Then dont say All countries should be blame, if you cannot justify....be specific or you will be in trouble.
Yubaru is just wise enough to keep focus on this article.

China vs. Japan is a known issue. But this thread shows clearly that US vs. Japan is not better. PATHETIC!

Hashimoto's diversion is working at full!
US posters rushing in this thread and the ones pursuing the provocation are just of Hashimoto's caliber.
In summary, bad behavior will never justify bad behavior.

This thread becomes really ridiculous and out of topic.
To move forward, the most important is not the "how/why/whom/when" made this happening, but to admit it was wrong. Then historians from various countries can try establish an as objective as possible truth.
Making amalgam with other bad things made by other countries is nothing but an attempt to create a smoke screen to avoid facing reality and to exacerbate nationalism.
This is why I am convinced Hashimoto is a dangerous person. If Japan is a true democracy, he should disappear from the radar at the next elections. If he remains, something serious is going on here.

It has happened in the past and will happen in the future. Could it be in a week or a century.
And what? Any prospective urbanist changes, move of the factories to safest places, de-centralization of the government...?
What the hell are they waiting for? Total destruction of Japan?

This is a storm in a cup of tea from my westerner eyes. However after having lived in Japan 3 years and read quite a lot about Far/South East Asia, I have learnt that symbolism and keeping face is a massive thing here, even though for thousands year old matters.
If I could realize that within 3 years, I have no doubt that many fool politicians - like in this case - know they are playing a borderline nasty provocation game.
One thing I could not figure out yet is the unstopping push to make other nation loosing face while this behavior is socially condemned internally. If somebody can explain, please.

Get Real: you are talking about value, super value cars or trucks. These do not need to be in a motor-show, where high tech and design are promoted.

This guy is an idiot. Fine, there are plenty!
But he is backed up by a lot of citizen voting for him. This is much less fine IMHO!

The US Big Three have very limited presence in any abroad big motor-shows (e.g. Frankfurt or Geneva). The reason is plain and simple: they design and produce cars for the North American market with very particular liking and with no care re gas consumption. Except for a few global or fancy successful models, there is no demand for that worldwide.
TPP would not be of any help.

Wait a minute!
Who has the authority to give this permission? Even though badly impacted by this disaster, I do not believe the fishermen or fisheries have anything to agree or disagree.
The scope is far beyond their own business.

Where the hell can children ride a bicycle??
From all above comments criticizing children and careless parents, I suggest to prohibit the sale of bicycles smaller than 24 inches.

For the true coffee lovers - even for these complex cocktail ones - give a try to the Streamer in Shibuya. You will never put your feet back in an SB 1KM around.
