JAPANESE ONLY policy takes a body blow in court? NYTIMES

Hello there South Asians: Consider the following
1: Japanese Avoid sitting next to a foreigner, including whites on the subway.
2: Brazilians are stereotyped as criminals daily in the local press.
3: In Hamamatsu city, a Brazilian TV reporter was escorted out of a jewelry shop because of the policy of refusing people of her nationality.
4: The reporter took the shop to court and won to the surprise of many.
5: If you are a tourist in rush, you swallow your pride and go on.
6: Japan wants a seat in security council. (JPR: They have to change the attitude. When they come to US, they behave like pussy cats. The same japanese will be a shogun gungho gunko-bunko dung beetle back home in japan. Still I feel that the Japanese shouldn't have been interned in US. Did the Japanese deserve what they got for Pearl Harbor?)
7: Remember that a Japanese official once told that the global IQ of Americans is diluted by blacks.
8: Japanese 1946 constitution, largely written by Americans, is violated.
9: landlords deny housing to foreigners.
10: "Japanese only" signs are placed outside public establishments like bars, restaurants, hot baths.
11: Dr. Cynthia Worthington was hired as a professor of English on a full-time position with part-time or discriminatory benefits at Kumamoto university.
12: Japan will end fingerprinting all foreigners after complaints.
13: Naturalization of Koreans after several generations of living in Japan and serving the japanese military is extremely difficult.
14:japan is monolithic, monoethnic
15: A speeding ticket may be a major hurdle, if that poor foreigner seeks naturalization.
16: Indians may remember during world war that there were signs outside japanese businesses in japan that said :INDIANS AND DOGS ARE NOT ALLOWED"
17: Why is it that we don't know much about these things and still keep on buying Japanese goods?
