Great discussion and info here. Am happy for sports, but feel selfish about it in light of Fukushima.
Two points not raised yet.
1. Abe lied about "everything under control/Tokyo safe" yet again. This makes me furious, as it is the same selfish arrogance that led to Fukushima disaster in the first place. Something happens, then it's 予想外. Nothing has changed in this mindset and the behavior still gets rewarded.
2. Olympic peace anybody?
Call me idealistic, but the same government also is preparing militarization via changing the constitution. Maybe out of scope, but still.
Still would even camp outside Izu velodrome from a pure sports perspective.
