re: #181 The Sanity Inspector

Erm, like so many of our allies, since WWII Japan relies on us for the heavy lifting of their defense. Notice how we had to get involved in Bosnia because the Europeans couldn’t put out a brushfire in their own front yard. No, isolationism is not an option for us, and hasn’t been since the 1930s.

Also - wasn’t Japan prohibited from building an offensive capability for decades after WWII?
