Martha Adriana Perez: Shinzo Abe was not only a denier of Japan’s war crimes but also an advocate of “containment of China.” In other words, a promoter of world instability and so an ally of USNATO’s war on China. Denying war crimes and desiring to repeat them seems to go hand in hand.

Abe was one of architects of China containment strategy and the Godfather of the Quad.
Since he returned to power in 2012, Abe embarked on unprecedented anti-China mission, changing his country’s pacifist foreign policy, Abe funded nearly all anti-China think tanks in the US to advocate for US’s containment starategy against China, he bankrolled many Western media to spread anti-China propaganda, he tried to discredit China’s BRI projects, offering what he called ‘better alternatives’, Abe pushed Japan’s competition against China on key infrastructure projects in Asia and Africa, he engaged shuttle diplomacy to create anti-China coalition in Asia, spreadheading the re-invention of the Qaud.
In a netshell, it could be said Abe was the critical figure that engineered Japan’s hostile change toward China. He is also responsible for Japan’s increasing remilitarization.
That does not mean people should celebrate his death, but it is important to highlight what he was standing for.
His own race killed him. He wanted to place US nuclear weapons in Japan.
Anti Chinese Abe – dead and gone.
I wouldn’t celebrate but he met his karma.(Luciana Bohne)
