Well, at least we have one other ally left from the Cold War.

The Japanese government is apparently set to announce that they’ll be with us, regardless of what the UN or old Europe do. I think that a nuclear and missile-armed DPRK has gotten their attention. I suspect that this is an “domo arigato” for redeploying the Kitty Hawk to the Sea of Japan.

Oh, and they want all of their citizens out of Iraq by Wednesday.
