Pretty simple. Trump scrapped the nuclear agreement to please Saudi Arabia and Israel. Let's let the Saudis and the Israelis fight their own battles, and fix what needs fixing here at home. Like health care and infrastructure, among other things.

Trump and health care, lol. The GOP is begging him not to bring it up.

People seriously cant believe that video...

If Trump says its true, it must be. Right?

Im really not sure how the video is evidence that it was Iran. Well I guess we only have to deal with this for another year and a half.

My wife is pregnant now, her work gives her leave, not paid leave though

I think you need to contact the government. In the case that her company does not pay, the government shall pay up to 60% of her salary through social insurance.

If you've worked in Japan long enough, you probably realize being offered something doesn't mean you can...

What's "fabricated" about this one? The words came from Trump himself.

Probably just having a hard time realizing Trump said something he/she disagrees with.

Wow, awful. Bet nobody saw that coming.

It certainly would be interesting to see Trump give a speech in front of Americans outside his Midwest barn rallies. Interesting and funny. And considering most of DC dislikes him, he might be better off going south to play golf at mar-a-lago. He'd rather be doing this anyways than celebrating the 4th.

Can the police even use urine tests from foreign tourists in a court of law? Part of me doubts it. I'm no expert but I don't think the law in Japan says anything about THC being in one's system. Now if someone is caught carrying it into the country, then they will be subject to harsh prosecution. As long as tourists don't try to smuggle drugs in with them, they should be fine.

You would think Japan would start banning indoor smoking too, but that along with excessive drinking is clearly labeled as a safe and wholesome activity by the Japanese lawmakers.

The drug itself destroys body organs.

Alcohol ,for instance, will pas through the system within 24 hours.

Cannabis is fat soluble and remains in the body for over 30 days, attaching itself to fatty organs like the brain, liver, and, thus continue to destroy the these organs.

Funniest thing I have read, in my entire life. Could also be the dumbest thing I've ever read.

Did both of these elderrly men die from crashing their cars on the same day? Or just the one?

It's pretty clear you didn't read the article.

Actually, I did. It's pretty clear you don't know what is going on...Carole isn't in any legal trouble, her husband is. He is not a U.S. citizens. Trump doesn't like foreigners, why would he help him?

My question would be, why would anyone even want to live in Tokyo? You can make your own work, live in bigger cheaper homes, enjoy cheaper travel, and never get hassled by a policeman.

I agree, I have lived in Tokyo for 10 years and I'm extremely happy to say that I am getting out next month (almost sounds like I'm getting out of prison lol). Sounds like you live in a nice place!

Perhaps I'm just a suspicious looking individual, I don't know. But I have been stopped more times than I can remember...to be fair, I have seen them stop Japanese citizens as well. Although they shouldn't be allowed to do this to anyone in the first place, its an absolute violation of personal privacy.

Do you think police are ever stopped on their day off? Unlikely, and if they were, they would be off the hook the minute they identified themselves as an equal I'm sure...

In 25 years, never once was I asked by the police for my Alien Card and then Residence Card.

You don't live in Tokyo, do you?

Out walking and watching them at work may be wonder how it could be done with robots and drones. The day is hot and the work exhausting.

We aren't too far away from this becoming reality.

Why would she ask Trump to help a non-American citizen? Has nothing to do with Trump, or America.

As far as job applications etc go, I think people should be able to identify themselves however they like. As far as official identification purposes go, I think people should be required to indicate their sex based on chromosomes built by their DNA, especially passports.

Hope they aren't like the yokohama self driving, or should I say self crashing, trains!...

Self driving farm machines sound amazing though, imagine how much profit local farmers could start raking in with less time spent harvesting and more time spent planning and maintaining. Not to mention an increase in quality, not that Japan has a problem there.

The interesting thing is that Trump has been on his bets behavior this entire trip; he's been shockingly presidential, dignified, and diplomatic.

He's made these protesters look like boors in comparison.

I wouldn't really consider starting fights on twitter because of a self-inflated ego very "presidential, dignified, or diplomatic"...

The authorities were alerted to increase ships and the drug boat was outfitted with two very fast engines not normally used.

"Local residents had reported sightings of a suspicious boat over several years, prompting the police to mount a stakeout on the beach, the sources said."

Yea, but who knows if any of this info can be verified.

I assume the feds caught the Japanese distributors, and gave them a small plea deal for ratting out the Chinese mules. Perhaps. That's how I assume most of these stings go down anyways. Would be quite irritating to find out you got sold out for more time on the same crime...

Why are men involved in what is or isn't necessary for women to wear?

Exactly.

I think if men are going to decide what women should wear, then women should decide what men are to wear.

Or is speed a methamphetamine? Sorry, I'm pretty stupid when it comes to this sort of thing...not a chemist!

It was Amphetamine, not Methamphetamine that was issued during the war.

What, like speed or adderall then?

Regardless, never done meth, and have no interest. Disgusting drug with disgusting repercussions...not sure why its so popular in Japan though. Maybe its cheaper than other drugs?

No that's not true.

Ok sure.

My point was, the Japanese invented it. Whether it was for dieting or keeping soldiers awake is beyond my point made at the original poster who was criticizing the west. Seems you failed to recognize the point I was making as well.

Not surprised, have you seen the comments on Fox news? They don't regulate like JT does so the comments are full of bigotry towards minorities from the alt-right...

Keep these dangerous stimulant drugs out of Japan.

Did you know that the Japanese invented crystal meth to keep soldiers awake during WWII? Not trying to say they should be allowed here, but your criticism of the west is awfully silly.

Absolutely not, I thought this stuff was for high school girls anyways.
