Open borders led to the samurai's fall but not for the reason you are implying.

When the west came a knocking, it highlighted the weakness and complacency of the samurai ruling class. Even without jews, the elites fell into the same trap as western kings and had accumulated massive debt (to the merchant class) while the people increasingly suffered under high taxes and a caste system.

The merchants deposed the samurai because it was a convenient time to do so and public sentiment was on their side. The samurai where already on their way out, open borders just speed up the process.

disagree, sounds shillish like relish.

samurai, and japan, were successful merchants in their own right. their history has been re-written and falsified too. after the kings fell, english deliberately destroyed japan's most cultural locations and replaced them like with western architecture, like a visit to epcot center.

visiting actual historical sites in japan reveal they had a few jews among them prior to any mainstream contact with the west. lots of photos with japanese looking jews, ainca, aryans, etc.

The samurai weren't kings. They did not and never did hold the title of emperor.

The fall of the samurai allowed the Japanese to restore their ruling familiy to power. They dispensed with feudalism and created a constitutional monarchy that gave the emperor the actual right to rule again.

no one said anything about Kings. ruling class in japan sold their people out for english architecture and a world bank of jews—yea, a monarchy is progress. you're using terms taught to you by other people, who told you about history. you have no idea why the jewmerican's went there, other than to continue creating wars for their globalization.

believe it or not, but don't put words into my meanings or try to insinuate that I meant something different.
