Japanese troops have been occupying the Philipino island of Mindanao since WWII. This illegal occupation never ended.

They're still checking to see if they're telling the truth.

Also, it seems like they were well aware that the war was over. Unlike that guy back in the 1970s who refused to surrender until they sent his old commander over to talk to him.

Still pretty strange though.

You have missed your true calling. You should be working for the National Tattler.

Oh piss off. Two men remaining in the Phillipines after the war ended does not constitute an occupation. By the same logic, the US is occupying Germany, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Kuwait, Iraq & Afghanistan ... oh wait, it is! I sense an undercurrent of ill-feeling towards the Japanese here.

I'm waiting for an offer from Weekly World News.

Really? I'm sensing that someone lacks a sense of whimsy. Humour even.

You'll need to pad it out a bit more. If you could work Batboy into it somehow - and perhaps Osama - I'm sure they'll consider you.

Nothing worse than a peson who can't find their sense of humor when they wake up in the morning. Look under you pillow, man. Or, in your pile of dirty socks!

Perhaps, the rebirth of Marlyn Monroe and Betty Gable.

I'm not surprised. Only the Japanese would be so crafty as to leave 2 men behind to wait until they are 80 years old and then commit a Coup d'etat. They must tried tried as terrorists and dealt with accordingly.

Please don't take this place to serious. Even the really serious threads are better thought of as humorous. And don't take any comments to personal/personel (whichever). After all it is just NationStates not real life.

Now there is some committment!
Say what you will, but the ideological indoctrination in the Japanese Army was spot on...
