"We want to see a crime like this prosecuted here in the same way that we would feel horrified and want to provide a sense of justice to a victim's family back in the U.S.," Obama said. "I think the Japanese people should know we are deeply moved and working with he Japanese government to prosecute not only this crime but prevent these kinds of crimes from happening again."
これじゃあ、問題の本質がわからず、沖縄の人の怒りと悲しみが理解できんだろう。

Using surprisingly strong language, the Japanese prime minister said he felt “profound resentment” at the “self-centered and absolutely despicable crime.”

Abe said, however, that he had no plans to make a reciprocal visit to Pearl Harbor, the target of a surprise Japanese attack in December 1941 that killed more than 2,400 US servicemen and prompted America’s entry into the European and Pacific theatres of the second world war.
パールハーバ訪問するか、どうかは未定だろう。
そして、それが、ここで、なんの関係があるんだ？
オバマは歴史に謙虚だか安倍はいかがなものか、という含意だろう？ーーオバマは歴史にも平和にも全然謙虚ではないが、それはいいとして、沖縄の人々の問題はどうなるんだよ！
海外の報道を含めて、茶番だ。
The speeches by Abe and Obama and the reports by foreign correspondents are just farce
To understand the anger and suffering of Okinawa people we need to know how often women in Okinawa have been raped by U.S. military personels since U.S. occupied Okinawa
and how U.S. personels have left Japan unpunished because of
U.S.–Japan Status of Forces Agreement
It does not matter if Kenneth Franklin Shinzato will be investigated under Japanese law this time. Next time an American rapist can leave Japan unpunished.
That's why Okinawa people are calling on revising Status of Forces Agreement
Moreover, under pressure from U.S. government Japanese government is even reluctant to prosecute American servicemen; the rate of prosecution against American personals is much lower than the one against Japanese
That's why Okinawa people are disappointed both at Japanese government and U.S. government.
No foreign journalists report the voices of Okinawa people.
Either they are not reading Japanese news media or they censor themselves.
We can't expect foreign correspondents to write an decent article on Japan.
