Hippie whiners are a real pain in the ass. When we took the Apaches to Germany to be stationed there, there were protests all over the place. They all were planned, organized and staged by a bunch of college ***holes from the U.S. The majority of the Germans didn’t give a ****.

How about the protests against having our Pershing 2 missiles there back in the ‘80s?

The majority of the Germans didn’t give a ****.

The majority of West Germans realized that if not for Harry Truman and the A-Bomb, they would have been a Soviet satellite. Prior to a German election shortly before the deployment of the P-II's, the Soviet President (not the Prime Minister) visited West Germany and made a speech in which he said that the Soviets had one nuclear weapon for every square kilometer of West Germany. Basically, he told the Germans to do what I say or else. The Germans went to poles and elected a pro-US government by a substantial majority.

The Chinese should realize that if they do not check North Korea and stop threatening Japan, they will end up with a nuclearized Japan and South Korea. Japan's economy may not be as big as China's but their per capita economy dwarfs China's, they have a lot more money to spend on a nuclear force.
