By the Government of Japan, in response to North Korea's threat earlier today to treat 'severe sanctions' as a defacto 'declaration of war'.

I wonder why Americans like Godzilla movies ? it has a cult following, even though, everyone knows it's fake.

You said -- "I think China's military advancement will eventually force a nuclear deterrent (they're aggressively stealing US secrets and have built two Aegis destroyers) and the US will eventually approve of Japan acquiring a nuke if not sooner because of N.Korea."

Well.., there goes nonproliferation right out the window...

#1, Any reaction in your part of world to reality that DPRK test was probably a squib/fissle?

#2, Former head US Nuc Inspection Agency (A seemingly straight shooter) said Japan has 10 tons of Pu from nuc power reactors in storage. In his words, "If Japan did everything right, they could have bomb in 3 months; everything wrong, 6 months." Know it is constitutionally prohibited, but when has any law written to appease some group 60 years ago every stopped anyone?

#3. What is MOS reaction?

#4. What is MSM reaction, especially Fuji and Nippon TV.

#5. What is attitude in Japan toward US and SK re: DPRK bomb?

#6. I get the impression we are not seeing the traditional Oriental "don't get killed in the semi-finals" reaction. What's next? Endgame?

There's so much hot air coming out of specific countries in the past few days, it's easy to believe there's a 'GLOBAL WARMING" convergence going on.

Nonetheless, one specific thing I remember about the Kyoto Treaty (during Clinton Admin) which raised no small squawk: China was demanding the rights to use Japan's sea ports. Once that happened, "Kyoto" was off the table and put on ice.

Unfortunately, that's right :0(

Don't forget Battlestar Galactica.
The only thing I'll actually TRY to watch on TV anymore.

Why don't they jam 675khz?

[Alia]

France and Russia had been working on joint space programs AND weapons. Not too long after onset of WOT, France made the move to sell to the Chinese. Messrs Cheney and Rumsfeld squashed that one. France has been very quiet, lately. Russia just made re-made a proposal to be a major "energy" supplier to Germany (and the EU); it's been rejected by Germany.

Det Lennie Briscoe = one of the best developed and interpreted TV characters ever. Orbach was like watching art being painted.

[SevenofNine]

Yep!

[MindBender26]

Thought 675 Khz was Voice of Vietnam? (DPRVN)

[MindBender26]

You mean 657 Khz with The Pongyang Pussy?

[Colorado Doug]

who do you think will join with them other than North Korea?

The usual suspects, China and Russia working hard in the background, France whining that a military response is not the answer. Oh, and let's not forget Chavez jumping up and down, embarrassing himself and his country.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

I am shocked I tell you,,,,, shocked,,, really?
What a bummer.
Same thing when I found out Santa Clause was not real...
Finding out that Godzilla was just a man in a suit was life changing devastating, SHOCKED I tell ya....lol
