    From the perspective of world history, since the beginning of World War II, the reason why Japan, as a defeated country, has not been severely liquidated, especially because of the retaliation of the countries invaded by it, is actually because of the protection of the United States. Moreover, until now, Japan's prosperity and development have been inseparable from the United States. It is precisely because of this that Japan is not at all worried about the rise of Russia and the development of our country, and Japan's current security is basically because of the United States.

    Many people wonder what would happen if the United States stopped protecting Japan. Lee Kuan Yew said in one word.

    First of all, it should be noted that the interests of any country are important, and this is especially true for the United States. Therefore, the United States protected Japan after World War II because it could obtain great economic and political benefits from Japan. In particular, Japan should be its leader in Asia, so that it can better influence Northeast Asia, so the United States has stationed a large army in Japan.

    From Japan's point of view, it is also very afraid of the withdrawal of US troops. In the 60s, Japan did everything possible to keep the US troops stationed there, and constantly opened up military bases for the United States, making the US troops stationed in Japan huge. It is precisely because of the protection of the United States that Japan is unscrupulous, does not have to be afraid of Russia, and is also very calm about the development of our country.

    However, from the perspective of the future, under the continuous weakening of the United States, the entire national strength has been sharply reduced, especially the inability to fight foreign wars. Therefore, in the long run, it is very possible that the United States will withdraw its troops from Japan and no longer protect Japan. So what will happen if the United States no longer protects Japan?

    Lee Kuan Yew believed that after World War II, Japan was destined to become a powerful body, and even if it was economically developed, it could not be compared with the world powers. Japan's population is declining, and the future of the country as a whole is very bleak, so once the United States no longer protects Japan. Then there is only one way for Japan to survive and develop, and that is to "give in to China," and Lee Kuan Yew can be said to have broken it in one sentence.

    Japan had been a vassal state of China for a long time in ancient times, and it was only after the weakening of the Qing Dynasty in modern times that it had a foothold, and World War II completely broke its power, that is, Japan could not become a world power. At this time, without the protection of foreign powers, Japan must return to the ancient system, that is, to submit to China, the most powerful country in Northeast Asia and the East.

    More directly, China is already the world's second largest economy, regardless of military, political, scientific and technological development, so in the future even surpass the United States to become the most powerful country. The United States will inevitably not be able to protect Japan, and if Japan wants to survive, especially to resolve the sins brought about by history, then it must become a member of China's sphere of influence. In this way, it is possible to avoid the blows of South Korea, Russia and other countries.

    Once this happens, Japan will return to the Tang Dynasty in China and begin a new round of submission and learning.

    Then Japan will become a rat crossing the street. This is because Japan has offended many countries in recent years because of the support of the United States. If protection is lost, then these countries will inevitably settle accounts with Japan.

    If the United States does not protect Japan, then China will definitely not be able to sit still, first of all, it is necessary to make Japan admit that the war of aggression against China back then, the various crimes they committed, in addition to China, other countries will also find trouble with Japan, Japan is only a small country, but during World War II, it caused devastating damage to many countries, if it were not for the United States to support Japan now, then Japan would not be able to develop like this.

    The United States does not protect Japan, but controls it.

    Because Japan was a defeated country in World War II, according to the Pozdam Agreement, the victorious country had to control the political and military affairs of the former fascist defeated countries.

    Therefore, today Germany and Japan are not fully sovereign countries, and they are all controlled by the United States. It turned out that the former Soviet Union was also involved in control, and after the collapse of the Soviet Union, only the United States carried it out. Britain no longer had the power to control Japan in the East, so Britain was no longer responsible for controlling Japan, and in Germany today there were British troops stationed there.

    Although China was also a victorious power, China had never been able to enforce it, so it had to entrust all control to the Soviet Union and the United States.

    Japan is subordinate to the strong.

    In the thousands of years of Japanese history, only the United States has succeeded in landing on Japan as a winner, and as for China, at home, it does not admit that World War II was lost to China.

    They believe that World War II, the main cause of defeat is the Pacific War, and it should not have happened.

    Japan should not have challenged the United States, in fact, by 45 years, most of China, still under Japanese control, in Nanjing, Pingming died too much.

    It is impossible for Japan and China to come together, and South Korea, the Philippines, and Australia, through cooperation with the United States, and the stationing of US troops in exchange for corresponding benefits.

    For example, Japan and South Korea are protected by US nuclear weapons, and if they dare to use nuclear weapons against the two countries, they will be attacked by the United States.

    1. Japan knows its place in the eyes of the United States.

    2. If Japan does not listen to the United States, it will not have the confidence to face China or even North Korea alone.

    3. In the eyes of the United States, the so-called "allies" are just its client states.

    4. Japan's national character is to bully the weak and fear the hard, and in World War II, its national psychology has been completely defeated by the United States, and it can no longer muster up the courage to confront the United States, but is willing to be a slave of the United States.

    The first is that in World War II, it was mainly the United States that defeated Japan.

    Second, the United States is still the world's sole superpower and still has a decisive position in international affairs.

    Then, the United States needs to contain Asia through Japan, so it promotes Japan's rapid development of science and technology, especially the rise of China, and needs a country close to China to suppress China. So the United States builds military bases in Japan.

    Finally, Japan is an island country, and it has no land neighbors, so it is necessary to mainly develop a good navy, so the Japanese navy is still the strongest navy in Asia.

    As a defeated country, Japan actually lost a lot of rights, and I remember that Japan no longer has the right to take the initiative to start a war, so it can only find a backer.

    In the face of superpowers, alliances are no different from servants.

    The relationship between the United States and Japan can be traced back to World War II, during which Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in a desperate gamble, and then the United States declared war on it and dropped atomic bombs on it, hastening the demise of Japanese fascism. After the end of World War II, Japan, as a defeated country, was also ruled by the United States for a time, and it was precisely for these reasons that Japan had to obey the United States, of course, this also followed the wishes of the United States, the United States did not want to directly destroy Japan, but wanted to give Japan a slap in the face, so that he would not dare to do anything to himself in the future and obediently obey his orders. Proceeding from the interests of the United States itself, this is completely in line with the interests of the United States itself.

    Moreover, if the United States wants to further return to the Asia-Pacific region and expand its interests, it cannot do without Japan's help. It is known that the United States has its troops stationed in Japan, and they are equipped with fighter jets and **, etc. If the United States wants to start a war in the Asia-Pacific region, it can get supplies from Japan.

    Besides, it is basically impossible for China and Japan to join forces against the United States, and to put it bluntly, it is completely impossible. Although our relations with Japan after World War II have been good and bad, recently, due to the dispute over the Diaoyu Islands, Sino-Japanese relations have fallen to an unprecedented bottom. China and Japan have joined forces against the United States, and I think many people in China will be disgusted, especially those who have experienced the war!

    Second, China has always followed a policy of non-alignment, does not form an alliance with any country in the world, and follows an independent foreign policy of peace, so an alliance with Japan is impossible. Third, it is absolutely impossible for the Japanese authorities to ally with China to deal with the United States, because the United States has gained its own interests from Japan, and of course Japan also hopes to obtain its own interests from the United States, and hopes to rely on the powerful power of the United States to help itself obtain benefits. For example, in the Diaoyu Dao dispute, the Japanese hope to get the support of the Americans, and with their support, they will even more brazenly encroach on China's territorial sovereignty over the Diaoyu Dao!

    Of course, it should be noted that Diaoyu Dao has been China's inherent territory since ancient times, and we have the ability and confidence to safeguard the integrity of national territorial sovereignty.

    The house of the country, or between the nations, there are only interests. The United States and Japan are only using each other, and the United States supports Japan in order to contain China and Russia and maintain the hegemony of the United States in the world. If Japan is lost, the United States will directly face China and Russia, and it will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, then the United States will really decline.

    Japan, on the other hand, wants to use the United States to get rid of the shackles of the post-World War II treaties on its own, and wants to make a comeback and dominate Asia.

    Japan knows very well that it does not want to be an American dog, so it wants to secede. Japan mainly has a Japan-US security treaty after the war, so the US military is stationed, and there is a pacifist constitution that cannot expand the army. Japan wants to have friction with China to the brink of war, then expand its military and abolish the pacifist constitution.

    In this way, the US military will leave Japan. Then the United States will lose its Asia-Pacific status. Then the United States helped Japan say that the Diaoyu Islands belonged to them, which means that once a war breaks out, the United States will also send it, and you Japan cannot use this excuse to expand its military and drive out the US military.

    China just doesn't want Japan to become bigger, and it doesn't want the United States to become bigger, so it's so stiff.

    First of all, Japan and China have always been feuding, and without the support of the United States, it will also oppose China. In addition, after the defeat of Japan in the Great Patriotic War, the United States has been stationed in Japan Don't forget that Japan's prosperity is the result of the help of the United States, so there are some economic lifelines that should be secretly controlled by the Americans, not to mention that Japan is now all American-style equipment If you don't listen to the United States, you will fight with people in the future, what will it do to fight?

    In order to maintain its hegemony as the sole boss in the world, the United States has used multilateral or bilateral relations to win over a large number of countries as its allies. The United States supports little Japan because it was completely taken over by the United States after being occupied by the two atomic bombs of the United States, and used each other to act in an embarrassed way.

Japan has not given up on militaristic expansion, and the decline of the United States may lead to the withdrawal of its troops. It will be possible for Japan to strengthen its own military power, which will not be too good for the neighboring countries. At the same time, the lack of allies, the lack of resources in Japan, the lack of manufactured products in the international market, and the decline of its economic status in the international market may affect its relations with other countries, so Japan's relations with other countries will deteriorate.
