Posted in: Japan OKs bigger budget to host U.S. forces, step up alliance See in context
Japan should also invest in high power laser-technology, both air- and space based, capable of destroying nuclear attack weapons on the ground before launching…anywhere. That is already possible and realistic and all the atomic bombs will become obsolete.

Posted in: Japan OKs bigger budget to host U.S. forces, step up alliance See in context
Since the collapse of USSR and the decline of US global power after loosing the wars in Iraq , Syria and influence in India-China a totally new Global horizon is emerging.
Japan is very lucky , not to have any participation in the past 70 years of nuclear military race.
The new high technology conventional, highly precise ,anti-missile and anti-air-naval weaponry and currently development of new military weapons, has made nuclear ICBM’s ineffective and is only a terror-threat of civilian populations everywhere.
Japan should just double their conventional military defence budget over the next five yers; that will be enough to stop any military aggression from any country.
