Japan's move of turning archipelago into huge powder magazine is suicidal act of dashing toward second defeat

Recently, the military buildup of Japan, a war criminal state, has entered a grave phase day by day amid the frequent geopolitical crises of raising concerns about the outbreak of a new great war in the world.
According to media, Japan is planning to conduct a test-fire of a ship-based electromagnetic gun, an ultra-modern weapon system that continuously launches shells at hypersonic speed by using electromagnetic power, in the near future.
Japan, which started the developing of the electromagnetic gun in 2016, conducted the world's first test-fire of ship-based weapon with a small prototype in 2023 and is going to conduct the test-fire with a prototype for actual war this time.
Japan is making self-estimation that the electromagnetic gun is a "game changer in the battlefield", saying that it is effective both in making an attack on targets on the ground and in the sea and air and in missile defense. At the same time, Japan is openly revealing its military confrontational attempt to use the electromagnetic gun to intercept supersonic weapons of the DPRK and the neighbouring countries in the future.
The appearance of electromagnetic gun, which will be positioned as one of the core means of attack under the guise of "defense", clearly shows that Japan is turning the archipelago into an exhibition venue for various kinds of missiles and a test ground for ultra-modern weapons while getting more undisguised in its attempt at preemptive attack than ever before.
Japan has informally arranged the time and place of the deployment of type 12 surface-to-ship guided missile with a range of about 1 000km and high-speed gliding projectile, a hypersonic weapon, which have already passed through the test-fire stage, and is stepping up the development of a new-type ballistic missile with a range of 3 000km and a ground-launched long-range precision guided missile.
On the other hand, it has completed the plan for forming the surface-to-sea missile unit of the Ground "Self-Defense Force" and is trying to openly conduct missile launching drill in Hokkaido, the doorstep of the neighbouring countries, in the coming June breaking the precedent of conducting it outside the archipelago due to the principle of "exclusive defense".
It is also trying to introduce medium-range air-to-air missiles, air-to-surface long-range cruise missiles and Tomahawk long-range cruise missiles from the US and deploy them for actual war and, not content with this, to jointly produce medium-range air-to-air missile AIM-120 with the US.
Japan is hell-bent on developing new-type ultra-modern offensive weapons such as electromagnetic guns as well as the possession of long-range strike means. This is aimed at enhancing and expanding the utility of preemptive attack directly targeting the DPRK and the neighbouring countries and thus realizing at any cost the old ambition of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere", which has not been achieved, by plunging into a new war of aggression at any time.
Depending on who holds the sword, its character and mission will radically change into a treasured sword for defending peace or into a weapon for aggression.
It is as clear as noonday what disastrous catastrophe will be brought about on this planet if the weapons of mass destruction fall again into the hands of Japan, a war criminal state which stained the vast Asia-Pacific region with blood and inflicted an indescribable war disaster on mankind in the last century.
The Japanese defense chief recently proposed to the US Secretary of Defense an extremely dangerous initiative that Japan, the US, Australia, the Philippines and the ROK should strengthen military nexus, regarding the area centered on the East Sea and South Sea of China and the Korean peninsula as "a theatre of war." This makes it easy to sense Japan's sinister aggressive attempt to launch reinvasion by creating military imbalance and a new conflicting structure in the region.
Various kinds of military moves of Japan to revive the vicious "great Japanese empire" free from the political and military fetters of the defeated nation by taking advantage of the trend of change in the global geopolitical structure while advocating the "severe surrounding security environment" urgently demand that the DPRK fully stockpile the stronger overwhelming power to deter it.
The reckless military buildup of Japan, a war criminal state, to make a preemptive attack on nuclear weapons states while turning the archipelago into a huge powder magazine will be a suicidal act of dashing toward the second defeat.
