"And he is black, too."
that has been clear from pretty much the beginning on nearly every outlet covering the story
race would be more important here if the incident garnering all the publicity was some violent or sex crime. the US soldiers who do that seem to be mostly black or non-white, as in the US. this has been a problem and caused a lot of resentment on okinawa where they don't like the troops still being there decades after the war anyway. japanese people seem to resent their presence more than for example germans.
Well,you know,"negro nightly news" had a story on him.Holt talked to a White man whose son was stuck in N.K. and basically died there.Holt asked him,if the priority level is different for the U.S.to seek getting(the black)out,if he voluntarily ran in,the White guy said,"no."
Just what Holt wanted him to say.Holt's only interested in this because the soldier IS black.That's it.

RIPLEY'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT DEPT:100 YEAR OLD HENRY KISSINGER FLIES TO BEIJING FOR CHINESE FOOD(WITH PRESIDENT XI)
(SCMP)Henry Kissinger treated to lavish lunch as China gives US diplomat blessings of longevity
Chinese President Xi Jinping spoke fondly of the 100-year-old former US secretary of state at a lavish lunch

When an “old friend” of China comes to visit, no effort is too much to make the diplomatic heavyweight feel welcome.
That was the case for former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger on Thursday, when the Chinese government treated him to an elaborate lunch – one that was packed with cultural significance as President Xi Jinping spoke fondly of his “old friend” who celebrated his 100th birthday in May.
The meeting took place at the No 5 Villa of the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, the same place where Kissinger met Chinese leadership in his first China visit back in 1971.
The table was decorated with a sprawling miniature landscape, featuring bright flowers surrounding a running stream and bridge, which Chinese state broadcaster CCTV said represented the “bridge between China and the United States”.
In a video posted by CCTV which showed snippets from the lunch, the broadcaster also said the lush mountains and glistening waters in the landscape symbolised the long-lasting friendship between the two countries. Also part of the decorations were ornaments of pine trees and cranes, typically symbols of good health and longevity.
At the head of the table was a huge longevity peach, accompanied by 99 others. In Chinese culture, pastries or cakes made of peaches are usually served during birthday celebrations of elderly people to represent immortality and longevity.
The menu featured several dishes that Kissinger and former President Richard Nixon enjoyed in their 1972 visit,including Peking duck and West Lake fish in vinegar gravy.
GRA: The difference between Henry Kissinger and the rest of us,when Kissinger wants authentic Chinese food he flies to China and the president prepares it for him.Question:Is it a good thing that someone from the USA is revered that much by the Chinese government?
