Beware of White Ships Bringing a New World Order.
Japan should be proud of its past. The truth is that when Japan did have a military, it used it for the noblest purpose of all — to free others.
I would like tentatively to share the insights and analysis dated May 7, by Mr. Jason Morgan, Ph.D. (History), an associate professor at Reitaku University, Japan.
The sun rises, and one catches a glimpse of ominous-looking ships off the Japanese coast in the morning light. Squinting for a clearer view, one sees that the ships are flying foreign flags. What is going on?
The country, which has sent the ships, dispatches its envoys ashore. They hasten to explain that it is all in the name of mutual prosperity, and of regional peace.
But this doesn’t make the ships look any less threatening. On the contrary, the unctuous assurances by the foreign potentates only underline the unease felt by the ordinary people of Japan.
