This remark would tick off China more than N. Korea. N. Korea is indeed helping China's enemy, Japanese ruling party, in good standing. PM Abe was in political trouble because he was sucked into his wife's financial scandal. It would turn into a absolute disaster if the ruling party succeeds in amending Japan's peace constitution.

Sucked into anything my foot. Abe was personally answering for at least two corruption deals before the election: 1) the Vet school scandal - pushing officials to give favorable treatment to a university program being run by a friend - and 2) ultranationalist kindergarten with wife - allowing a friend to buy land at bargain basement prices.

I once compiled a kind of genealogy of Aso, Abe, Hatoyama, and some of the usual players inJaanese politics: most of them have families that have been around politically since at least the Meiji Revolution. We think we have political families here, but they’ve got nothing on the Japanese.
