Japanese Ambassador Hattori Hanzo
Hello, I'm your Japanese Ambassador Hattori Honzo. I used to live in Okinawa, but now I work through relations in Tokyo. As a result of this whole North Korea Missle and Nuclear testing, our people have started to lose our stance of pacifism. It was bad enough in July with the missle testing headed our way, but with the nuclear testing in October, NK has chosen to strain our courteous relations to another. Not only are we very open to strikes from missles and nuclear weapons, the massive army could trample right into our borders on any given day, if they so chose. We have retaliated by baning all NK imports from entering our waters. As a further initiative, we may also begin to develop our own nuclear weapons, strictly as a defensive tactic. Though this could be useful, we really don't want to further develop our weapons program. I feel it would be best if we cooperated with Chinese for support. With Chinese support, we could rely on their military faction and not have to develop our own nuclear program. We truly do not want to develop for state gain like NK has shown. Perhaps we need to have new relations to discuss a possible new KEDO II program, but unless Kim Jun-Il is taken out, any preventative measures and agreements betwen us and NK will prove futile. Kim Jun-Il is a poopy and and we should make him wear a diaper out in the streets in his own country and watch the public executions and make him do slave labor. Anyway, konichi wa and adios.
Comments
In response to your question, disarmament is the only answer to North Korea. The United States of American will not stand down until North Korea agrees to get rid of their nuclear weapons and intentions of using them. We will work will the UN as much as possible and would always prefer to end issues with diplomacy. I assure you every effort will be made to deal with North Korea peacefully. The United States will not tolerate North Korea to possess nuclear weapons, they must disarm. Kim Jong-Il stated, "The people of North Korea will stand up to the tyranny and imperialistic ambition of the United States with not only nuclear arms at the ready, but over 1.2 million fighting troops." This is a direct threat to the US and we will not accept these comments without feeling the need to disarm North Korea as soon as possible for the well being of the American people.

Ambassador Hanzo,
I wish to convey to you my feeling that you should support the resolution proposed by the North Korean leader. We need to rid ourselves of the scourge of Nuclear arms for good. We do not inherit the earth, we borrow it from our children. Why should they have to deal with nuclear fallout with fallout's that have a billion year half-life. I will urge other members to support the compromise, but your support is crucial.

Hello Ambassador Hattori Hanzo,
In the recent news of this compromise presented by North Korea, I think that we all would value your opinion on this issue. Being in the Ambassador to Japan, you are a key player in this situation between the world and North Korea. I have been wondering myself if this total disarmament would actually be possible. Can the world get rid itself of all the nuclear weapons and the power associated with them? I also am concerned of the chance that a nation could develop weapons behind the backs of the world and use them to surprise an enemy. Do you think the United States and Japan would be safe without nuclear weapons in the world?
