The US has now accepted Tokyo's proposal to move the air station from a heavily populated area to an existing base, Camp Schwab, in a less-crowded spot.

What is the downside to the USA, aside from the cost of the move?

Schwab is a tiny outpost on he eastern coast with poor roads leading into it. It does have Ora Wan beach, a famous and very beautiful beach, but the village of Henoko just outside the base is a virtual ghost town. The troops will just have to take a longer honcho ride into Kin to get to anywhere for decent liberty.

Semper Fi.
