Japan Protests US Military in Okinawa; Obama Reasserts Japan’s Status as US Proxy

Eric Draitser of http://StopImperialism.org provides his commentary (June 9, 2016) about the protests against US military bases in Okinawa, and the politics of the US-Japan relationship. Draitser argues that the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the US dropping the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was an example of US hypocrisy as Obama refused to apologize for the shameful action. Draitser takes time explaining the role of Japan in Washington’s geopolitical and geostrategic agenda.
