And Poland gets vaporized too.
No, it would be better if a Chinese jet, trying to bomb Russia, accidentally bomber Martinus' flat.  Sort of like you guys did to the Chinese Embassy in Serbia.  That way, Poland can endure and pass more laws about how Jesus is their king and shit like that, annoying Marti from beyond the grave, but sparing us his hateful nonsense.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

:yeahright: I think it's been established by now that we bombed the Chinese embassy quite deliberately, and for a good reason.  Not that I'm claiming there won't be a good reason to bomb Martinus' flat, mind you.

Buncha softies. If you bomb his flat, there's a high likelihood of death and much lower likelihood of living with painful disfigurement.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

i understand politically why japan cannot let go of the islands, but by all rights they belong to china (or taiwan.. tomato, tomato..). they were possessed in 1895 along with the rest of japanese territorial acquisitions, which have since (rightfully) reverted back to their original owner. why should they remain in their possession?

Part of this has been mentioned before, but...

Given they were included by the USA as part of the Ryukyus and thus under their administration post WWII (as per article III of the Treaty of San Francisco). a situation to which China made no objection (either as the ROC or PRC as far as I can tell) then it seems pretty clear that China's voided whatever historical claims it may have had.

In fact, should Japan renounce it's rights to the Islands it seems logical that they should then revert to the United States as the most recent preceding country to have had administrative control of the area via recognised international treaty (if the USA wants them, of course.) :bowler:

If Japan wants to be ready for war, they need to make more babies 20 years ago.

 Japanese births are improving, though- and they don't seem so bad, set against their neighbours :)
It can't be helped...We'll have to use 'that'

Josquius

Yeah. Japan has birth rate problems but China's problems are on a whole other scale.
I was reading the other day actually that Japan's move towards a declining population was probally wanted and designed for by politicians in the 70s and 80s. A less crowded Japan would be a good thing. They however didn't consider the dodgy implications of getting there.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Yeah, well nobody listens to me, so why should they listen to the US Navy?

Because the US Navy is relevant?

Because I've been more right than they have been lately.

Now fuck off before I ban you.  Neil's probably out to dinner, and won't be back from Applebee's for at least two hours.
