Okinawans want reduction of U.S. base

Even though US base is required for world power balance in the Far-east regions, but why in Okinawa the US base facilities are located among the Okinawan people towns? If the peace pact is nessary between the US and Japan, why the 75% of base are concentrate in Okinawa island only? Remember the size of the island is 0.6% of Japan.

We believe Americans are democratic and they must udnerstand the severe situation has to be changed radically.

We ask Japan main landers to share the much more duty of the world peace.
