    Consider that Japan did have a nuclear meltdown and it is essentially a US territory. Chernobyl isn’t in Russia, it’s in Ukraine.

      I’m sorry, but no. The US is not responsible for Japan’s nuclear meltdown. Japan is a separate, sovereign nation. That is insane.

      Chernobyl was in Ukraine/the USSR, both Ukraine and Russia heavily fund the current containment efforts. I don’t know what to tell you. That is a fact.

      Your Japan statement is so absurd I just can’t take you seriously.

        Why doesn’t Japan have it’s own foreign policy? It’s foreign policy is dictated by the US. Why doesn’t Japan have an active military, only a self defense force? US won’t let them. Why are there dozens of US bases in Japan? Because they are conquered and occupied by the United States. They may not have the title of US territory but that is their status.
