Interview with Nixon about Communism's (DS's NK) relationship with Japan from an ex-communist.

"As a Communist and an intellectual, he understood the world. The reason that he said this about Korea, he was not for Eisenhower. I was for Eisenhower. He actually was for Taft, and he was very sad when Taft came out against aid for Korea. This is when the Communists attacked – the North Koreans attacked South Korea.

He said, "What the Senator does not understand is that the war in Korea is not about Korea. It is about Japan, because if they get South Korea, then they will have a dagger pointed at Japan." And Japan, being very weak then immediately after World War II, would fall into their laps. That, to me, was geopolitical thinking at its very best."

Just wondering from where the dagger is pointed now.
