Does this author--a non U.S. citizen living in Japan--have a balanced, dispassionate perspective? Or is his opinion truncated by having no skin in the game? And when he finger-points to the E.U.s dependency on "Daddy America", does he realize the extent to which the U.S. contributes to the security of Japan?
I'm well aware that Japan benefits from the US security umbrella. I'm also aware that the Japanese MSDF is of the same rough order of magnitude as the combined navies of all the EU nations (and possibly the UK as well)
