Well, here for example:
Exist in people like you (and apparently those Japanese you've talked with)? I'm sure of it. There will always be people who believe anything the government is feeding them. Sure, let them control your spending habits! Allow the silly propaganda and eat it all up for all I care. It's your prerogative. I, on the other hand, do not believe in the so-called "fear" you talk and neither do the Japanese I've talked with over the last 21 years.

Seems I did. They ALL represent my POV - Not all Japanese fear North Korea.

On October 9, 2006, the North Korean government issued an announcement that it had successfully conducted a nuclear test for the first time. Both the United States Geological Survey and Japanese seismological authorities detected an earthquake with a preliminary estimated magnitude of 4.3 in North Korea, corroborating some aspects of the North Korean claims.
2006 test: An official in France's Atomic Energy Commission reported that they estimated the blast was "about or less than a kiloton" and expressed uncertainty about whether or not the blast was actually nuclear. There have been various large planned and unplanned non-nuclear explosions comparable in yield to small nuclear detonations, such as the U.S. "Minor Scale" explosion from 1985, which used conventional explosives to simulate a 4 kiloton detonation. According to the Washington Times anonymous U.S. intelligence sources speculated there "was a seismic event that registered about 4 on the Richter scale, but it still isn't clear if it was a nuclear test. You can get that kind of seismic reading from high explosives." The Wall Street Journal explains that this blast was equivalent to the explosive force of about US$100,000 worth of ammonium nitrate.
2009 test: In June 2009, the Preparatory Commission for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) announced that no radionuclides had been detected that could be associated with the 25 May event. At the time of the test, the CTBTO global network included 40 radionuclide sampling stations. In addition, the United States reported that no radionuclides were detected by aircraft over the Sea of Japan (East Sea of Korea), and South Korea also reported that no radionuclides were detected. By contrast, radionuclides were detected in at least two locations after the 2006 event. Lack of detection does not mean that the event was non-nuclear: it is reasonable for a nuclear test with this yield, buried deep enough in the appropriate rock, to not yield remotely detectable radionuclides, but it makes it more difficult to prove whether the test was nuclear.

You call them facts.
I call them questionable opinions because the agencies in question often make errors and recant their previous "facts".

I have stated:
It means what it says.
It means that it is likely that the Japanese (generalizing it to mean ALL Japanese) feared North Korea.
Nowadays, however, the Japanese (generalizing it to mean ALL Japanese) don't fear North Korea.
You further proved it for me with your links to the surveys.

I remember clearly TELLING you to put up facts (not rumors). Did you see the exclamation?
I don't remember TELLING (or asking) you to put up facts from the IAEA or any other agency.
You decided to get your "facts" from those agencies. I just told you to put up facts.
I did so because I wanted to know where you get your "facts" from. After that I couldn't care less.
This is because I don't believe any of the agencies you have mentioned so far.

No, this is me saying that the agencies that claim to have confirmed stuff are continuously being called on and proven wrong. They include the CIA, the UN and the IAEA.
However, if you're really interested I suggest you go to Wiki (not my favorite either) and read for yourself that the tests were not fully corroborated as you claim. Still, if you can find other links that prove Wiki wrong that only proves that above-mentioned agencies claim something (as per your links), which IMO doesn't make it so.

No, ben. You're wrong. Sorry.
1) I didn't ask you anything. I told you to post [quote] facts, not rumors [end quote]. Show me the quote, Ben. Oh, I just did....
2) Wrong! I didn't (ask or) tell you to posts facts corroborated by the CIA and the IAEA. Show me the quote, ben. Oh, you can't 'cause it ain't there...
And even if I did... Man, have you even read any of the lies and retractions the CIA has been putting out there re: North Korea since the 50s? They have been trying to convince several US presidents to attack NK. Luckily those presidents were smarter and able to keep things in perspective. Can you imagine pre-emptive strikes? Nuclear strikes!
The IAEA, you say... Is that the same IAEA that admitted errors in a report on Iran's nuclear program not so long ago?
The United Nations? Well... The list of FAILS of that institution... Just read the above article for starters if you're interested.
I don't need to prove anything, ben. Nothing like that, simply because I never claimed it. All I said in that regard was [quote] Just because those agencies say that those earthquakes were triggered by nuclear tests, don't make it so [end quote]
There is no theory, just me saying I don't trust what any of those agencies are trying to feed me. With good reason, I should add, as I have read (and posted) plenty of their so-called "facts" that were later proven to be false.
I have also stated numerous times now that YOU are free to believe whatever you want. Believe the UN, CIA, and IAEA. I mean that. But PLEASE stop trying to forcefeed me your USA war propaganda BS. Enough!
Thank you.

ubikwit:
There have.
Back in May this year the ministry's proposal called for, among other things,
strengthening support for younger people who seek jobs and are rearing children to help equalize social welfare benefits different generations get;
using tax money to subsidize low-income people who cannot afford pension and health insurance premiums;
setting a cap on the total out-of-pocket payments for medical- and nursing-care services;
placing a separate cap on financial burdens accrued for undergoing advanced medical treatments; and
enrolling more irregular workers in the pension and health insurance systems.
.
.
In the end (last week)....
The ruling DPJ was ready to compromise on its goals to :
consolidate kindergartens and nurseries into new day-care facilities,
to create a basic pension system that guarantees monthly minimum benefits of ¥70,000 and
to abolish a separate health insurance system for people aged 75 and older,
all of course if the LDP and New Komeito back its push to double the consumption tax by 2015.

The United states of America, while possessing a huge nuclear arsenal themselves (strategic warheads to be reduced to 1,550 by 2016 but still a ridiculously high number), in addition to also being the only country in the world to have ever used such WMDs, is okay with the manufacture, possession and sales of such weapons.
What are they bitching about?

Ben:
Simple. To see who your so-called "reliable" sources are. Once you stated them, I had nothing further to say besides maybe "go figure!" as you must understand by now.
Every year the CIA Director tells Congress that ‘the chances are better than 50:50’ that NK has one or two bombs (not devices), and newspapers have routinely reported this assumption as fact.
Yet, nuclear experts at the Livermore and Hanford laboratories reduced their estimate of how much fuel North Korea possessed to less than the amount needed for a single bomb. NK, they concluded, could only have seven or eight kilograms of fuel, whereas ‘it takes ten kilograms of weapons-grade plutonium to fabricate a first bomb,’ and eight or nine kilograms for subsequent ones.
According to David Albright, one of the best and most reliable independent experts, ‘the most credible worst-case estimate’ is that NK may have between 6.3 and 8.5 kg of reprocessed plutonium.
In other words, the CIA’s "educated" guess, endlessly repeated in the media, appears to have been mistaken.
What else is new, eh?!

About those "confirmed" WMDs...
The CIA has maintained that NK probably has one or two atomic bombs but no more than that, because they could not have reprocessed more than 11 or 12 kilograms of plutonium – the maximum amount they could have obtained from their reactor in 1989. This conclusion was first included in a National Intelligence Estimate in November 1993, after all the government experts on North Korea had been gathered together and asked to put their hands up if they thought the North had atomic bombs. Just over half raised their hands. Those in the slim majority assumed that the North Koreans had reprocessed every last gram of the fuel removed in 1989, and had fashioned an implosion device that would detonate this plutonium – no easy task. Still, the CIA referred only to nuclear ‘devices’, not bombs.
