Dear People of the World (formerly Dear Americans)

50 days after the departure from Yokosuka base since the deployment in September, the dangerous and troublesome ship came back.

CVN 73, USS George Washinton, Nuclear Aircraft Carrier which navigate by nuclear reactors. They are deployed in Yokosuka which is near Japan's capital Tokyo.

They know they are not welcome by the citizens in Yokosuka.

Then they came up with very stupid idea, that is inventing "Navy Burger" and release it as the city's new highlighted good like "Navy Curry" whose recipe is modeled after Japanese imperial navy's curry meal and it has been popular for many years.

The mayor and chief commander of Yokosuka base jointly presented the burger to be released next year.

American beef would be contained? No thanks, I don't want to get mad cow disease. Even it contains safe Aussie beef like McDonald in Japan. I still want to refuse it. Not only because I am not hamberger eater but I keep resisting CVN 73, George Washington because of the fear of radioactive release by an accident or earthquake.  

They have done similar thing already such as free stupid comic books, which the story is untrue and very propagated.

Do they think people are easily distracted by such foolish event?

The only way they can be welcome is cancel the deployment and leave Japan as soon as possible.

Well, what we can do is demand our government to stop funding foreign troops stationed only for cheaper expense.

Dear Jim,

Interesting fact: China is largest foreign owner of U.S. treasury bonds. Japan is No.2 owner.

China buys more U.S. goods such as Boeing and intel chips than Japan does. Everyone knows that the U.S. wouldn't help Japan even if China attacks Japan. U.S. commander, Mr. Keating said they would like to help Chinese army build aircraft carriers. Great! We would be defended by the army that is helping our enemy.

I love this Commerical.

Great and creative!

Think about it. Things went too far. It usually takes so long for ordinary people to accept new idea.

They rushed and that resulted in the failure.

Why do they demand so much? They've had enough already. After all, marriage itself is discriminatory institution.

and this one, too. That partly represents my opinion.

Suprised to know our prime minister, Taro Aso is Catholic. I just recently learned that. He was elected on 25 of September this year.

But none of Japanese media reported his religious faith. He's been known as potential candidate for PM long time before. It has never become the issue.

I learned that by reading articles in BBC, CNN, FOX and Roman Catholic website.

Maybe you wonder why. Only a few percent of the population is Chrisitian in Japan. They are minority and experienced oppression during 16 to 19th century. But the thing is we really don't care. Are we atheist? No, actually Japan is known to be Budhist society and has many many Budhist temples. But native religion of Japan is Shinto. Shinto is polytheist. We welcome any kind of religion and personal religious faith doesn't matter to politics or so on. We rarely talk about religion in our daily life.

In recent politics, PM's visiting Shrines that memorize A-class war criminals has been controversial. He visited there, too although he is a follower of monotheist religion. Shiton has been considered kind of festivity or national symbolic spirit, not as religion you should be dedicated to.  

In Western society, religious faith seemed to be a very big deal in politics and social issues such as abortion, homosexuality.

To tell you the truth I am Christian, too. I do not support him nor his party. Strangely I just feel intimate to him although I think he is most unqualified PM in history. Iraq war has been regarded as "Wholly war" by crusaders. Scary!

As far as I've checked his action and speech, I cannot find him practicing Christian. He caused tensions with neighboring nations by making provocative statements. He insulted the victims of the disastors, altzheimer patients and many others. He called opposition party as Nazis. His prime mister status wouldn't last so long because he is very, very unpopular so is his party.  Soon enough, the parliament would be dissolved and new election will be coming up.

The nation would judge him and his administration and choose who to rule Japan. He will learn true meaning of the wholly bible words "Judge not others lest ye be judged."

Then he will shout "Jesus Christ!"

Mr. Colin Powell endorsed Mr. Barak Obama for the president of the United States of America.

Well, after all, he was good man although he joined President Bush's team.

He grew up from poverty and is Black, that is common with Obama. That means he and Obama knows the pain and reality of the world.

White conservatives like Bush don't know the reality and they are basically fundamentalists, very idiot and break out unnecessary wars for the fake causes.

Powell is not only good man but also very shrewed realist. He is a military man but do things just necessary for the interest of his country.

There should have been things he, himself disagreed but got along with because those things were necessary to implement to make things better. He agreed to bomb Afghan but tried to convince Bush not invading Iraq.

I believe Obama's policy should be similar to Powell's.

Powell sometimes made very warm-hearted comments to the weak people because he did experience that position.

In 2004, 3 Japanese citizens were kidnapped in Iraq and held captive for 8 days. After they were released, they've been criticized for what they have done, which was trying to rescue abondoned children and find out truth. Japanese society did not get along with their objective and continued bashing them as to how selfish their act was because they ignored the government's warning of not going to Iraq. Read this post if you want to know more about this incident.

Powell said "Japanese citizens should be proud of them who were trying to do good things." That helped stop bashing them.

This time Powell endorsed Obama, at the same time he made very interesting comment to the U.S. citizens.

"Republicans say Obama is Muslim. It is not true, he is Christian but even if he is Muslim, what is wrong with it? Can't Muslim child dream of being a President of the U.S.? In Arlington cemetry, there is a grave for Muslim soldier who fought in Iraq."

Well, we want to have a leader who knows the pain of others. "Warm but Cool" is what politicians should be.
