Japan, like any other state, ought to be entitled to having their own military, especially in this day and age. I am born in Singapore, one of the many countries that fell under Japanese control in WW2. Even Germany, who suffered a similar fate in WW2, actually has a more proper military than Japan. Then again, these issues are terribly unclear, but I think that Japan really does need a proper military now, to defend itself from the growing threat of China, who themselves appear to be following the path of its former (and current) enemy took up till 15 September 1945.
