  Several interesting thoughts here.

  One, the group in question here, Violence Against Women in War-Network Japan, with its Japanese members, once again counters the oft repeated stereotype of all Japanese as war mongering, racist, xenophobic sheep that are ignorant of their past,

  Second, this group also calls for the removal…

  I'm warning people, this movie's a turkey. Sorry Georgie and Harry, I loved the first two but this one is without doubt the worst of the four. It's like Georgie and his star wars franchise, he destroyed the mystique and wonder of the first three star wars series with his…

  Hey what does bush care if he strikes iran or not, he ain't got much time left. With the mess he's leaving the next president over iraq, what does he care? He obviously didn't care about the countless lives lost and pain he caused from his debacle in iraq, why…

  Why wouldn't it be news? It would definitely be in the news media where I live if some military aircraft made an emergency landing in a civilian area. Even more so considering it's a U.S. military aircraft.

  Kronjp, you should know by now that when it comes to all matters Japanese, no real statistics or hard evidence is needed. All that is needed as "proof" that any system Japanese does not work in its entirety is a stale list of stereotypes that is as old as Commodore…

  Kind of Everton2, it started with Bush acting like a cowboy and thinking he could win over Iraq all on his own, and he and his administration royally screwing things up. Total impression of America imperialism, as no humongous stock piles of WMD's were found, no links to al qaeda,…

  Westurn no offense my friend but that's a pretty laughable list to "prove" that there is no anti Americanism worldwide.

  Face it, I could also come up with a list to disprove people's notions here that Japan is a horrible place to live and work and earn a living, amongst…

  Right you are, why anyone would equate an emergency landing of a military aircraft with the personnel operating it as being bad and evil is quite a stretch.

  You see RomeoRamen, therein lies the fundamental difference here on JT. Whenever people 'bash' America here, it's strictly due to the POLICIES and the POLITICIANS who run the country. It does NOT extend in general to the American public.

  On the contrary, the naysayers here habitually stereotype, insult, and bash…

  I've been to Tokyo and they are the same as anyone else in the world. Sorry if the bitter people here are upset that every single Japanese don't cater to their every whims or act like some fantasy land where everyone is all smiles and happy go lucky. That stuff…
