<<Japan Broaches Idea of Acquiring Nukes>>
... don't worry about it ...
a nuclear armed japan is a threat primarily to the global (i.e. dollarium) monetary system, and only incidentally to n.korea as a deterrent, and suicidally to china as a last resort, because ...
- japan does not have the strategic depth to wage AND survive a nuke war, and so using the weapon against any and all nuke state is out of the question unless first attacked
- japan will not attack n.korea first without also attacking china and s.korea, since a fight with n.korea would otherwise leave other near-and-far-neighbors the winners most definitely, and so it would not happen unless n.korea attacked japan first, in which n.korea loses for sure and japan loses for certain
- however, a nuke-armed japan is one that can say "no" to a lot of folks, and as japan says yes mostly to the usa, changing a yes to a no will apply mostly to the usa
- as a consequence japan nuke, s.korea will most certainly go nuke, not so much guarding against n.korea, but very much so against japan. If so, East Asia will have grown up, armed to the teeth, and ... sovereign to the last state. Interesting situation.
So, chill, don't worry, be happy, for dawn of nuclear democracy will be soon ;0)
