The Japan-USA Relationship

Comment from a reader on "New Japanese Administration Can Give The USA To Su...":

"The Japanese administration had already demonstrated and showed to be NON pro U.S.?" Really?

Is this to suggest the incoming administration will be "anti U.S." I wonder how much the author of this humorous input knows about the political realities of the US-Nippon alliance, now going on 57 years?

Just what would be "shrunk" in the SOFA agreement? With a rogue state (N. Korea) in their backyard rattling nuclear sabers, its difficult to imagine the GOJ being dumb enough to eschew the benefits of the nuclear umbrella long provided by the U.S.

If nothing else, the Nips are anything but dummies, at least when it comes to their national security.

To suggest a correlation between national interests of Japan and the Philippines is at best ludicrous.
