"...Japan’s US-encouraged remilitarization..."

Well, that is, after all, why they dropped the bombs in the first place.

They weren't called 'Little Boy' and 'Fat Man' for nothing, you know?

"...the export of non-lethal assistance..."

Now, where have we heard about that before?

"...in violation of Japan’s post-World War II constitution..."

Well, what's a little thing like a constitution or some silly pedantic theory like 'The Rule of Law' between friends? What a good thing the Russkies never got a look into developing the Pacific theatre after the war, eh? Just think what might have happened if they'd got any closer to Japan, have already freed China and Korea, had Little Boy and Fat Man not done their job in a timely enough manner!

"...exploiting its “self-defense” clause..."

Oh look: another one like 'non-lethal assistance'! Birds of a feather flock together, I guess. They're firm and fast friends, these are, though, aren't they: Dr Stranglove's best buddies?!

"...part of Biden’s legacy-building project in that country."

And all Putin's fault: 'That man's just gotta be removed from power!' (or words to that effect).

"...recklessly spike the risk of a larger war..."

Vampires and werewolves may be myths, but rabid dogs are not. People can get rabies too, you know? It's a hideous death.
