Possibility of Nuclear Weapons on the Island? -

Japan to Come Clean on Secret Nuke Deals With U.S. - Asia | Travel | Map - FOXNews.com
Japan to Come Clean on Secret Nuke Deals With U.S. "The 1969 document, signed by Sato and President Richard Nixon, showed they agreed that U.S.-occupied Okinawa would be returned to Japan, but the U.S. would retain the right to have nuclear weapons on the island if the necessity arose. The agreements on Okinawa were a key part of the secret pacts that also covered U.S. warships entering ports throughout Japan." "Japanese today are more shocked by the cover-up than by the deed itself, but they remain attached to the non-nuclear principle." Think things could change?

Guess you think the Associated Press "can suck it" too. Which is fine, but you would still be off topic. Fox News haters remind me of weak minded Nazis burning books.

besides that, the u.s. has had nukes positioned all over the world, including the seas around Japan (they're called nuclear subs) so if they're on the mainland, woopdie doo.

When you place nuclear weapon on a territory of some foreign country, you automatically convert this territory into a target for possible nuclear counter-attack. Plain and simple. I don't think Japan would be happy to become a primary target for Russian/Chinese/North Korean ICBMs armed by nuclear and thermo-nuclear warheads just for the sake of American interests.

I am in Japan now, and this is the first I am hearing of this.
I am not sure what you mean by "Do you think things could change?"

@termogard
how do you think it will become a target? give me one instance where a country has been attacked by another gov't whilst that country has held nuclear weapons... the u.s. has attacked thousands of tiny islands in the pacific and inherently killed off small tribes all over the place. did they have nukes? no - has the u.s. ever attacked.. say, russia whilst they have harbored nuclear arsenal? nukes are simply a deferment strategists tool. they are never intended to be used. because of second strike capability a country that has nukes is ensured to be kept safe from a nuclear attack. attacking a country with second strike capabilities leads to a least desirable outcome for all players involved and will inevitably seek out peaceful tactics (softpower) as a result and of course there are technical differences, but in the end, both icbm's and slbm's are fired from one location, strike another location delivering a nuclear payload and annihilate lots and lots of lives.

I bet you know about concepts of "First strike" and "Second strike" and "Massive retaliation". According to *Second strike* and *Massive retaliation* concepts, all targets which provided launches of ICBMs during the operation *First strike* must be attacked in response.
