No this is not a joke. At the opening of the G-20 economic summit, in Russia, President Obama was able to meet with Japanese Prime Minister Abe.

What did they talk about. The ongoing worldwide recession that has affected Japan for 20 years and America for 5 years?

No.

How about developing a joint plan for the destroyed Fukushims Daiichi nuclear power plant site. We might try to keep 300 tons of highly radioactive waste water from entering the Pacific Ocean everyday - for eternity?

No.

USA Today reports:
"Attending a G-20 summit in Russia otherwise devoted to the global economy, Obama said before a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe that he looked forward to "an extensive conversation" about Syria.

That includes "our joint recognition that the use of chemical weapons in Syria is not only a tragedy but also a violation of international law that must be addressed," Obama said."
WTF! All Obama wanted to talk about was getting Japan's approval to punish Syria's president Bashar al Assad for allegedly using poison gas on his enemies.

I guess the problem with gassing people is that it kills masses of people without discrimination - kind of like a Predator drone at a wedding party.

In the past to get Japan to yield to our wishes we used the technique of carpet bombing Japanese cities with explosives and incendiary devices until we got a firestorm started.

Even though the America killed over a million Japanese this way they refused to see things our way. Then we got smart and started dropping atomic bombs on Japanese cities.

That did the trick. Needless to say, America argues to this day that we only did it to save lives.

After his meeting with Abe U.S. President Barack Obama said on Thursday;
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe shared the view that chemical weapons use in Syria was a violation of international law that must be addressed.

Obama and Abe met on the sidelines of a Group of 20 summit in St. Petersburg as Washington sought to rally international support for a U.S. military strike on Syrian targets.

"I ... look forward to an extensive conversation about the situation in Syria and ... our joint recognition that the use of chemical weapons in Syria is not only a tragedy but also a violation of international law that must be addressed," Obama told reporters.

Abe, who has refrained from speaking publicly about Japan's stance on Obama's push for military action against Damascus, said he looked forward to discussing with the U.S. president ways to improve the situation in Syria.
What it's really about
Why the obsession with Syria?
