#1 Taiwanese. They're harder to control than Koreans. And what grinds. All they study here is physics.

#2 Is this a bug or a feature? I'm thinking "feature."

#4 Do we have to remind Beijing that Tokyo has a fully functional satellite program and nuclear power industry? Do we need to remind them that Japan's smaller population base provided sufficient manpower and capability to keep themselves occupying the prosperous portion of the Chinese mainland [and it took the American's war effort to get them out]? You think one day, the minds in Beijing will understand that the US was just as much their protector as a competitor? Keep playing that inscrutable game and they will.

#5 Just a little reminder to China we can let our chain dog go too. I think Japan should be whispering aloud about going Nuclear.

#6 Bravo to the Taiwanese. It will be hilarious to see the mainlanders talk out of both sides of their mouths saying that Taiwan should be defenseless on one hand, but that it's perfectly fine for the Norks to fire missiles off like fireworks on the other.

Of course, they and the wormy worms of Russia will have no problem being utterly two-faced, being so practiced at it.

Discreetly, the US is laughing about this, because they can now act pious and very modestly deplore what the Taiwanese are doing, in China and Russia's face.

#7 Knowing that Koizumi (sp?) went to Graceland last week, anyone wanna open the pot that he (in full-haired glory) will be announcing "testing" plans soon, too? Ya know, in honor of "the King?"

#8 Do we have to remind Beijing that Tokyo has a fully functional satellite program and nuclear power industry?

The Japanese M-5 series solid-fuel satellite booster seems to have been designed to be easily convertible to a weapon, should the need ever arise.
