Such general statements about a significant group of people such as the Japanese are pretty much never welcome. If this were China, he'd be jailed or worse. That'd probably be a deserving punishment for him to betray his country.

You know, I also find it interesting how he keeps getting re-elected after having made statements of such magnitude in the past. Maybe it's because of cultural differences that we here in the Western world (and pretty much everywhere else) would be pissed while many Japanese people would just accept them as truth.
