Thank you so much. I appreciate the fact that you acknowledge maybe deficiencies, but also areas where performance was good.

It is literally impossible.

I ask for punitive measures up to and including sanctions under the Goldman Act.

It will only be constant and intense foreign pressure that will bring about the required changes in family law.

Sanctions represent a real expenditure of political capital on behalf of the United States.

Real changes to human rights issues in Japan are rarely if ever accomplished internally.

the Goldman Act was passed by Congress was to give you additional tools beyond that soft diplomacy

We could solve corporate espionage tomorrow. We could solve kidnapped children tomorrow, in a month--one Executive order.

As long as they are sending billions of dollars in here, making a living on our economy, and we are never doing--we are never using that leverage I don't see this changing.

The frustration becomes is--and the reason for the Goldman Act originally was the type of soft diplomacy that you have described.

But the sad reality is that our children are simply not important enough for the American Government.

I don't like to employ sanctions. But there is a number of other tools that the Goldman Act allows the State Department to employ that they haven't done.
