But the fact that Japan has not entered into a security pact with South Korea implies that Japan does not perceive the integrity of the Republic is essential for the security of Japan.

I just want to thank these people for doing a better job for the show than the directors of the Top of the Pops.

In otherwords, these tarento are forcing media so foreign and/or obscure on to the Japanese market, an audience that wouldn't bother watching the show if it didn't have anything to do with the Japanese mainstream media, how pretentious! At least the promoters for 'The OC' in Japan bothered to use the leading actress Mischa Barton at the local release event for a series about a wealthy Anglo-Jewish community in California that most Japanese could care less!

But would the plot have to do with Hawaii as much as most Hollywood films shot in New Zealand have to do with that country?

Then again, there's alot of western media filth like Hollywood and Fox TV channels holds tight grips on Japan's mainstream entertainment culture, on the otherhand the west won't give a nickel to Asian media let alone Japanese ones on their best watched screens. The few shows that do make it are relegated to obscure art house cinemas and ethnically targeted local TV channels.

then isn't it the duty of the Japanese to reap what it sows instead of letting the US protect them from the "eternal ire" of Asia? What a poor excuse for preserving US interests in the region that are not necessary shared with Japan. The only reason the US got what it wants up till now is because a collection of right wing Asia-hating nut job occupational collaborators, otherwise known as the LDP was in power.

If the nuke justifications should hold, the Japanese should be able to readily argue that sinking hospital ships would have a severe demoralising effect on the enemy and lead to quicker peace and save alot of Japanese lives on both sides.

So does conedemning Allied war crimes imply I went to a Japanese school?

But why should Japan apologise to a country that does not condemn the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? the atomic bombing and sinking of the Centaur are legal acts in the sense of aerial bombardment and unrestricted submarine warfare but involved the deaths of mostly non-combatants. Japan's apology would only encourage hypocrisy amongst the Australians who have already shown that they are willing to condemn Japan's aggression during WWII while it readily invaded Iraq. It is best fot the Australian people if Japan admits the acts but not apologise.

So by your logic, as long as you commit less war crimes than the enemy, you are absolved from all of them?

Taiwan and South Korea would not accept strategic help from Japan if offered, so why should Japan allow the US to help them?

Japan as an Axis power must apologise for all instance of war crimes. Of course it would be outright rediculous for Allied Powers to apologise for any 'alleged' war crimes against Japan.

Damn right, after the EO9066 ordeal, most Nikkei Americans learned as the Ashkenazi Jews did in that congregating amongst themselves will allow them to become easy targets for pogroms, so many of them dispersed and blended in with other ethnic communities.
