[SunTzu]

Thought their constitution disallowed them going places outside of Japan?

[AJ]

There was an amendment that the UN allowed, IIRC, that allows them to send out their militia in a peacekeeping fashion.

[Theocorp_Paladin]

Yup. From what I remember they're just here to help on a humanitary standpoint. They won't take part in any military activity.

[CaRBomBnCowBoy]

Don't u think theyr'e just a little late... sure coulda used em over there a while ago.
:devil:

[Aya]

First it's peace keeping, next they'll have half of Asia and attacking a major US Naval base. :p

[Schwitzer]

There was an amendment that the UN allowed, IIRC, that allows them to send out their militia in a peacekeeping fashion.
Yeah? I didn't know that.

*crawls back into his box*

[ZeroDarkStar]

As long as I don't see Mario jumping on toadstools, and Link trying to kill "GannonBush", I'm cool with it.

[TheGreatBrain]

This could be good for the Iraqi economy. I mean, hentai sales are sure to skyrocket.

[Aya]

I'm waiting for the veritechs and RX-79s to show up. :)

[Funkwich]

Hey where are all their swords?

[BlackHawk]

Hey where are all their swords?

Militia not samurai's. They're samurai's are secretly invading, but aren't pointed out in the news so they can be extra sneaky.

[blkmage]

I would have thought the ninjas would be the ones to do any sort of secret invading and being sneaky.

[OboeGuru]

And where are the Gundams?

[AJ]

phooey @ gundams.
btw, everything != virgins.

[BlackHawk]

And where are the Gundams?

In the sky, hello!

[blkmage]

You mean with their space colonies?

[OboeGuru]

Yeah, unless they're in space, the only one that can ctay in the air for any significant length of time is WinG Gundam or Wing Zero.

[BlackHawk]

Yeah, unless they're in space, the only one that can ctay in the air for any significant length of time is WinG Gundam or Wing Zero.

Well then they're hopping across the earth hoping no one notices the ground shaking as they pass by.

[Carnage]

Oh no! What's next?! Canada!? O_o

No... I'll be dead in the cold, cold ground before they plant their flag on our moon. -_0

[OboeGuru]

Hrm, random capitalization... :p

Heavyarms Custom could take out Iraq in 10 minutes flat. :D

[Dark_Soul74]

The Japanese should have little robot Kirby's that dance. Perfect peace keeper...

[BlackHawk]

The Japanese should have little robot Kirby's that dance. Perfect peace keeper...

Except for the handfull of gun-totin' Iraqies that find the dancing kirbies annoying.

[OboeGuru]

Which is when Samus Aran steps in...

[BlackHawk]

Which is when Samus Aran steps in...

I'll probably get flamzorized for this (that's why I got the fire extinguisher out :p), but who exactly is Samus Aran?

[Valjean]

Which is when Samus Aran steps in...
Along with Megaman X and Zero...

[OboeGuru]

I'll probably get flamzorized for this (that's why I got the fire extinguisher out :p), but who exactly is Samus Aran?
She's the main character of Metroid. Yes, she. :D

[BlackHawk]

She's the main character of Metroid. Yes, she. :D

Oh right, that person. Samus, yea I know her from Mario SmashBro. Melee :D.

Btw, I think we totally just jacked this thread :/

[OboeGuru]

I don't think there's any way it couldn't have been, IMHO. :p

I like the little camera gadget the guy has in the 4th pic. The Japanese are the bestest people.

[Edgewize]

I'll bet that the japanese tanks can transform into giant robots. It's all over now.

[Crion]

I was doomed, once.

[Graeme]

Enlighten us Crion!!! What happened!?

[BlackHawk]

Enlighten us Crion!!! What happened!?

Well you see, since he's an icebox, it was a hot summer day, and he had no ice. So he got warm, and icky.

[/crappy jokes]

[MacG]

What's more funny about this, they are more like a tool. They are told to blend in with the native.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/3461643.stm

[Theocorp_Paladin]

OMG, ROFL!

Sure it's really easy to blend with the native while you are asian and wearing jungle camouflage in the desert...

More seriously I can understand it more or less, trying to respect Iraq's customs by wearing moustaches and all... but they do that thinking it will protect their troops while actually the terrorists changed their modus operandi and are now aiming their efforts at the Iraqi who are helping the coallition... Wouldn't that make the Japanese soldiers primary targets? (And seriously, do they really think they can avoid attacks on their troops by growing beards and not consuming alcohol and pork? They're still foreigners and still wearing military uniforms right?)

[Eros]

Japan doesn't have an army. They might have a coast guard, but not an army.

[Carnage]

Are you implying they've all been imported by Bush to take the majority of enemy fire AND because they won't be smelled by the enemy because they're downwind?! Is that what you're implying!? O_O

[Scauthra]

Koigokoro Nippon ;_;

[crybaby1117]

And we're all doomed, why? heh. Come on people! They are Japanese! IM taller than them and I only stand 4 feet 11 inches from the ground. heh. The average American could sit on them without having to stand all the way up. heh. :p

:devil: Don't you raise that lip at me!

[Scauthra]

Avergae height of a Japanese is 5'5. Average height of an American is 5'10

WHAT A BIG DIFFRENCE OMG -_-;;

[crybaby1117]

Hey! Look at you! Wow! So nice to see you! It's been a while hasn't it?! But, last time I remembered talking to you, you could actually take a joke! heh. Maybe it's just me though. :rolleyes:

[Scauthra]

Don't know me well enough then.

People who know me, know Japan = not a joke to me.

[crybaby1117]

Oh loosen your panties grandma. This is a forum. Therefore there are going to be alot of jokes that you don't like. Cry me a river, Build me a bridge, and Get over it.

[Scauthra]

Oh I know that fuckwit, so that's why I am voicing my opinion on the forums! Oh no my opinion!

[OboeGuru]

I hear one of the American tanks is Blitzwing. Fear the Decepticons!

[Theocorp_Paladin]

Japan doesn't have an army. They might have a coast guard, but not an army.
Hmm, coastal guards... I find it funny :)

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/japan/ship.htm

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/japan/jmsdf-orbat.htm

Funnily, their coastal guards own 114 warships, including 17 submarines and 46 destroyers. Not bad for coastal guards should I say... I really want to see the Japanese "Baywatch"! :cool:

[GrassDragon]

Not bad for coastal guards should I say...

Not bad indeed.

[Scauthra]

Japan has the following branches of military:
Ground Self-Defense Force (Army), Maritime Self-Defense Force (Navy), Air Self-Defense Force (Air Force), Coast Guard.

Enough said.

[Theocorp_Paladin]

Scauthra, I feel you slightly angry -_-
I was answering to koomann with sarcasm, you do realize that I wasn't making fun of Japan. Here we assume that they have the second biggest warfleet in the world, just behind the U.S. (even if I personally don't know if it's true)

OTOH, I still find the way they were sent to Iraq ridiculous. This whole "looks like a native despite wearing your uniform, you'll be safe" concept is a joke, especially when you don't even spend the time to shift the camo on your vehicles and men from jungle to desert (they probably assumed that their mission would be limited to cities and as such camo was unimportant, I feel something wrong with that).

[Scauthra]

Rather your post was made in sarcasm or anger or lack of knowledge, I provided true information to spark your knowledge that Japan does not just have a coast gaurd or a single military foundation.

Yeah I am gonna get angry with people making fun of Japan, just like other people will get mad at me if I dislike something they like. Its human nature, and fair. You can not stop it.

[Theocorp_Paladin]

Rather your post was made in sarcasm or anger or lack of knowledge, I provided true information to spark your knowledge that Japan does not just have a coast gaurd or a single military foundation.
Yes, it was sarcasm, sarcasm about the remark on Japanese having only coast guards.
So why do you think I posted two links to a site that actually shows the Japanese military structure?

Oh nm, I'm going to bed so that's all I'll add today. Cya.

[Scauthra]

Must of missed it. Doesint matter, I took the direct approach and saying the branches for the lazy or people who are to idiotic and missed the links like I did.

[Funkwich]

d00d if japan were a real place it wouldnt be in so many cartoons. Dont get so mad, i dont get pissy every time someone mentions atlantis in bad way

[BlackHawk]

Man, this thread has been jacked so many times....First it went to like samurai's then to the gundam wing things, now to japan's army or something.

[Scauthra]

Funkwich apparently has no intellegence with such a mindless post. If that was your attention to act retarded. 2 points.

Fucktard.

[MacG]

At least Chinese people are taller, =) I'm 5'8. Look at yao Ming!!!!!

[Scauthra]

And what is your point?

[crybaby1117]

I stand at a VERY tall 4'11". hehe. Everyone is taller than me. :P Even the Japanese. :D

[Scauthra]

Height only matters for basketball players. Enough said.

[Fenguin]

Hey, stop being racist foos. Japanese people might be shorter than you, but most of the time, they sure as hell work a lot harder than you :D
Of course, 2nd-generation Japanese [and higher] in America may have assimilated and become your equals.

[Mordecai2k]

The japanese make the videogames we play. :)

[Scauthra]

That is not all my friend.

They provide me with something to look forward to in life.

[Mordecai2k]

The japanese make us happy everyday. :)

[Scauthra]

Me in more ways then one.

[Mordecai2k]

The japanese entertainus and poo through their anus

[Scauthra]

Aww come on, don't bring that in here : (

[OboeGuru]

What, is "Anus" the new "Virgin" or something? ;) Nothing can beat virgins. Virgins > Anii (anuses?)

[Scauthra]

All a point of view I supose?

[Mordecai2k]

Yeah. <33 xoxo
