  1. No amount of mutual trade interest nor world cries for calm ....are going to stop this. These 2 nations absolutely despise one another and are eventually going to fight. Probably sooner than later. If us Americans still have one shred of honor and loyalty to our word.....we will be standing with Japan ....but we will probably put having 3 cars and fat asses above honoring our treaty to defend Japan
    . The ghost of Douglas MacArthur will haunt is for years if we fail the Japan state
