“will not tolerate even a bit the aerial espionage by the warmongers of the Japanese aggression forces but mercilessly shoot down any plane intruding into the territorial air of the (North) even 0.001 mm,”

So presumably you were okay when Korean Airlines flight 007 was shot down by the Soviets for being in their airspace. They deserved it, right?
YUP!
By the way, where does it say that any Japanese military aircraft actually did enter NK airspace, rather than "near" it?
Read the article. Nobody said it did???

Now that we know he may have been gay, expect the media to back away from this one.

If Japan is flying in NK airspace, then they deserve to be shot down. Can anyone logically disagree with this? It is not so much a threat but rather a rare statement of reason by NK.

That's "semi-literate" kanada, not "semi-litterate". I care, too.

Well spotted. Apparently, my Jamaican rum does not share our concerns.

Are you a native English speaker???! And secondly what the hell does it matter anyway Everyone who speaks English understands it? >
I sure am, and I get paid to correct this kind of garbage as well as undo the damage caused by semi-litterate "English" teachers. It matters, if you care about the language.

What else would we expect them to do aside from make money? Macdonald's is on the way down globally, but not in good 'ol behind the times Japan. It's still 1980 here. I'm surprised they don't still use the polystyrene clamshell boxes.

If he is indeed guilty, he won't get a sentence that would satisfy many readers on this site. Unfortunately, assaults on children do not carry the moral weight in Japan that most western readers would relate to. If he has something that qualifies here as extenuating circumstances (lost a job, drunk, "sexually frustrated by a lover (blame a woman)", was teased at school, lost his favourite Gundam doll", accidentally deleted his totally legal child-porn collection, etc.); then the judge will certainly take that into consideration.
Pathetic state of legal affairs.

Like the iPhone, hate the fact that SOFTBANK has it wrapped up in an extortionist exclusive deal. I'd have one but for the fact that unlike any other phone in Japan, emails to the iPhone count as data transfer (SO THEY CAN CHARGE YOU FOR IT) I still have my 4 year old VODAFONE on a mail-hodai plan and pay less than ￥4500 a month. My friend's minimum iPhone bill is ￥9500 a month with minimal talk time and only moderate email use. Gimme an R! I! P! O! F! F! Whatch got?

Post-murder/suicude dwellings go for a pittance in Japan as the real estate agents are legally forced to inform any potential buyer/renter about the deaths. Such is the depth of Japanese superstitions. Pathetic, really, but a great chance at a bargain for godless heathens such as myself.

I commute year-round in Sapporo by bike. In the winter I switch the tires to winter MTB spikes and even the slickest sheets of ice can't stop me. The only thing that makes me take the subway with the dirty coughing masses is the rain. I raced bicycles back in Canada and rain on a bicycle just sucks on a level that can't be put into words.
I don't worry about parking where "Das ist verbotten!" because they legally have to put a warning ticket on your bike 24-48 hours before it is confiscated. Nobody else in Sapporo worries about it, so, when in Rome!

Oh, amazing plan. RELEASE the FERAL cats back into the environment where they can continue killing the NATIVE songbirds? The government ought to make it illegal to release these cats, and I'd bet you a thousand yen that it is, indeed, as illegal as dumping a snapping turtle in a park pond.
Cats are a serious threat to fledglings, birds roosting at night and birds on a nest. Research shows that de-clawing cats and bell collars do not prevent them from killing birds and other small animals.

I think they ought to issue us armbands. The law, by and large, does not apply to foreigners in Japan.

The CITES registration card would have the names and addresses of the exporter and importer. I import raptors, so I know what I'm talking about here. "Crying". PLEASE. Enough with anthropomorphisation. Gen would have eaten his owner, if he could.
