  The sushi craze isn't over in the US or the rest of the world. As far as fish prices going up that's right along with every other food ingredient. But it does seem strange that such a serious effort didn't arise earlier while every other ethnic non-Japanese asian has opened…

  "Precisely. The fact that the japanese are clinging to Article 9 means by default that they are chained to it, like it or not."

  If you are suggesting that the Japanese are deiberately and willfully adhereing to Article 9 in order to avoid taking further responsibility in terms of security,…

  "If japan was not chained to their US imposed constitution"

  Fallacy. We have been trying to undo Article 9 ever since the Korean War. It's at US insistence at the time that there's is a SDF today. The Japanese aren't chained to their constitution, they're clinging to it.

  China's lack of transparency and Russia's revived aggresive posture will keep the military weapons industry going for the next decade at least.

  I don't disagree that we, amd all free democratic nations should help Georgia. But the fact is that the Russians broke it and they are the ones who need to pay for it.

  "Well, given that the PM in Japan does nothing, and Koike has basically done nothing either in the Environment or Defense portfolios, I'd say she's eminently qualified for the job."

  That's a good reason to suppport the one that's most pleasant to look at.

  "Hey, I thought "thugs" and "monsters" was kind of going easy? What are your adjectives of choice? Protectors of local culture? Clue me in..."

  How about "porpoise fishermen"? Wouldn't that be undeniably accurate and objective?

  "OssanULTRA; Japanese society is not ready for a woman PM."

  Disagree. And whether Japanese Society is ready for one will be determined by the Japanese people, or rather those already in power. We weren't ready for a female conservative Republican vp nominee either. Or for that matter even an African-American…

  Urging a country to keep it's agreements isn't lecturing. Lecturing is when a you tell someone to do something that they had never agreed to in the first place.

  "Japan - you forget one thing: Koike is a woman, and Japanese men (especially those in the government) will never allow a woman to be PM!"
