The Japanese are definitely getting more aggressive. About time. If you want to see the Chinese Politburo come down with a collective case of diahrrea, let Japan announce it's building nukes. 1930s redux.
I wouldn't wish the Japanese brand of aggression on my worst enemy.

Nor I. Remember when Germany sent their first troops out of the country, I think when they joined the forces in the Balkans? That one gave some folks pause, too.
I don't think we'd be seeing the same sort of nationalist fervor that led to the 1930s.
This isn't our grandfathers' Axis Powers... ;>)

No it isn't. The "Japanese brand of aggression" ceased to exist over sixty (60) years ago.
The Japanese are rightfully repelling incursions into THEIR territory by an IMPERIAL and expansionist China. In the map below, look where Taiwan is located and note the strategic importance of Senkaku Island.

Not only is Japan not being aggressive here, but the sort of aggression they practiced then is literally impossible no because of their declining population. We have nothing to fear and much to gain from a stronger Japan.

When was there a Republican in your bedroom?
