It's a shame that people today tend to continue to blame the common people of a country for the acts of their leaders, such as how America as a whole is blamed by many Muslim people for the acts of our leaders, and instead of attacking those leaders, they commit terrorist actions on ordinary people.<br /><br />But I also understand why these terrorists do that. They cannot attack our leaders directly and yet they must have someone to attack to appease their own people.<br /><br />The leaders of most people will not even try to attack the leaders of other countries directly since they do not wish to draw retaliation upon themselves and risk their own lives. Of course, this is not true in every case, but it is fairly standard practice to most leaders around the world.<br /><br />Why do you think that WMDs were outlawed by various treaties around the world? It is because the leaders did not want their own asses to be at risk, so they did their best to limit warfare to only soldiers being at risk.PervySageChucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-27338262555189202642015-12-21T15:23:48.397+08:002015-12-21T15:23:48.397+08:00I've always found racism to be absurdly hilari...I've always found racism to be absurdly hilarious considering that if you go back far enough, we are all related to each other on the genetic level.<br /><br />I've traced my own ancestry back far enough to know that while my phenotype from the past several generations is primarily that of a typical white Caucasian, further back, there has been quite a few other genetic additions from many other ethnic groups whose bloodlines were mixed into my family tree. In fact, the ONLY ethnic group that I could not go back far enough to include in my family tree was the Maori people of New Zealand. Although I did have some ancestors who plied those seas as pirates several hundred years ago, so there is probably some Maori blood in me that was never documented.PervySageChucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-66510838263552613262015-12-21T06:54:47.755+08:002015-12-21T06:54:47.755+08:00Also wanted to mention that the answers people arr...Also wanted to mention that the answers people arrive to likewise reflect on their own character.

For example, a Japanese politician or policeman may not accept cash for favours, hence it is a bribe.<br /><br />However, the nobility of the Empire are forbidden very little, so sweetening them up with gifts is not only not bribery but customary, much like visiting gifts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672564861405123292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-85789824877642788962015-12-21T06:14:02.027+08:002015-12-21T06:14:02.027+08:00Why even bother with the UN charade when they can ...Why even bother with the UN charade when they can simply "disappear" them into Black Sites?

If you're Japan worried about North Korea, go talk to China. If you're worried about China, talk to Russia. If you're worried about Russia, talk to the US. <br /><br />During the Vietnam War, the Vietnamese got their support from Russia because they didn't trust the Chinese next door. Their hunch proved right, since immediately after they defeated the Americans, the Chinese staged their own invasion of Vietnam.<br /><br />The point of a Self-Defense Force is to ensure that it's not cost-effective to try wresting concessions by military force. It is not intended to enforce treaties, as that would require power projection capabilities.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672564861405123292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-39034105046873503562015-12-20T19:12:12.939+08:002015-12-20T19:12:12.939+08:00Bad Pervy!

If that had happened in Japan, a lot of the people will be screaming "Neo-Niponese warmongering!!".<br /><br />I don't like the Japanese as a whole though I have a few Japanese friends. Lost family to them in WWII, but I'm not so blind that I can't see the double standards applied to them either. Their government ain't helping with the whitewashing and their enemies are not about to let it slide either.<br /><br />And Clancy isn't really pragmatic in dealing with problems. Most of it involves heavy firepower directed at the annoyance of the day.Owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18391214831340182290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-16350746212279129962015-12-20T09:44:53.991+08:002015-12-20T09:44:53.991+08:00Thanks for all the efforts and great workThanks for all the efforts and great workAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03465470158480965646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-82062471534139351662015-12-20T09:18:12.847+08:002015-12-20T09:18:12.847+08:00Thanks, amended.Thanks, amended.Skythewoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09822518075273221670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-37286855485341364052015-12-20T02:59:14.731+08:002015-12-20T02:59:14.731+08:00Yes, there are times when a visual image cna conve...Yes, there are times when a visual image cna convey more meaning that a written passage, and also times when a written passage can have much more of an impact on the reader than any picture can. <br /><br />This is why I choose to read the novel, the manga, AND watch the anime. So I can get the most out of ALL three versions of this very entertaining story!<br /><br />And of course, there are numerous side stories that I hope the author will explore in more detail in future volumes, such as what the other countries in our world will plan in their desire to reap benefits from the "Special Region" and how the political fallout will be dealt with by the author, but I also see that this may be difficult for the author to expound upon in an entertaining manner, unless he has been influenced by such authors as Tom Clancy, who excels at creating storylines involving political intrigue and exposing the pragmatic aspects of dealing with those problems.PervySageChucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-16913255421256690812015-12-20T02:37:20.162+08:002015-12-20T02:37:20.162+08:00I thought incorrect words would be easy to find us...I thought incorrect words would be easy to find using the "find" command in any editor or browser.

But tyrants and dictators will still always use censorship as their FIRST tool to control their subjects while expaining it as "Necessary for the protection of our youth." But, as history has repeatedly shown, once censorship gets its first foot in the door, it will never willingly stop or reverse itself, but only continue to make more and more ideas illegal. In America, this is most perfectly illustrated by the "Political Correctness" movement, which uses the excuse of "We mustn't offend ANYONE!"<br /> to expand the government's control of how people think, thus making it easier to control the masses.PervySageChucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-20232628855186070892015-12-20T02:28:01.778+08:002015-12-20T02:28:01.778+08:00Ya, it was a great speech she gave.Ya, it was a great speech she gave.Village Idiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17073200545484416930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-34337794402317995682015-12-20T02:27:35.826+08:002015-12-20T02:27:35.826+08:00I cant imagine why.I cant imagine why.MrPicklesAndTeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17297276030952533365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4225665848364118863.post-41816810662813141152015-12-20T02:19:41.891+08:002015-12-20T02:19:41.891+08:00One note to our anonymous proofreader...
