I would like to leave a short comment.

about the North Korean refugee issue. Japanese right wingers seem to “make”

Person A : Koreans hollar about brotherhood and one blood, and then treat their northern borthers like crap. Korean: But Japan is worse!! Japan is the cause. Person A : ???

Don't get me started on <i>Last Samurai</i>.... Well, you were right both times: Stone’s movie about the JFK assassination starred Kevin Costner.

Costner's was "Dances with Wolves", which was as visually stunning as Tom Cruise's "The Last Samurai", and about as historically accurate. Sorry, should have said Oliver Stone.

Next, film classes won't be able to screen Kevin Costner's film on the JFK Assassination, another notable work of historical fiction, because it can be shown that some scenes are historically incorrect. Ditto for Las of the Mohicans, ad infinitum. I find it difficult to fault a book that is historical fiction\, particularly since it is not being used in a history class.
