  1. I've always felt that Japan has been a bit nieve when it comes to the US, the US have shown in the 80's when they saw Japan as a threat on the economic front, the US didn't wish Japan well, they actually tried to drag them down because the US felt threaten as Japan was growing as an economic power house. The US have shown much of the same from the 90's onwards towards the EU, but in the case of the EU, they are big enough to stand up to the US, so the US has had little impact on them. If Japan were smart, they really need to diversify their political and economic relations around the world, but clearly Japan is limited in how friendly they can get with China, which leaves the only other major power, the EU, and Japan can diversify in many other ways, but Japan really needs to stop being up America's arse, because the US only cares about them if it's in their own interest to do so and only if Japan is not seen as a threat to the US like they were in the 80's, but the same message could be said for many other countries that are very short-sighted when it comes to the US. In other words, keep the US on friendly terms, but don't for a second think they have your interest at heart because the US is based on money, that's what they really care about, and they are quite happy to use others to gain more profit, even willing to throw others under a bus, in other words, the UK, which has been short-sighted on the US for some time now. The irony is in all this, as China continues to rise as a power, US policies are likely going to become more aggressive on China and on friends to make sure they do as they are told, but seriously, some countries need to wake up because they come across as weak with all the bending over lol, this is even more the case for EU countries that have no excuses, they've got the EU and can be a major power if they pool resources together, but there are some wimpy countries there that like bending over lol.
