Thousands of people rallied in Japan's southern island of Okinawa today to demand that the American military there be moved out of the area. The government of Prime Minister Yuko Hatoyama has said it may want the base, now located in densely populated area, moved off the island or even out of the country. However, the Japanese Foreign Minister said today that no decision on moving the US base from Okinawa is expected when President Obama visits Japan later this week.<br/>
