How about cutting the road tax and lowering the petrol price Mr. Fukuda? Sorry I forgot...puppets are just puppets serving their master's wishes ei? The Japanese people were never informed about this billions of dollars given for free in the form of oil to fight terrorism, and yes, never a word of commendation too. I wonder what else does the government is not telling its people..hmmm

Reading this, it seems like America is becoming a financial and political liability to Japan, the same was Israel is a financial and political liability to the United States. Japanese troops in Afghanistan? Who but a fool would even propose such an idea?

Once again, this fuel is being paid for by the Ministry of Defense. The Japan Coast Guard belongs to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation. Two completely different pots of money. You may as well be asking the JSDF to pay for a new stop light or highway overpass.

USNinJapan2 Good morning AlliedForces! Either way, the money collected for the good of the people, and to do the people's business is being squandered.

I hope you're not suggesting that AlliedForces and I are the same person because I assure we are not.
