- Manchuria was merely the resource base underwriting the plan, John. The
- plan itself was, and still is "Asia for Asians". Something we here in
- Australia have cause to think about seriously while the US withdraws to
- its Americas according to George Bush's "New World Order".
-
- Japan's present resource base has been rapidly expanding into the US
- as well, BTW, for the past thirty years and more. Something you might
- like to think about, without becoming paranoid of course.
