五眼裡只有英國沒有具體太平洋根據地，就其他四國來說，沒有拒絕日本入當虎翼的理由。至於北京將之視為五眼擴張之舉這點不滿就算了吧，當大家不知道紐澳英加四國軍費加起來還不到中國軍費的四成嗎? 就算加入日本的算也才中國軍費的六成而已，唯一力壓中國的美國其軍費增幅還不夠通膨吃的呢。 
[ It should be expected that any new formal addition would realistically come step-by-step and not via any swift elevation to membership. If Japan is greenlighted in any form, a more likely outcome will be that it would join in an official “5+1” format. This would allow for it to ease gradually into deeper cooperation. ]

這艘移動軍港與機場的服役，代表著美國海軍對再一次太平洋海戰的準備。
“「米格爾基思號」採用柴電力混合動力裝置，最高航速可達15節，最大航程為9500海里（約合17594公里）。該艦配備有一個約4830平方公尺的飛行甲板，還有燃料儲存裝置、維修車間、武器庫和最多能容納250人的宿舍。該艦還能夠執行多種任務，包括空中水雷對抗、反海盜、海上安全行動、人道主義援助和救災、危機因應等。”
喔喔! 到沖繩啦!~
"日本放送協會（NHK）報導，米格爾基思號今年5月在美國西部加州開始服役，昨天上午泊靠沖繩縣宇流麻市的美國海軍白灘基地。
根據民間的船隻追蹤網站MarineTraffic.com的資料顯示，米格爾基思號9月20日從夏威夷出港，本月4日抵達沖繩。
今年5月在美國加州舉行米格爾基思號服役典禮時，美軍南方司令部司令、海軍上將法勒（Craig Faller）說，米格爾基思號或許將派往南海或荷莫茲海峽（Strait of Hormuz）。"
日本人也是很清楚中國一旦開戰就必然首攻日本:
"他解釋：「日本的安全…是建立於與美國的團隊合作之上。」他還說，如果美國政府提出要求，「那麼日本首相作為盟友只能側重於美國」、「我認為，無論誰成為首相，（他們）都將大致朝著這個方向，作出這項決定」。
他還指出，在日本的軍事基地將是明顯的潛在目標。「如果中國認為，必須切斷根源，阻止增援部隊進入台灣，那麼攻擊目標肯定是在日本境內。如果發生這種情況，他們應先重擊哪裡以獲得制空權？如果你是軍事專家，我想答案已很清楚。」"
中國努力試探日本底線:
"統合幕僚監部分析指出，由於這些船隻航行的並非最短路徑，因此分析目的應該是要試探日本海上自衛隊的反應。
報導稱，這5艘船艦4月30日穿越對馬海峽朝東北方航行，在5月5日、6日通過宗谷海峽朝東前進，於11至13日到達伊豆群島的須美壽島和鳥島之間，朝西方航行，繞行日本列島一週。"
解放軍都列出六個攻擊美軍日本基地的方案了，看來中國一挑二是勢在必行啊。
"Yoshihara makes the following key points in his report.
First, the China side assumes that an attack on Taiwan would lead to all-out war with the US. At the same time, Chinese war planners believe the overwhelmingly superior US military has the capacity to launch large-scale strategic attacks on China's major "megalopolises." Those are Beijing/Tianjin, Shanghai/ Nanjing and Guangzhou/Shenzhen. Such an attack could destroy the base of China's comprehensive military strength.
Second, the Chinese military has developed plans to launch surprise and preemptive strikes on forward-deployed bases for US forces within Japan. They would do this in order to prevent or reduce any strategic attack by American forces.
Those sites also include US military bases at Yokosuka and in Okinawa. In fact, China has declared that it has six different modes of attacks and preemptive attacks at its command. They include "sneak attacks," "rapid raids" and "sabotage raids."
Next, for attacks on United States' bases in Japan, the PLA would rely primarily on certain weapons systems. These are the DF21C medium-range ballistic missile system (1,500 km range), CJ10 ground-launched cruise missiles (same range) and DF26 intermediate-range ballistic missiles (4,000 km range)."
