Japan is preparing for anything that North Korea may do if they make tests of ballistic misseles and they are worried that those tests may be similar to the one in 1999 when North Korea fired a missele that flew over Japan.

Better that NK doesn't make something foolish and fire misseles that may contain nuclear warheads instead of a simple test.

Well, the Imperial Japanese Defense Forces have already established a precedent beyond their self-imposed 1,000 mile limit during the Afghanistan cleanout; shades of 1937 come flooding into my mind's eye...

Even the 1 million-man North Korean Army couldn't hope to take the Japanese, IF they want to clean Kim il Jong's clock for him...even the Chinese are scared to death of Japan's potential as an adversary.
