Sorry abe Arlington & yasukuni are very different, if you cant figure it out, no one can help you!
If your having trouble understanding things perhaps you should have a talk with the Emperor on why he WONT go to yasukuni, hint there are some very good reasons, easy for most to comprehend!

I love 24, warts & all!
As for the use of torture I didnt see it as endorsing at all but rather kind of a stab at how the US has sunk in that regard, almost like torture, enhanced interogation has become acceptable.......but hey we are all free to our own ideas no biggie

Honestly my guess is they didnt even notice it, amateur hour indeed as another poster mentioned!
So this is kind of a karma thing for Japan, too many clueless people in power here & with ever increasing disastrous results

My front yard is nicer than this, great to stretch a bit out under the trees in my yard, listen to the frogs sing & watch the dog & cats for a bit whenever I need to get away from my cursed laptop!

Guru,

Since the begining I have said the overflow will end up in the ocean its simply the ONLY place & folks contaminated groundwater has been leaking into the ocean, its a non-stoppable daily occurance & will be for many decades+.
You simply CANNOT stop mother nature, any storage can only hope to delay it getting into the ocean, gravity is unstoppable over time, tepco simply wants to cut out the middle man or rather woman, mother nature because she is slowly but surely pushing this into the ocean. I mean surely you all remember the WATER CYCLE from your early years of geography

JohnOD,
I you really want to do it keep at it & the single best thing you can do is take another job & i mean ANY job that throws in with the natives, unless your goal is to teach that is.
Another long timer here, while doing good if I could go back to day 1 I would have come & left after 2yrs max. While I certainly dont regret what I have done & do its just that watching Japan decline & be poorly run is damned depressing.
But if you can miss the misery of being a salary dude it might work for ya

takaichi you are a poster child for those that are utterlu clueless about their own history!
To all those who say Japan has apologized etc ................. news flash its people like this who send Japan backwards again & again.
I mean if she cant even come to the conclusion that it was a mistake to invade the far east & SE Asia & kill 20-30million etc than clearly she is beyond helping.
And so many wonder why Japan has problems with its neighbours.........well the above is a perfect reason why & there are far far too many like her sadly.

Yamazaki you sound like a real putz! Here is a clue in case you didnt know....................
Most people in Japan eat PLENTY of Japanese food! So who cares if they want to try a little something else now & then for petes sake!

Too bad we will never see much competition or value for money when say buying land/homes, new cars, etc for far too much stuff the price fixing is the norm, food, restaurants are a bit of an exception & only a recent phenomenon.

If Japan would get its history straight & then politicians keep their damned mouths shut then Japan wouldnt have all these problems.
But the truth is Japan STILL hasnt even near come to grips with WWII etc whether your talking about what Japan did in the far east or what happened back in Japan its all a misty fog that has drifted endlessly for many decades.
Japan can never get over all this until it can get a grip/admit what even happened let alone who is at fault for what
