Crime is worse in Okinawa because of the Americans, many of whom know they can't be legally prosecuted by the local authorities. Foreigners already commit more crime but the US army has many soldiers from a cultural background which makes them prone to crime even at home, on top of this their is a very long history of US servicemen committing terrible crimes across Okinawa and getting away with it, locals often don't report crimes due to shame or face and the police put a lot less resources into crimes they know will have no resolution, it is scary as several American serial killers were posted as US servicemen to Okinawa and are often seen as having a quiet period while in Japan while in fact the previously mentioned factors mean they they were in fact likely active in Japan but just never reported or caught. I used to live in Notting Hill (a rich area with tall building and lots of high crime communities nearby) people would break into even the top floors through the outside windows even though they presumably meant scaling the house, though once they did they could get the stolen items out from the inside to having locks which unlocked without a key from the inside. It should be noted that things have got a lot better over time, during occupation the American troops acted almost as bad as the Soviets did in the siege of Berlin, but for a lot longer. This days it is still bad but the press in no longer censored so when the really terrible things happen there is public outcry, however it is still a lot less safe than elsewhere in Japan, though there are also foreign areas in Tokyo which are probably worse.

Ah yeah, and historically at least Americans usually weren't breaking in to steal things (but commit rape), and were often armed, which explains the paranoid level of security.

Integrated or unified would be positive, annex neutral though it also implies some force and conquer or invade would be negative. What he said was correct as far as I'm concerned, there is no point being antagonistic or moralizing in a video about concrete buildings.
