But FoxNews does bring in the important front page news on the front page that other news sources put hide in the back pages or don't post at all. You should start getting your news from FoxNews all the time.
I am in Japan, watching the news and talking to people every day, and this has not come up once. I have talked about the possibility of moving the base in Okinawa, and this seems to be pretty persistant news here, at least right now. but nothing about Japan possibly agreeing to allow nuclear weapons on Japanese soil. You can say that is mutually exclusive, but is an alternative experience to Fox news. (Which I avoid like the plague. There is nothing "fair or balanced" about their "reporting".)

Does the board think Japan would accept Nuclear weapons on Japanese soil? There are none now; will it change now that this deed has been uncovered? With the North Korean threat... etc. A portion of the artilce was Japanese reaction to the possibility. I thought the board reaction might be of value...

In any event this is actually quite a historic find.
How is asking for clarification nitpicking? I think you are reading too much into my very simple question.
