I'm all for the death penalty but damn Japan. Hanging people? Move up to the guillotine, shoot them in the head or, God forbid, leathal injection. Modernize a bit. Taking a life should be done with some mercy and respect.

Don't go down the PC road Japan. Look at what is going on in the west. That road goes nowhere good. I'm a foreigner who lives here. I've heard some nasty comments by people who thought I didn't understand Japanese. Let them be ignorant. Words don't hurt.

Serious question. Why are these islands such a sticking point? They seem so far north as to not be useful for much. Their closeness to Hokkaido might be a problem. Is it just two countries trying to get the upper hand or are they valuable?
