George Glass, U.S. ambassador to Japan, wrote on X: “The mask slips again. Just a few months ago, [Xue] compared Israel with Nazi Germany. Now, he threatens Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae and the Japanese people.”
He’s not wrong on the latter
I imagine China has very little patience when it comes to Japan, given their history.
So… Looks like Sino-Japanese relations are normalizing after Trump stopped threatening both of them.
On Friday, Takaichi said Chinese military actions against Taiwan, such as a naval blockade, would likely qualify as a “situation threatening Japan’s survival,” compelling Japan to take action. Xue Jian, China’s consul general in Osaka, responded on X with a post saying, “The filthy head that recklessly sticks itself in must be cut off without a moment’s hesitation,” per Asahi Shimbun.

so this is more of a if you attack Taiwan, Japan will attack you met with if you attack us we will destroy you, not literally i will cut off your head, aka deliberately misreported twitter drama
also why is it behead and not dehead, hmm
Do we all need a reminder that imperial japan controlled Formosa? Is it not weird that Japan is now saying ‘if there are territorial disputes in out colonial territory, we will be directly threatened, and attack’
its weird to me
Do it.
Japan has no right to comment on any of China’s affairs. Racist ass Japan.
they have a long and terrible history together.
Better said, Japan has a long, terrible history of crimes against China including competitive beheading competitions published in Japanese newspapers like they won a sport, forced sexual slavery, mass rape that lead to executions such as forcing a branch inside a woman’s vagina and yeah. I’d say the beef between them is one sided. Japan also has never issued a single apology or acknowledgement To anyone for what they did.
I’m just saying their history together goes back over a thousand years, and ultra nationalists tend to hold grudges.
That’s China, not East Asia.
edit: meaning the threat, not the photoshopping
Dude, it’s literally the illustration for East Asia taken directly from the Wikipedia-article…
They are thinking southeast Asia.
