East Asia
Liberals Against Terrorism alerts us to One China, Two Shores. Josh at OFK publishes an interview with North Korans, including their views on John Bolton. Meanwhile, the Nieman Foundation is not so keen on freedom

Maybe Nieman would be comfortable in Japan, which will rename Green Day “Showa Day,” in honor of Emperor Hirohito. Hirohito is best known around the world for his affection for gardening. Howie Day and the other Green Day are unavailable for comment.
