Hmm [/Japan]
Looks like that son of a bitch is at it again.
Korean people "chose" to be annexed to Japan. (link 1, link 2, link 3)
The Chinese are ignorant, so they are overjoyed. That spacecraft was an outdated one. If Japan wanted to do it, we could do it in one year. (link)
How is this moron governor of Tokyo? *cough* What's the point of a democracy if the people can't stand up to keep their government in check? *cough*
General elections are approaching here too. Financial Times editorial has an interesting take on it: oust the LDP, empower the opposition--democratize Japan.
