Are there any China people on the Ryukyu Islands?

We should not only take the initiative on the Diaoyu Islands issue, but also forget the sovereignty of Ryukyu. According to international law, Ryukyu is not Japanese territory. Why should Japan set up a county there to declare its sovereignty? In particular, this greedy country is getting its hands on our territory, and acquiescing in the occupation of Ryukyu can only encourage its arrogance. What's more, Japan's reason for proposing that Diaoyu Island belongs to Japan is that it once belonged to Ryukyu. If the government recognizes the rationality of Okinawa's legal status, Japan's claim to the Diaoyu Islands will become reasonable, at least in Japan. Therefore, for the sovereignty of Diaoyu Island, for the legitimate interests of Ryukyu people, for the dignity of international law, and for peace and justice, only in this way can we confidently defend our sovereignty; Only in this way can China be regarded as a big country with a sense of responsibility and justice. For a long time, we have been used to passive beatings, never knowing how to take the initiative to attack, or even how to attack and attack. Simple passive defense can only become the object of long-term prosperity of others. "I am a fish under the sword" is the usual ending for the weak to face the strong. So China can't bully others. If others bully us, they will violently fight back. This is our job. We have a diplomatic principle of non-interference in other countries' internal affairs. Do we interfere in other countries' internal affairs by intervening in the Ryukyu issue? Obviously not! According to international law, Ryukyu is not Japanese territory, so we have not interfered in Japan's internal affairs or threatened Japan's sovereignty. There is no doubt that Ryukyu is not the territory of the United States, and naturally we have not interfered in the internal affairs of the United States; Ryukyu is not an independent country, and our intervention is naturally not interference in Ryukyu's internal affairs. Since we don't interfere in internal affairs, Ryukyu has a deep historical relationship with China, and it has been forcibly linked to the sovereignty of Diaoyu Islands by Japan. What reason do we have to participate in the Ryukyu issue without hesitation?

Ryukyu was occupied by Japan twice before and after, but the Ryukyu people's dream of rejuvenating the country has never been extinguished and they have been struggling from beginning to end. After the end of the Cold War, although the United States supported and encouraged national independence movements around the world, such as Chechnya in Russia and East Timor in Indonesia, it ignored the Ryukyu Restoration Movement, hoping to provoke tensions in East Asian countries and worried about the final reconciliation between China, Japan and South Korea. The feud between China and Japan began in the Ryukyu Islands and must end here.

When Japan just occupied Ryukyu, in order to put out the national consciousness and the wave of independence of Ryukyu people, it forced "Japanization" by various soft and hard means. At that time, Ryukyu people had been deeply sinicized. Although Japan has been "imperial" for 70 years, the culture accumulated in China for hundreds of years is still deeply rooted. Ryukyu people use a completely different Chinese dialect from Japanese, and their customs and social culture still belong to China. Accent belongs to Minnan dialect and Taiwan Province language family, and has its own unique history. It adopts the lunar year number of China, and its festivals and celebrations are similar to those of China. In the late World War II, the United States attacked Ryukyu Island, and the Japanese forced Ryukyu people to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff, or simply killed Ryukyu people to cope with the lack of food in Ryukyu. This battle reduced the population of Ryukyu by a quarter. About 200,000 people died in the fighting. At the last minute, the Japanese army "far-sighted" to disperse the last symbol of Ryukyu independence-the palace guard. The palace was razed to the ground in the war. Since the founding of Ryukyu, all the documents and archives of the royal family have been burned, and the 750-year-old cultural accumulation of Ryukyu has been completely lost. 1938+0972 After the United States "transferred" Ryukyu to Japan, Japan implemented "compulsory national education", wearing Japanese clothes and eating Japanese food in order to completely eliminate China culture. Every Ryukyu child must enter a school that can only speak Japanese and learn Japanese culture, and receive at least ten years of enslavement education. In order to eliminate the Chinese dialect in Ryukyu, each class will make three "dialect cards" from primary school. Whoever speaks Ryukyu Chinese dialect will get the card, and the cardholder will not pass it on to the next one until he finds another dialect speaker. After school, the last three students who get the cards must stay and clean the classroom. Therefore, many primary school students who get the cards do not hesitate to fight with their classmates, forcing them to blurt out "pain" or "asshole" in dialect to turn cards to avoid punishment. This makes Ryukyu "Japanese". Until now, Ryukyu people have not forgotten their history and ancestors. In fact, most Japanese don't admit that Ryukyu people are Japanese, but they think that Yamato national talents are real Japanese. So the Japanese government doesn't care.

1In August, 1996, three American soldiers at the US military base in Ryukyu conspired to rape a Ryukyu girl who was only 12 years old, which triggered an unprecedented anti-American wave in Ryukyu. The "Ryukyu independence" movement, which has been shaken many times, has once again become a hot spot, and Ryukyu people have heated discussions in the streets and lanes. A history book named "Independence Day of Okinawa (Ryukyu)" in the bookstore began to sell well, calling on the people of Ryukyu to strive for independence from Japan. It tells people "we are not Japanese" with history and "the history of Ryukyu Kingdom" with irrefutable information. On September 8, the people of Ryukyu held a referendum on "the retention or abolition of US military bases", and Ryukyu FM radio station conducted a poll on "whether Ryukyu is independent", and the call for Ryukyu independence set off a new climax. The results of the referendum show that the people voted unanimously not to accept the US military base. What's more, he refused to accept the decision made by the Japanese government on his behalf. This made the Japanese high-level officials like ants in hot bricks, and finally gave Ryukyu a huge financial allocation. Like foreign heads of state, he also solemnly met with the governor of Okinawa Prefecture, repeatedly apologized, and even fooled around. 1in March, 1997, on the occasion of US Secretary of Defense Cohen's visit to Japan, another scandal of rape and abuse of Ryukyu women broke out in the US military stationed in Ryukyu. An American soldier threw a Ryukyu woman over his head and fell on the bed, breaking several bones. April 17, 100 representatives of Ryukyu residents' groups, wearing Ryukyu national costumes different from those of the Japanese, protested at the top of their lungs in front of the Japanese parliament, which deliberated the US military garrison bill. However, despite the strong opposition of the Ryukyu people, the Japanese parliament forcibly passed the US military garrison bill.

Although China people know little about the Ryukyu issue and the government never publicizes it, the Kuomintang government during the Anti-Japanese War repeatedly stated that 1938+0938 in April, Chiang Kai-shek delivered a speech at the provisional national congress of the Kuomintang: "Since Meiji, Japan has had a consistent plan of mainland aggression. In the past Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, it invaded Taiwan Province Province and Ryukyu, and after the war, Japan and Russia annexed Korea and invaded our Lushun and Dalian ... It used Taiwan Province Province as a base for advancing southward. 13 On October, Song Ziwen, Foreign Minister of China National Government, held a press conference in Chongqing, pointing out that the land occupied by Japan after the war should be returned to its original owners, "China should take back the four northeastern provinces, Taiwan Province Province and Ryukyu", China's territory was traded, and Ryukyu was transferred to Japan together with the "administering power" of Diaoyutai. 19866.666617 but this was opposed by the landlord Ryukyu people, who "gathered in downtown" and gathered overnight to protest against the United States and Japan, and organized several delegations to Taiwan Province Province to cry to Jiang Zhongzheng. The delegation implored President Jiang to speak at the United Nations for the sake of "family" in Chinese. Allow Ryukyu to be independent or incorporated into Chinese territory. Although this method of "returning" Ryukyu has no basis in international law or local voting, Zhang Chai's "Ryukyu Revival Movement" with the open support of the Kuomintang lasted for a long time. Maybe that's the case. Most domestic citizens who are familiar with Ryukyu claim that Ryukyu belongs to China and should be returned to China's territory, but this is exactly the opposite of Ryukyu's Zionism.

Ryukyu's Zionist Movement holds that Ryukyu has been an independent country since ancient times and has close ties with China, Korea, Southeast Asian countries, especially China. China's 5,000-year-old civilization has given us far-reaching influence. Ryukyu has been using Chinese characters and Chinese, actively participating in cultural exchange activities with China, sending overseas students to China, and attracting skilled craftsmen from China to teach technology in Ryukyu. Ryukyu's civilization and culture have been promoted as never before. Ryukyu is a sovereign and independent kingdom, and the people of Ryukyu have always had a good impression on China. Looking back on the previous history, in desperation, the Qing government actively ran, protested and negotiated the hegemonic behavior of Japan's occupation of Ryukyu, although it finally gave up. China has done everything for Ryukyu, and we will never forget this feeling. Japanese aggression deeply hurt Ryukyu. The history and culture of Ryukyu were completely destroyed, and the Ryukyu people fell into Japanese colonial rule. We firmly condemn and protest the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese, and hope that the China government will give more help to Ryukyu independence in the history of centuries-old relations. The Ryukyu Zionist Movement is a political party that needs the help and support of the people of China. It is hoped that the two sides can strengthen communication and actively promote Ryukyu's independent thought, so that Ryukyu can get rid of Japanese slavery. Ryukyu is a very independent kingdom and a country.

The basic program of Ryukyu's Zionist Movement has the following five points: First, Ryukyu has been a sovereign and independent country since ancient times, and the Ryukyu people do not recognize Japan's colonial rule over Ryukyu Islands; Second, restore the sovereign independence and territorial integrity of Ryukyu State and establish Ryukyu State; 3. When necessary, we will negotiate with other political organizations or groups to set up the "Ryukyu Provisional Government"; Fourthly, the political system adopted after the recovery of Ryukyu should seek the opinions of all political parties and the wishes of the people; 5. Oppose any individual, group, party or country to question Ryukyu independence. The Ryukyu Zionist Movement has been fighting for the restoration of Ryukyu independence!

However, we can't take it for granted that Ryukyu belongs to China. Although it was once a vassal state of China, it was never formally incorporated into our territory. Therefore, we can't declare our sovereignty over Ryukyu, otherwise we can only give the United States and Japan a handle, which is conducive to solving the Ryukyu issue and defending the sovereignty of Diaoyu Island. However, this is by no means the reason why we don't help Ryukyu become independent. Because of Japan's greed and shameless, Diaoyu Island has long been associated with Ryukyu. In fact, we have long been unable to stay out of it. We have no better choice but to help the Ryukyu people and ourselves. Ryukyu Islands, located between Japan and Taiwan Province Province, are a long and narrow island chain across our Pacific Ocean gateway. The United States and Japan have been trying to build an island chain to stop us from going out to sea. The independence of Ryukyu is the complete rupture of the first island chain. For a long time, the US military presence in Ryukyu has seriously threatened China's security. It also restricts our access to the Pacific Ocean more seriously. After Ryukyu becomes independent, we will become an extremely friendly country with Ryukyu, and the vast Pacific Ocean will open its arms to us without hindrance. More importantly, the independence of Ryukyu will help to solve the problem of Taiwan Province Province. Without Ryukyu as a military springboard, the United States and Taiwan independence would be disheartened, and Japanese forces would be afraid and desperate. As long as the Japanese government and people resolutely intervene, the independence movement of the Ryukyu people will be surging. Not only the US military will sit on an active volcano, but even Japan will be in a hurry, and the real influence of the United States and Japan on Taiwan independence will naturally be greatly reduced. Japan originally linked Diaoyu Island with Ryukyu Islands in order to stimulate China to prove that Diaoyu Island does not belong to "Japan's Ryukyu". Since Japan says that Diaoyu Island belongs to Ryukyu, we desperately declare that Diaoyu Island does not belong to Japan. Didn't it indirectly prove that Ryukyu belongs to Japan? Doesn't that mean that the China government agrees with the Japanese occupation of Ryukyu? It can be seen that our government has long been taken in by the Japanese, and has never been able to wake up from Mao Zhou's short-sightedness on the Ryukyu issue, as can be seen from the China version of the world map that Ryukyu is still within the territory of Japan. Unfortunately, the Japanese are not satisfied with China's acquiescence on the Ryukyu issue, but are pushing their luck to put on airs and really want to rob the Diaoyu Islands with us. Ironically, our leaders are keen to verbally condemn Japan. In this way, the actual control of the Diaoyu Islands fell into the hands of the Japanese. Since Japan actually controls Diaoyu Island, it greedily continues to get its hands on Taiwan Province Province. If Taiwan Province Province is really independent, it will definitely continue to get its hands on our mainland until we are really torn apart into small pieces. Therefore, we can't retreat, and there is no room for retreat. We have been cornered by Japan, except to jump up and shout and fight back violently. China government, please remember that Ryukyu is the talon of Japanese reaching out to China. Only by cutting off this talon can the Japanese people wake up! Japan is not in the southeast!

Therefore, China should not only pay attention to the Ryukyu issue, but also get involved in a high-profile and comprehensive way! We must completely abandon the passive defensive posture. "High-profile attack, attacking the enemy must be defended" is our best strategy, which can win us the greatest strategic space if our opponents are in a hurry! The Japanese government should face up to the Ryukyu issue and clearly point out that "Ryukyu is not Japanese territory" and negotiate with the United States and Japan from the height of international law. Of course, only verbal words can only scare the United States and Japan for a while, and we need to take some concrete actions. We should fully support and promote the Ryukyu Zionist Movement, allow Ryukyu people to set up a Zionist organization in China, and provide necessary funds for the Ryukyu Zionist Movement. Help Ryukyu Zionist organization to collect data and information, and help cultivate all kinds of necessary talents. Of course, on the China version of the world map, it is also very necessary to completely separate Ryukyu from Japan. The purpose is to make Ryukyu people take China as their hinterland and guide Ryukyu people to be more and more keen on restoring the country. Once the Ryukyu people's desire for independence is extremely strong, we will promptly urge them to hold a referendum, as long as the result of the referendum is independence. The jurisprudence of Ryukyu's independent founding has been established. The United States is always under the banner of democracy and human rights. Once Ryukyu declared independence through a referendum, the US military could only slip away quietly. If Japan sends troops to intervene, we will send an army and never allow Japan to run amok again under our noses! As soon as Ryukyu becomes independent, China will sign a comprehensive friendship treaty with him, and the mainland will embrace our former Ryukyu brothers with open arms! But we must remember that Ryukyu can never be claimed as ours, and it is more beneficial to maintain an independent Ryukyu than to join China!

There is no doubt that Diaoyu Island belongs to us. However, if we only emphasize that Diaoyu Island is not Japanese, we will not only be cornered by Japan, but also be passively beaten everywhere. Since Japan insists on linking Diaoyu Island with Ryukyu, we can only pick up the Ryukyu issue. Once we raise the flag of Ryukyu, Diaoyu Island will take a back seat in Sino-Japanese relations, and an international law issue involving the legal legacy of World War II will attract the attention of the international community. If these two international law documents are no longer valid, then the United Nations will lose its foundation of existence, because the United Nations is the product of these two documents. Similarly, it is not only illegal for the United States and Japan to give and receive in private, but also illegal for their troops stationed in Ryukyu. Therefore, the Ryukyu issue is the embarrassment of the United States and the death hole of Japan! The United States and Japan are known as democratic countries, and democratic countries attach the most importance to law and public opinion. As long as China is not timid and the people of Ryukyu still have the desire for independence, then Ryukyu is an excellent card to reverse China's strategic passivity! Seize it quickly, this is the opportunity given by God. Sitting and watching it go can only go against God's will and bear God's wrath!
