Japan's nuclear wastewater discharge has not been effectively solved, and now environmental problems are exposed! This matter is actually related to the US military stationed in Japan?
Recently, according to Japanese media reports, Tokyo's groundwater was polluted, and this public health incident is inextricably linked to the leakage of foam fire extinguishing agent caused by the US military stationed in Japan many years ago, which may be regarded as a kind of "retribution".
According to the US military stationed in Japan, although they had a leak of foam fire extinguishing agent before, they did not admit that it spread beyond the US military base.
Perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances are the main pollutants produced by the leakage of foam fire extinguishing agents, and among the groundwater pollutants tested by Japan, the most important pollutants are perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances.
In fact, the US military stationed in Japan has also caused many "sensational" incidents in Japan. Previously, the US military officially admitted that the US military stationed in Japan was suspected of a scandal involving "drug" trading, which is a bottom-line problem for the international community, and this behavior of the US military naturally angered the Japanese people and caused strong dissatisfaction.
Not only that, the US military stationed in Japan also committed various crimes in Japan, among which the famous "Okinawa South Incident" caused a sensation in the world at that time, even so, Japan did not come up with due countermeasures to sanction the US military stationed in Japan, and it is precisely because of this that the US military stationed in Japan has become more and more arrogant, and scandals about them are often exposed to this day.
Under normal circumstances, no country can endure such humiliation, but Japan can do so, one has to be surprised! However, there are "traces" that Japan can do so.
On the one hand, Japan, as a defeated country in World War II, was subjected to a series of sanctions by the international community after the end of the war, and the degree of "supervision" was very strict, so that the US military had the opportunity to land in Japan, and this island was for decades.
In addition, the time has come today, and the main factors affecting the behavior of US troops stationed in Japan are not only historical reasons, but also the impact of Japan's attitude towards the United States. Because Japan has long pursued a "pro-American" diplomatic countermeasure, it can be described as "obeying its words" and treating the United States as a "big brother."
The "big brother" made a mistake, how dare the "little brother" speak? Even though the Japanese people can be said to hate the US military stationed in Japan, the Japanese authorities are "unmoved" and only shout "verbally" for all kinds of improper behavior of the US military, which cannot effectively stop their actions.
That hasn't changed today. Take the detection of groundwater pollution in Japan this time, the US military stationed in Japan can be said to be absolutely suspicious, but in the face of their attitude of denial, the Japanese side can only ask for a more detailed leak report, and dare not go to the US military base to carry out field investigation. You must know that this is already a major event that can affect public health in Japan.
It is not difficult to see that if this continues, the contradictions between the Japanese people and the US military stationed in Japan will become deeper and deeper, and large-scale popular protests have already occurred in Okinawa. Its purpose is to demand that the authorities refuse the stationing of US troops in Okinawa, and even bluntly say that they hope that US troops will "get out."
However, due to the "careful thinking" of the Japanese authorities, it is likely that the wishes of the people will not be realized. Because if the United States is rejected, then it is likely to directly provoke the United States, and the natural interests of the "pro-American elements" in Japan will not be guaranteed, and at the same time, it may also bring "sanctions" in other fields. And this is also the bitter result of Japan's blind obedience to the United States.
The Japanese authorities' disregard for the voice of the people is really chilling! I can't believe that if this is the case for a long time, will it be able to solve the problem "calmly" the next time the scandal of the US military in Japan is exposed?
If it wants to eliminate hidden dangers, Japan should reflect on its attitude towards the United States as soon as possible. Blind obedience will only encroach on its own interests in the end, and following the United States to instigate regional tension will bring further instability to Japan's surrounding environment.
And Japan can now be said to be a typical example of "good and evil will always be rewarded". They have always "poisoned" the world because of the "nuclear wastewater" incident, but today they were also "poisoned" by others. I wonder if they can announce the so-called "harmless drinkable" initiative this time?
After all, if local residents drink such polluting groundwater, there is a high risk of large-scale sanitation incidents, and Japan's public health system may face serious challenges, and it is not known how Japan will protect people.
It is hoped that both the United States and Japan can proceed from the perspective of the interests of the people, publish a detailed report on the leakage incident as soon as possible, and properly handle the follow-up work. It also gives the local people a safe drinking water environment.
Finally, Japan should understand from this incident that environmental pollution is a major event with wide-ranging impact, "you have been exposed to the rain, you must protect other people's umbrellas", do not let such crises spread to innocent other countries, and it is also your top priority to deal with "nuclear wastewater"!
