, the coming to power of Andouble to a great extent, the representative of Japan national will, this is as by Japanese hurt Asian neighbours most should be vigilant.
Of course, politicians just in front of the clown, the key is to promote the behind the scenes zaibatsu.Interests such as Mitsui, Mitsubishi heavy industry, Hitachi, Toshiba and so on Japanese zaibatsu behind the form of Japanese politicians the onstage performance of capital.From the Meiji Restoration, with Mitsui, Mitsubishi as the representative of the chaebol dominated Japanese politics.They are combined with the Japanese militarism, become the modern history of Japan, especially the start of World War II arch-criminal.
After the war, USA Team Japan for democratic reform, but America in order to maintain their own interests, not destroy the ghost of Japanese militarism, is restricted to a certain extent, for the Japanese zaibatsu, America just split up, such as Mitsubishi, but with 50 years the rapid development of the Japanese economy, Japanese zaibatsu "the obvious growth, can be said that the Japanese zaibatsu enough to exceed the original Japanese military expansion in the world's permeability, key zaibatsu forces growth is the revival of Japanese militarism and gradually occupied the domestic high ground.
As early as in 1994, the then Japanese Prime Minister Hata in parliament to answer reporters openly said: "Japan does have the ability to possess nuclear weapons".In 1998 July, Japan in the international mechanism of defence, openly opposed the establishment of "non nuclear area in Northeast asia".October 29, 1999 "Yomiuri Shimbun" published the article said, "Japan is ready to develop nuclear weapons, technology and economy of plutonium preparation".In 2002, the Liberal Party leader Ozawa Ichiro publicly said in Fukuoka: "if China excessive words, Japan to manufacture nuclear weapons to 'counter' China; Japanese nuclear power plants in the plutonium can produce nuclear warheads to 4000 pieces, we in the military strength does not lose to the Chinese".
As Japan is the greatest harm Chinese, but did not realize that, although the government dominated the opening up policy, but the folk did not really recognize the fundamental objective of Japanese zaibatsu.In China, everywhere a Japanese car, Japanese products, to recover the Diaoyu Islands in shouting slogans, hand with the Japanese products, let the Japanese plutocrats behind them.
The third amendment to the constitution, Japan is the Japanese public reaction to the high pressure of life.Objective to Japan this nation is more diligent and pragmatic, high speed development since the World War II, also thanks to its high national quality.Japan as a high-speed development train, gallop in the economic development of the road, until 1985, to American led seven western countries signed the "Plaza Agreement", since then, a sharp appreciation of the yen, in Japan America clamor bought at the same time, Japan American was quelled.Japan the high-speed running train slow down, since then, the Japanese economy has sustained "stagnation", by the nature of the impact is the biggest is the Japanese people.
Although the Japanese ordinary income much higher than Chinese, however, we can see, the whole society is a machine with high rotation speed, people living in the same society, as the machine a gear, don't stop rotation.This state of society of Japan led the Japanese domestic some metamorphosis leisure development.As everyone knows the Japanese AV industry, is actually a reaction to Japan this form of society.
Can imagine, living in such pressure society, people naturally have a need for change, the revision of the constitution should be said that to some extent to adapt to such calls.
The fourth amendment to the constitution, Japan is the embodiment of Japanese militarism ghost not to eliminate.Modern Japanese two constitution, promulgated in 1889, "the constitution" Imperial Japanese
cultivated Japanese Militarism; after the Second World War, although the constitution is democratic color a bit stronger, but there is no ghost cut off the Japanese militarism in law.Especially America the indulgence, is a step by step encourages Japanese fascism, if not on the outbreak of World War II, the step by step, connivance, all of East Asia will certainly shrouded in Japanese militarism talons; when the reflection America policy, China should also reflect on, the Japanese policy we fail, in international relations, China emphasizes the don't have feelings, but didn't really practice: international relations, national interests is the fundamental.We too win people by virtue, the generous, especially on the periphery of the generous, but in return have almost no happy ending.
The Japanese right-wing forces if it continues to grow, it is difficult to imagine not extreme militarism.The Japanese right-wing repeated visits to the Yasukuni Shrine, a time for war of aggression whitewash, hurt the feelings of the people of Asia, the Japanese right-wing and militaristic spirit, we must attach importance to.
In order to amend the constitution of the objective, the terrible side reflected, from the Diaoyu Islands "nationalization" to Japan in response to North Korean missile test, actually can think Japan behind it, is to make USA release on the Japanese control, thus truly become an international economic power and political power, military power.
And let us have a look carefully the Japanese Constitution Amendment Act will know, the Andouble administration actually hiding not to be divulged secret, according to the ninety-sixth Japanese Constitutional Provisions, modify the constitution of Japan in Japanese Congress two house more than 2/3 members agree, by the country will launch a referendum bill and get more than half the nation's favor before the implementation.The constitutional amendment on the issue, Andouble advocated to make this change, will launch a referendum to Congress to reduce more than half the members agree, in fact it is for the future of article ninth of the constitution "never to use the power of the state of war, the threat of force or the exercise of force as a means to solve international disputes, to achieve this goal, Japan does not keep the land, sea, air and other forces of war, do not admit of belligerent rights" national modifications to pave the way for.
Japan will continue to find an excuse for their own constitutional amendment, once successful, Japan will immediately become a nuclear power, and the East Asian countries together, plus America powerless to stop the Japanese expansion pace.
