Just one question:
How can it happen that only the war losers ever have war criminals?

Saulo, actually I believe the police behaved better in this case than in many past cases.
There is only so much they can do, do to legal restrictions places on police's liberty of action.

Whoever hears the animal-like scream of a Honda F1 engine on full power, down the track, will never forget it. It always sounded different, somehow. It makes one feel ALIVE!!

Deer skin is used for fabricating the gloves the kyudo archers use. As far as I know there is great demand for it in Japan.

I'm happily married with two kids. What scares me the most is the number of (stranger) women telling me blankly that "kawaii, Haaafuu no ko hoshiiii". I can easily see some them getting married with some nice looking gaijin ONLY for his sperm. Once the kids obtained this method is the best to get rid of the (unwanted to begin with) father.
This pattern is very common especially with girls met in places like Roppongi.

So Ryukyu was only vassal to China in hope they will be protected in case of a Japanese invasion.
The Japanese has had a massive influence in Ryukyu's affairs already, and their invasion did not met any resistance from Ryukyu.
Of course China did not bother protecting them in any way, and they became the facto Japanese. The ex-king became a member of the imperial family.

Wakarimasen - you just went to the wrong mountain - just as close as Chiba there are wild places, where you won't meet anyone even in GW. Not recommended to the non-experienced type though.
