No, they're just as bad as any other.  Why should we replace our arsenals with fusion weapons?

Due to political reasons, the age of high ranking people in the Empire will always remain unknown to the public.  "The New Japanese Empire will start by corrupting the Union of Chinese Socialist States, we will regain our rightfull rule of China, we will also look upon our loyal allies to help us regain our old territory, although we have much to regain, I will try to do so without spending human lives unlike my father who believed everything is connected to war, although those are words of wisdom.  If there was no war, the world would be corrupt.  All these things will be accomplished after The New Japanese Empire is ready.  There is much to do while there is so little time but I believe that all of Japan can accomplish these things using the power of our hearts and with our honor.  First we must slow down our military and focus on our economy, with our economy so weak, how are we supposed to fight?
