Despite his newness, I tend to agree with him and welcome him to FR.

Japan has never even come to terms with its history. They are a homogenous people who let a demi-god like dictator lead them to a disatrous war and now they are trying to gloss over the ill deeds they did. Better to keep that nuclear genie in the bottle. Besides, they could build nukes in 3-6 months anyway.

Being nuked . . . twice, and occupied for seven years, which to some degree is still ongoing as the Russians refuse to return the Kurile islands isn't enough atonement. Being Japanese is like being white. You have to pay for the sins of your ancestors FOREVER.

As for being homogenous, what's wrong with that? Should Japan open its islands to unrestricted immigration and let Islamofacist immigrants pour in until they're a major threat like in EuroArabia?

Huh?

Japan has steadfastly maintained a small, purely DEFENSIVE military position for the last half-century, and modern Japanese culture is accepting of force only as a means of self-defense... both are a result of Japanese guilt over the horrors of WWII. Even their constitution reflects this.

Better to let that self-preservation genie out of the bottle.
