  40. #China #WWII #FalseFlags #history

    "On the night of September 18, 1931, Japanese forces from the Kwantung Army staged an explosion along a section of railway under their control near Liutiaohu in the northern suburbs of Shenyang, China. They then falsely accused Chinese troops of sabotage and used it as a pretext to launch a sudden attack on the Beidaying barracks of the Northeast Army and the city of Shenyang. This marked the beginning of Japan's invasion of Northeast China and became known as the September 18 Incident.

    The September 18 Incident was the inevitable outcome of Japan's continental policy of aggression against China, particularly its so-called Manchuria-Mongolia policy. After World War I (WWI), while Japan appeared to uphold international cooperation on the 'China question' under the framework of the 'Washington System,' it nonetheless spared no effort in northeastern China to defend and expand its alleged special interests in Manchuria and Mongolia.

    In 1927, the Tanaka Giichi cabinet convened the Eastern Conference, which formally adopted a policy of using the 'separation of Manchuria and Mongolia' as both the starting point and focus for Japan's step-by-step strategy of invading China and expanding its influence globally.

    When the global capitalist system was rocked by the onset of the Great Depression in 1929, Japan plunged into economic turmoil. Amid this domestic crisis, the previously marginalized militarist forces regained prominence. They aggressively promoted the idea that China's resource-rich northeast was Japan's 'lifeline' and 'vital interest zone' necessary for overcoming its national crisis. After Japan's Kwantung Army launched its war of aggression against China, Emperor Hirohito took no action to stop it, and the Japanese government subsequently endorsed and supported the military's actions. Within less than half a year, Japanese forces had occupied all three northeastern provinces of China and set up the puppet state of 'Manchukuo' to impose colonial rule.

    The September 18 Incident thus marked not only Japan's open defiance of the post-WWI international order, but also the beginning of its unilateral bid to dominate China through war. It was from this point that Japan became the principal origin of fascist military aggression in the East.

    (. . .)

    In February 1932, a League of Nations investigative mission, headed by Victor Bulwer-Lytton and composed of representatives from Britain, the United States, France, Italy and Germany, arrived in China to conduct an investigation. The resulting Lytton Report, released on October 2, condemned Japan's military aggression but simultaneously acknowledged Japan's so-called special interests in Manchuria. The report characterized the incident as the culmination of 'years of conflict'" between China and Japan.

    (. . .)

    The September 18 Incident was not merely the beginning of Japan's large-scale war of aggression against China; it also marked the first flashpoint of localized warfare that would ultimately escalate into the broader conflict of World War II (WWII).

    By launching the September 18 Incident, Japan swiftly created an irreversible fait accompli of territorial aggression in China. This brazen move not only shocked the international community but also emboldened fascist forces elsewhere in the world.

    Japan's rapid and unpunished seizure of Northeast China sent a powerful and instigative signal to other authoritarian powers. Benito Mussolini was reportedly encouraged by Japan's aggression to pursue his own invasion of Ethiopia. Likewise, Adolf Hitler repeatedly cited the situation in the Far East in internal discussions, using Japan's unchecked aggression as evidence of Western weakness. The Japanese example provided him with both the confidence and the strategic template to openly violate the Treaty of Versailles and remilitarize the Rhineland."

    1776 was a revolt from the nascent criollo #oligarchy.

    the slaveocrats & their colonial managerial class, staged #falseFlags like The Boston Tea Party, in an attempt to frame First Nations for crimes against the crown ―as merciless Indian savages. their end goal: for George III to arm them for a genocidal & native slave-catching war westward.

    when the king refused, the "insurgents" ―led by slaveocrat George Washington―, went to war.
