What does everyone think of the Japanese warships in Anchorage?

I think give them more Direct News Coverage. The Japanese will become more at Peace. The Alaska State Government should welcome them back many times more. Japanese Military Culture in Alaska.

The Japanese are not an expansionist country at this time. A port visit with the cadets on board is nothing more than a training cruise. I have worked with the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force in the past and have found them to be as professional as any other military in the world. And their ships are always well maintained and actually have very fine lines (aesthetically pleasing to the eye, or pretty if you prefer).

Japanese are a fish nation that is one reason why The Japanese Military will enjoy many times over Alaska. The gulf waters of Alaska has bigger fish too. Do you think Japanese Military have any Navel Submarines? Might be expensive to commission "Build".

Some day, Japan will be like the UK was during WW2. An embattled island nation, an outpost of the Free World against evil continental tyrants. Now the only question is, who will play the role we played? Will it be us again or will we be the sick man of the Americas, forcing India to step up?

I'll let everyone ponder who the Axis countries will be.

I think you should drink some water, or maybe take a few deep breaths... that had nothing to do with the OP.

Japanese Military should occupy Alaska travel tours. This way they can bring to Alaska more and more Japanese tourists to Alaska. Travel tour industry in Alaska should make out Japanese Alaska brochures. Who knows Japan can make develop "JAPAN TOWN" in Anchorage, Alaska.

Anchorage, Alaska, is already a sister-city with Chitose, Japan.

See: Chitose

US naval vessels harbor in Japan, so I see no reason why Japanese naval vessels should not be allowed to harbor in the US. Alaska is certainly the closest US port to Japan, and the Japanese already own all the Alaskan fish processing plants. They are also one of our biggest importers of our salmon, so it seems very reasonable to me that they would visit Alaska.

Maybe we can talk them into sinking a few Canadian and Russian vessels fishing illegally in our waters.

West Side of Anchorage International airport in Alaska be good place for new Japan Town. Bring out about 25 square miles in all direction. "Japan Town" can have it's own public school system and build medical hospital. Japanese restaurants and summer's night life and shops spring up for cash flow. First Japan National Bank can have it's headquarters in "Japan Town". Cable Television & Radio news for Japan they can have my news network worldpeacenews.com.

Bob, west of the airport is Cook Inlet. And Fire Island belongs to Cook Inlet Regional Native Corporation.
