Totally agree, asking JT readers, at least most of them, if J cops are as incompetent as they make them out to be, is very odd. As others stated you're basically asking the very same people who stereotype all J cops as incompetent if they think J cops are incompetent.…

O.K., maybe it's not too old for some couples but I think for most any age difference where the female (or male) is in young 20's and the partner is in their 30's isn't the most ideal of unions. Just too many different life goals and outlook. Young 20 year…

Not bad looking, decent singer. But the title of the musical sounds a bit racist.

A bit too old to be going for someone in early 20's.

Exactly, this guy has more sense than the other ignoramuses that continually bring in ridiculous arguments as to why Japan should not be on the security council. Japan has done eons more to further the spirit of this council than many of those on the council. Anyone that doesn't think…

NeoJamal, it is interesting but I do believe many will see it that way. On some message boards the very topic of Japanese women being raped by American troops post WW2 was discussed, and some have angrily pointed out the what Japan did was far worse than those specific crimes.…

Ishiba said Japan must do its utmost to avoid ‘‘an act of invasion...in the name of right of collective self-defense’’ during the Friday-Sunday event organized by the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies.

That may be true proxy, but again in the greater scheme of things, the world won't be sympathetic to any Japanese that were victimized during WW2, including any civilians. They will always say, but look, Imperial Japan committed far more horrible atrocities in greater numbers against their asian neighbors, etc.…

So, exactly how can the Japanese government be partly blamed for this fiasco smithinjapan? The article clearly states that it was with the assistance of the FBI, not the J government, that these thugs were able to get a visa for the U.S. Nowhere in the article does it state…
