否认历史罪责必遭彻底清算 ■裴永桢 81年前的8月15日，日本宣布接受《波茨坦公告》，无条件投降。而今，日本右翼政客不断篡改历史定论、企图突破战后秩序，“新型军国主义”更是成势为患，已严重威胁亚太地区和世界的和平稳定。靠话术美化侵略行径是日本军国主义的卑劣伎俩。20世纪上半叶，日本军国主义势力打着“解放亚洲各民族”的幌子，用“大东亚圣战”“共存共荣”等无耻谎言进行包装，对亚太多国实施野蛮侵略，犯下累累暴行。在中国，日本侵略者制造了遇难者超30万人的南京大屠杀，推行残酷的“三光”政策，还公然实施违反国际公法的细菌战和化学战；在东南亚，制造了马尼拉惨案和新加坡大屠杀，约10万名菲律宾人在一个月内丧生，数以万计的新加坡民众遇害。《远东国际军事法庭判决书》记载，日本在马来西亚、印尼、缅甸、泰国等地制造的大规模屠杀高达100多起。除了血腥屠戮之外，日本侵略者还大肆强征劳工、掠夺资源。日本在二战中大搞强迫劳动，数万名东南亚劳工和盟军战俘在修建泰缅铁路中遭虐待身亡，逾400万名被日军强征的中国劳工因恶劣条件和超强度劳动伤亡。日军甚至强迫中国、朝鲜半岛、东南亚、荷兰等国家和地区的女性充当“慰安妇”。同时，日本以“大东亚共荣圈”为名，疯狂掠夺东南亚国家的大米、石油、煤、锡、橡胶等物资。日本军国主义带给亚太国家的灾难桩桩有据、件件可考。对于自身犯下的滔天罪行，日本却始终没有悔改之意。日本右翼势力在历史认知上频开倒车，处心积虑洗白侵略罪行。他们肆意篡改历史教材，刻意渲染广岛、长崎核爆受害者叙事，否认东京审判正当性，频繁参拜靖国神社，甚至利用AI炮制虚假史料……这些行径不仅深深刺痛了被侵略国民众的情感，更是对战后国际秩序和东京审判正义成果的公然挑衅和严重破坏。与否认罪责一体谋划推动的，是日本在扩军备武道路上的狂飙突进。近年来，日本大幅提升防卫预算，解禁集体自卫权，放宽杀伤性武器出口限制，推动恢复旧时军衔体系，右翼政客甚至抛出“自主拥核”论调。本月初日本公布的新版《防卫白皮书》强调，要从根本上强化“防卫力量”，推行“新型作战方式”，种种规划早已超出自卫所需。日本突破战后和平体制约束的危险图谋昭然若揭。必须警惕的是，日本如今欲借同盟体系打破战后用兵禁忌，用心极为险恶。日本今年派遣自卫队赴菲律宾参加美菲“肩并肩”联合军演，是二战后首次大规模派遣作战部队加入实战联演，并首次在境外发射进攻型导弹。曾在菲律宾欠下血债的日本侵略者，如今却通过精心包装，妄图将演习地域打造成搅动地区局势的“前沿阵地”。这是对所有被侵略国民众的严重侮辱和威胁。如今，越来越多的有识之士愈加看清日本的伪善面目，一个拒不反省罪责、加速重整军备的日本，已成为地区安全的重大隐患。印尼今年发布新版历史教科书，将日本二战期间的“军事占领”改为更具批判意义的“殖民统治”；不久前，新加坡媒体制作播出《揭秘731部队：日本的秘密人体实验》纪录片，还原日军滔天罪行，传播历史真相。历史不容篡改，罪责不容逃避。所有爱好和平的国家及民众都需对日本“新型军国主义”的妄动保持高度警惕。今年是东京审判开庭80周年，日本只有正视侵略历史，真诚反省悔过，才能以实际行动取信邻国。日本若重走军国主义邪路，中国人民不会答应，国际社会不会允许，最终只能以失败告终，遭到彻底的正义审判和历史清算。

Summary

Machine summary

PLA media outlet ran a commentary by Pei Yongzhen on the 81st anniversary of Japan's surrender, cataloguing Imperial Japan's wartime atrocities — the Nanjing Massacre, the 'Three Alls' policy (三光政策), comfort women (慰安妇), and forced labor — and framing Japan's current defense buildup, including its participation in the U.S.-Philippines 'Balikatan' exercise, as 'new-type militarism' (新型军国主义). The piece documents how PLA-affiliated media is using the anniversary to link Japan's wartime record directly to its present rearmament and alliance activities, framing the Balikatan deployment as the first firing of offensive missiles on foreign soil since WWII and casting it as a threat to regional stability. The framing points to a deliberate effort to build a historical-guilt narrative that delegitimizes Japan's security role in the U.S.-led alliance structure, though the article itself is opinion content and does not indicate any change in PLA posture or operational planning.
