if he took the other position he would be instantly reviled by his own countrymen.

Yes...and he would have probably gottern his ass kicked by the Taiwanese too.

Station officials said train services were delayed for about 50 minutes

I feel sorry for the station workers that have to clean something like this. Must have been a terible site. My prayers go out to them as well.

Geeeezzzzzzzz! She couldn't offer the baby a decent quality of life, so she kills the baby? Where's the rationale behind that?

RIP little angel

Anyways, isn't there two Ospreys still awaiting parts in Iwakuni? Niiiiiice!

No one can say that these planes will never have an accident, but the same is true about JAL and ANA

And for Okinawa, JAL and ANA flights keep landing and departure patterns away from populated areas just in case.

Imagine if one of those crashed in Tokyo during a take-off from Haneda!

Yes..imagine that. It would be terrible. But that's Haneda, this is Okinawa.

And even after a fatal crash of an F18 that killed an entire family, except the father, and burned down a house in a residential neighborhood, they still fly the F18.

Is this relevent? F18 is not an Osprey, The U.S. is not Okinawa.

Prince who of where?

gogogo, don't feel bad. The first time I used one, I thought, "The Japanese sit on the floor, sleep on the floor...", so I ened up sitting on the damn thing the until someone told me how to use it properly. Then I realized that my knees dont bend that far...

... by repeatedly refusing to acknowledge Okinawa's responsibilities in being a part of Japan.

So when is it time for Japan to acknowlege its responsibilities for Okinawa being part of Japan? Okinawa is part of Japan....shouldn't the Osprey and some of the bases be spread across Mainland Japan evenly?

Thats has to be a father's worst nightmare. I feel so sorry for him. RIP Yuko.

I wonder if she gave them a smile too

Customer gives girl foot massage (3 min) – 2,000 yen

Why is this more expensive then receiving the foot massage?

Please do not turn this thread into a pro/anti base one. From the people I spoke to at the gates, there are both people that take both stances. The only thing these poeple are protesting is the safety of the Ospreys. One woman that I spoke to said that she understands that the military needs to be here...however, she doesnn't understand why both governments would let these accident prone things fly over schools, and popolated areas. She told me that if one of those Osprey crashes, she wouldn't doesnt care if she died...but she cant bare to imagine her three baby kids dying due to an accident.

You could build a whole city in the area used by Kadena. Hotels, shopping centres, residences, hospitals, schools, restaurants, etc.

All of which would benefit the area and benefit Japan.

Bertie, right on! Thats what I said a while back about the Maki Housing area. ShintoShin is thriving with business.

No. You obviously just don't want to understand why bases in Okinawa are important.

Probie, you might want to understand the Okinawans feelings towards all of this. It sounds that you obviously just don't want to understand why so manu Okinawans are protesting the Ospreys coming. Its not only about the Ospreys, but many other base, military, incidents, rolled into thhe bigger picture.

until Japan educates its people about crimes committed during colonial rule.

Sounds fair.

I must say, that was an awesome match between him and Hakuho on the final day!

Soon there will be knock ff of these being sold. Probably not too nutritious and possible toxic

LOL! Agree!

Here comes the mascot for Flosted Frakes.... Quai Chang the Tiger!

Underestimating threats is something that you should never do.

Right on! The Chinese carrier is no threat, so there is no underestimating here on the majority of the posts.

China this month warned the United States, with President Barack Obama’s “pivot” to Asia, not to get involved in separate territorial disputes in the South China Sea between China and U.S. allies such as the Philippines.

Translation: We dont want to get our ass kicked!

And 2 big typhoons are coming the Oki way!

Two? I only counted one coming our way.

He has slender wrists and fingers but he has a manly build

Now thats an oxymoron....

"Made in China?"

I want a T-shirt with those cartoons!!!

Oh, I'm sorry, did NK try and say something? I heard it, but wasn't really listening....

Thats horrible!

How did he get cought?

share them

Hey Ken! I gotta say, you are one crazy guy. However, it takes guts to do what you did. If more people, not only in Japan, but the rest of the world, took a stand when they needed to, could you imagine how much of a better place we would be living in today? There's a guy in Japan that had a purple shirt somewhere that wants to thank you for what you did that day.

They should better make a law that forbiddens having children if u r poor.Its unfair, but it will bring more good things to happen.

What?! There are alot of leaders, successful business owners, athletes, etc. that have faught to get out of poverty and make an positve impact in the world we live in today.
