The idea is being pushed by Japan’s Social Democratic Party, a minority member of the three-party coalition that took power there last September. Tinian is just 80 miles north of Guam. The 28-square mile island has about 3,500 residents.
Meanwhile, more than 15,000 residents of Tokunoshima, an island some 125 miles north of Okinawa, turned out for a rally Sunday opposing any move to transfer the Marine air units there.
