    Sorry the normal should have been in italic not quotes...

    It should have been non-existant. Nothing I said hinted it was normal. It is simply world's apart.

    Lying is lying, especially when it comes to rape.

    Lying for sympathy and lying to frame someone are quite different.

    In fact, she still maintains that she was raped in her native country, but by one man rather than a gang rape. Enhancing a story is still lying, but its still world's apart from trying to drag somebody down.

    The thing is though, in many. many of the cases I know of, the ex-wife IS a headcase

    Sounds like a LOT of headcases. I am not in the market to believing there are so many actual headcases in Japan. If there were, I would not be living here.

    My usual response to such claims is: cultural bias. And its something any gaijin should dispense with when deciding to marry a Japanese and live in this country, if not before, such as when making the decision to ride bareback despite not knowing a thing about the methodology of such practices.

    The job, it is what it is..

    That does not make the conditions fair or right. If it did, then a slave plantation would be all right if the slaves were smiling.

    Killing, except in immediate self-defense, is barbaric.

    Well, I never believed the "broken nose" bit. People say "You broke my nose" when they get punched in the nose. Blame Hollywood.

    But blurry survellience video is not about to convince me there was no gash on his head. I will wait until the officers take the stand, because eyewitness testimoney beats the hell out of blurry survellience video when it comes to describing injuries.

    Are they not functionally the same thing?

    NO! Because if you later find out you convicted the wrong guy, you can release him from prison if you didn't kill him. And its happened.

    It will stop those killers from killing again,

    So does life in prison!

    That's unrelated to the first statement.

    Given that fact, it's good to see that democracy is working and the government is reflecting the wishes of the people on this issue.

    Majority rules should never apply to a human rights issue. If it does, then not only executions but also slavery becomes admissible.

    evidence to show she has already lied about rape in another instance

    It is a world of difference to lie about rape to get a visa (prosecuting no one) and actively going after a specific individual for rape while possessing forensic evidence.

    Further, it is not open season to rape liars.

    made a monumentally stupid monitered call to a jailhouse which apprently removed any doubts prosecuters had about her intial testimony.

    What I find interesting that when the possiblities of such a call are 1) fraud and 2) a affirmation of a desire for revenge, somehow 1 is automatic.

    As ever, I find it incredible that side issues outside of the actual event in question play such a role in undertanding the event while one of only two people in the room gets by with a three word explanation, "It was consensual" and is not required to present a full story.

    Regardless, if there is a likely story for Strauss-Kahn, I would love to hear it. I bet you can't dream one up.

    I've no sympathy for either of them.

    Strange. You have no sympathy if one was raped or the other had false charges against him. I wonder what either one did you?

    The great thing about concessions concerning the missle shield is that it looks like we really did Russia a favor for calling off the tiger....but the tiger is in fact made of paper!

    Often times what the Japanese mother or father has done to the foreign spouse has taken the kids from them and has denied them any and all access to the children in all shapes and forms

    Yeah, but why? Each case is different. Talking about this in general terms is really not all that helpful.

    You see, sometimes when a parent is denied all visitation, I agree. And sometimes, I don't. And having authorities interfere sometimes helps, but sometimes makes it worse. Its ALWAYS a mess in general. Therefore, I usually just side with the mother, that way, I can be sure the child sees his or her mother, at least.

    My advice to the men? Appeal to the mother of your children the best way you know how. Go through her mother if you have to. Hint: Kneel and beg if you have to. Praise her even if a lie. Admit your own faults (should be easy). Make the appeal not for yourself, but for the kids, etc.

    I gotta say, it is annoying to have people come here, make a life here, get married here, have kids here, but refuse to learn or play by the rules here.

    I am not totally on the Japanese side, but I am certainly not totally on the foreign side either. Especially the men. They choose their wife, they choose to impregnate her, then down the road they figure they made a mistake. And most I know will happily drag the kids away from their mom, but groan on and on about how unfair it is to take the kids away from their father!

    This subject is a mess. Always has been. And 9 times out of 10 its the man that screwed everything up from step one, but he does anything and everything but admit it. Cause if he did admit it, we would not be hearing about it!

    The easiest way to ensure you see your kids is DON'T GET DIVORCED! You made your bed. Sleep in it!

    I know a guy who knocked his girlfriend up like a complete moron. Totally his fault. And from there, he commits screw up after screw up. Then he was whining to me about how he was afraid that his wife would abduct the kid and how maybe he should do it first, and how he never should have married her. WHAT! Go back to step one!

    I tell you, I am al lot more inclined to talk about the Japanese men who got custody ovet their foreign wife. Its far easier to imagine a woman having a case.

    imap2223, please don't bore me with your side of your personal story. Your wife is not here to defend herself. I am not taking your word for it.

    Get your facts straight before you calls us "Combative".

    You sure like to say stuff like "Get your facts straight", and "You speak too often without knowledge". Sounds combative to me. Its also annoying as hell Mr. 95 percent.

    I know of many cases.

    Yet it seems few names and as many links.

    Damn it imap. From your own site, crnjapan.net

    Mothers granted child custody in 80% of court decisions

    Yet you said 95 percent! And I agreed. Well, I don't have a problem with 80 percent either. In fact, its even more reasonable than before!

    Do more research before "popping off" and calling us Whiners.

    Don't put words in my mouth. Seriously. There is a difference between someone who is whining and "a whiner". Of course, you may have a legit reason to whine. I don't know. But I will be damned if I am going to take your word for it.

    I got the shaft even when I presented all kinds of evidence about her being an unfit mother.

    Every time a divorce comes up, that is the story from the guy. Every freaking time.

    And I wonder if it ever occured to you combative foreign men that it might have been best to go with the flow, instead of fight the wind? So many of you go in making a battle, and when its all over, you expect a hug from those you battled! It does not work that way with Japanese women.

    Most of the time what I see is that the foreign man has pissed the woman off so much before that divorce comes, and its the root of all. Doubly so if he instigates the divorce. And then they expect to walk out with the kids, and fight tooth and nail for it.

    I don't know your case. But most of the time it seems that foreign man could have gotten to see his kids if he were just calm and reasonable instead of making a protracted battle and yelling "unfit mother" at the same women HE chose to marry and impregnate!

    Humility just comes too damned late for most foreign men I know.

    Do some research for yourself before saying we are whiners.

    I have done reasearch. But you cannot even read a post properly. Never said "whiners". And its a classic example of a combative attitude to tell me I said something I didn't say!

    In the case of foreigners in Japan married to Japanese, in 99% of the cases the Japanese is given FULL custody .

    You say there are lots of links to this "fact." Give me one. Its your contention. Back it up.

    Second, between Japanese themselves, in 95% of the cases, the woman is given custody over the father and all visitation rights are granted by the woman.

    Yup. That is what my previous research confirms. Guess what. It sounds about right to me. I know precious few men capable of raising children. I know many who claim otherwise, most are foreigners, and I don't believe them, no matter how much they whine.

    That said, most I know should certainly have visitation rights. But they so often basically waive those by up and leaving the country. They are real dedicated to their kids, unless it means having to tough it out in Japan!

    I don't call them judges. They are pompous people who just don't care.

    Well I am sure that part is true.

    Not sure why anyone complains.

    All you have to do is read the comments. The Japanese police force are like an Inspector LeStrade, blaming the first person handy, where we would all prefer a Sherlock Holmes, someone capable of getting all the facts before accusing. That is a beginning.

    This guy is such a snake.

    As soon as he has to explain in detail his version of what happened and attempt to fit it to the facts we know, it his credibility that will sink even lower than Diallo's, and he knows it. That is why he fights tooth and nail to avoid have to explain anything.

    Previously he went from diplomatic immunity to "Oh, wait, no. I meant to say consensual sex!" Right. I am very much looking forward to his explanation. I could use a laugh.

    But then, he will probably just settle out of court if it comes to that. Like I said, he does not want to explain himself. That is because he can't.
