You'd need 240k united Miles vs about 160k AMEX points

Let me see if I get this: sign up for ANA's miles program, then use points on an AMEX card to get flights for fewer miles through ANA's system, even if it may cost more due to charges?

If I got that right, then which card would I use to grab points on ANA?
