Okinawa Governor Denny Tamaki criticized US military human rights education as 'completely ineffective' following the arrest of a 20-year-old US Marine for the killing of a local woman. He demanded tougher discipline and a review of the US-Japan Status of Forces Agreement. This incident escalates long-standing local grievances over US bases and could pressure Tokyo-Washington security ties.
