Looking For Japan's Radioactive Mutant Army
First: we are not suggesting Japan's army is comprised of radioactive mutants - perhaps just those stationed within 10 kilometers of the Fukushima gift that keeps on giving alpha through gamma rays. We are merely saying that if one takes Abe's latest deluded ramblings that Japan is "ready to counter China's power" literally instead of merely more nationalistic bluster by a prime minister whose first term ended in the runs (literally), then the demographically crippled island nation that has a soaring food and energy inflation problem, sliding wages and radiation that comes in 100,000+ RDA dosage increments, would be well advised to have a few invincible X-Men in its army's ranks if indeed it has any intention of taking on China. Because as Walter Sobchak would say, "this is not Man(churia)."
What else did the not so big man, with the very big ego (supposedly because he thinks doing Goldman's reflationary bidding helps anyone besides Goldman's year end bonus pool), say? Some very strange things - from the WSJ:"Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said he envisions a resurgent Japan taking a more assertive leadership role in Asia to counter China's power, seeking to place Tokyo at the helm of countries in the region nervous about Beijing's military buildup amid fears of an American pullback." He added that "many nations were concerned that China was attempting to use force to change the status quo in Asia, adding that Tokyo's role as the region's leader is to urge Beijing not to follow such a path."
Uhm, did he say "Tokyo's role as the region's leader"? Precisely in what is Tokyo a leader any more? Imported Chinese smog? Unsolicited gamma radiation? Goughing at the pump? Sex doll sales? That pretty much covers Tokyo's current leadership areas in the region. Sadly, it is this kind of sociopathological self-delusion (and denial) that is the mark of the Japanese government, and why not only was Fukushima a guaranteed outcome (and has now become the worst radioactive catastrophe in history, nearly three years after the explosion), but why day by day, Japan's society is slowly sinking into the Pacific. Mostly metaphorically, but also literally.
The absolutely hilarious snippets from the sociopath continue:
In an exclusive, wide-ranging interview with The Journal, Mr. Abe also defended his program of economic reforms against growing criticism that the package lacks substance—though he offered few details of new programs, or a timetable, that anxious foreign investors have been seeking.d
What can one say but LOL. But the funniest stuff was naturally reserved for how this feeble, mutagenic David is approaching the Chinese goliath.
"There are concerns that China is attempting to change the status quo by force, rather than by rule of law. But if China opts to take that path, then it won't be able to emerge peacefully," he added.
"So it shouldn't take that path, and many nations expect Japan to strongly assert that. And they hope that as a result, China will take responsible action in the international community."
Mr. Abe, whom China has criticized as attempting to whitewash Japan's wartime actions and beef up its military, also said countries in the region shared concerns over Beijing's arms buildup.
"It's not just Japan. Many countries have expressed concerns over the increase in China's military spending which is not transparent," he said.
Actually it is just Japan, because unlike Japan which still lives in the 80s and thinks it is a superpower, still thinks the Nikkei 30000 is just within reach, still thinks it can restart its 30 or so nukes, still thinks that buying Rock Center was a brilliant idea, and the Walkman and Trinitron are the second coming of the iPod, the other countries in the region know to keep their mouth shut when it's good for them.
We are far more amused and impressed by China's resilience to putting Abe in his place. Then again, it is just as easy to bleed Japanese society dry by exchanging China's massive trade surplus for Japanese labor on ever more-devalued terms.
In retrospect, perhaps it really is not too late for Japan to get that radioactive mutant army, because at the rate things are going that will very soon be its only hope...

Japan is doomed no matter what it does. Might as well go down barking
According to this guy, 95 percent of the wind from Japan blows over the Pacific to the USA. Cancer spiking in California.

Hopefully over the Bay area.
"Four breasted version"
Take from Boris, extra nipple is not all fun for game.
You had experience with Ukraine chirnipple versions? Thanks for the heads up Boris...
Principle source of inconveniencing is spontaneous hair growth on back in proximity of new "nipple" is make shave extreme difficult and pain.

Spasibo! Boris is love of ZH (in manly way)! No shrub and many smart funny contributor is bring Boris to joyous rapture!
Bad grammar - "is bring joyous rapture to Boris!"
thanks.
"The East Coast has been hit harder than the West Coast. It comes in through the Pacific Northwest, along the US/Canadian border, then sweeps down as the jetstream passes the Rockies, swirling through the mid-west and the East Coast as it heads south towards Florida.
The biggest problem on the West Coast is the radioactive sea spray, which goes several miles inland, and the radioactive BuckyBalls, which bounce along the surface and Lord knows where they go.
After two + years, it's now pretty well disbursed in the rainfall, so at this point the US is getting dosed pretty evenly across the country."

Children's thyroid cancer rates up over 20,000% in the greater Fukushima area, and spreading into Tokyo:
'AP: Japan cancer surgeon in fear of what’s to come after Fukushima disaster — “A terrible thing has happened, but people don’t realize it at all”'
http://enenews.com/japan-cancer-surgeon-fear-whats-after-fukushima-disas...
Yes, we are downwind, and yes, we are next.
They have been doing the thyroid screenings around Fukushima for a while now. They did not want to release the results because people would not understand them. WTF? How hard is it to understand that a kid is NOT SUPPOSED to have thyroid nodules/cysts/cancer?
...Yes, we are downwind, and yes, we are next.
Every fucking body is downwind.
"Cancer spiking in California."
How can you tell?

"+1 for three breasted mutant women."
Japanese men don't want them. I'll take 3 ('women', that is).
Don't laugh at Japan. They don't like it. It only eggs them on and they are dangerous when they have nothing to lose.
Fortunately for us, they're terrible swimmers. And their wings are too short to fly anywhere. Wait, are we talking about the Japanese or penguins?
Rasis.
Japanese. Penguins are great swimmers.
Jesus Christ. The Japanese penguins are pissed again. Stay out of the water.
"... they are dangerous when they have nothing to lose."
Are you thinking about seppuku or kamikazes ? The younger generations are apparently very different to older ones .
By the way, it seems that a lot of people are dangerous when they have nothing to lose, not only the Japanese . In fact, Sun-Tzu, in the art of war, advises to put soldiers in a desperate situation to make them fight ruthlessly, in some circumstances .
As Napolenon said "When your enemy is on course to self anihilation don't get in his way"
Did he say that, or overhear it?
He didn't speak English well, so for sure he did not say exactly that.
Japan is the enemy? Their cars beat the shit out of UAW shit, and I'd like to see them finish off the UAW completely, then sell us robots to kill of the SEIU. Those fucks and their politicians helped give us modern day Detroit, Obama, high unemployment, and an ever shrinking manufacturing competitiveness. Go Japan.
Yeah. Let's have a caste system where the .01% have printed enough money to replace the proles with robots and the rest of the populace lives in Judge Dredd styled block apartments, or just killed of by the military servants of the .01.
Sounds like paradise...
Whoa - what is a common element that we see when their is unrest in the world whether it be in Cairo, Turkey, Gaza Strip, heck even Chicago? Single young males mulling about without any women in the crowd. It really doesn't matter what race the crowd is - if there are no women there is going to be violent trouble.
What were we reading the other day? - that 60% of the young males in Tokyo (and in Japan in whole) don't have a girlfriend?
Ready made army.
China had better take this seriously because of the Japanese ancestor's wartime actions. History tends to repeat itself.
History may repeat itself but demographic collapse of any particular culture generally does not. Imperial Japan had high birth rates. It's not the percentage of young men without girlfriends or jobs that poses problems, it is the percentage of young versus not young that determines how much trouble they can cause domestically, and their absolute numbers that determines what size army can be built out of them. They don't have a lot of young men in Japan, by either measure. In China they have a lot in absolute numbers, but again they are few relative to the whole population of China. The one child policy has been going since the 70's. do the math.
A very long time ago, everything in "that part of the world" was under the control of China. Japan included. China made everyone pay taxes in one form or another, kinda like how the Aztecs operated. Anyone who did not tow the line was slapped down, Japan included. The animosity between Japan and China goes a long way back...
Why should China take that seriosry? They have more EXTRA Males than Japan has people.
Agreed with the premise behind the rest of your post though. Japan's elite is entrenched but the populous is too apathetic (and/or engrossed in distractions) to do anything about it.
(((((latent samurai overhang)))))
Japan suffers most from the same ills affecting Americans...poor leadership by an arrogant - and increasingly fascist - elite class coupled with a population which has neither the means nor the will to do anything about it (the hidden benefit of government education, no doubt).
Of course, it is worse for Japan which also suffers being America's Asian puppet state.
Perhaps, radiation can enhance other appendages - it's an ill wind that blows nobody any good.
Not sure how much this angle has been covered at ZH...must do wonders for quality control....and the safety culture at nuclear plants!

Yakuza labor structure formed base of nuclear industryFeb 2012, Asahi Shimbun
“Do you want to know about worker staffing?” he says, as he narrows his eyes and grimaces. “That was lucrative. When I was asked to gather up 10 workers, I called up yakuza and construction dealers.”
Stay out of Japan,,,Did you hear what happened to Tylers cousin???He moved to japan for 6 months,and it was ok,but when he got back,you could tell something had happend to him in japan.
His dick shrankup,his eyes slanted and now he wants to open up a laundry!!!!!!
STAY OUT OF JAPAN!!!!!
Rasis.
Hey W.B.
Add this one to the list
http://rt.com/news/japan-state-secrets-law-712/Japan still lives in the late 19th century, much less the 1980's. Unlike Germany, Japan's leadership has never come to terms its neighbors, choosing to hide behind the USA's skirts while it arrogantly flips the rest the bird. Japan is still technically in a state of war with Russia, for example. It never paid war reparations to China. It is as if WW2 never happened, or never ended in defeat for Japan.
"It is as if WW2 never happened,"
Nuke 'em again, dammit!

We don't need to, they're nuking themselves

Are you sure? And while that may be true of a select handful of government and military officials, it is overwhelmingly not true of their population who have lost all spirit and drive to do, well, much of anything.
This tells it all and a eye opening read.

Japan not telling it's own people of the true dangers or what was going on (and which they continue to cover up and or minimize) was terrible beyond comprehension.
The US shutting down the EPA monitoring sites can be considered a crime, and should be treated as such. There is ample evidence of the fallout that reached US shores. It was not 'minimal' by any means. It was studied at length and in depth at the university level. This information should come out drip by drip over the coming years.
It's a shame that it was prevented from being publisized. The US gov. chose to not publisize measurements due to the justification that there was nothing they could do to prevent the fallout from coming down in the US. The problem with that reasoning is that there are precautions that individuals can and should take to minimize their exposure. It's a public health issue and US citizens should have been informed. They were not.
I'll be damned. Obamacare is phase 1 of the US FUKashima Emergency Response. Last man standing!
Speaking of Fuckushima, need a job?

China should be scared fuckress. Everyone knows the Japanese navy forms a giant robot.
Nah, the real power is hidden in their RV fleet.
In some of my more sombre moments i wonder how this world would deal with an entire Japanese population that might need to evacuate Japan due to Fukushima spreading its poison.
I also wonder whether a scorned or helpless Japan might have a rogue element that decides to commit hara kiri by triggering Fukushima to blow up.
The world has been too quiet in its help to Japan in dealing with Fukushima and this worries me.
Hopefully I am entirely wrong but I think that Fukushima may prove a catalytic event for the world and certanly for Japan.
Time for a miracle because this world is looking mighty shaky no matter which part of the foundation you look at.
Judging from that video on sex industry in Japan ((I watched probably 10 out of 13 minutes, skipping through the dominatrix part (really Yakuza, that's the best 'illegal' thing you had to offer?)) I would surmise that Japan's "men" are too sissified to go up against any country at all, let alone China.
They have lost their Samurai spirit, and to a much greater extent than Germany was mentally and spiritually stripped of her Prussian Landschnekt tradition. If Chinese warriors started pouring into Honshu they would find men and women too engrossed in their electronic gadgets to even realize what's going on, and, puzzlingly, cuddle cafes.
China doesn't have warriors, only limp-dicked hackers.
Afraid that'd probably happen here as well. All I ever see these days is folks (thanks El Presidente) with their heads down in their fucking gadgets. It's an open invitation to an enemy that the gates are open, come on in.
Japan is in a hell of a shape right now but that's exactly what makes the situation so dangerous. The Japanese have tremendously advanced technology at their disposal. If they wanted to do it, they could have nuclear weapons in 3 months. How many do they need to tell the Chinese to go fuck themselves if push comes to shove? A couple of nukes popped over China's 10 major metropolitan areas should do the trick. Yes, Japan would also go up in flames but that's just the point: neither side would want that to happen thus there would be an uncomfortable standoff between a larger, stronger China and a much weaker Japan with a Samson Complex. And don't forget how the Japanese would have no compunctions about lobbing a nuke at North Korea if Kim Il Suck ever gets too froggy. No....it's not a good thing that Japan could decide to build a doombsday bomb AND has the means to do so.
Seriously, fuck China.
That shithole should have been nuked as soon Mao took over.
Human just few DNAs away from Apes. Thanks God Japs' radiactives don't remove these DNAs from American, we have enough 'sheeples' here already.
I already stopped eating Pacific Salmon except Alaska crab, now I worry spring water from Mt.Shasta.

Tokyo just got hit with a 7.6 earthquake.

the quake missed Tokyo by a few hundred miles ...
Ya, and CNN top story as of right now is.......JonBenet. So sick of hearing about this kid that's been dead for years.
Christ, what a screwed up article. It's almost impossible to remove the real, or the pertinent, from the absurd.
1 Mutations are rarely beneficial. The idea that you can build an army out of cripples is bizarre. Do you get your science from comic books?
2. Forget Japan's rivalry with China. Japan is proceeding toward a hyper-inflationary depression which will swamp any other distraction. The Bank of Japan thinks it can control the inflation rate to 2%, but that is highly unlikely. They, like all Keynesians, fear a deflation and this will push them into a hyper inflation. Even cutting back on money creation will, soon, be seen as deflationary.
3. Japan will be forced to start up its nuclear reactors, because they will run out of foreign exchange to buy oil.
4. It's far too soon for Japan's exploration in Methane Hydrates, off the northern islands, to produce enough natural gas to replace oil imports.
So, Japan is screwed any which way it turns. It's leadership does not impress. They just want to kick the can down the road and they have run out of road.
How predictable. When things are not going well at home, point your finger at an outside enemy. This Abe joker is dangerously delusional.
