You've got me turning yeah I'm turning oh I'm turning ah I'm turning yeah
I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so
Turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so

Everyone avoids me like a psycho lone ranger

Turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so
I'm turning Japanese I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so

I've long thought that we should allow Japan to re arm, just to provide a counterbalance to China.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

This is one of the most helpful things I have read in a long time. We need help in defending against the growing military of China. Japan could be that help. They should of course develop their defenses and should do it rapidly. Of course, I know there are WWII memories and fears. And, of course, the Chinese would try to "woo" the Japanese to form an Asian TIGER that the world could not oppose. But, hopefully, the Japanese see the danger that Communist China poses. As long as China is ruled by Communist butcher thugs, Japan is not safe! And America is not safe! And the world is not safe! Come on, Japan - the world needs your defenses against the Chinese - NOW - not later.

The communists need a reality check big time.

This should help.

Bush saying Republic of Taiwan should help.

But the communists will not learn and they keep statements such as these from the general populace by press control.

Their newspapers are full of overt lies about groups like Falun Gong.

It is a big mess there.

"I told that person that if we get serious, we will never be beaten in terms of military power," he said.

This is absolutely true. One of the major reasons Japan took the lead over America in designing appliances and electronic goods is beacause while their most brilliant engineers were making Walkmans, ours were building Stealth bombers.

If the Sony guys get sucked into Japanese defense technology programs, the Chinese will find themselves in a walking nightmare. They will never out-savvy the Japanese when it comes to high-tech. Japan beat the Russians just over a century ago with only a few decades to invent an industrial society from the ground up.

I'm fairly sure Japan already has nuclear weapons, and am certain they could have them online in less than 12 months if they don't.
