Yeah, let's restrict Japanese cars in the US! It's not like thousands of Americans will lose their jobs or anything.

ctually it was a way of J Samurai for displaying their pride and honor. Back in 1970s, one Korean man chopped his fingers and sent them to J embassy. It was also Yakuza way of displaying their pride and commitment. During the War, many J military officers performed Harakiri instead of surrendering to enemy.

That explains why the SK's mentality is still stuck in the past.

You know maybe the Japanese people should stop taking themselves so seriously... and have a little bit of fun. Then they wouldn't have to be so paranoid of K-pop brainwashing people or whatever.

What makes you think they can't have fun without some bad kpop music?

South Korea: Hey Japan, we hate your guts! But please invite us to your kouhaku show!

I don't understand why people are whining over it. Kpop trend is dying in Japan so it's only natural to not call them.

Try to picture a Star Wars movie starting without the 20th Century Fox fanfare, sad.

Not really. Last time we got a Star Wars movie starting with 20th century Fox was the prequel trilogy and we all know how that turned out.

This is the same as the Chinese buying the Xbox 360 in masses in Japan to bring it back to sell it at home. Yes, the 360 is also made in China but that doesn't stop them from buying it overseas.

Posted in: China warns of 'further actions' in Japan island dispute See in context

Foreign Minister Seiji Maehara on Tuesday cited China's official People's Daily as describing — on Jan. 8, 1953 — the Senkaku Islands as part of Japan's territory.

The description indicates China's current territorial claims to the Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea are "groundless," Maehara told the Upper House foreign policy and defense committee.

The People's Daily described the Ryukyu Islands as "dispersed between the northeastern part of our country's Taiwan and the southwestern part of Japan's Kyushu Island" and as including the Senkaku Islands as well as the Sakishima Islands, Maehara said.

"It is clear that the Senkaku Islands are inherent Japanese territory," he said.

Maehara also noted that a world atlas published in China in 1960 specified the Senkaku Islands as part of Okinawa Prefecture.

China and Taiwan began to make territorial claims to the Senkaku Islands around 1970 as oil resources in the area attracted attention.

Tension between Japan and China has grown bitter since a Chinese fishing boat collided with Japan Coast Guard cutters near the islands Sept. 7.

This Chinese business woman had her own study based on only the CHINESE documents then put those documents on her web site which is being subscribed to over 100,000 readers in China. Sadly since Chinese government controls the information in China and pressured on her, as a result, this site has gone around Aug.26 2012.

Very true. Here's the paper back in '53 saying that Senkaku is part of Okinawa.
