Actually the debate over the relationship between pacifism and defense, and between the ancient Japanese warrior ideal and the modern Japanese pacifist ideal, has been simmering in Japan for a long time.

It is one of the main themes in Japanese popular culture. It is the central idea driving the plot of the anime series Gundam Wing and one of the core ideas in two of the most popular anime series of the 1990's: Escaflowne and Neon Genesis Evangelion (although the later is more about alienation and the human condition generally).

The Nattion of Japan will use this North Korean provocation to openly disclose nuclear arms at some point; the real danger is China whose diplomatic support of N.Korea has enabled the hermit kingdom to flex its ugly head.

Sorry pal, but the dreaming part is over. NK has nukes and you'd better wake up to the fact.

China would do well to restrain their commie pal; we are holding the cards here, not them.

Nuclear Japan.........Chairman Mao, how does that sound? (laughing)

[weegee]

Shhhh. The left would have us believe that we are the in this fight alone and that North Korea is out to get us (U.S.) alone.

Of course Japan has been saying that they will strike out at Korea if the threat of an attack seems imminent.

If Japan decided to develop nukes today, it would only take a few months to field a very effective nuclear deterrent force, complete with ICBMs.
