#1 Talk is cheap and Moscow is a way long way from where the action is. Seems the Japanese are genuinely pissed off at the NORKs and not in a mood to be shined. I hope we back them fully.

#4 These discussions are fundamental in the long term to convincing Japan to build up its armed forces in order to counter the growing power of China as well as the NK threat. Every missile launched is another vote in the Diet.

#5 Ok, Seryosha, yank on Kimmie's chain and make him behave then. Unless you already tried and failed to make your yappy little dog heel...

#6 You know Puty, the last time the Russians pissed off the Japanese without the American's knocking at Tokyo's door [in care of LeMay's B-29s], they kicked your kister. And that was about Korea too. Just a reminder.

#7 Actually, CG, the USSR cleaned Japan's clock at Nomonhan in 1939. It was the most important battle you never heard of, since it convinced Japan not to join in with German in June 1941.

#8 Jackel, it cleaned the KMT [Japanese in composition] Army's clock. The Army was operating independent of the civilian government in Tokyo. In 1905, the Army worked for the government, not the other way around.

#9 I'll correct myself, the KMT was Chinese, but the Japanese Army in Manchuria and Mongolia was operating under the guise of the Manchurian puppet government it had set up to justify their actions in that area.
