The senior members of the Japanese Government would rather wait the problem out -- it isn't as though the women lodging these complaints are getting any younger. Afterwards, the entire ordeal gets whitewashed and swept under the rug. Saves its pride and a lot of money.

My problem is what if China decides to write an ignored wrong by tapping Japan upside the head with a nuclear warhead. It's a far-out scenario, but it's one to consider.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Which explains China's military buildup:

China's defense budget to rise 17.8% in 2007
Chinese military superpower?

They're fully aware that at this moment, we have the power to fcuk them up royally if need be. Building up their military defenses up to a point where the U.S. would pause and weigh the consequences would be in their best interests, especially if they decide to expand their global power.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
