(Yesterday around the Holy River Flowing to the Tokyo Bay)Wall Street, Islam, and Japan Never Gone with Wind
And the wind never looks back (in my humble observation).
SECTION I: Goldman Sachs and its Software
One example on how computer software is manipulated to make money on Wall Street:

Traders Profit With Computers Set at High Speed
...
The slower traders began issuing buy orders. But rather than being shown to all potential sellers at the same time, some of those orders were most likely routed to a collection of high-frequency traders for just 30 milliseconds — 0.03 seconds — in what are known as flash orders. While markets are supposed to ensure transparency by showing orders to everyone simultaneously, a loophole in regulations allows marketplaces like Nasdaq to show traders some orders ahead of everyone else in exchange for a fee.
In less than half a second, high-frequency traders gained a valuable insight: the hunger for Broadcom was growing. Their computers began buying up Broadcom [BRCM 27.73 -0.31 (-1.11%) ]shares and then reselling them to the slower investors at higher prices. The overall price of Broadcom began to rise.
Soon, thousands of orders began flooding the markets as high-frequency software went into high gear. Automatic programs began issuing and canceling tiny orders within milliseconds to determine how much the slower traders were willing to pay. The high-frequency computers quickly determined that some investors’ upper limit was $26.40. The price shot to $26.39, and high-frequency programs began offering to sell hundreds of thousands of shares...

However, this is a tiny and easy-to-understand fraction of manipulations of computer software designed to collect dollars as much as possible from an innocent market to specific accounts in Wall Street companies.
SECTION II: Worse than Guantanamo
The Bush Administration virtually allowed for harsh interrogations of terrorist suspects in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Guantanamo base, and some other places in the world.
American soldiers and officers treated savagely hundreds of Islamic terrorist suspects against international treaties.
But, while the U.S. and China were holding talks in Washington D.C., thousands of Muslims in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region were being arrested illegally and executed lawlessly by Chinese troops, according to some reliable sources.
The Obama Administration virtually allowed for this massacre of Muslims by financially shaking hands with China, which is worse than Bush Administration's treatment of Muslims.
The Obama Administration must request China to submit a detailed report on how many innocent Islamic Uygurs were killed by Chinese troops.
Otherwise, the tension between Islamic nations and the U.S./China/Isreal-anti-Islam coalition might be intensified.

SECTION III: Since 700
It is in the late 7th century that Islam was established.
It is also around the late 7th century that the concepts of the nation Japan and the Japanese Emperor were established.
In this respect I as a Japanese can measure the length of history of the religious civilization Islam in comparison with the length of history of the nation Japan.
Yet, it would be useful to present a difference in Japanese expression of the word "Emperor" between a Japanese emperor and an emperor of other empire.
Yet, there is a big difference between Japan and Islam.
To our surprise, it is very ambiguous why a monarch of Japan adopted the title emperor or "Ten-Noh" around 700.
No authentic documents and explanations on this subject are left in history. Even no oral reporting is found.
What's more, it is also very ambiguous why a Japanese emperor and noble people adopted Japan "Nihon/Nippon" as the name of their country around 700.
("Japan" is one of ancient Chinese sounds to the kanji-letter expression of Japan "Nippon.")
Unlike Islam, the nation Japan seems to be founded on very ambiguous authority.

Joh 7:29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
Joh 7:30 Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
Joh 7:31 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?
