Prime Minister Koizumi simply refused to “go Spanish” in the face of terror threats

Ooooh. That's cold. I like it... catchy phrase!

Those three Faked it?! They'll be hell to pay if this is in fact true. The media spun this in their circus and tried their best to make the coalition look bad. God Bless the Japanese who still support us and God Bless our own troops abroad! Peace. :)

"No one, least of all Japan’s Asian neighbors, doubts Japan’s capability to become a serious military power, once the will is present. Fortunately, this time around, Japan is firmly anchored to the cause of human freedom and democracy."

Something to ponder.

Japan is waking up from it's 55 year slumber. The world is getting more and more dangerous and the US can't protect everyone. The free world needs Japan to step up and take its place as one of the world's great powers.

Mark my words- Japan will become a nuclear power by the end of this decade.

Good post! I haven't seen or heard this anywhere else, which actually doesn't surprise me.

There were several threads that "outed" one of the hostages as a leftist fascist who hated American and sympathized with the Islamic vermin.

I don't know if the kidnapping was staged between the Japanese fascists and the Islamofascists.

I will say this though: if this is exposed as true, the leftists and Islamofascists will have awoken a Japanese sleeping giant, and filled him with a terrible resolve.

There were early indications that the Japanese hostages were peaceniks. Presumably the government has known that for some time but has deliberated what would be the best way to deal with such a situation. If true, this is good news.

There is one thing I've always said about the Japanese:

They are not cowards!
