#1 "Look into my eyes, and believe what I tell you" Ha ! I bet that made ol'Hu a lot more comforted. Wonder if he had any relatives in Nanking in 1933-34 ?

#4 In the case of Japan and weapondry, rely on the old adage, "Watch the hands, not the mouth". If the Japanese decide that they want a class of weapon, be it ship, plane, missile, or otherwise, they will develop it under some politically correct title that permits them to possess it.
The Japanese Navy is already planning on building a class of helicopter carrier that is classed as an "anti-submarine warfare destroyer, helicopter".
The size of the vessel will permit it to utilize Harrier type jets as well as the helos. Japan is not allowed carriers since they are Offensive Weapons, but ASW destroyers are Defensive Weapons.
