How sweet it would be if Japan took out Lil' Kimmie.

Actually, it is the DPRK which specifically mentioned the 'defacto state of war' business today, if the UN and Japan come down on them hard over the nukes.
They spit this around all the time, on KCNA and on Radio/TV Pyongyang and in the Rodong Shimun daily. I have lost track of how many times they have said it. Kind of like the boy yelling wolf.
Usually they aim this piss and vinegar at the US or at times (before Roh Appeasment Administration in Seoul), toward South Korea. Once in awhile, they threatened Japan in this way.
But this time, the threats are being taken very seriously.

Some Koreans are still very angry at the Japanese.

Uhhh...we have several bases in Japan. This is about Mini-Me, not what happened during WW2 or earlier.
Or maybe you think that 9-11 is our fault, too?

Ever since mankind had boats this thing has been going on. First it was the Jomon, and then the Yahoi, then the Koreans, and then back again ~ there's always some invasion to get angry over.

If you can go to this one:

...you will see what the Japanese are up against. The Norkies have trained incessantly in order to create a lot of trouble in Japan if/when push came to shove; unfortunately, their targets also include American servicemen and servicewoman at all of our bases, and American civilians, not just the Japanese people themselves. The DPRK does not have to attack the US directly on our soil proper, in order to attack United States interests, and hence the United States itself, in which case we are then in a full fledged war with North Korea.

This is 2006, you seem to reside in a parallel universe trapped in a time warp.
Japan is an important geo-political and defensive ally against emerging threats to the interests of the USA, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, et al.
Do you read?

Thanks for the link.
To: conservativepoet
Kim Jong il scripted and directed the huge blast at the Aung San Mausoleum in Rangoon, Burma which killed many South Korean government ministers (and was intended for President Chun Do Hwan).
Kim Jong il scripted and directed the huge blast which took a KAL airliner out of the sky over the Andaman Sea--killing over 100 aboard, a bomb placed there by two of his agents, one later captured.
Kim Jong il scripted and directed the blast at Seoul's Kimpo Airport a few months before the Seoul Olympics in 1988, seriously injuring people, in order to scare off the World from Seoul because he was 'jealous' of them being in the spotlight and he could not co-host.
This man is fully capable of engineering a huge blast of some sorts in a populated area in South Korea or Japan, killing civilians, and would think nothing of it.

If North Korea goes aggressive against Japan or South Korea we need to come to their all out defense. If it means moving troops from Iraq into that area, then so be it. We have bigger fish to fry now!

Japan should be given the green light to re-arm as fast as possible. If China can't handle this idiot then adults may have to take charge.

Japan won't ask for any green light to be 'given'. They will simply move ahead per what is in their national interest and right of self preservation. If we were them, we would do the same.
