Oh stop it!

Yeah so Japanese news was going off about the North Korea issue of course. They always go to South Korea and interview people on the streets and ask them how they feel whenever North Korea does anything that could be interpreted as trying to start a war. Actually they interpret an awful lot as this very intention... So from what I could gather with my dodgy Japanese that unfortunately doesn't yet include much of the vocab used to talk about nuclear weapons testing, they've exploded some kind of bomb of similar size to the one that wrecked havoc on Hiroshima 60 years ago. Everyone is freaking out left and right. I am not sure why. I mean, clearly nuclear weapons are bad, but everyone has em! Cept Australia of course. But we just assume I think that we are too far away and small to be bothered with. The Nth Koreans would have to be mental to go around dropping bombs on their neighbours, and despite all their bravado I don't reckon they are that mental. They do occasionally fire missiles over Japan and South Korea - just to keep everyone on their toes, but they are not gonna go around dropping nuclear weapons on people. That's America's job. Anyway, I love how they go over to South Korea and revel in how freaked out everyone is. Like Japan is SO much safer being practically swimming distance from that very penninsula! I've got my little alfoil hat - I'll be fine.
