Clayton K. Char comments

Tolerance by the Left is a figment of their imagination.

World leadership has been woefully lacking for 3 1/2 years with the Biden/Harris administration.

How do you justify the conflicts going on in the world?

Russia invades the Ukraine, Hamas attacks Israel on its own soil, the Houthis attack commercial shipping in the Red Sea, China harasses the Philippines in the South China Sea, China harasses Taiwan over the Taiwan Strait, and North Korea launches rockets over the Sea of Japan.

Where's the leadership that was promised by the Biden/Harris administration?

Why have millions of migrants crossed illegally into our country?

Iran needs to retaliate. The assassination of the Hamas leader in their secured compound in city of Teheran is a humiliation they cannot ignore. Their people demand fitting revenge.

Unfortunately, the options are limited when it comes to retaliating. They must deliver a hard enough blow to Israel to declare victory, but at the same time avoid a counter attack by Israel.

Israel is a nation where if you hit me once, I will hit you twice. They believe in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth plus an adder.

An act of cowardice in the face of fear?

"due to the risk of "unexpected situations" such as protests, amid international condemnation of the country's war conduct."

ROI, Return on Investment must be the key driver for any business to increase its investment in upgrading/modernizing is manufacturing plant.

If the outlook is not positive, additional investment will not take place.

EV's are not for everyone .

A data center is the last thing you want in your neighborhood.

The demands on the electrical grid and the volume of water for cooling exceeds other types of businesses.

Avoid one like the plague.

When all other clean options are taken into consideration, nuclear energy is a clear cut winner i.e. clean, robust, and reliable.

Three mile island, Chernoble, and Fukushima did happen but the world did not come to an end. Also, nuclear techonology has advanced and spent fuel rods can be reprocessed. No Yucca mountain required.

What's missing is the will.

Evacuate: remove (someone) from a place of danger to a safer place

What is it about the word evacuate that they do not understand?

He's an actor. He should stick to acting.

"Suze van Meegan, the Norwegian Refugee Council's Emergency Response Leader in Gaza, said many civilians were still stuck."

The civilians are not stuck, they are being held against their will by Hamas to use as human shields.

Quick to act on the threat of a potential invasion of cheap Chinese-made EV's, but slow to respond to illegal aliens crossing our southern borders at will. Another major milestone for President Biden's horrible legacy.

In Hawaii, local residents often get a kamaaina discount on their purchases. It has been going on for decades and not only in restaurants.

Does the Japanese Constitution prohibit the police from unlawful search and seizures unless there is probable cause?

Now that they have the U.S. protecting their backs, they can act tough?

A peace treaty between Russia and Japan? Is this a belated April Fool's Day joke on the part of Putin?

Can Putin really be trusted to honor a peace treaty?

Is the service period for a reactor based on science or is it arbitrary? Exactly which parts degrade and deteriorate over time and can't be replaced?

The world is getting to dangerous to remain a pacifist nation especially when you are in the middle of the disputed area, the South China Sea.

"he has called Trump a “traitor to the West” and the “most destructive president in history.”"

He who throws stones first should expect stones in return.

""There is no problem in the design and structure of Ospreys" and the accident was caused by a defect in specific parts of the aircraft, the ministry said."

And the specific parts shall remain unamed?

It's called an about face. Xi's get tough on foreign businesses and investments have resulted in their flight. This has led to vacant factories and mass unemployment.

Will foreign businesses and investments return, probably not? They have already fled to friendly neighboring countries who have welcomed them with open arms.

And killing is the answer? Race of the assailants is not a factor. It's the dark side of all human behavior.

Congratulations and best wishes to the both of you.

EV's are not the panacea to solving the problem of climate change. Only now automotive experts are beginning to see the downside of EV's as the population of EV's increases.

In additions to vehicles fires, insufficient or defective charging stations, premature tire wear, and higher insurance premiums, a new problem of weak road barriers and multi-deck parking garages unable to handle the added weight of EV's.

Will our existing freeways and highways need to be upgraded in the interest of public safety and at what costs?

Sorry, you are not living in the U.S. You are living in Japan and the Japanese can do as they please unless their Diet passes a law against it.

Japan has a homogenous society and wishes to remain that way. However, change is coming due to depopulation and aging. A major crisis is just around the corner and their only viable solution involves immigration.

Young Japanese are not getting married and having children. It's become a ticking time bomb for Japanese society.

What happened to the movement to bring back and/or keep strategic materials manufacturing in the U.S.?

Can it still be owned buy foreign interests or it has to be owned U.S. interests?

That is the question?

Fake science strikes again!

You got into the playoffs due to your aggressive style of playing during the regular season.

Do you change your style because it is a playoff game?

China's economic bubble has burst. The economic powerhouse was built on a foundation of sand.

Does China still want to reunify with Taiwan? Do they need Taiwan to bail them out?

Such big talk coming from Kim. Is he yearning for more news coverage from the international press or trying to divert his peoples' attention from their perpetual starvation and suffering? Maybe both?

"In a departure from Trump's first administration which ran from 2017 to 2021 and had "decent" people who saw a need to strengthen the Japan-U.S. alliance and U.S. defense posture in the Indo-Pacific region, Kotani believes "we would see weakening U.S. commitment to defending" Japan in a second term."

The "decent" people were leftovers from the Obama administration who were disloyal to Trump and had their own agenda.

WWII ended in 1945 and the occupation of Japan ended in April 28, 1952. The year is now 2023, why do we still have U.S. military stationed in Japan? Isn't it time that our allies defend their own countries.
