PM Fukuda: A “Philosopher!”
Posted by Guy on February 19, 2008
A Confucian, or just an old crocodile crying?
Gacuette is almost certain Prime Minister Fukuda must be a “philosopher!” Fukuda expressed anger over the arrest of a U.S. Marine for alleged trespassing, following the alleged rape of a 14-year-old girl by another Marine.
Fukuda, as if he has been in a “drunken slumber” since 1945, asked ‘what’s happened’ with U.S. Marines?
Well, Einstein, try a tour of duty in [Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan,] Iraq … Or better still, lest you’ve forgotten the Japanese are still Asians, try this for size:
US soldiers are trained to murder, rape and torture Asians—you’ll excuse them if they blur the line between “friend” and foe every now and then.
Then again, Fukuda couldn’t possibly risk blowing a big hole in the Okinawan economy, could he? Otherwise, why not confine the US military personnel to their bases 24/7 to prevent them harming the people?
It is, of course, politically inexpedient [syn: suicidal] for the “elite” LDP to send the US military packing.
