China has been warned to stay alert to the possibility Japan will intervene militarily in the event of an attack on Taiwan.

A research paper said recent gestures of support for the island indicate that Japan and the United States have been discussing the scenario and are making plans to deter Beijing from using force to take the island.

Unless US military sets up a permanent base in Taiwan, there will be no credible deterrence for Chinese military action.

That sounds like an invitation for war, more like an encouragement rather than a warning.
 
Instead of deterring, I feel like Japan's participation will actually increase China's hostility and war determination... The Chinese public will likely support the war even more with Japan in it, rather than without... This will give them a chance to settle scores for all the atrocities Japan did in the previous war..
 
Unnecessary drama,China should settle the island issue with Japan,maintain status quo or a guarantee it wouldn't force capture Japanese island.And Japan wouldn't bother,remember nations seek their on security and agenda nomatter how much they seem to cater to others .Only reason Japan cares about Taiwan is because it feels with Taiwan in control, China would be more menacing on Japan and their islands.
Japan trying to prevent reunification of Taiwan and China trying to capture Japanese controlled islans is both wrong.

what Japanese controlled islands?

china has no intention to take over or invade the japanese home islands.
their dispute is over uninhabited islands. you calling them Japanese controlled already shows your bias, since Japan does not control them, china has more ships around it than japan does, if anything its chinese controlled. so japan is the one that should stop trying to capture chinese controlled islands. you know, the ones they stole through war, while crying at the same time about wanting to get back islands russia took from them in war, bunch of hypocrites.

additionally like many others have said, taiwan doesn't involve japan, but if japan wants to join any war there then it'll boost chinese moral by at least 100%, the chance to shoot at some japanese will have the recruitment offices working overtime to deal with all the people wanting to join.

I'm not talking about Japanese homeland,China doesn't have the ability or viability of invading Japan,at least for now and some decades to come.
The concerned islands are legally owned by the Japanese gov who bought it to prevent a tokyo hyper rightwing gov from purchasing it,hence it's Japanese controlled,and by sending navy to contest that only portrays China like a lawless thug, the Chinese claim has no historical or current international legal basis anymore. Any Chinese contest over islands owned legally and historically by Japan ,leaves no room for Chinese to be seen as a fair agent in the SCS. Even if Japan didn't had rights legally or historically(which they do) China shouldn't have been so unempathetic in antagonizing a nation over irrelevant rocks,the geopolitical significance of Japan is way more important,if Japan was made an ally instead of an enemy,China would have no reason to bother who controls anything between China and Japan,
China basically donated vast swaths of lands so generously to Pakistan,Russia ,Afghanistan but willingly antagonistic to Japan over nationalistic politics for politicians' personal interest.

Either Chinese side is misguided in their claim due to heavy anti-Japanese ideology or they are willingly acting like this to stroke nationalism and capture islands using superior numbers,that's still very wrong and deserve condemnation as any self serving wrong policy by any other gov.

China may have deserved sympathy in the war against Japanese side,(though I personally don't think Chiang Kai sek's side deserve any sympathy.)but this isn't 1936,in 2021,China has no rights in antagonizing people who were not even born back in 1936 for their ancestor's actions. It's like harassing kids of criminals who themselves have committed no crime on their own,under state sponsored anti japanese propaganda lens,Chinese seek to harras the very kids ,and in such situation the criminal isn't the kid.The situation is like this now.

China shouldn't be so insensitive and antagonistic to a nation which is so important and so powerful,China can be so generous to Pakistan ,why not try a bit toward Japan,the dividend would be way more greater in geopolitical terms.

Japan has a very tough attitude towards China, and has a soft attitude to Russia and the US, although Russia and the United States are two countries took away a lot of Japanese territories after World War II. The reason is that China is not brutal like Russian and American
 
Japan has ever been so silent.... I am telling right now this is bullocks Japan will not intervene or fancy facing China ever unless it was attempted on and it was last resort

There's something called generation karma. You can't erase it. Debt can be forgiven but not karma. Even Western texts like the Bible has examples where the forefathers committed some crime or sin and the kids are maid to pay for it until X generations have passed.
