They probably had no idea it would leave them defenseless against an insane manchild with nuclear weapons. In fact how could they? We were the only ones with them at the time.

Friendly reminder, the JSDF is actually one of the largest, best equipped, and technologically advanced militaries in the world.

They wouldn't be a pushover.


If North Korea tried to invade Japan, or even tried to use a conventional air force attack, they'd be slaughtered by the JSDF. Nukes are the game changer, but they're the game changer for everybody.

I don't think continually blaming America is fair when Japan as a whole continually reaffirms its pacifism doctrine of its own volition. Not to mention the fact that despite their pacifism, Japan actually does have a very effective and advanced self-defense force and Shinzo Abe is trying to strengthen it in light of current events.

I'm not disputing that Japan's military is one of the best in the world, but I've seen that website before and I wonder if it's really a good estimate of a country's military strength.

It does not have Russia far behind the US which seems odd because the US greatly outclasses Russia in power projection, which is probably what matters more than anything these days.
