- or our preznit will puke all over your prime minister!

The United States is demanding Japan send its troops to Iraq early to help rebuild the war-torn country, the Tokyo Shimbun reported Sunday. It said the U.S. is displeased with the uncertain outlook for sending the Self-Defense Forces (SDF) to Iraq as Japan plans to delay the dispatch until next year.

Japanese government sources cited by the daily quoted a U.S. Defense Department official as asking Japan, "Why don't you shape up?" The U.S. also wants SDF troops to operate on their own in Iraq without relying on U.S. troops. - - link
