If japan gets the nuke, there is no stopping from south korea to get the nuke. But the real question is which country is stupid enough to use it.

And Ramenboy, Asian countries ARE afraid of Japan. I have known Koreans that are scared because they believe that Japan will invade in the future Laughing . Apparently you never took a history course in school because Japan ruled Asia around 70 years ago. China was their bitch. Korea 1 was their bitch. Korea 2 was there bitch. The reason why a country like China provokes them is because Japan has been emasculated since the end of the war. China is giving them excellent propaganda to get the ball rolling for a militant Japan to return. A few more of these outbursts by the Chinese and you can bet that the Japanese will start to change. Nukes are inevitable and, one day, Japan will have them.

Yo, failboy, your logic sucks and that was about 70 years ago. You spoke to koreans who thinks japan will invade them again? Like how many? 1? 2? 99% of South korean population isn't afraid of japan. They are more afraid of growing china. Japan is just another asian country with just economic power. Nothing more, nothing less. They are a shadow of former japanese empire. A shell without a body. East asia was the bitch of japan, that's all history. China is becoming the superpower of this globe and rest of asian countries including japan are becoming china's bitch. Even with japan rearming, they can't take on china by themselves. The only reason japan was able to take over asian countries was there weren't any nations that had conventional weapons to fight back, or they were already part of colonies of other nations. China was in the middle of civil war. Japan got lucky with timing invading other nations. That's all. They couldn't even defeat the invading soviet army in Mongolia and Manchuria who was already having a two front war with Nazi germany in eastern front. That's a fact. Learn your history right, weeaboo.

LIKE I SAID, FACE IT. Stop dickriding japan. they don't do kamikaze or banzaaaaaaiiii suicidal charge anymore.

Fail again, failboy. Japan does not have nukes. They are currently not allowed to have a nuke, period. Don't attempt to argue back without any further proof. Laughing


What makes this forum tolerable and interesting is the lack of posts like the one above. If you want to shout at people with emoticons go to myspace with the rest of the proles.

I only use what's available in this board. Wanna complain or moan about it? How about you leave this board? Yeah, I think that's a better alternative.

Mises is one of the most civil and productive posters on the current events forum. I think I speak for almost everyone when I say it would be a less interesting forum if he left.

I believe South Korea did have a nuclear program in the late 60's and early 70's .

Japan defeated a large Russian naval force and attacked Port Arthur t They defeated both Russian sea and Land forces. Preceding that they had whipped a new modern Chinese fleet in 1890. They fought another bloody war with the Soviets in Siberia in the 1920's.
I believe it would go the same way. an out gunned Chinese navy can not protect the sealanes. Japans electronic warfare capabilities would shut down the Chinese airforce. Japanese hits the three Gorges dam with a couple of missles , BALL GAME! Japan seizes xiamen or part of Shandong. Chinese government collapses and in power vacuum Japan seizes more territory, until a new warlord like Mao can take over japan would dominate China.

The chinese have made a major mistake. Buchannan calls this correctly. Japan will rearm, the E.U. and the U.s. will impose trade restrictions. The sentiment to rein China in has been growing and this incident probably is the tipping point.

I think I have to disagree with Pat Buchanan. You know, its in my forum contract somewhere.

America is doing a great job re-engaging East and Southeast Asia with a more recently and openly aggressive China in the backdrop.

Japan tried to invade border between Soviet/Manchukuo in battle of khalkhin gol in 1939, japan was utterly defeated along with their puppet manchukuo army and after that they never once dared to attack Soviet territory. In 1945, Soviet launched a major invasion on japanese controlled territories, they took over Mengjiang (inner Mongolia), Manchukuo, northern korea, Sakhalin islands, and Kuril islands and japanese imperial army was spanked back to southern korean peninsula and their army in china was completely cut off from japan.

To this day, japan is still afraid of Russia and won't make a big fuss about taking back sakhalin and kuril islands from the russians.

^ in other words, Japan was utterly defeated by the US: the greatest military power ever seen in history, by far. The Soviets then piled on at the very end and nabbed some territory while Japan was defenseless. Even South Korea did the same with Takeshima. Doesn't change the fact that Japan single handedly conquered nearly all of east Asia. Whether you like Japan or not, there's no way you can deny it was an astounding feat (unmatched by any non-Western nation in modern times).

If the US hadn't defeated Japan in WWII, it's quite possible the Japanese empire would exist to this day (or that, at the very least, Korea would still be a Japanese colony). Personally I'm glad Japan isn't an empire anymore, but trying to deny that it ever was with a bunch of LOL emoticons isn't going to fool anyone.

defenseless my ass. Why don't you pick up a ww2 history book and read how many japanese army was there to defend against the invading red army? They were totally prepared to fight the soviets and they lost fair and square. Actually, they were completely outmatched against the Soviets. Soviet tanks and katyusha mobile artilleries pretty much steam-rolled through the entire japanese controlled territories from Mongolia to korea. BTW, japan wasn't anywhere close to surrendering by the time the soviets invaded. Their main army stationed in east asia was largely untouched, unlike their navy that was completely smashed by US navy. So there goes your argument about "LOL DEFENSELESS JAPAN".

But wait, you are right, it wasn't a fair match. japan was completely defenseless against the better soviet war machines. It was a complete utter rape.

SK only took over what was rightfully theirs. Just like how France did with Alsace-Loraine from germany. Stop kidding yourself.

Like I said, I didn't deny anything. Japan was only lucky with great timing for invasions when no other nations gave a flying crap about japan and was much more concerned on containing nazi germany, until japs bombed Pearl Harbor. That's all I was saying with japan. Reading comprehension isn't your friend, no?

I did have a grudging respect for IGTG's use of them, though - now there was a true emoticon mixmaster.

Right.


One thing that occurred to me while reading this (fantastic) thread was a consideration of Japan's demographics.

Japan has an aging population. I wonder how, even with technological advances in weaponry, this would affect their ability to wage full-scale conventional warfare.

More like not having enough babies. Aging problem in both SK and japan can be solved without any problem. Just make a mass promotion about having a baby and give them all kinds of benefits for having babies. Just like what Russia is doing today.

There. Problem solved.

Japan had been fighting the US for years before the Soviets piled on, and Japan had been heavily bombed. Supplies were cut off. Figure out what that means. Get a clue.

Sorry, but Takeshima is most certainly Japan's and there is no evidence whatsoever that it was ever Korea's. If you want to have a serious debate on it (you can even post the first evidence if you want), I'll be happy to show you the light. But only if you can refrain from childish emoticon posting and hand waving.

I don't think he was arguing that. I think he was merely pointing out that China and Korea are weary of Japanese militarism, with good reason. If you're anti-Japan, that's fine. But you're trying to downplay with ridicule the fact that Japan conquered most of East Asia single-handedly. Not sure why you're doing that (nobody's buying it).

Luck had very little to do with anything. Japan timed its invasion well - it's called military strategy. It was smart. Not to mention Japan invaded and conquered most of China a few years before the Nazis even invaded Poland. The European powers were incapable of doing anything about Japan, because the Japanese military was extremely powerful. You need to brush up on your history and get some proper context (especially if you want to debate me on Japan, as I know it fairly well).

japan and soviets were already having a countless number of skirmishes throughout the border of russia. Georgy Zhukov was in control of Siberian units in Fareast Russia and he and the Siberian soldiers pretty much spanked japanese ass off every time they invaded, even before japs bombed pearl harbor.

Like I said, japanese army along with manchukuo army was largely untouched even when japan and US were fighting. WTF does japan getting bombed and supplies getting cut off has anything to do with this? The supplies were already coming from conquered chinese territories.

Luck had everything to do with japan. Just like how luck played for hitler when the conquest of france only took in just 6 weeks. Even hitler thought he was lucky with that one. Most of countries were more concentrated on a larger threat, for a much better reason. For example, Britain had to pull all those soldiers, supplies, war machines from asian colonies to support the war in western front, leaving nothing but bunch of small number garrisons and warships to fend off the colonies. So did the dutch colonies. Japan didn't face a real army until they fought the US and the soviets.

You need to learn a better WW2 history. I bet you read one of those silly whitewashed japanese history text book. Laughing Laughing Laughing

Japanese war machines were made in Japanese factories, which were bombed. Obviously. Not to mention the economy was decimated, which makes it pretty hard to wage war. Seriously, try and use your brain just a little bit before posting (I'm sure you've got one)...

Alright, I'll start then: Japan claimed the islets "terra nullius" prior to annexing Korea. Korea has no maps showing the islets as its territory prior to this time. If you think otherwise, go ahead and post your evidence.

Sorry but no amount of LOL emoticons from immature asiafinest trolls posting on daves is going to change that fact.

Like I said before, reading comprehension? Japan and Soviets were already having a border skirmish from 1938-1939, it even lasted longer even after the great purge in Red Army. Zhukov was in charge of Far east russia and fighting japanese army until he was recalled to Moscow to fend off the Germans in 1941. After 1941, Zhukov was in charge of invading germany. Another soviet general named Aleksandr Vasilevsky was in charge of invading japanese territories. Under his command, newly created Katyusha rocket artilleries and newly created heavy tanks, KV-1, KV-2, KV-85, IS-, IS-2, IS-3 literally steam-rolled throughout Mongolia, Manchuria, and up to northern Korea and torn japanese army apart. Like I said, japanese army had no weapons to counter these soviet machines. These aren't your normal light tanks that were used by soviets 1930s-1940s after all.

More like try to use your tiny brain. There is this thing call logic, which you seems to be lacking. All historical records show that the japanese army stationed in east asia was getting the supplies from factories built in china? Why is that, you ask? Why, because it saves more gas to travel from japan to mainland china with supplies and war equipments. It's more economical to build factories in territories like Manchukuo and Nanjing to fuel the japanese army in main land, which they obviously did. Most of factories in japan was busy creating carriers, battleships to fuel the navy war machine.

Looks like your brain failed you, once again.

Japan claiming Dokdo is a foreign land, also BTW, this comes straight from a japanese history professor.
"Measuring 115 cm by 123 cm, one map was produced by the Japanese Army in 1877 and depicts the country's sovereign territory in detail, but does not contain Dokdo. In 1889, Japanese surveyors created the country's first-ever map on a 200,000:1 scale compiled from all of the maps that had been produced until that time, but even that makes no reference to Dokdo, Hosaka said."

You are a classic case of a naive fool who have been spoon fed by white washed japanese history. You, sir, are ignorant of WW2 history. There is no arguing about the fact that japan was lucky. I even provided historical details to prove my point. How old are you? You can't even come up with a descent historical facts to back up your sad excuse of arguments. Sorry, but my awesome emoticons will have to do the justice to this weeaboo troll.
