I ain't goin' around to some half-ass web-site lookin' for something that maybe ain't interesting to being with. If you got sumfin' to say, post it here. No better place to do so.

If ya ain't likin' thayat, well, take a hike.

Come to think of it, you are rather a stuffy person. I've been reading and posting on here for years, and you know what? I can't think of one interesting thing you ever said!

Nothing. Can't think of a thing.

Yes, the comparison to Hirohito and Japan is not apt. Japan had embraced western technology and was very good at it well before the time Hirohito became Emperor which was several years after WWI. Japan was already a world force and it had one of the largest navies in the world by then. There is not much doubt, that unlike Gadhafi, he was loved and admired by the Japanese people or he would not have been allowed to remain titular head of the Nation. And to the sole extent that he was allowed to remain there the surrender of Japan was not unconditional.

Japan's oil problem was that it had none. It's military expansion was driven largely by that need.

Libya's problem, like that of other Near Eastern Countries, is that it has much more of it than it needs and other nations with much less of it want to control it. But these near eastern countries have been resistant to the acceptance of western culture, values, politics and technology which seems to be requirements of doing business with them.
