Protesters in Japan gathered outside the US Embassy in Tokyo. Using loudspeakers, they shouted slogans in front of the building as police forces tried to prevent them from approaching the embassy.

A new case of femicide involving a US Marine in Okinawa has renewed outrage among locals over the enormous US military presence in Japan.

Protesters shouted "US out of Okinawa!" and "Free, free Okinawa!" They also held banners in solidarity with countries facing US imperialist aggression, including Iran, Palestine and Cuba.

Okinawa hosts the largest concentration of US military forces in Japan. The country also hosts the largest overseas US military deployment in the world, with around 55,000 troops stationed there.

Okinawa also bears a disproportionate share of the crimes that continue to make headlines. According to Okinawa Prefecture, US military bases were linked to 6,163 criminal cases between 1972 and 2022.

Prime Minister Takaichi has vowed to strengthen Japan's military ties with the US as part of her unprecedented military buildup, marking the country's largest rearmament since World War II.

The Home Alone house kept its famous face but changed everything behind it

Stand across the street in Winnetka, Illinois, and the red brick mansion still looks like the movie. The dormers, the black shutters and the arched white entrance are all there, only without the Christmas lights that made it glow in 1990.

Walk through the front door and the magic of the film is gone. The floral wallpaper, the red carpeted staircase, the green velvet curtains and the glossy tiled kitchen counters have given way to crisp white paneling, dark hardwood floors and a crystal chandelier. The kitchen is now a bright open space with two large islands and doors to the garden.

Even the rooms you remember best have been transformed. The bedroom with the four-poster bed is now calm and neutral. The living room with its stockings and towering tree is now a symmetrical sitting room in white. The fireplaces survived, just without the holiday chaos around them.

Gone with the red carpet is the staircase where Kevin once took his legendary sled ride.

Renovations can erase wallpaper, but they can’t change how a whole generation pictures Christmas.
