Mondale on the North Korean situation

While I agree in principle, I'd rather NK sail another'n over Japan - then let Japan do a little of the world's dirty work. Li'l Kim is cruisin' for a bruisin', no two ways about it.

Having renounced war, the possession of war potential, the right of belligerency, and the possession of nuclear weaponry, it held the view that it should possess only the minimum defense necessary to face external threats. The Japanese government values its close relations with the United States, and it remains dependent on the United States nuclear umbrella.

Unless Japan is faking it, they aren't going to do much to respond to NK aggression.
