I know of all those things well. And I was guessing that's what you meant despite the obfuscation. Thanks. Good to get the straightforward meaning out of you.
Don't know what that has to due to with Japan arming themselves today. I'd say their people have changed (quite) a bit over the last 77 years. Sorta like the Germans maybe?
Oh, no one is not permitting Japan from spending/having a large military except themselves. No outside forces involved. And they do already spend around 1% of GDP on military. I wish they'd start a major building up now. Signed, Warmonger
