Japan obviously have no resources to generate the electricity it needs. So if not nuclear, then what? Has anyone looked at Japan's import deficit recently? Is Koizumi thinking bunny and butterflies can power Japan?

Come on folks, why the stupid loyalty with the iPhones. Those phones have fallen so much behind the curve it's getting ridiculous. Do Japanese iSheeps even realize that Apple is now forcing DoCoMo to sell 40% of its phones as iPhones? This means better phones will not be promoted as well just so that DoCoMo can hit its iPhone targets and commitments to Apple. Wake up people. apple is an arrogant and powerful company like the Heike was back in the day.

China and Korea will always hate no matter what Japan does. It's a fact. Hate has become a prime motivator to keep its own citizens looking away at their own countries problems. China and Korea continues to bash the WWII Japan that no longer exist. Today's Japan is very different, however as this continues we will beging to see militarization of Japan again.
it is human nature to hate, to have a "us versus them" mentality. We say we hate war, yet in the end we crave it.

Posted in: Miyazaki's new film sounds a warning for Japan See in context
War is human nature. Sometimes even if you try to avoid it, it finds you regardless. If China is preparing itself for war then Japan must also prepare itself. The only way out if for each country to reflect upon the price of war. Miyazaki does exactly this and he should be honored. It is also up to China and Korea to go through the same self evaluation. If China and Korea do not seek reason themselves, then regardless of what Japan does, war will become reality.

riiiiiiight, because Japanese women married into royalty are allowed to speak their own minds in public. Nice try.
However what's absolutely amazing is most of the Japanese population will believe it even though everyone knows it's just tatemae. It's interesting concept of self deception. Like men visting kyabakura thinking those young women really think they all are sugoi.
Really interesting country.
