Japan's claming...

[best2002]

Japan's logic for claiming Dokdo as their own contradicts the reasons behind the territorial dispute of Senkaku islands and the Kuril islands. And this hypocrisy of Japan is subject to world criticism.
Japan claims Senkaku is Japanese land because it has effective control, but is maintaining that Dokdo is their land despite the fact that Korea has effective control. Their logic are inconsistent.
MOreocer, when the Russian president visited the Kuril islands, Japan remained more or less silent, but when the Korean president visited Dokdo, they made a huge fuss out of the issue suing Korea to the international Courth of Justice.
Japan's illogical behavior and attitude will only spur up anti-Japanese sentiment amongst neighboring countries. If Japan maintains its overshelming ambition for territory disputes, it will always be a subject of criticism.

1. Hardly unique

The stuff we used to own is ours because we used to own it... but the stuff you used to own is ours because we own it now and you don't.

That very likely describes better than half of the countries in the world.
