Japan should go beyond hosting American nukes. They should have their own also.

Japan is long overdue for scrapping their self imposed defense limitations. It's not 1950 anymore and japan is a very different society today.

I recall when Japan raised such a fuss about American nukes on their mainland that we had to take them out and placed aboard ships off the coast.
tip: no nation with nukes has yet to be invaded

Serves both Russ and China right. Russ seems to think it should be permitted to invade other sovereign nations at will. China refuses to condemn their behavior, has offered to render economic assistance, and has taken to bullying other, smaller regional countries. This is what happens when you insist on f***ing around--eventually those bulls***t games get old.

A couple dozen or so would probably be wise. Or build them on their own easily.

Re "ignorance is bliss"...

Unfortunately, "ignorance is NOT bliss" (or only rarely, or temporary hollow "bliss" at best) because ignorance of reality (truth) is intrinsically non-adaptive in an environment of ruling psychopathic predators (i.e., the controlling powers-that-should-not-be). It lowers a person's chances of survival. Ignorance is disempowerment. Truth is empowerment..... check out “The 2 Married Pink Elephants In The Historical Room –The Holocaustal Covid-19 Coronavirus Madness: A Sociological Perspective & Historical Assessment Of The Covid “Phenomenon”” ... https://www.rolf-hefti.com/covid-19-coronavirus.html

"Blissful" believers in "ignorance is bliss" -- blissfully stupid people -- are nearly always self-destructive indifferent immoral ignoramuses and/or members of herd stupidity... speaking of which, with the letters of "omicron" an alleged Covid variant you can spell "moronic"

And further speaking of stupid herd people not getting the glaringly obvious truth/ie not getting the constant onslaught of BIG lies of the official authorities......
