Wake up and smell the $ Ron, those are megga bucks spent by the US in Japan!

Wake yourself up Richard. Try cracking open a history book and see why the Japanese have only a "self-defense force" and not a military as you define it.

It's OUR fault. Just like its OUR fault they have a constititutional amendment prohibiting their forces from leaving to engage in military actions outside of Japan.

It was a US desire to prevent Japan from re-militarizing that created the current situation. They didn't force us to put a military umbrella over them. We did it willingly.

And we would have done the same thing to Germany, had it not been for the necessity of dealing with the Russians and East Germans.

Looking up facts and being able to analyze and put meaning to them are two different things. You possess the former, but are lacking in the latter, IMO.

Regards,

Ron
