    This is ridiculous enough in its own right, because even if you do recognize Taiwan as a country the idea of getting involved in a "defensive war" in another country doesnt work, but...

    Japan does not recognize Taiwan as a country. Neither does any other Asian power, the US, or any member of the EU. So this is supporting a "defensive war" in an area that your country officially recognizes as a Chinese territory. Even if we try to remove "politics" from recognizing a sovereign nation aginst the wishes of a major world power - and that is weird to try - the reason that your country doesn't recognize Taiwan is to maintain good trade relations with China. How do these people imagine a "defensive war" would impact those trade relations that already make it impossible to refer to Taiwan as a country?
