Posted in: U.S. military’s new Okinawa strategy: Manga propaganda See in context

I recently spent eight months on Okinawa teaching history at the U.S. bases there. It convinced me that the United States is wasting billions of dollars a year in Japan--among other places.

I watched the election of Hatoyama, and the election of a mayor in Ginowan opposed to U.S. bases in Okinawa. It inspired me to write a novel dealing with the subject. I entitled it "Ghosts of Empire."

It's about two fatal events on Okinawa that threaten to derail negotiations for a new Status of Forces Agreement.

My hope is that through fiction some Americans will wake up to the pointlessness of U.S. foreign policy in Asia, a policy that is as absurd as it is wasteful of American treasure.
