60k US troops in Japan, but many people have no confidence in them sticking around to fight if China attacked

That should make people think twice about NATO.
US troops in Japan are not under NATO command, because it is not a NATO deployment.

US foreign policy (and military posture) in the far East is a totally separate consideration to US involvement in NATO.
 
The initial fear for a conflict was (and still is in theory) that if Russia invades, then the West could snatch at least a little bit of Western Ukraine from being invaded, entering from Polish border... but even that is not happening.

Russia is gonna annex every inch of Ukraine. ?
 
This still rings true today.
“machinery of propaganda may pack their minds with falsehood and deny them truth for many generations of time. But the soul of man thus held in trance, or frozen in a long night, can be awakened by a spark coming from God knows where, and in a moment the whole structure of lies and oppression is on trial for its life.”
Sadly the structure of lies was not dismantled.

They have a legal obligation to fight for japan in the event of an attack
