        #MotokoRich #IsokoMochizuki The Communist Party has a position that "the SDF is abolished because it is unconstitutional." They claim to be unarmed. While China is expanding its arms, it is unarmed to put Japan at risk. What happens to that?

        This reporter asks a lot of dumb questions. You don't even know how to tweet in Japanese and have written a lot of tone deaf articles. I root for female reporters if they are capable but not Isoko Mochizuki or you.

        She asks questions about the hearings picked up on the net as if it were a fact. Master of fake news When she is pointed out that she does not careless questions, she begins to appeal to people in the area about free speech. She is a mass of self-explanatory desire

        @nytimes The odd thing is why NYT highly appreciate such a Propagandist like her as a reporter🤷🏻‍♀️ 90%Japanese don’t regard her as a journalist. She always ask questions, using other journalist’s articles ,not based on her investigation She is the vanguard of China 🇨🇳

        Mochizuki is 43 years old and hasn’t achieved anything as a journalist, but the left still exalt her for just howling at high officials. She has little substance in her questions. It indicates how low the standard of the journalism has become for the left.
