My main focus is Japan, and in particular, US bases in Okinawa—because as John Lewis said, "When you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have to speak up." Read some of my old articles here: https://shingetsunewsagency.com/author/jon/

"(Saudi) Air raids frequently targeted (Yemeni) civilian gatherings such as weddings and busy market places where there was no military target nearby, often with extremely deadly consequences."

Groundhog Day in Okinawa. The government(s) will "take all measures it can to prevent" this from happening again until the next time it absolutely, tragically will happen again.
