Condi Says US Will Defend Japan Against N. Korea-Japan says it wants nukes
Edited on Wed Oct-18-06 06:15 AM by wordpix
So now Chimp's "policy" in Asia is fueling a nuke arms race.

With what troops will Chimp protect Japan? :shrug:

Now that Chimp-in-Chief has bankrupted us and killed off many of our troops needlessly in Iraq, N. Korea and China must be laughing their asses off at Chimp's weak threats.

2. Considering
That NK has a very, very, very, very limited ability to project military power beyond the peninsula, The defense of Japan falls to one organization - The United States Navy (which has pretty much been out of a job in this botched war on terror). Now for South Korea the mix requires much more in the way of combined arms.

3. How long will it take Japan to develop them in secret?
They understand nuclear technology very well, probably just a year or two.
