Japan will change...She has to. If a person has even a tiny finger-tip of Japanese blood, embrace them as one of your own. The world is getting really crazy out here. The more allies you have, the more people who want to love you, the stronger and better for you.

Better than the movies that are filled with Chinese actors portraying Japanese characters. The look is so totally wrong. RE. Geisha, Kill Bill. And then, because of Kill Bill some clerk in the CD store corrects me, "Oh, you mean yakoooza." Sigh...

This is interesting and also confusing...Canada usually refuses to extradite even the most terrible alleged criminal to countries that have the death penalty (much to the anger of the general populace).

Once the Red Cross gets the money, it becomes theirs. And the Red Cross disperses the money as they see fit, at their own discretion. So that means a big chunk of Japan money could have gone to other countries that the Red Cross adjudged to be in need.
