Lessons in Shanghai in 1930’s

Lessons in Shanghai in 1930’s

(Les leçons apprises à Shanghai dans les années 1930)



Since 2007, we have had new leaders coming up from potent countries to the global stage one after another.

Japan, France, the U.K., Russia, and Australia have new leaders; even in the U.S. the possible next Presidents or Presidential contenders have drawn more attentions than the incumbent President.

Indeed, this year’s G8 summit to be held in Japan from July 7 will surely make US President Mr. George W. Bush outstanding, since he has kept his position since the 9/11 Terror in 2001.

In addition, South Korea has now new President, Mr. Lee Myung-bak who unlike his anti-Japanese predecessor looks sound and responsible, since he honestly expresses the importance of friendly relationships between Japan and South Korea.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/26/world/asia/26korea.html?ex=1361682000&en=518f941250ca7780&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss

Though some Americans might believe that most of Korean people hate Japanese due to Imperial Japan’s occupation of the Korean Peninsula before WWII, the fact and truth is that most of Koreans like Japan and Japanese at heart. But, due to Japan’s occupation of the Korean Peninsula before WWII, they have to condemn Japan sometimes at least on a superficial level for their nationalism; otherwise their nationalism is suspected by others.

It is said that the poorer a Korean is, the more he or she likes Japan and Japanese.

But it is not the new Korean President that took my attention on a TV program showing the inauguration ceremony of President Mr. Lee.

It is Japan’s Former Prime Mister Mr. Yasuhiro Nakasone who led Japan from 1982 to 1987.

While most of former Prime Ministers of Japan are gone, he still acts as a politician, attending this 2008 Korean President’s inauguration ceremony held in cold Seoul.

Mr. Yasuhiro Nakasone was no more Japan’s Prime Minister when the father of the incumbent US President, namely Mr. George H. W. Bush came into the White House as the 41st US President in 1989.

So, observing Mr. Yasuhiro Nakasone in Seoul in 2008 is something moving, though he has now no official post in the Japanese Parliament and the Japanese Administration despite his presence still occasionally felt among the incumbent ruling party of Japan.

(Even one relatively young lawmaker of the opposition party of Japan wrote in his blog about his attendance to the ceremony in Seoul accompanying Mr. Nakasone with delight.)

So, I checked the book written on the network of personal connections behind the scene of the Japanese political world since the era of the Sino-Japanese War or the Manchurian Incident in 1930’s.

http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC%E3%81%AE%E5%9C%B0%E4%B8%8B%E4%BA%BA%E8%84%88%E2%80%95%E6%88%A6%E5%BE%8C%E3%82%92%E3%81%A4%E3%81%8F%E3%81%A3%E3%81%9F%E9%99%B0%E3%81%AE%E7%94%B7%E3%81%9F%E3%81%A1-%E7%A5%A5%E4%BC%9D%E7%A4%BE%E6%96%87%E5%BA%AB-%E3%81%84-15-1-%E5%B2%A9%E5%B7%9D/dp/4396333684

The incumbent Prime Minister of Japan, Mr. Yasuo Fukuda, is a son of the former Prime Minister Takeo Fukuda who was the successor of Nobusuke Kishi (Prime Minister between 1957 and 1960), a grandfather of the former Prime Minister Mr. Shinzo Abe (Prime Minister between 2006 and 2007).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobusuke_Kishi

The most interesting part of the above book is that it reveals how influential figures who acted after WWII on the stage or behind the scene of Japanese political circles had established their fundamental relationships in Shanghai and Manchuria, currently the northeast territory of China, in 1930’s.

The human network covered not only politicians but also businessmen, journalists, and various types of fixers.

It also reveals that how those Japanese were influenced by Chinese in Shanghai.

When those ambitious Japanese came to Shanghai they found how naive they were, though they had been regarded as shrewd and hotshot successful politicians, bureaucrats, businessmen, journalists, and various kinds of fixers in Japan.

It is said that those Japanese learnt every dirty trick they had not dreamed of in Japan in addition to how to use money, power, and conspiracies, which traditional samurai code of conduct had never permitted, from Chinese counterparts working covertly and overtly in Shanghai in 1930’s.

Chinese politicians, businessmen, fixers, and activists living in the great social turmoil and upheaval since the collapse of the Qing Dynasty were in a different class or poles apart from those Japanese counterparts who accordingly decided to learn every dirty trick and method of conspiracy from those Chinese.

The Empire of Japan had then far advanced and modern industry, society, and military than Chine that promised Japan’s final military victory in 1930’s; but the depth of evil in the Chinese society was beyond imagination of those Japanese elites.

The point of issue is that those Japanese who had experienced Shanghai life in 1930's survived WWII and formed the influential human network as part of mainstream or underground one in the Japanese society.

They also combined with those who also built their careers in Manchuria or Manchukuo, like former Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi, and in official circles of the Japanese Government as elite bureaucrats since WWII, like former Prime Minister Takeo Fukuda and Mr. Yasuhiro Nakasone.

So, the ugly vice some Japanese had learnt in Shanghai in 1930’s survived and influenced the politics in Japan after WWII, though fully democratized Japan after WWII became an ally of the U.S. especially against communists in the Soviet Union and China, which made the human relationships in the political and business communities more complicated.

But, in 1970’s, along with the coming of era of global expansion of the Japanese economy, a new group of people got political hegemony in Japan relying on huge money produced through the economic growth, the leader of whom was former Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka.

The Japanese people also supported this new political faction, feeling a sense of relief from a kind of old regime governed by old elites, though it was often criticized as money-driven politics as exemplified in the Lockheed scandal in early 1970’s which deprived Kakuei Tanak of honor and respect, though he and his successor maintained hegemony in the political world.

But, this hegemony virtually ended when Mr. Yoshiro Mori became Prime Minister of Japan in 2000 and Mr. Jyunichiro Koizumi launched a fierce political fight, since 2001, against the remnant of the group Kakuei Tanaka had founded 30 years ago.

Finally, the group Nobusuke Kishi had founded 50 years ago with a help from those coming back from Shanghai after WWII established and consolidated its power base again, a result of which is the incumbent Prime Minister Mr. Yasuo Fukuda.
* * *

It is hard to tell how much evil and vice of Shanghai in 1930’s is alive and working in the present Japanese Government and its Parliament called the Diet.

But it is surely a fact to take note of: In 1930’s, many ambitious Japanese went to Shanghai, China, to take an evil course, growing up from country players to continental-class players in politics and business.

In 1990’s, ambitious Japanese went to London and New York, to take an evil course, growing up from country players to world-class players in the money market.

And, even in 1930’s, some Japanese elites in various fields were moving from Tokyo to New York, and then New York to Shanghai to build their careers, good or bad.

Today, as the recent Davos conference suggested, many players of various nationalities in the global money market are building their career through travelling between London, New York, and Shanghai.

Even Japanese with such respectable culture and history were contaminated by such evil in Shanghai in 1930’s.

Other people of various countries today could be also highly and negatively influenced by such vice in London, New York, and Shanghai. And, they will surely influence politics and business in their home countries.

That is why you have to just ponder on the order of Jesus Christ: Do not access foreigners’ way.




(There are some Japanese critics, such as Ms. Yoshiko Sakurai, and politicians, such as Ms. Yuriko Koike, who probably by instinct are on the alert for Chinese way of diplomacy, politics, business, and human relationships.

One of big worries of such Japanese people about the next US President lies in this concern and context.

My concern is however that there might be some affinity between Chinese and people who belong to the Latin cultures, say, such as French or Italians rather than Anglo-Saxons, since some founders of Chinese Communist Party experienced studying in Paris also in 1930's, and the Mafia might even today become an easy partner of a secret agency of the Chinese Communist Party.

Indeed, Shanghai in 1930’s was also full of Europeans and Americans, maybe, like you, in addition to Japanese, maybe, like you.)

Yearly Request to the US Government (Draft)

(beyond time and space though yet in Tokyo in 2008 for you)


Yearly Request to the US Government (Draft)

(Annuel demande à l'administration américaine)



The following is part of a draft of our yearly requests to the US Government:

1) Make the infant mortality rate equal between European American infants and non-European American infants, which is currently 6.6 and 17.0 per 1,000 infants, respectively.

2) Educate US children so as to respect the foreign countries from which their ancestors immigrated to the U.S., years ago, decades ago, or centuries ago.

3) Establish a new Department, such as the Department of the Treasury, in the Federal Government dedicated to promoting welfare of African Americans and declare the War on Enemies of African Americans (if not like the way Abraham Lincoln did in 1861).

4) Disseminate democracy in the Middle East, China, and North Korea in a peaceful manner using peaceful means.

5) Cooperate with the Mexican Government to eradicate violence and crimes in boarder areas between the two countries; for this purpose, transfer some army divisions from Iraq to Mexico subject to necessary international treaties to be concluded.

We hope that the US Government will fulfill the above requests this year on behalf of every believer of God, Allah, and Yahweh or El.

And, though I think it is very difficult for Christian Americans and Israelite Americans, I hope that they will forgive their enemies, including AlQaeda and other Arab terrorists, since Jesus Christ ordered mankind to forgive enemies and love enemies, while the US military have had to arrest and torture 98 innocent Muslims before they took on two insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan who had no intention and means to travel to the U.S. and carry out systematic and suicidal terror.

Indeed, how many Americans have a member of their family or a friend who was actually killed by AlQaeda or Arab terrorists before and after Sept. 11, 2001?

Definitely there must be more Americans whose family member or friend was killed by other American who did not believe in God.

6) Do not laugh at the Gospel, Jesus Christ, Moses, Abraham, and God with so many foreclosed houses of poor Americans and fabulous churches for rich Americans widely displayed, under the gaze of God, on the land of the New Continent the God intended to give mankind for a Religious Revolution.

(Remember the calculation: two million [poor men] multiplied by $200,000 [default], namely a total $400 billion loss which must have been used as leverage for $4000 billion investment and speculation globally.)

I will present the second version of the Draft later or discuss the last issue soon.



(Indeed, gentlemen, March has come to test you who have sovereign right each in democracy, since you are not allowed to live and die rich leaving the world full of crimes, tragedies, conspiracies, corruption, moral leprosy, Mafia-like madness, terrorist-like heinousness, and despise to everybody including the dead rich.)



“Whoever wants to boast must boast of what the God has done.”

(Wer will rühmen darf stolz von dem, was Gott getan hat.)





　

"The God indeed exists, Sir"

"The God indeed exists, Sir"

("Le Dieu existe en effet, monsieur.")




I stepped into a train.

There were a western father and an infant girl sitting on the seat. As the opposite side seat was almost occupied, I sat on their side over some space.

The western infant girl, however, spoke something as if she had been in bad mood missing her mother, since she spoke Japanese to herself and her father tried to soothe her with Japanese and English.

Then I faced a strange man with a big suit bag, who didn’t look like somebody that earned money the way ordinary citizens did though he put on reasonable clothes to look like an innocent citizen.

The man looked like being impressed by a western infant girl speaking Japanese to herself and her western father who spoke ambiguous Japanese and honest English.

After having passed a few stations, there came a relatively young man well tanned who looked like having spent a night or two on the street as a temporary homeless though his hair was cut short and nice and he put on reasonable clothes to look like an innocent citizen.

He walked in front of me and took a seat between middle aged women sitting in a row facing the western partial family and me.

Now all the space on the seats of both the sides of the train car was occupied.

Then the well-tanned, temporary homeless man started speaking in a large voice, though not shouting, “I have found that the God indeed exists, sir. I have found that the God truly exists, sir. No, no! He might not exist.”

Everybody in the train car, except the western father, pretended as if having heard nothing, while the relatively young temporary homeless was speaking to somebody standing before him that was however unseen to everybody, probably.

He continued to speak, “You would become a mummy while you are on the train.” Then he giggled at his own joke, just looking at me sitting silently on the opposite row.

Then, the well-tanned, temporary homeless man spoke to the western father over somebody unseen, “I have found that the God indeed exists, sir. I have found that the God truly exists, sir. No, no! He might not exist.”

The western infant girl grumbled in Japanese.

The strange man with a big suit bag facing me over the aisle silently stood up and walked to the door while the train was running toward the center of Tokyo.

A few minutes later I also decided to leave the seat and got close to another door to get a view outside more clearly through a large window on the train door.

Then I moved to the opposite door to get other view on the opposite side of the railway. But, the strange man with a big suit bag was still standing there.

At the next station or so, he got off the train. I also looked around to see the well-tanned, temporary homeless man to find him nowhere.

Then I heard the western infant girl speaking Japanese to herself cheerfully; probably she must have spoken with her mother through a cellular phone her father had.

I was standing and watching the scenery out of the door-window of a train running into the center of Tokyo on one cold day in winter.
* * *

I got off the train, leaving other passengers, since I found that I was not going further on the day.

The train advanced to the center of Tokyo, leaving me alone on a highly raised concrete platform being blown by a cold wintry wind that made even Mt. Fuji so far looking cloudy and dimm.


(So, now you know words of an Angel can be heard, if not finding them on the subway wall in New York, in some train around Tokyo, though not so apocalyptic due to my personality.

And, you will also play a role in that sometime soon, Mlles.)


Rev 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.

Rev 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.

Rev 9:2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.

Rev 10:1 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:

Rev 10:2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,

Rev 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.





　

On the Hill or the Rock

On the Hill or the Rock

(Sur la colline ou de la roche)


In the Japan’s Fuji TV late-night news program, last night, they presented an interview video of Ms. Condoleezza Rice by Ms. Yuko Andou, a notable Japanese newscaster.

Ms. Rice looked relaxing in Tokyo and said that she would not run for Vice President this year and wanted to go back home after spending this year in Washington D.C.

It is also said that the US Secretary of State met with the Prime Minister of Israel in Tokyo yesterday.

The TV news program also introduced the next possible Russian President, yet to be elected by voters, who invited the rock band Deep Purple to Russia by leveraging funds of Gasprom.

(When Deep Purple first sprang to life on a North Sea ferry in 1968, not even Nostradamus could have predicted that the band would be headlining a gala show in Moscow Kremlin 40 years later. Yet here we are —...)

http://www.thehighwaystar.com/

The TV news program also presented the debate between “Hillary” and “Obama” being so intensified over the Medicare issue.

Indeed, we can see the world changing.

But, do you know the song "The Fool on the Hill" Mr. Paul McCartney sang decades ago.

http://www.iamthebeatles.com/article1149.html

Indeed, "but the fool on the hill, sees the sun going down, and the eyes in his head see the world spinning round."

(Yet, who do you think Paul met with on a hill looking down on London who magically disappeared while the young good-natured singer was looking for his stray dog?)

As I saw news enough last night on TV, I do not have much to say today, but please ponder the implication of one remark on oil prices posted on the Hill Blog by the president of a prominent US think tank:

As oil approaches $100 a barrel some pundits contend the price could reach $200 a barrel and could undermine western economies, involving an historic transfer of capital to oil producing nations. While this could happen, I remain unconvinced, maintaining several logical expectations…

http://blog.thehill.com/2008/02/26/seven-reasons-why-we-can-expect-a-drop-in-oil-prices/#more-5439

For your reference, I am now checking the Japanese version of the book “Histoire du petrole” by Etienne Dalemont et Jean Carrie.

It apparently tells that the enemies of Arabs have been more the U.K., France, and Germany than the U.S.

AlQaeda really tried to take a wrong target, probably, due to Mr. Osama bin Laden’s personally held grudges, in my theory.

Now, Arabs and Russians should act definitely as an intermediary between the U.S. and Iran without relying on the US Secretary of State busy for the North Korean issue or waiting for the next US President to be elected, since in Japanese crude oil is expressed as “rock (stone) oil” and the rock might destroy anything as the Gospel tells.




(Indeed, this is my conclusion from observation of the world last night like spinning round, round, round, and around a snake on the rock before, say, a rabbit…See the news on Friday, too!)

The more you study the 1963 JFK assassination conspiracy, the less you believe an easy conspiracy theory on the 9/11 Terror on New York and Washington D.C. in 2001.

“Mentions of the fate that befell President John F. Kennedy and Senator Kennedy only increased after Mr. Obama was joined on the campaign trail by Caroline Kennedy and Senator Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts.”

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/25/us/politics/25memo.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=Robert+Kennedy&st=nyt&oref=slogin


SECTION I: THE HERO

If you can fight a virtual war against the superpower United States of America for 40 years while governing one nation situated very close to the mainland of the U.S., you can claim the title of The Hero.

In this sense, Mr. Fidel Castro is The Hero of the Era after WWII.

It is well known that CIA tried to assassinate him in early 1960’s. CIA and Cuban insurgents tried the Bay of Pigs Invasion in vain in 1961.

Cuba could narrowly avoid the all-out US military invasion when the Cuban missile crisis set off in 1962.

Yet, Mr. Fidel Castro could be assassinated at any time, since CIA, the Mafia, and Cuban insurgents all dreamed of it and such an operation was not against the US Constitution and laws at all then.

However, it was then US President John F. Kennedy who was assassinated by an organization originally formed to target Mr. Fidel Castro in Havana.


SECTION II: JFK

There are some impressive things for me about the JFK assassination.

For example, some American citizens still believe that Mr. Fidel Castro ordered the assassination of JFK, which succeeded in Dallas.

It must be a result of a conspiracy to diffuse the conspiracy theory that Mr. Fidel Castro ordered the assassination of JFK.

By doing so, the true culprits could have people avert their thoughts from truth and accuse the potential victim, namely Mr. Fidel Castro, instead.

One of other impressive things is that an Israelite American was involved in the conspiracy: Jack Leon Ruby who reportedly in his childhood had worked for the notorious gangster Alphonse Gabriel Capone.

As Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey Oswald, arrested for a groundless charge of having shot JFK, in the Dallas Police Department building two days after the assassination of JFK, everything got into a mess and eventually buried under a heap of conspiracy theories including the one that points at Mr. Fidel Castro as the key plotter.


SECTION II: CARRIED OUT CONSPIRACY

Lee Harvey Oswald once visited and lived for some time in the Soviet Union after having left the US Marines.

It is said that it is because he had been recruited by CIA while being stationed in a US military base near Tokyo, Japan, in 1957 or so.

It is also said that he was trying to travel to Cuba months before the JFK assassination.

He actually made some demonstrations on a street of New Orleans to support Mr. Fidel Castro just before the JFK assassination.

So, it is as if Lee Harvey Oswald having become a spy of the Soviet Union had shot JFK by a rifle purchased through mail-order from a window of a text-book depository building where he had been hired though he had a Russian wife in the era of the truly cold war against the Soviet Union.

(Who would use his workplace as a platform of a snipe if he wants to avoid any suspicion falling on him after shooting the US President, especially when he has a wife from an enemy country?)

But, the fact must have been Lee Harvey Oswald was a spy who was hired by CIA.

In my theory, Lee Harvey Oswald was being set up by CIA to become a false traitor of the U.S. and get hired by the Soviet Union as a spy.

On the other hand, a secret unit of the US Government had a plan to assassinate Mr. Fidel Castro using people under control of the Mafia, such as Jack Ruby.

So, some high ranking US officials were engaged in two operations: the sending Lee Harvey Oswald to the Soviet Union or Cuba as a convert to Marxism, and the plot to assassinate Mr. Fidel Castro using the Mafia and Cuban insurgents.

These two plots were combined by chance or inevitably by those who made up their minds to assassinate JFK for some reasons.

As these two conspiracies had been being carried out in a closed world or in a restricted community of the US intelligence sphere, no one could trace the movement and human relationships of Lee Harvey Oswald (under CIA) and Jack Ruby (under the Mafia).

Especially, FBI and the next US President succeeding JFK simply or strangely accepted the conspiracy: JFK was shot and killed by Lee Harvey Oswald alone who was soon shot and killed by Jack Ruby, since Lee Harvey Oswald seemed to be a spy of the Soviet Union and Jack Ruby was an admirer of the Kennedys and a friend of the Dallas Police.

Indeed, as only several men knew the truth and they all belonged to CIA or the Mafia, no one including the US Congress and the US media could know the truth.

In this way, the JFK assassination was carried out and the spate of subsequent conspiracy theories actually blinded US citizens.


SECTION III: PROMISED SAFETY　

Mr. Fidel Castro must know all the facts and truth regarding the JFK Assassination Conspiracy that made him one of candidates for the possible mastermind behind the JFK Assassination.

He must even hold some evidences to prove who were really involved in the JFK Assassination Conspiracy, though Mr. Fidel Castro himself might not be so confidently aware of it all through his long career, which nonetheless has actually prevented a party concerned in Washington D.C., New York, Miami, New Orleans, and Chicago from taking disproportionately big risks while they have been alive, too, with overt or covert power at any moment in these decades.

That must be why he can survive and keep his power to date in Cuba situated so close to the mainland US, in my theory.
* * *

There are some liberal Japanese who still admire or newly come to admire Che Guevara (Ernesto Rafael Guevara de la Serna), a deceased old friend of Mr. Fidel Castro.

I don’t feel like strongly admiring Che Guevara, since he does not look like a Native American or a Hispanic.

True revolution in Latin America should be carried out by Hispanics or Native Central/South Americans, though in a wider scope there is a dangerous example of Pol Pot, Cambodia.

A true religious revolution in the U.S. should be mainly carried out by descendants of African slaves who were emancipated after the Civil War that ended in 1865.

Truly the color of the skin has almost nothing to do with it, since you can be color-blinded for some reason, for example, if the sun should be blue in the blue sky; yet the lineage is a concrete and fixed fact as depicted in the Gospel tracing back to the Sumerian Era from the birth of the First Messiah on the earth.



(What do you think of Ms. Caroline Kennedy?

As long as she lives, I think, this Era continues.

But, if your brother, if any, was killed in an accident like John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. after having taken off from an airport near New York in 1999, wouldn't you take some decisive action?

Especially won't you do so, if it was just after the death of Princess Diana in Paris?

Indeed, New York and Paris are not holy at all.

Doubtless, Tokyo must become holy. )

SETION I: ACADEMNY AWARDS

I don’t know if you have taken it as a miracle: “No Country for Old Men” winning the Academy Award.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Country_for_Old_Men_(film)

As I wrote on Feb 10, 2008, I was moved somewhat by the movie "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada" in which Mr. Tommy Lee Jones, as in “No Country for Old Men,” played a key role in the movie story set in a border area to Mexico.

Yet, Mr. Tommy Lee Jones, nowadays well known for his humbly humorous performance in a TV commercial of canned coffee in Japan, might be a symbolic person in a prophetic sense of this Era, since he and Mr. Al Gore “shared a room at Harvard University in Massachusetts as students.”

http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/article/gore%20and%20jones%20performed%20music%20to%20get%20girls_1036536

The Vatican, however, issued a statement criticizing so many violent movies having been nominated for the Academy Awards.

In Japan, everybody concerned hoped that a movie depicting the life of Genghis Khan would win an Award in the category of foreign films, since a Japanese actor played a role of the Mongolian conqueror and creator of the largest and mightiest empire in history.

However, Hitler seems to be still a concern of Americans, as an Austrian film, “The Counterfeiters,” took the Award in the category. Indeed, if a French woman dances in the end of a story, it might be highly appreciated in a US state whose Governor was born in a German speaking state in Europe.


SECTION II: MORELIA, MEXICO

The New York Times reported on a state of a Mexican state on December 18, 2007:

MORELIA, Mexico — Mexico’s country music stars are being killed at an alarming rate — 13 in the past year and a half, three already in December — in a trend that has gone hand in hand with the surge in violence between drug gangs here.

None of the cases have been solved. All have borne the signs of Mexican underworld executions, sending a chill through the ranks of other grupero musicians, who sing to a country beat about love, violence and drugs in modern Mexico….

“Sometimes there is a direct relationship between the musician and the narcotics trafficker,” said Miguel Olmos, a musicologist at the College of the Northern Border in Tijuana. “But also there are a lot of passionate crimes. That is to say, the musician establishes some sort of sentimental relationship with people who are linked to this culture of violence and of narcotics trafficking, and somehow it gets out of hand. They always touch some nerve of the trafficker.”
---
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/18/world/americas/18mexico.html?_r=1&pagewanted=print&oref=slogin

Mr. Tommy Lee Jones and Mr. Al Gore should turn their attentions and passions to make a film on their poor neighbors singing truly sad songs, if conceived as lively music, without a hope of winning any awards at all.


SECTION III: A RESEARCHER ON HITLER

A retired Japanese worker of a bank read 3,000 books about Hitler while he was working as an ordinary employee.

Based on his personal research, he published a book on Hitler in 2001.

He again published a book on Hitler this year, analyzing what Hitler truly was based on the best related 220 books.

( http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%92%E3%83%88%E3%83%A9%E3%83%BC%E3%81%A8%E3%81%AF%E4%BD%95%E8%80%85%E3%81%A0%E3%81%A3%E3%81%9F%E3%81%AE%E3%81%8B-%E2%80%95%E5%8E%B3%E9%81%B8220%E5%86%8A%E3%81%8B%E3%82%89%E8%AA%AD%E3%81%BF%E8%A7%A3%E3%81%8F-%E5%AD%A6%E7%A0%94M%E6%96%87%E5%BA%AB-%E3%81%82-16-1/dp/4059012114)

However, he is neither a kind of nerdy admirer of Adolf Hitler nor a member of an extreme right wing party, since his works are all at an academic level supported by a pure intellectual curiosity.

The conclusion the Japanese author Mr. Yoshio Abe wrote in his book is that one of the reasons why there still remains even today a shadow of the past admiration of Hitler is probably what he achieved, no matter how horribly sinful and unforgivable, was on the extension of secular religion and theology in Germany of the Era.

I can say that Germany produced Adolf Hitler and the U.K. offered Charlie Chaplin, both having lived on their paradigms of secularism a difference between which however made an extreme difference.

Yet, if we had had the Messiah, the both would not have found a chance of success.

Conversely, as mankind had not the Messiah in those days, its history had to unfortunately allow Adolf Hitler and Charlie Chaplin to take their chances to test their predetermined fates even if so having been pre-determined in the worst case scenario of history as a pair, though not like the one of Mr. Gore and Mr. Jones.

We have to still reject Hitler while appreciating Chaplin, since we have not yet the Messiah.
* * *

In Japan we have a proverb: “Fact is stranger than fiction.”

The biggest dramas in this decade are of course a conspiracy leading to the death of Princess Diana, a state of the US Government negligently (or partly by intent) having missed a chance to stop the 9/11 Terror, and the US Presidential Primary Elections in 2000 and 2008 in addition to the global influence of the Subprime Loan Problem.

The history probably does not like to include other incidents, such as the US-Iran war or the nuclear warfare in the Korean Peninsula even after the 2008 Olympic Games in China.

As the Prime Minister of Israel and US State Secretary Ms. Condoleezza Rice are now visiting or will soon visit Japan, I hope they will learn something here such as, say, “The Counterfeiters.”



(The God is watching your life.

Your life is a kind of a movie story for Him.

You are a heroine in a play at least the God Almighty is watching.

That is why I am telling you to forget about everything you have ever learnt in this world and just go out and find the Messiah.

Then, your life will be titled “The Messiah.”

Accordingly, I will be satisfied more than seeing you on a movie screen or a TV screen in the still of the night…)




“HE APPEARED IN HUMAN FORM”

(Er erschien in menschlicher Gestalt.)




　　

A Miracle, Miracle; That’s a Miracle!

(common scenery around Tokyo in winter)




A Miracle, Miracle; That’s a Miracle!

(C'est un miracle, en fait un miracle.)



SECTION I: Derision

Some viewers might have been laughing at EEE Reporter when they read the report on February 22, "So, the Philippines seemed to be another source of a holy miracle," since no spectacular incident has happened in the Philippines since then.

But, it happened in terms of the first two paragraphs of the report:
“Several days ago, a Japanese TV station reported on a Philippine island and one of villages therein where most of residents are making handguns by their hands manually to earn their humble bread and butter.

It also introduced a suspicion that a Japanese entrepreneur was shot and killed in the island by local killers hired by another Japanese.”

Just after I posted it on the EEE Reporter blog on the last Friday, the police in Saipan, a US territory island in the Pacific, reportedly arrested a Japanese man following a request from the Los Angeles police.


SECTION II: News

The arrested Japanese is now facing a charge of having hired a killer to have him shoot at his wife on a by-place plot in Los Angeles 27 years ago, in order to gain insurance money which the suspect actually later got in the amount of 1.4 million dollars.

http://news.aol.com/story/_a/japanese-man-held-in-wifes-80s-death/n20080223175309990007?cid=842

http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/02/23/japan.businessman.ap/index.html?eref=rss_topstories

But, you may wonder why this news of a single Japanese suspect has such a news value.


SECTION III: Truth Behind the Scene

It is true that this case has been virtually regarded as one of the early examples of modern murder-for-insurance cases in Japan being observed somehow so often in media reports since then, though the suspect was not found guilty in Japan after a long judicial proceeding.

The amount 1.4 million dollars or 150 million yen was not small at all then.

It was also the era when the US general public came to be aware of the Japanese economic power overwhelming even another superpower the Soviet Union.

But, the truth is that the suspected Japanese has a very famous aunt, a former actress and influential woman in the Japanese entertainment business.

She was a great heroine as an actress and singer; even today some fans commemorate her performance in 1930’s:

(http://blog.livedoor.jp/chidori527/archives/50913270.html )

(http://blog.goo.ne.jp/yamakyou_2005/e/8e95520376abd0f505608fef813b0c8e )

As there are many fans of old songs or golden oldies in Japan, especially even among relatively young politicians, this only can be a big factor.

But, most interestingly, she reportedly helped with ardor junior actors and singers, such as the late younger brother of the incumbent Governor of Tokyo, grow as very successful entertainers in the Japanese show business after WWII.

(http://mnews.news2ch.net/read.php/1085434247/ )

I don’t know how much intimate some Japanese politicians, such as Tokyo Governor Mr. Shintaro Ishihara, are with former actress Ms. Mizunoe one of whose nephews is now going to be indicted in Los Angeles, though the Japanese Supreme Court in 2003 acquitted him finally of the very charge of the murder-for-insurance case that happened 27 years ago in the U.S.

Yet, you have to take into consideration on this extensive media reporting on the suspect the following fact: the suspect is not an ordinary citizen since he has a very prominent aunt who, though now very old, might be still very popular among old but influential Japanese politicians and other types of celebrities.

(On the other hand, there is a speculation that the suspect’s Internet site might be associated with this raking over the old criminal ashes, since he has been acting like a harsh critic against the present law and order system in Japan.

[ http://www.0823.org/shu1_diary/shu1_diary/ ])


SECTION IV: Over Crimes, Sins and Tragedies

Last night, former Defense Minister of Japan, Ms. Yuriko Koike, joined a TV news-show program that took the arrest of the suspect in Saipan as one of its major features, humbly saying, "I was just an assistant of a TV newscaster at that time…"

Indeed, Ms. Koike drastically changed her career to become a lawmaker in various parties. From a young female TV reporter to a wandering politician traversing the Japanese political arena, she has become a Cabinet Minister a few times though she faced harsh criticism last year when conflicted with the then undersecretary of the Defense Ministry who was however arrested by the Tokyo Public Prosecutor on a charge of bribery late last year as if a miracle had happened to save Ms. Koike’s face.

Indeed, 27 years ago, the World Trade Center Towers in New York had already existed for several years.

Today, they have gone for several years.

Truly three decades correspond to one generation.

And, as Jesus Christ said that a tragedy falling on a person was not due to a sin his parents or ancestors had committed but for the glory of God to appear, we must probably assume that glory of God is gradually emerging over crimes, sins and tragedies that have occurred in these decades.

Personally, I felt only remote respect to the completion of building of the WTC Towers in New York in the wake of the Vietnam War and felt only remote sympathy to the Japanese suspect whose wife was fatally shot in Los Angeles, both almost some 30 years ago when I observed and heard them.

However, I felt no sense of discomfort when I observed and heard that Ms. Koike started to venture into the political arena some 15 years ago.

Now, on which did you feel more a sense of discomfort when you first heard a news report, Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s running or Mr. Barack Obama’s running for US Presidential Primary Election?



(Indeed, 27 years ago, Ms. Koike was as young as some Japanese female newscaster of today. As she has been long in singlehood, she seems to be somewhat carrying an atmosphere of those days.

Truly, 27 years ago, Mrs. Clinton must have been as young as some US actress of today. As she has not divorced, she seems to be somewhat carrying a liberating atmosphere of the post-Vietnam War era.

Doubtless, three decades later, good girls and Mlles., you might look back at the present age retrospectively rediscovering miracles here and there around the EEE Reports, since you are now as young as those ladies 27 years ago.)

1996, 2001, and 2008

1996, 2001, and 2008


(1996, 2001, et l'an 2008)



Early in 2001, a USS submarine hit and demolished a training ship of a Japanese fisheries high school off the Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, killing 9 students and instructors.

Then, in September 2001, the 9/11 Terror attacks occurred in New York and Washington D.C., killing 3000 people. US Media extensively used the expression “Pearl Harbor Attack Again.”

Early in 2008, a Japanese Aegis ship hit and demolished a fishing boat near the Tokyo Bay, leaving two Japanese fishermen in the dark sea of the very early morning without a hope of survival at all from a technical point of view.

But, we cannot foresee what will happen in September 2008, at least now.
* * *

A few years after the 9/11 Terror, Mr. Richard A. Clarke and Mr. Paul O’Neill, both engaged in the Bush Administration at a very higher level, wrote books which have allowed readers to have a deep insight into the state of the White House on the occurrence of the Terror.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_O%27Neill_%28cabinet_member%29

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_A._Clarke

In addition, in their books, I find not a shadow of an evidence of a conspiracy that President Mr. George Bush had planned and ordered the 9/11 Terror so that he could control the US society more tightly and invade Iraq against the US Constitution.
* * *

In order to find what the fatal accident the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Forces ship caused augurs, it may be interesting to refer to a certain Japanese blog article posted by a former lawmaker who was also a Minister of the Japanese Government when the Peruvian hostage crisis masterminded by Peruvian terrorists happened in December 1996.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_embassy_hostage_crisis

(http://www.liberal-shirakawa.net/tsurezuregusa/index.php?itemid=512#more )

(Indeed, the then National Public Safety Commission Chairman of Japan very personally got the information of the guerilla raid to Japan's official facilities in Lima, in the middle of the party held there celebrating the Emperor's Birth Day, at 5 a.m. through an NHK early morning news program in Tokyo, and took a cab in haste to the Headquarters of National Police Agency before receiving any official information and notices but eventually could attend the emergency meeting held from 6 a.m. in the Office of Prime Minister where then Prime Minister, his close advisor, the Foreign Minister, and other urgently and selectively called Ministers were already present, though sadly relying on information only provided by highly troubled embassy officials in Peru.)

Put simply, as the books written by Mr. Richard A. Clarke and Mr. Paul O’Neill suggest, top leaders of the U.S. and Japan may not be so smart, excellent, or preeminent at all.

They do not look smart, excellent, or preeminent enough even to plan and carry out a big conspiracy, when checking those related books, memoirs, and blog articles.

Or, they do not look smart, excellent, or preeminent enough at all to be always ready to immediately respond to a challenge that happens like a bolt out of the blue, when checking those related books, memoirs, and blog articles.
* * *

As Japan had experienced the Peruvian hostage crisis in December 1996, Japanese people were not so much upset by the 1997 Princess Diana’s death surrounded by a true conspiracy as well as the 2001 9/11 Terror still being abused so much by some conspiracy theory tellers.

It might not be so easy to comprehend the whole sequence of the recent history, but you have to take the following facts when delineating an outlook for a political and security trend globally or around Japan.

“Early in 2001, a USS submarine hit and demolished a training ship of a Japanese fisheries high school off the Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, killing 9 students and instructors.

Then, in September 2001, the 9/11 Terror attacks occurred in New York and Washington D.C., killing 3000 people. US Media extensively used the expression 'Pearl Harbor Attack Again.'

Early in 2008, a Japanese Aegis ship hit and demolished a fishing boat near the Tokyo Bay, leaving two Japanese fishermen in the dark sea of the very early morning without a hope of survival at all from a technical point of view…”

Don't Break Her Heart!

(Ne brise pas son coeur)



Several days ago, a Japanese TV station reported on a Philippine island and one of villages therein where most of residents are making handguns by their hands manually to earn their humble bread and butter.

It also introduced a suspicion that a Japanese entrepreneur was shot and killed in the island by local killers hired by another Japanese.

It is also well known that Toyota, a gigantic Japanese car manufacturer, has a trouble with a local labor union in the Philippines.

In this context, The New York Times article on Toyota can be read more interestingly:

"It’s extremely important to have the same common Toyota Way infiltrated to employees in all corners of the world,” said Katsuaki Watanabe, the company’s president. “But on the other hand, in each corner of the world, in each region, there are inherent characteristics that need to be respected."

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/22/business/worldbusiness/22toyota.html?scp=2&sq=Toyota&st=nyt

A few days ago, I found that old Japanese singer "I George" has a Spanish Filipino mother, which, I mused, might be a reason for his affecting performance with songs, such as, "Johnny the Glass."

And, yesterday, Japanese media reported that a US soldier stationed in an Okinawa base, Japan, is under police investigation for his violence on a young Filipino woman working in the island Okinawa, in the wake of another violence by another US soldier on a Japanese low-teen girl.

And then I viewed a blog article written by a young Japanese anti-establishment researcher on environment to read his reference to Mariano Ponce, a hero of the Philippine who fought against Western colonists while spending some time in Japan to get support from Japanese people, including respectable ex-samurai pundit Kaisyu Katsu, 120 years ago.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariano_Ponce

So, the Philippines seemed to be another source of a holy miracle.

But, in his Japanese blog, what took my attention more was his mention of Mr. Benedict Anderson who is well known for his academic research and study on politics and society of Indonesia.

(http://blog.goo.ne.jp/reforestation/e/08e54bd9eba6f45af054ebea8bafa05c )

You may very much like to access another site concerned with this notable American academian whose Japanese book on globalization is highly regarded among a knowledgeable community in Japan.

In 1983 the professor at Cornell University, New York, wrote one of the most read books ever on nationalism, "Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism."
http://www.culcom.uio.no/aktivitet/anderson-kapittel-eng.html

In the above indicated Web site hosted by Oslo University, Mr. Benedict Anderson talked about a student who once confessed to him that he, though “black” he was, had the “white” mother and he could not reveal the fact to his classmates.

At the end of the interview posted there, Mr. Benedict Anderson said:
It sounds perhaps too sentimental, but I saw, here in Stavanger, a black boy playing with other Norwegian children. I was so happy. Don't break his heart!

Indeed now, Mr. Barack Obama who spent some time in Indonesia with his "white" mother when he was a child is now competing with a European American lady for nomination to be an official Presidential candidate of the Democratic Party.

Truly, everybody should be happy observing it.

Now, don't break her heart!




(Which do you think you have, an analogue type or a digital type of personality?

The analogue type usually means not being good at handling high-tech equipment.

But it should also mean respecting more spiritual and ethical aspects of one’s life.

This type of persons may be regarded as being more compassionate or sensible to other’s feeling.

From my observation, a digital type of personality is more often found in flimsy advocates of the global economy and hypocritical advocates of socialism or communism, though ideal and justice of globalization as well as socialism and Marxism can be only achieved by truly pious followers of the Messiah and God.

So, good girls and Mlles., don’t be flimsy or hypocritical, since some people are really risking their lives for their own righteous cause, such as a Global Religious Revolution.

Have a nice weekend!)

Warnings to Super-Rich Arab People

(Tokyo, Japan, Asia)



Warnings to Super-Rich Arab People

(Avertissements aux super-riches peuple arabe)



Yesterday I bought a Japanese book about super-rich Arab people.

(http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/410610251X?ie=UTF8&linkCode=as2&tag=blogsofdankog-22 )

The author is a former chief of office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, of Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO).

It is very authentic, since the Japanese author had been working in the Japanese oil industry since 1976 even befor having joined JETRO, a Japanese Government-affiliated organization.

According to his estimation, there are still 1.2 trillion barrels of crude oil under the ground of the Middle East.

With an assumption of a value, $100 per barrel, the untapped source of wealth in the Arab oil producing countries is worth 120 trillion dollars.

The author also introduced estimation of years left for those countries with crude oil available or reserve-production ratio:

Saudi Arabia – 67 years
UAE – 90 years
Kuwait – More than 100 years

With natural gas:
Saudi Arabia – 96 years
UAE – More than 100 years
Qatar – More than 100 years

Therefore, according to his claim, mankind should not worry about depletion of fossil fuels at present.

As for the financial power, the working balance of total oil dollars is said to be 2.5 trillion dollars, according to a certain research organization.

However, a more authentic figure is the total current-account surplus of member countries of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) between 2002 and 2006, which reaches 540 billion dollars.

At least, 300 billion dollars are invested into the U.S; 100 billion dollars into Europe; 60 billion dollars into the Middle East; 60 billion dollars into Asia; and 20 billion dollars into others.

(The scale of the national budget of the U.S. is about 2000 billion dollars and that of Japan is about 800 billion dollars.

Yet, the Islamic oil producing countries cannot overwhelm the U.S. and Japan.)

But, while they have no first-rate industries, no first-rate engineering base, no first-rate scientific development base, no first-rate universal cultural back ground, they have just accumulated that amount of dollars relying on only one commodity: fossil fuels including crude oil and natural gas.

Their dollars are not a result of honest and hard working of their people including royal families concerned.

Crude oil and natural gas are just endowed Muslims with by Allah.

It is not to make royal families concerned super-rich.

It is to make poor Muslims in the world rich.

I don’t think that Allah would be pleased to see super-rich Arab royal families while there are a billion of poor Muslims in the world.

The Japanese author of the book also mentioned Mr. Adnan Kashoggi, a Saudi Arabian agent of the US defense industry (having a business tie with influential US investment groups including the Bushes) and an uncle of Princess Diana’s Muslim boyfriend.

But, Arab countries do not need Mr. Kashoggi any more, since their newly acquired financial power has strengthened their position in business with the U.S., the U.K. and so on.

He also cited that the U.K. and France have been in a severe competition for selling their weapons, especially fighter planes, to those GCC countries.

He wrote that Prince Charles and his new wife visited Saudi Arabia in the middle of this trade war, probably, for promotion of British weapons sales.

But, what concerns me more is that if a fraction of oil dollars is offered for terrorists through complicated channels, no one would be able to trace them and prove the fact, since the source is so large.

Actually, a half of the above said 540 billion dollars GCC countries can use for any investment is being used in a very closed manner.

As GCC countries are not based on democracy Allah has, however, never rejected, no one can check how their royal families use oil dollars in global market or in any other deal.

Allah gave Islam and crude oil to Arabs; but somebody must give them democracy that makes every transaction concerned with oil and dollars transparent.

Otherwise, terrorists will never experience troubles in finding funds that support their activities.

The War on Terror must advance, without relying on military forces and organized violence, to the War on Monpoly of Oil Dollars which might be the main source of every conspiracy theory about the 9/11 Terror.

The next US President yet to be must strat to address it even in the middle of his or her election campaign.



(A few days ago, I bought a movie CD, the Robe.

"The Robe is most famous now for being the first movie filmed in CinemaScope…In this way it rather resembles how Ben Hur interweaves the Biblical story with fictional events of Ben Hur's life…"

http://www.amazon.com/Robe-Richard-Burton/dp/6301628454

However, as I have been busy and the late-night TV news program is so important, I cannot still find time to play it on my PC screen.

But, I met the movie CD, priced at 478 yen or 4.6 dollars, at an almost hidden corner of a super-market with various discounted commodities where I saw a kind of angels.

I might view it on Saturday, since Saturday is nowadays truly a holiday-like day.)

American Dream and Miracle in Japan

(Tokyo, Japan)



American Dream and Miracle in Japan

(Rêve américain et un miracle au Japon)




SECTION I: AMERICAN DREAM

The New York Times Online has mentioned a state of the American Dream paradigm:
---
“The American dream of opportunity is alive, but frayed,” said Isabel Sawhill, another author of the report, “Getting Ahead or Losing Ground: Mobility in America.” The report is at http: //economicmobility.org/.

“It’s still alive for immigrants but badly tattered for African-Americans,” said Ms. Sawhill, an economist and a budget official in the Clinton administration. “It’s more alive for people in the middle class than for people at the very bottom.”

The report and planned studies constitute the most comprehensive effort to examine intergenerational mobility, said John E. Morton of the Pew Trusts, who is managing the project. It draws heavily on a federally supported survey by the University of Michigan that has followed thousands of families since the late 1960s.

A chapter of the report released last fall found startling evidence that a majority of black children born to middle-class parents grew up to have lower incomes and that nearly half of middle-class black children fell into the bottom fifth in adulthood, compared with 16 percent of middle-class white children.
---

Still they do not understand why the God Almighty allowed Columbus to sail to the west on the Atlantic with a dream of reaching Japan, a nation of gold as described in Marco Polo’s book, but eventually find the New Continent later named America.

It is not to make poor Europeans rich.

It was to give another chance to European Christians whose belief had been badly influenced by arrogant and profane mental development of the Vatican, so that they could become true Christians and followers of Jesus Christ in the new continent.

I hope that The New York Times will stop using the term “American Dream” in a context of material prosperity and success as well as pursuit of wealth in America.

Americans should use the word “American Dream” as a concept meaning spiritual growth and religious success as well as pursuit of true faith in America.


SECTION II: AFRICAN AMERICANS

The most unique people in America have been always African Americans.

If you admit that the God gave another chance to European Christians whose belief had been badly influenced by arrogant and profane mental development of the Vatican, so that they could become true Christians and followers of Jesus Christ in the new continent, you might wonder what the existence of African Americans in the new continent means.

Europeans who wanted to materialize their lustful American Dream brought Africans by force to America in order to use them as slaves, namely free labor force.

So, even in the American society today, there is a mainstream system inherently unsuitable for material success of African Americans, meaning that barriers for them to be rich are higher.

But, it is not bad at all for African Americans, since their unhappiness is all for emergence of glory of the God.

In this context, African Americans are expected to become true Christians and followers of Jesus Christ in lieu of European Americans, since the latter has failed in this context as they are still shouting “American Dream” in terms of material success Jesus Christ completely rejected.

In terms of religion, it is African Americans that represent Americans today from a historical point of view.

So, be proud of being chosen so by the God for the holy mission, and go back to Africa to tell people there what you have learnt spiritually in the new continent where profane European Americans are still shouting “American Dream” in terms of material success Jesus Christ completely rejected.

And then, help Africans protect themselves from invasion by Europeans.


SECTION III: A RECENT MIRACLE IN JAPAN

Ordinary American high-school students living in a local town never dream how globally influential businesses with their headquarters in New York are.

And, ordinary young workers in New York never dream how globally influential governmental departments and agencies in Washington DC are.

When ordinary young Americans start to work in the Department of Defense even before the era of the War on Terror, they usually for the first time discover how globally extensive and massive the deployment of the US military forces are.

Indeed, what symbolizes the success of the material American Dream is this establishment of hugely and globally deployed US military forces.

Even an American country boy recruited and sent to an overseas base will realize what sustains materially rich America.

Good or bad, a global economic system and a trade framework are kept favorable to the U.S. because the US military forces have been bolstering those international systems with material forces expelling enemies against free trade, free market, free economy, and underlying democracy.

But, transferring 60 US Naval jet fighters to a base near a densely-populated area of a city near Hiroshima from another base near Tokyo is controversial.

Noises, risks of downing of a plane, and possibility of an increase in crimes involving US soldiers have worried Japanese residents and citizens in the city.

So, recently an election for the mayor of the city was conducted to decide whether to accept such a transfer plan involving the US Naval planes or not.

Consequently, a candidate who favors the US Navy plan supported by the ruling parties and the Japanese Government won, though, by the very narrow margin.

After the election, strangely, a few accidents involving US Military and Japanese Self-Defense Force happened in and around Japan.

A US soldier in an Okinawa base violated a middle school Japanese girl and was arrested by Japanese police.

A Japanese Aegis ship of the Self-Defense Force yesterday hit and sank a small fishing boat near the Tokyo Bay two Japanese fishermen on which are still missing.

If these two incidents had happened before the election of the said city, another candidate (the former mayor of the city against the ruling parties) who is against the US military transformation would have been elected.

Liberal people in Japan are against the US military transformation and Japan’s cooperation with the U.S. for promoting the US global military strategy.

But, they are very reluctant in blaming nuclear arms development efforts by North Korea.

Some of them actually have helped North Korea hide their covert operation to abduct 100 or so Japanese citizens for intelligent and espionage purposes.

It is because they believe that North Korea is a good socialist country against the bad capitalist country America who is exploiting Japan while doing nothing good to Japan.

Hiroshima is near the Korean Peninsula. The election in the city near Hiroshima with the issue of controversy about US military deployment must concern North Korea. So, I was afraid that an outcome of the election might send a bad message to North Korea.

In addition, some liberal critics and pundits were saying that if voters of the city selected the candidate who approved the US military deployment and Japanese Government’s cooperation with the US must know shame as they are selling their good Japanese souls to the devil by receiving subsidiary money from the Government.

I can understand the feeling and claims of those liberal Japanese people. But, I worried over their attitudes: they put themselves in the absolute justice and blamed opponents, saying that they have sold their good Japanese souls to the devil.

And, they never mentioned the influence of their attitudes on North Korea. I didn’t think that their manner would lead to solution of the issue on Japanese abductees by North Korea.

If you are going to fight against the U.S. and the Japanese Government, you must be like followers of Jesus Christ.

You must not be like a hypocrite.

And, as those harmful incidents involving the US military in Okinawa and Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force happened after the election, the candidate in favor of US military transformation was elected.

So, I find a miracle in this sequence of events, since the existence of the US military in Japan has a very significant meaning that cannot be easily handled by present professional liberals in Japan, no matter if they call themselves Christians or Buddhists.

If in future all the US military bases in Japan are abolished and taken away, it must be done by more thoughtful voters, taxpayers, and consumers in responsible communities in Japan but not by those making money by selling liberal ideas while neglecting Japanese abductees by North Korea for their political or personal interest and strategy.

So, I find a miracle in this sequence of events, which ordinary US citizens never know unless reported here.

And, I hope that a miracle will also happen in the 2008 US Presidential Election alike.



(If you are an attractive girl, you may become simply happy in a conservative community.

But, in case you are not, which however I think to be impossible, you might not become easily happy in a conservative community where there are many wrong capitalists who judge everything in terms of commercial value in market.

So, you might try to be happy by joining a liberal community, expecting their big welcome. But, it can be a fatal mistake, since there are many liberals whose hate is stronger than love.

However, if you join a conventional religious community, it might be worse.

You must think twice and thrice.

Nonetheless, if you are an attractive girl, which you are since you are reading EEE Report, but still find a sin in a conservative community, you may be given a chance to be saved and blessed by the Messiah.

Yet, I do not blame you, if you join any party, since I know the God will judge everybody on the same standards.

The more you are given, the more you are expected to give.)

SECTION I: Pakistan

The New York Times reported on Pakistan’s Election:
Early results showed equal gains for the Pakistan Peoples Party, whose leader, Benazir Bhutto, was assassinated on Dec. 27, and the Pakistan Muslim League-N, the faction led by Nawaz Sharif, like Ms. Bhutto a former prime minister. Each parties may be in a position to form the next government.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/19/world/asia/19pstan.html?_r=1&hp&oref=slogin

BBC also reported on the early outcomes of the election:
Polls suggest a fair vote is likely to result in a hung parliament, with none of the three biggest parties winning a majority, analysts suggest.
Attention will then turn on the PPP, and whether it chooses to join forces with pro-Musharraf parties, or with Mr Sharif's party.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7249455.stm

Everybody got shocked by the 9/11 Terror in 2001. But, a few people have tried, since then, to understand and save Afghan people who had mistakenly helped, in a technical term, AlQaeda who performed the 9/11 Terror.

More fewer people in the world have been trying to understand and save Pakistanis who had helped, though somewhat in a selfish manner, those Afghans who mistakenly helped AlQaeda who eventually performed the 9/11 Terror.

For example, it is said that the Pakistan’s support for the Taliban had been intensified when Benazir Bhutto was the prime minister of Pakistan for a few years until 1996.

It is truly deplorable that some people are being addicted to some conspiracy theory to point at the Bush Administration as a mastermind of the 9/11 Terror, instead of trying to understand and save Pakistanis and Afghans suffering from so many acts of terror and unthinkable poverty.

To diffuse some conspiracy theory pointing at the Bush Administration as the mastermind of the 9/11 Terror is apparently a true conspiracy, since believers of the conspiracy theory will not try to understand and save poor Pakistanis and Afghans suffering so many acts of terror and unthinkable poverty since the Era of Occupation by the British Empire, thus allowing terrorists and beneficiaries of such terror to escape from the enforcement of justice and further build their scheme of violent or sophisticated terror crimes if not targeting the U.S.

The only sin for the Bush Administration, in this context, is their selfish pursuit of finding and holding a chance to mobilize the US military to attack Saddam Hussein and drive him out of the power of the nation Iraq.

What the true motivation for President Mr. George Bush to have pursued such a chance in a somewhat perfidious manner was is another matter, though so profoundly connected with Israel and Saudi Arabia.


SECTION II: Israel vs. Iran

It is very interesting to read an opinion of a US think tank on Israel vs. Iran.

If Israel does not act, Iran will likely secure an understanding with Arab states, notwithstanding suspicions about Persian hegemony. Shia and Sunni will be united with one goal in mind: the elimination of the Zionist state.

If Israel does act — even if its actions are successful — the Arab street will be aroused. Suicide bombings would multiply. Al Qaeda would try to destabilize Pakistan in the hope it can get its hands on a nuclear weapon. Muslim extremism would gain traction everywhere on the globe and Israel would be isolated, perhaps even estranged from the United States with politicians decrying Israeli bellicosity.

One of the factors US voters should take into serious consideration in the 2008 Presidential Election Race is how Mr. McCain, Mr. Obama, or Mrs. Clinton will deal with Israel and Iran, since Saddam Hussein and Yasser Arafat were gone.

Put simply, Israel is now enjoying an unthinkably elevated degree of security in comparison with the situation in and after the 1973 Arab-Israeli War and the Fourth Arab-Israeli War.

Since then, Egypt has virtually allied with the U.S.; the Soviet Union collapsed; Iraq and Iran consumed their national power through the Iran-Iraq War; Saddam Hussein was eliminated from Baghdad forever; PLO lost Yasser Arafat forever; US Military is still occupying Iraq; Islamic states around the Persian Gulf are now rich members of the global money market where super-rich Israelite Americans/Europeans are major players; and Saudi Arabia is all the more thankful to the U.S. who has been suppressing AlQaeda, a dangerous factor to the Saudi Arabian Government now enjoying big oil dollars.

Indeed, except minor skirmishes that never topple the foundation of Israel, the only remote concern for Israel is nuclear-armed Iran trying to establish itself as the leader of the Islamic world or the sole guardian of Mecca.

But, will Iran dare launch nuclear-armed attacks on Israel to establish itself as the leader of the Islamic world or the sole guardian of Mecca?

Can Iran achieve the aim through their use of nuclear weapons against Israel by making enemy of the U.S., EU, Japan, Persian Gulf Arab states now enjoying unthinkable prosperity and supporting the Wall Street, and all the other nations including China and Russia who still need a friendly relationship with the U.S., EU, and Japan?

Iranian people have far longer history than Anglo-Saxons. They are not savages. They are capable of playing a very sophisticated game which is pursued for their glory but not for total destruction.

Indeed, US voters should take into serious consideration in the 2008 Presidential Election Race how Mr. McCain, Mr. Obama, or Mrs. Clinton will deal with Israel and Iran, since Saddam Hussein and Yasser Arafat were gone, though Mr. Osama bin Laden is reportedly still at large around the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan or in Saudi Arabia according to Mr. Michael Moore’s theory.

As President Mr. Bush cannot arrest Mr. Osama bin Laden, he is expected to try to achieve some results in the North Korean issue.

If North Korea completely abandons its nuclear arms development program and concludes a kind of peace treaty with South Korea through the intermediation of the US President who can leverage Chinese support and Japan’s advice, Mr. Bush will honorably leave the White House in 2009.

Therefore, the role Ms. Condoleezza Rice should play is going to be all the more important.

Run for the 2012 Presidential Election, ” Condoleezza!”




(Yesterday, an NHK FM radio channel in Japan played songs by I George, a Japanese singer who, as the first among Japanese, held a recital in the Carnegie Hall, New York, in 1963.

I almost forgot the song “Johnny the Glass (garasu-no Johnny)” for a very long time; but it was still nice to hear it again.

Especially its words, “the black sun has gone as eyelids fall; indeed a memory of your loving woman will someday fade away…,” are somehow still moving.

Truly, two beautiful women have gone in Paris and Karachi in this decade, or specifically in 1997 and 2007.

But, aren’t there others who would advance over their tragedies for the true glory of the God or Allah, since “Johnny the Glass” is still being played waiting for oblivion or limbo?

I Read News in Tokyo as They Ran

(J'ai lu des nouvelles à Tokyo comme ils courraient.)



SECTION I: 30,000 Citizens Ran 42.195km in Tokyo

Yesterday, there was a big marathon race in Tokyo in which around 30,000 citizen runners along with professional ones competed.

http://www.asahi.com/english/Herald-asahi/TKY200802180045.html

I was also in Tokyo and looking at the Tokyo Prefecture Office buildings at which the start point of the marathon race was set though I had a newspaper aside to read.

In yesterday’s Tokyo Shimbun newspaper, they reported the independence of Kosovo, 80 people killed in Afghanistan in suicide bombing, and two million Germans virtually killed by Poles after WWII as they were violently expelled out of former German territories in Poland.


SECTION II: Two Million Germans Reportedly Killed

It should be never forgotten that 20 million people were killed by the Soviet Communist Party; 40 million people were virtually killed by the Chinese Communist Party through their wrong policies and strategies; and three million Japanese were killed in WWII, in addition to six million Israelite Europeans during WWII.

For the eye of mankind, only the tragedy of Israelite Europeans might be meaningful; but to the Eye of God, one German victim, one Russian victim, one Chinese victim, or one Japanese victim must have the same significance as one Israelite European, since life and fate is what is given to an individual human being by the God.

The nation Israel should not make an enemy out of Muslims as well as out of Germans, Russians, Chinese, and Japanese, since the latter in total lost 65 million lives around WWII which was caused by total sins of mankind to God of the Era.

And the former have been mostly victims of the British Empire.


SECTION III: A British Economist Praising “Obama”

The Tokyo Shimbun newspaper yesterday posted a comment by a British economist who highly regarded the candidate “Obama” and made some reference to Japan.

The British economist wrote that the candidate “Obama” would help the poor more than the candidate “Hillary” by allocating more US Government budgets to promotion of welfare of the poor.

He expects the candidate “Obama” to contribute to narrowing the gap between the poor and the rich, which will be good for total US economy.

I also hope that President Mr. Barack Obama will help the poor in the United States and other countries including Mexico and other Latin American countries as well as those in Afghanistan and Iraq.

But, what has made me cite the comment by the British economist in London is not his reference to the candidate “Obama” but that to Japan.


SECTION IV: True State of the Japanese Economy

The economist wrote that it is a commonsense in the global economist community that the reasons for the economic slump of Japan are the lower level of domestic demands in Japan and the increased gap between the poor and the rich in the Japanese society.

So, now you know how flippant the talks of those who gathered in Davos are.

As I once wrote that the economic slump of Japan in 1990’s is rather an environment protection issue than a pure economic issue.

As I wrote, if all the Americans living in the west of the Mississippi River were forced to love in the California state, the nature and the land of California would be devastated due to their economic activities in the confined land.

Japan has the land size almost equal to California and the population as many as 40% of the US population.

If Japan had continued around a 5% economic growth per year from 1990’s to the present day, its land and nature must be devastated and contaminated as bad as China is going to be today.

In addition, the mind and heart of the Japanese people would be also contaminated by evil of Mammon and foreign worshippers of Mammon coming from London and New York.

To protect Japan's land and nature and Japanese inherent ethical and spiritual culture, the Japanese economy should have been slowed down and the people of Japan actually did it by instinct.

Japan could have boosted its domestic demands; but if it had done so, the boosted economic activities would have severely damage the nature and the heart and mind of the people as we are observing it in China.

Another factor, the gap between the rich and the poor, is the very consequence of the Anglo-Saxon type global market system, though it also cannot be a decisive factor for the Japanese economic slump.

The U.S. and the U.K. have been domestically divided countries between the poor and the rich in the far larger scale and in a far longer period of time than in Japan.

Yet, both the country have enjoyed an economic boom more than Japan in this decade.

The truth is that this gap recently intenisfied in the Japanese society has been triggered by partly-forced introduction of rules and customs of the Anglo-Saxon-type reckless global market system based on the old paradigm of the Colonial Era but also the modern IT technology.

So, the true factor of the Japanese economic slump in this context is rather inappropriateness of introduction of rules and customs of the Anglo-Saxon-type global market system than the widened gap between the rich and the poor in the Japanese society which is merely part of the result of somewhat-forced adoption of that wrong market system.

So, now you know that how flippant the talks of those who gathered in Davos are, whether the British economist joined it or not.


SECTION V: Warnings to the U.K.

There are two countries having worked so much unusually on the US Government in Washington DC: the UK and Israel.

They have two things in common: their sinful relationships with Islamic states and their sinful and biased view on Japan.

Aside from the concern with Japan, the two countries are more responsible than the US is to the problems in the region from Palestine to Pakistan from a historical point of view.

(Indeed, when AlQaeda started to attack the U.S., it looked like an act of Iraq, since other Islamic countries, including Iran, were historically more damaged by the U.K. Conversely, they looked like attacking a wrong party. Therefore, it is no wonder that some people suspected involvement of Iraq, a friend of the U.S. before the Gulf War but a new enemy of the U.S. after the War in 1991, in the 9/11 Terror on the U.S. in 2001.)

However, Israel can repent as they are descendants of Abraham and remote relatives of Jesus Christ.

Nonetheless, it would be difficult for the UK to repent, since they did not repent on the occasion of the death of Princess Diana with an Egyptian who happened to be a nephew of a notorious Saudi Arabian arms dealer Israel might not like at all.

The British economist should ponder the influence of the UK colonial policy and the death of Princess Diana on the mind and heart of poor Muslims.

(Now a new week has begun.

Every week we get older.

But, the words of God never get older.

And, certain news reports also cast a long shadow.

Tonight, a certain TV news program in Japan is to report on Pakistan still in the wake of the tragic death of Benazir Bhutto who was also just one of alleged grafters in the nation of so many yet-to-be-alleged usurpers and hidden armed insurgents worse than grafters.)


Appendix: They have reported on Pakistan. In addition, the Bushes are now in Africa. Secretary Mr. Rice will soon come to Japan. Indeed, something is thrilling...
