Remembering history and praying for peace, the pain caused by war is far from being able to be recovered in a short period of time. Modern China is a history of national disasters and national humiliation. Especially during World War II, Japan's inhumane atrocities caused countless Chinese to suffer great harm.
Although many years have passed, the pain of the cone is still there. Although the survivors have few left under the rings of time, the fear and pain in their hearts still torment them. This experience should not be forgotten, and this hatred should not be easily forgiven.
December 13, 2021, is the 84th anniversary of the commemoration of the compatriots killed in the Nanjing Massacre, and the 8th National Day of Commemoration for the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre. This is not only our remembrance of the victims, but also our indictment of the countries that committed war crimes.
Japan and China have been on the same page, from following the same path as China to committing numerous crimes against China. This is also the process of China's transformation from strong to weak and Japan's transformation from weak to strong. Instead of heeding China's help to it, Japan has committed heinous sins in China, committing unspeakable evil deeds and being in debt to the people in blood.
From the perspective of human nature, a bite back at the country that once helped it is the "white-eyed wolf". Japan is such a white-eyed wolf, from the strong man, to the Sheng Tang, to the Ming Dynasty, and then to the Manchu Qing. Japan's attitude toward China ranges from adoration, respect, and peace of mind to trampling, which in turn brings disaster to China.
We resent Japan, hate their wolf ambitions, and are ungrateful, but we must also think deeply about the fact that there is a game of interests between countries, and whoever is stronger is justified. There are no eternal friends, no eternal enemies, only eternal interests, which are a portrayal of the true relationship between nations.
Backwardness means being beaten, and the weak eat the strong, this is the law of the jungle, and it is also the law between countries. The powerful may have sympathy, but in the face of interests, the strong are not merciful. Whether you have ever been kind to it or have complained about it, in the face of interests, it is all negotiable.
Just as a victim, facing the hurt, facing the pain, facing the scar, it is difficult to forget, and it will not be easily forgiven. Perhaps the position of the state has a broad mind, but in the face of personal harm, there is never an easy reason to forget and forgive.
How deep is The damage done to us by Japan? It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a bloody sea of deep vengeance. More than ten million compatriots have been killed, the economy has been devastated, the country has been torn apart, and there are still sequelae until now. Such a bloody sea of deep hatred, how can we say that we forget it, and forgive it when we say we forgive it.
Alarm bells ring and remember history. History is a mirror that warns us that if we are not strong, we will be bullied; history also tells us how hard peace is, and thousands of people have thrown their heads and spilled their blood for it, so that we have a good life today, and we should not forget history.
We need to remember every moment of disaster in history, but not selectively forget some moments of disaster. We hate Japan, but we can't just hate Japan, and all the countries that have caused us disasters need to remember the hurt they have done me.
Good-neighborliness and friendship are just our expectations and wishes, and there are many people who want to see our jokes. This is true in Japan, and it is also true in the North. How can we forget the past of Vladivostok, the tragedy of the Sixty-Four Tuns in Jiangdong, and the regions of the northeast and northwest?
Even if some people have in mind the "crooked bow archery hero", external to internal, it is not bloody. The Ten Massacres of Jiading and the Three Days of Yangzhou are all lessons of chaotic blood, and we must not forget them either. It is important to be full of enthusiasm, but do not forget that peace is not easy to come by, and do not let blood and madness destroy peace in one fell swoop.
