2. Another aspect of the Boy-King's administration....

3. Even the NYT is right in there playing word games if you notice?
>>>Under a mutual security pact, the United States has about 50,000 troops stationed in Japan. The presence includes more than 10,000 marines, several air bases and the home port for the Navy's Seventh Fleet.<<<

They make it sound like the Japanese just one day invited us in to help them with their security or something? Its almost like they want us to forget what the soldiers were there for to begin with when they were stationed there over 50 years ago.

6. Time change
Things change
Japan worried.... US goes mad ..... US troops there or base there like a blinking target

When US say to expand War beyond the present and sending elite troops to embassy
The message is clear
Only thing troop do is to protect embassy
Embassy always in Capital hehe well developed region in city
Boosting up mean they expect trouble
Like maybe embassy get burn down by stark crazy mob of ordinary people gone bonkers.

So the question here is what would make everyday ordinary people go bonkers

There is a LINE in the SAND
It say DO NOT CROSS
Monkey staring at line
Monkey say " I am the DECIDER"

I ont like what I am seeing
I dont like the possible concluesion here
I dont like what may happen
There is nothing I can do
But keep repeating and repeating
And maybe hopefully I end up looking like fool :rofl:
Cause it didnt happen and I am just hot air :rofl:

There is a LINE in the SAND
And the monkey is MAD

7. japan knows to let the white man spend himself bare
This invading troops suck us all dry, every day they are in
japan, the american taxpayer is burdened with waste.

But why oppose... the evil empire army is already there,
and for the priviledge of putting a prison guard tower in
Japan, the warden gives japan special cell block status
when the alternative is to be the phillipines, a cell block
less preferred in the eyes of the master prison race.

8. Will they replace troops drawn down from Iraq?
I heard this story on the BBC World Service in the wee hours this morning - That 10,000 US troops will be moved from Okinawa to Guam.

Here's a CNN report:
http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/04/23/japan.usmilitary.ap/

"TOKYO, Japan (AP) -- Japan and the United States agreed Monday on a plan to partially move U.S. Marines from the southern Japanese island of Okinawa to the U.S. territory of Guam, with Tokyo shouldering US$6.1 billion of the cost, Kyodo News agency reported Monday.

The deal was reached at talks in Washington between Japanese defense chief Fukushiro Nukaga and U.S. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, Kyodo said."

Guam and then to where? To replace the troops that will be sent home from Iraq? Let's remember that a draw down of troops doesn't preclude their being replaced by the ones from Okinawa (by way of Guam).
