Japanese Words, and many traditional Arts as well as some other things, are actually rooted from Chinese. Dose that mean tough tie with China? I hope Japan to make dicision this time to cut off relationship with China and resume diplomatic tie with Taiwan, it is the only way to show the world you could/ would do what you really want to instead of empty words from mouths of Abe, Aso, A... etc.

I believe it's China's politicial gesture to show to the US Gen Martin Dempsey who're visiting JP and talking about military cooperation. China is talking to the US " what you're doing in JP is not good for the situation...", right now the ball is in the side of the US. OK, let's see how the US hit the ball back~

In any society, eastern or western, people agree those who fight and protect their country/ family are heros and those who intrude and kill/ rape others' country/ family are criminals; and suppose some people fight inside their own country/ family, then they could be called politician.

It's definitely not news outside of Japan! Actually only japanese "opinion is already against China", LOL~ whoelse care about it? The islets belong to Taiwan but Taiwan didn't mention much about it because Taiwan cherish practical relationship with Japan and China. I believe most people agree that friendly relationship is much much more important! One more suggestion for Japan is: why don't you reduce sending your CG ships to the disputed area so as to calm down tensions over there?

The poiint is just as the news says: Chinese government ships have frequently spent time around the disputed island chain since Tokyo nationalised three of the isles last September.

The best way the US politician can tell american why it's economic keeping flat : because those foreign countries undervalued their currencies! Unbelievably many american accepted this reason! So one more thing is that the US should invest more money in education!

Thanks for your understanding and support!
I prefer to regard it as Abe government's friendly gesture and I suggest you not to consider this matter by cold war type rigid thought even it seems match your icon of bronze head.

Pls don't make conclusion groundlessly since you don't know the terms! The truth for this agreement is that both Taiwan and Japan have the understanding of the difficult situation so they didn't touch anything about sovereignty of the isles in this agreement, therefore both sides didn't mention anything within 12 NM of the isles and that's why this agreement can be achieved. Personally I think it's good example for solving difficult international issue, i.e. to solve problem peacefully instead of militarily.

Good accomplishment! Anyway the main purpose for existence of any government is to add benefit and happiness of its people, isn't it?

I think they should make decision ASAP without hesitation to perminently close Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant and remove fuel rods and dismantle/ destroy all related equipment, i.e. to give up this whole plant, before further disaster which no body can control.

The US is a real capitalism country and it always takes use of politicial or judicial measures to offend foreign competitive companies and protect American companies, this is only one of those tons of cases.

When all of your neighbors owned powerful guns, large or jumbo size, can't you purchase a small knife to protect yourselves? No mention to that you ask everyone to peacefully discuss the disputed issue but no body want to listen!

The way Abe has been trying very hard, but failed, to find real support for his position only shows his shortage of confidence. Even the US is the only one to support Japan but the US rejected to admit that the sovereignty of Diaoyu has anything to do with JP! So Abe will only lose again and again! moreover, even the US doesn't have much support all over the world! All people know how the way the whole muslim, Europe except England and other 3rd world countries think about the US.

What the US need to do is to invest more money to rebuild 50-year-old infrastructure and education as ewll as taking care of low income american instead of making more people-killing machine.

Sorry, but some of your understanding is wrong! Diaoyu/ Senkaku, Spratley Islands and Paracell islands all belong to Taiwan(ROC) according to "Taipei treaty" signed by Taiwan and Japan, witnessed by the US in 1952.
Article 4 of the 1952 Treaty of Peace between the ROC and JP which stated, Japan has renounced all right, title and claim to Taiwan (Formosa) and Penghu (the Pescadores) as well as the Spratly Islands and the Paracel Islands… all treaties, conventions and agreements concluded before December 9, 1941, between China and Japan have become null and void as a consequence of the war.

The Diaoyu/Senkaku belongs to Taiwan(ROC) due to "Taipei treaty" signed by Taiwan and Japan. Any ignorant journalist in People's daily of China or even any PRC commie can't present Taiwan(ROC) to say anything! I'm writing this not trying to persuade you but you should know you can NEVER persuade me!
Actually for the time being there're not any fishing ship, either from JP or TW or CN, can work around the isles. So you could know that dispute only caused nobody actually own it. Even JP coast guard request JP fishing boats don't sail into 24 km within the isles since February. So I still think the only way is to sit down and peacefully solve the problem.

LOL~ I believe you know my point! I don't know any other "proud country" need another country to watch his regional security, even though his local people(Okinawan... etc.) sacrifice a lot! It's nothing to do with china or japan or any countries, I just mean a country need to put up with something so as to stand up in the world!

Not long ago Abe talked about "proud Japan", that means Japan'll take independent diplomatic strategy and don't need foreign troops to stay in Japan...etc. but just now JP begs the help from US force for some plan to balance China. which one is real JP policy? You've to make decision to choose your way: one is difficult but proud and independent way while the other one is safe and comfortable but restrained. you simply can't take both! Do you like the song: "do you hear the people sing; singing the song of angry men; it is the music of people who will not be slaves again..." It says you need to sacrifice to become free! that's what JP should think and make decision!
