The woman's story doesn't sound very plausible. How often do you see "some dogs" in a park without their owners? I've never seen such a thing: lots of stray cats, but no stray dogs. If there really were any dogs, their owners should be able to verify the woman's claims.

I see the Otaru hot springs (no foreigners allowed) are not listed as an attraction. And the canal is only a few hundred yards long, hardly impressive when we have hundreds of miles of the things back home. They do have some nice old stone/brick buildings there though.

Why should China see this as a reason to enhance their own military? Are they afraid of a Taiwanese attack on China? The unelected Chinese dictatorship are nothing but bullies and murderers.

So, according to Bomber Blair, any country that "could develop weapons of mass destruction" or "could form links to terror groups and attack the West" is a legitimate target for bombing and invasion.

This covers pretty much any country in the world, i.e. Bomber Blair believes that he can attack…

They should stick to running railways. The JR lines around here are often delayed or closed when the weather gets a little windy. It shouldn't happen.

Japanese car makers keep quiet about defects in cars sold in Japan, hence the lack of consumer concern. No doubt the true picture will be revealed during a future "regrettable" scandal.

The option of relocating the base to mainland Japan is one that never seems to be discussed. Why not put it in an LDP-voting constituency?

It's a good idea to stop deposit-taking banks from gambling on stocks and derivatives. The casino banks can be allowed to go bust with no cost to the taxpayer.
