Corner of Imperial Palace (Ex-Edo Castle of Shogun)

Will She Win and If Not
Will She Win and If Not
I was embarrassed to see Mr. Anderson Cooper of CNN get embarrassed on his interview with Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton.
It was more embarrassing to see Mr. Cooper remain embarrassed after the interview.
Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton's being a future President of the U.S. is, of course, one possibility at present.
What I am afraid is that if Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton is defeated in the coming presidential election, dignity of America might be influenced, though partly, negatively.
Terrorists hiding in the Islamic world might further lose respect to their archrival, the U.S., if an ex-First Lady looses her face in real politics.
* * *
Ms. Maria Sharapova was recently defeated by Ms. Serena Williams in Australia, though Maria, an inhabitant in the U.S., has kept her ranking, No.1 among female tennis players in the world.
Maria is now in Tokyo, preparing herself for matches including one against, probably, Ms. Martina Hingis.
Maria has had many interviews by Japanese media who love her popularity in Japan.
Though she hinted, in an interview, that she thought she was more matured than other 19 years old girls due to her endeavor to be a top athlete, she carries a kind of a felling idyllic.
* * *
Mr. Michael Moore once enthusiastically wrote that he wished Ms. Oprah Winfrey to run for a U.S. Presidential election.
The only billionaire African American lady, Ms. Winfrey, is said however to have gone to South Africa to establish a girls' school.
Has he had an interview with her; or has she had ever an interview with him?
* * *
An autocracy, including the USSR, seldom allows women to lead the society, since armed forces are a core of the establishment.
But, will the fact that a lady can be the president of a nation or a billionaire appeal to Muslims?
However, a system in which young ladies can enjoy sports freely must appeal to young Muslims.
I mean the background that allows for a female President in the U.S. might be more profound than ordinary Democrats and Republicans domestically consider.
* * *
In Japan, the issue of admitting a female Emperor (or an Empress on a throne) has been a social issue for some time, though we had actually some in the long imperial history lasting almost 2000 years.
In this context, the position of the Pope in Rome might be the last challenge for ladies.

Top Creditor to the U.S.
Top Creditor to the U.S.
To: Outcasts in the World and Benevolent Women
Not-To: Respectable People Regardless of Races, Ages, and Weights
From: EE(E)Reporter
Date: January 30, 2007 (Japan), the forenoon
It was said, when the current-account deficit in the U.S. was larger than its GDP (gross national product) by 5%, that the U.S. needed more than 60 million dollars per hour as cash infusion to sustain its economy.
Now, it is said that the current-account deficit in the U.S. is larger than its GDP by 6%.
* * *
The main financing sources for U.S. economy are Japan and China who are actively purchasing U.S. treasury bonds.
As of August 2006, Japan, as the top creditor to the U.S., has US bonds worth US$672.8 billion.
China, in the second place, holds US bonds worth US$339 billion.
If Japan and China stop buying U.S. bonds and money flow is stopped, U.S. long-term interest rates will increase due to shortage of financial resources needed in every sector of its various industries.
Then, land prices will fall, business will be declining, and jobs will be lost in the U.S.
* * *
Japan has been for a very long time buying the U.S. bonds as a tested and proven financial ally.
But, China is new in this circle of money flow.
You may trust in China due to its economic success; but there are some points to be considered.
According to a source, Chinese earnings from selling counterfeits account for 8% of its GDP. Chinese counterfeits account for 60% of products produced and exported by the autocratic country.
Japan is estimated to have already lost 80 billion dollars due to Chinese counterfeits and patent infringements, or copies of Japanese original designs and idea.
* * *
Chinese economy is not tested yet (including its 1.2 billion people).
U.S. economy will face another test (including its 0.3 billion people).
Japanese economy will continue to be challenged (including its 0.12 billion people)
(However those who ask God for help will be saved.)
* * *
Jesus Christ said, "Those giving more are blessed more than those receiving more."
Now, we know that Japan is more blessed than the U.S. and China.
What really shows a majestic appearance is wealth accumulated in the Heaven but not a powerful "City" and a "Street" as well as a "Square", isn't it?
Best regards,

Reading a Saudi Arabian Editorial
Reading a Saudi Arabian Editorial
In a certain newspaper released today in Japan, a summarized editorial of a certain newspaper of Saudi Arabia was introduced.
It argued that the U.S. had invaded Iraq on false grounds; the U.S. should have had effective plans to administrate and police Iraq after its surrender; and immediate pull-out of U.S. troops would extend conflicts and battles to the entire Arab regions.
* * *
North Korea was supported by China and the USSR in the Korean War in 1950's; and thus the U.S. could not win a complete victory.
North Vietnam was supported by China and the USSR, while being linked in various negative ways with the adjacent turmoil country Cambodia, in 1960's and early 70's; and thus the U.S. could not gain victory at all.
Iraq is directly surrounded by Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, etc., each of which seems to support different party in Iraq; and thus U.S. might not be able to get any kind of victories it wishes.
* * *
Nonetheless, this time, Saudi Arabia along with Kuwait, etc. is, unlike China and the USSR in the past, actually an allied country for the U.S.
More specifically, it seems to be Saudi Arabia along with Kuwait, etc. that will decide the ultimate fate and outcome of the U.S. military operations and presence in Iraq.
It seems that the U.S. cannot withdraw its troops from Iraq, leaving Saudi Arabia along with Kuwait, etc. vulnerable under military threat of hostile parties, without mentioning crude oil to be secured against the hostile parties.
* * *
There are many opinions on this issue in the U.S. as well as in the world.
But, if the surrounding countries and warring parties in Iraq do not mind possibility of the continuation of the present situation, with scores of civilian casualties per day, further for a decade or more, I am afraid that situations would follow their will despite wish of U.S. voters, taxpayers, and consumers.
But, will U.S. citizens really accept it, as long as Saudi Arabia along with Kuwait, etc. cooperates with the U.S. in preventing occurrence of another 9/11 terror on the mainland of the U.S.?
* * *
As I happened to read a reference to an editorial of a Saudi Arabian newspaper, I have decided to leave my memo here as God wishes.
(Today, it is actually Sunday in Japan. Yet, newsapapers are delivered, programs of politics are on air, and the Internet is busy. Yes, even if I live in the country, I will have to check these out, though with half a heart on Sunday.)

Light and Gravity on Space
Light and Gravity on Space
Mankind has so far found only four types of force (gravity, the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, and the electromagnetic force), each of which causes specific interaction between entities in the universe, say an atom, an electron, and more elementary particles building an atom and having mass or charge.
Top scientists have been trying to unify all these forces and understand what happened on the Big Bang, the beginning of the universe.
My concern here is about the two among the four: gravity and the electromagnetic force.
The former necessarily works on, and is generated by, mass; and the latter is free and does not work on mass itself.
* * *
Energy of light is not interfered with by gravity.
If you shed light onto an atom or an electron, its mass does not increase. Sunshine does not increase your weight.
It is also difficult to convert mass into light, probably, except in cases such as a nuclear fusion, of which principle is applied to a hydrogen bomb, amd a collision of an electron with an antielectron.
An entity with big mass can change a course of flying light; but it is because mass can distort space in which light is flying, as predicted by Albert Einstein.
* * *
Gravity and light dos not interact with each other directly.
You cannot nullify the effect of gravity by use of light; and essentially, light is not influenced by force of gravity.
They are independent. They are orthogonal against each other.
A sheer horizontal force in space cannot interact with a sheer vertical force.
Gravity is vertical and light is horizontal, while "space" itself is a more fundamental physical element than mass and light; or rather "space" is a source of the four types of interaction in the universe.
* * *
My idea is roughly that the whole universe is made of a table-cloth type of space.
If, at one location or point on the table cloth, there is a small dent in the vertical direction, we call it mass. Moving the dent while keeping its three-dimensional shape across the table cloth needs a mechanical power due to a kind of friction.
If a small, regional, and horizontal pattern is on the table cloth, we call it light. Moving the pattern while keeping its shape across the table needs no mechanical power, since no friction happens as the pattern is just horizontally skidding over the surface like a skating on an ice rink.
Gravity is vertical, light is horizontal, and other two different forces in the universe have their own direction for interaction respectively. That is why there are four "independent" forces in the universe.
As their direction of existence on space is each orthogonal, or a kind of 90 degree crossing, they do not interfere with one another.
Therefore, there must be four "independent" directions in space of this universe, each orthogonal to one another.
(The space is "three dimensional (3D)" geometrically, but the 3D structure simply represents "one direction," or directions are over-lapped or intangible on the 3D phase of space. The geometry for these "directions" is different from the conventional geometry based on "dimensions."
Therefore, terms such as "directions," "horizontal," "vertical," and "90 degrees" are rather conceptional.)
The whole universe is a kind of a table cloth with an uncountable number of various dents (mass) vertically as well as an unlimited number of patterns (light) horizontally, which follows the relationships like the follwoing:
F(gravity) x F(light) = 0
F(gravity) + F(gravity) = 2F
F(gravity) + F(light) = F
* * *
Now, in a human psychological and social space, there are also "directions."
If you go vertically, friction is generated. If you skid horizontally, no friction is generated against people around you regardless of races and religions (though it is far better to discuss anything openly with sound passion).
In this context, we may be able to understand why Jesus Christ behaved so mysteriously after His resurrection.
He changed his mode of existence from a vertical manner to a horizontal manner, which might have allowed Him even to get through a door of a room without being noticed by His followers who were hiding in the room after the so-called His death on a cross.
* * *
Angels are living in a horizontal direction; maybe a newborn baby is, too.
Getting older, people mostly tend to become more vertical.
However, as we live in this physical space, an old thing with accumulated vertical and horizontal effects is sometimes more valuable, like in a case with wine.
(I like wine put on a gemutlich table-cloth for me to relish.)

Greeting to the Sun
Greeting to the Sun
This winter is warm.
People are afraid that Tokyo might not have snow this season.
A cold air mass from Siberia and warm air from the Pacific Ocean usually get balanced over the Japanese Islands. However, Siberia itself might be getting more and more influenced by global warming.
* * *
In the Bible, Jesus Christ in a snowy day or a rainy day is not depicted.
However, he said to get on the alert and read a trend of the world just like we predict tomorrow's weather based on a condition of today's sky.
* * *
So, let's be optimistic as the Sun looks when it greets us.

Diamond or Electricity
Diamond or Electricity
Strontium titanate is a material for making a synthetic jewel such as artificial diamond.
Nonetheless using this material, Japanese scientists have recently improved thermoelectric conversion for application of power generation.
The efficiency of thermoelectric conversion has been made twice higher than in a case of using conventional materials.
* * *
Solar batteries are a good example to get electricity without using large equipment. They convert the energy of light to electricity.
In thermoelectric conversion, difference in temperature between two locations on a piece of metal causes an electric current flow.
Without sun light, as long as you have a heat source, you can generate power for a device based on the natural law of thermoelectric conversion.
There are already a few products, such as a wrist watch, to which this technology is applied, though not so popular yet.
* * *
If heat caused by friction can be applied to a piece of metal to get current or voltage needed for an appliance, people just have to use their muscle to supply power to equipment such as an LCD TV, a mobile gear, a digital camera, and an electric bulb.
If you can use waste heat in a facility or a plant in an industry in a large scale, the thermoelectric conversion technology will provide non-nonsense electric power.
* * *
Jesus Christ said that we have to be more zealous or more unperturbed in our practice of faith (without bringing up awe of God's anger by way of excuse).
Indeed, with such a difference in a state of mind, a blue streak of lighting should run and work in and around one's presence, making the situation better and promoting improvement of a social atmosphere.
(Strontium titanate is reportedly 1000 times commoner in the nature than other materials so far used for conventional thermoelectric conversion.
It looks very hopeful for poor people and bona-fide or white investors.
Even a future U.S. President might mention it in his State of the Union message to Congress, one practice of which was broadcast live this morning in Japan and reported later widely with a focus on the approval rate of President George W. Bush as well as his greeting to the female House Speaker.)

Environment, Electricity, Emission, and Elections
Environment, Electricity, Emission, and Elections
Recently Mr. Al Gore visited Japan for promoting his movie on conservation of the world environment and prevention of green-house gas emission.
Almost at the same time, Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton announced her entry in 2008 Presidential Race.
I wonder how many people who can better serve the nation than any other incumbent politicians are in the United Sates.
An order of millions or not?

In Japan, a shock and a commotion ran Sunday night in the political community.
A new governor was elected in a certain prefecture (with a population of 1.2 million) in western Japan where a former governor had been arrested for some scandals and forced to resign.
The new governor is a middle-aged ex-entertainer who had once put a halt to his show business after some scandals and entered a university in Tokyo, his playing field, to learn local governing; then having dropped out of the university last March, he ran for the emergent governorship race in his home prefecture this January and won on Sunday night, making forecast of all the media helplessly wrong.
Other two hopeful candidates, supported directly or indirectly by the two major political parties in Japan, the Liberal Democratic Party and the Democratic Party of Japan, lost to the entertainer.
The parties have lost face as with those candidates, each a guaranteed ex-elite bureaucrat.
* * *
The TIME magazine has recently reported on Kyoto in light of environment issues. (http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1580391-1,00.html)
(The report mentions Japanese Government's "Cool Biz policy in 2005, under which offices save energy by keeping summer temperatures at a stifling 82.4°F (28°C)," which was promoted on the initiative of then woman Environment Minister whose charm seemed to nicely contribute to bureaucrats' compliance.)
This might be simple coincidence. But, Mr. Al Gore should be encouraged to pursue environment protection in the world regardless of his possible presidential candidacy for 2008.
* * *
As for green-house gas emission, people should stop burning naively fossil fuels as soon as possible, or introduce advanced technology to significantly reduce CO2 emission from power generators.
Following is CIA statistics on world electricity production ranking in https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/rankorder/2038rank.html:
No. 1 US______3,979,000,000,000 kWh
2 China_______2,500,000,000,000
3 Japan________974,400,000,000
4 Russia________952,400,000,000
5 India_________630,600,000,000
6 Canada________573,000,000,000
7 Germany______566,900,000,000
8 France________540,600,000,000
9 Brazil_________380,900,000,000
Tackling the environmental issue means to deal with the big powers in the world as well as the future great powers, most of which have a huge population.
The issue is different from managing a prefecture of 1.2 million residents based on one's experiences as an entertainer and a student, while driving out a dishonest governor.
You really need tested ability for handling the world players in the 21st century, though sometimes even devils empower man's ability.
* * *
I do not especially recommend you to invest in a certain industrial sector in a certain country for your own profits.
However, if I have funds, I will think about electricity in other poor countries.
Which, then, regardless of your religion, will you serve, God or Mammon?

A new governor was elected in a certain prefecture (with a population of 1.2 million) in western Japan where a former governor had been arrested for some scandals and forced to resign.
The new governor is a middle-aged ex-entertainer who had once put a halt to his show business after some scandals and entered a university in Tokyo, his playing field, to learn local governing; then having dropped out of the university last March, he ran for the emergent governorship race in his home prefecture this January and won on Sunday night, making forecast of all the media helplessly wrong.
Other two hopeful candidates, supported directly or indirectly by the two major political parties in Japan, the Liberal Democratic Party and the Democratic Party of Japan, lost to the entertainer.
The parties have lost face as with those candidates, each a guaranteed ex-elite bureaucrat.

The TIME magazine has recently reported on Kyoto in light of environment issues. (http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1580391-1,00.html)
(The report mentions Japanese Government's "Cool Biz policy in 2005, under which offices save energy by keeping summer temperatures at a stifling 82.4°F (28°C)," which was promoted on the initiative of then woman Environment Minister whose charm seemed to nicely contribute to bureaucrats' compliance.)
This might be simple coincidence. But, Mr. Al Gore should be encouraged to pursue environment protection in the world regardless of his possible presidential candidacy for 2008.

As for green-house gas emission, people should stop burning naively fossil fuels as soon as possible, or introduce advanced technology to significantly reduce CO2 emission from power generators.
Following is CIA statistics on world electricity production ranking in https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/rankorder/2038rank.html:
No. 1 US______3,979,000,000,000 kWh
2 China_______2,500,000,000,000
3 Japan________974,400,000,000
4 Russia________952,400,000,000
5 India_________630,600,000,000
6 Canada________573,000,000,000
7 Germany______566,900,000,000
8 France________540,600,000,000
9 Brazil_________380,900,000,000
Tackling the environmental issue means to deal with the big powers in the world as well as the future great powers, most of which have a huge population.
The issue is different from managing a prefecture of 1.2 million residents based on one's experiences as an entertainer and a student, while driving out a dishonest governor.
You really need tested ability for handling the world players in the 21st century, though sometimes even devils empower man's ability.
* * *
I do not especially recommend you to invest in a certain industrial sector in a certain country for your own profits.
However, if I have funds, I will think about electricity in other poor countries.
Which, then, regardless of your religion, will you serve, God or Mammon?

Hidden and Real Admirers
Hidden and Real Admirers
The followings are from recent articles of newspapers in Japan:
- The Japanese steel industry is enjoying the largest boom in three decades due to strong needs in China.
(China should become a pro-Japan country. It is really ages ago that Mao Tse-tung failed in boosting steel production in China after WWII, while China is now the No.1 crude-steel producer country, due to technical and financial support from Japan for decades, with 350 million tons of production followed by Japan with 110 million tons in the whole-world production of 1.13 billion tons.)
- A journalist in Turk was assassinated. His article about conflicts between Ottoman Turks and Armenians, which occurred in the late 19th century sacrificing 300,000 people, touched off a serious argument in Turk.
(Turk is a pro-Japan country. We hope that justice will be surely done in Turk.)
- Staff of U.S. Department of Homeland Security is going to be stationed in Narita Airport, Japan, based on agreement between the Governments of Japan and the U.S.
(America has been regarded as a pro-Japan country for decades. However, a certain influential writer in Japan wrote, in his well-known book, that he would never visit the U.S., for he does not like to provide his personal information, including his finger prints, for US authorities concerned. )
* * *
I hope the U.S. will become a pro-Iran country; and Iran will become a pro-U.S. country.
Energy-resource hunting China and another Middle-East potential power Turk must be highly embarrassed if the U.S.-Iran relationship gets into a real quagmire.
(From Japan to Turk through China and India as well as Iran is a kind of orthodox Asia since before the emergence of Islam, which is overwhelmingly wider and more colorful than the U.S. alone, the contemporary sole superpower.)
* * *
Japan is a pro-United Nations and pro-U.S. country.
(The U.S. is the No. 1 contributor to U.N. with US$420 million followed by Japan with US$330 million and Germany with US$150 million in 2006.)
And, Japan is a pro-Jesus Christ country or a hidden and real admirer of Jesus Christ, since there is no single respectable person in Japan who declares that he is an enemy of Jesus Christ.
* * *
Truly, even today, I have confirmed that Japan is blessed in this difficult world under globalization (with underlying forces of the so called Christianity, Islam, and Communism rooted in a knot of Judaism as a mainstream).
The issue might be how long it will last and how much more it will be given (though it is more blessing to give as much as possible).

Regrettable Victims
Regrettable Victims
(Jesus Christ said to people that unless they have never committed a sin, they should not sling a stone at a woman under an accusation to execute her.
This mandatory rule applies to any cases.
You should not stone and execute white, privileged, student athletes in any universities as well as African American young women in any professions, since the existence of such categories itself is a sin of the society which makes all the members of the society a sinner [though, to a different extent according to wealth one has].
The issue is devising and implementing a solution to nullify adversary effects of the existence of such categories in the society.
And the best solution is to understand how much the whole society, including European Americans who control the American economy, owes Jesus Christ and thus has to follow his teaching, that is, not to execute anybody since you are also a sinner.)
* * *
Now, I have remembered that the late Peter Jennings attended a court trial on the late Saddam Hussein.
Peter Jennings left this world earlier than Saddam Hussein.
* * *
There is one journalist in Japan who ventured to visit the site where the late President of Iraq had been hiding when he had been captured by US troops.
The underground, small cell was still there.
He was a notable journalist who once successfully criticized the president of NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation) for various scandals, which finally led to the president's resignation.
But the journalist sometime after having returned home from Iraq got hospitalized for surgery; he blessedly recovered and appears regularly on TV nowadays.
* * *
News coverage looks like a matter of life sometimes.
I am awfully sorry for other unlucky professionals in this field, especially, who were involved in the Iraqi War.
This is my sincere comment intended to be taken as such.

Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ
Somebody said that Jews killed Jesus Christ. They also talked about slavery.
American news programs viewed in morning business hours in Japan might not get a wide audience base; yet it must provide valuable information for those working in Japan's news sector and probably its education sector.
Yet, US religions, slavery, and gender are especially very remote issues here.
* * *
Indeed, it was reported in the Bible that Jesus Christ had been almost killed in his home town when people had surrounded Him on a cliff. Eventually Jesus Christ had walked through and left them who, driven by malicious passions, had tried to push Him off.
Then, as everybody knows, the so called high priests of the Jewish society 2000 years ago made an accusation about Him to a Roman Governor who eventually ordered his soldiers to crucify Him.
According to these reports, it seems that there were some Jews who were determined to take Jesus Christ's life but could not for specific reasons, and thus resorted to Roman army of occupation.
If majority or significant part of Jewish population then had joined the plot, they should not have troubled the Roman Governor.
Jesus Christ was not crucified under the name of the Jewish tribe which had been for generations under occupation of the Roman Empire.
The Roman Governor had a decisive power in this case, since he could have also killed any Jews at his will, including those who had made an accusation about Jesus Christ. Under the name of the Roman Empire, the Governor formally killed Jesus Christ.
It is noteworthy that some Jews who became an enemy of Jesus Christ and His followers had no capability to attack Him and His followers as well as the Roman Governor; they were absolutely deprived of armed might, probably, due to so many secret and strong followers of Jesus Christ among their tribe.
* * *
And, the present European and American civilization is a successor of the Roman Empire. The civilization has to carry the glory and the sin of its parent Empire, if a certain criterion is applied.
Following the criterion, ancestors of present European and American civilization killed Jesus Christ. (But, it is quite correct to say that mankind killed Jesus Christ.)
Nonetheless, I believe that if you had been a cool Roman Governor of Judea 2000 years ago, you would have naturally laughed at those Jews who had taken a legal action against Jesus Christ without arms, and rather provided Him with an elite platoon to protect Him.
* * *
It is a matter of the Jewish society 2000 year ago, in which Jesus Christ had decided to live as a member. We should not judge it unless we are a member of the society of the very age. In addition, behind the high priests in bad faith, there might have been some unknown pagans who are still unknown to date.
Without Jews who honestly believed in Jesus Christ 2000 year ago, mankind should have completely failed in following, praising, and honoring God.
Though the Jewish community of the age as a whole did not decide to follow Jesus Christ, some of them saved the whole mankind of future generations by believing in Him personally respectively.
Accordingly, the faith and belief in Jesus Christ became an individual matter since then, not as a religion of a race, a tribe, or a society.
* * *
Jesus Christ was killed by the Roman Governor who accepted, though he could have denied, a request by some people with wealth, social status, and religious fame rather than, say, by His countrymen. (You might as well say that rich, high-class, and religious people killed Jesus Christ.)
Consequently the Roman Empire was later forced to become a Christian Empire; the Pope in Rome even today plays a role of a Roman Emperor, on behalf of the European/American civilization, who shows his surrender and apology to Jesus Christ incessantly.
It tells who killed Jesus Christ 2000 years ago.
On the other hand, Israelites, some of whose ancestors became the first followers of Jesus Christ, are still allowed to exercise traditional rituals of their tribe completely and freely, which is the greatest reward that any tribe in history has been given by God Almighty.
It tells who did not kill Jesus Christ 2000 years ago.
* * *
My impression about all these arguments is that how Jesus Christ could keep His temper while mankind is still using his name in combination with those horrible words such as "kill."
I cannot help but hesitate to discuss, detail, and extend this issue any more unless the Lord God Almighty so wishes.
* * *
Have you ever seen Jesus Christ in your life? I suppose there are some who really have.
He seems to appear sometimes to those He especially takes a kindly interest in, which however is rarely reported in a world news program.
If you have, please report it to mankind (properly and orderly as they did in the first century).

Earthquakes, Tsunamis, and Terror from Indonesia to Turk as well as in Japan, EU, and the U.S.
Earthquakes, Tsunamis, and Terror from Indonesia to Turk as well as in Japan, EU, and the U.S.
Early in the morning on January 17, 1995, a great earthquake hit a western part of Japan, sacrificing around 6,000 precious lives.
One author described that the damages of the Kobe City reminded him of US air bombardment in WWII.
On January 17, 1994, the Northridge earthquake occurred in California, sacrificing precious 57 lives and injuring 5,400 people.
On January 17, 1991, the Persian Gulf War began.
* * *
We do not know when a great earthquake will hit Tokyo in future.
We did not know the day and hour when the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990 began and the large-scale terror on the mainland of America in 2001 started.
Nonetheless, there is no excuse for us; we have to enhance preparedness for potential disasters as well as efforts for comprehensive peace with parties and countries concerned.
* * *
On September 29, 1993, an earthquake killed 10,000 people in southern India.
On May 10, 1997, an earthquake killed 2,000 people in eastern Iran.
On February 4, 1998, an earthquake killed 4,000 people in northeastern Afghanistan.
On May 30, 1998, an earthquake killed 5,000 people in northern Afghanistan.
On August 17, 1998, an earthquake killed 16,000 people in Turk.
On January 26, 2001, an earthquake killed 20,000 people in western India.
On December 26, 2003, an earthquake killed 30,000 people in Iran.
On December 26, 2004, an earthquake and tsunamis killed 300,000 people on the Sumatra Island, Indonesia, and other Indian Ocean coasts.
On October 8, 2005, an earthquake killed 100,000 people in Pakistan.
On May 27, 2006, an earthquake killed more than 5,000 people on the Java Island, Indonesia.
From Indonesia to Turk, Muslims have been suffering severely beyond imagination of citizens of advanced countries.
They also suffered terror such as Bali bombings in 2002 and 2005, Istanbul bombings in 2004, and Mumbai bombings in 2006.
* * *
Those incidents seem to have been coincident with terrorist movement in those areas and actual acts of terror in target countries as well as related operations by countries concerned including the U.S.
It is not only a continental draft of the Indian Subcontinent toward the north, pushing up the Asian Continent and building the Himalaya Mountains, but also the lack of help and support to prepare for disasters that should be perceived.
If the U.S. and EU continue to leave and neglect Muslims in those disaster-torn regions in tragedy, anything horrible, I am afraid, such as terror might be directed, in the worst case, to them as they experienced in the US East Coast in 2001, Madrid in 2004, and London in 2005.
You have to read and comprehend holy codes hidden in the above historic record of disasters in the regions that may be potentially more concerned with US and EU security than Iraq is.

"MUHAMMAD ALI: His Life and Times" Symbolizing Situations
"MUHAMMAD ALI: His Life and Times" Symbolizing Situations
"MUHAMMAD ALI: His Life and Times" by Thomas Hauser, published in 1991, was translated into Japanese and divided into two parts, each of which is sold separately.
I recently bought its second part, consisting of 441 pages including foot notes, at 1200 yen (US$10), which was renewed for pocket editions in 2005.
It would cost more if we buy an original and imported version of the book written in English.
Most of Japanese people read famous American books in their Japanese versions for various reasons, including prices and difficulties in reading English.
* * *
One interesting report contained in the book is that one of close associates of Mr. Muhammad Ali once said, before a match, that a Muslim was for the first time in history going to fight a Christian on the ring. And, Mr. Ali won.
The issue is whether this kind of facts on Mr. Ali has had significant influence on young Muslims all over the world up to this day.
* * *
It is not so very rare to spot African Americans in Japan, partly due to existence of US military bases in Japan. Generally speaking, they look like well respecting the Japanese society.
Perhaps they could see the difference in various human aspects, such as distinction between a Christian and a Muslim among their races which Japanese cannot easily.
* * *
My belief is that God admits Japanese as he does with Christians and Muslims regardless of their races.
Besides, if the ancient Persian Empire had defeated the ancient Greek Coalition, there would not have been Alexander the Great as well as the Roman Empire; and thus neither European dominance nor discovery of New Continents by Europeans.
Therefore, my belief is that God admits Japanese as he does with European Americans and African Americans regardless of their religions.
* * *
Mr. Muhammad Ali is still very famous in Japan, mostly because he symbolizes super success of an individual in whatever profession, especially in America.
Or, whatever race or religion he belongs to, worldly success itself might matter to most of Japanese.
Conversely, whatever race or religion a saint belongs to, spiritual authority itself might matter to most of Japanese.
If God is pleased with Japanese and Mr. Muhammad Ali, we assume that there are no problems between Japan and African Americans, and Japan and Muslims.
(In conclusion, we have to symbolize something valuable to succeed even if God promises our success.)

Japan's Supertanker Hit by USS Newport News at Hormuz for Prophecy
Japan's Supertanker Hit by USS Newport News at Hormuz for Prophecy
The USS atomic-powered submarine Newport News (6,000 tons, 110m) hit the Japanese super-tanker Mogami-Gawa (300,000 tons, 333m) at Strait of Hormuz of the Persian Gulf on January 8, 2007.
In the worst case, it could have resulted in a large scale of oil spill in addition to a disastrous fire on the sea, which might hamper navigation of tankers delivering crude oils to the world market.
(The Mogami-Gawa, one of three or more tankers passing through the Hormuz straits specifically to Japan per day, was carrying an amount of oil equivalent to a half of that consumed per day in Japan.)
This incident instantly reminded me of the collision between a Japanese fisheries-high-school's training ship named Ehimemaru and the USS Greeneville, of the same class as the Newport News, that occurred off the Oahu Island, Hawaii, on February 10, 2001, taking nine Japanese lives.

"...no one remembered the passage of the book “Moby Dick” written by Herman Melville just before the Civil War:
"Grand Contested Election for the Presidency of the United States",
"WHALING VOYAGE BY ONE ISHMAEL",
"BLOODY BATTLE IN AFFGHANISTAN",
which should be read as:
"In 2000, Grand Contested Election for the Presidency of the United States",
"In early 2001, WAILING VOYAGE BY THE EHIMEMARU ",
"In late 2001, BLOODY BATTLE IN AFFGHANISTAN",

And, actually as prophesized, though regarded as by chance, the War on Terror has been still going on, taking many lives of various parties and nationalities.
The speculation on the recent naval incident is that the USS Newport News was then being dispatched to the sea area off Somalia while US fighter-bombers were attacking an Al-Qaeda base in the civil-war-torn country.
Nonetheless, Somalia is not the only focus in this context; we are inevitably aware of presence of Iran near the Strait of Hormuz.

In the story of “Moby Dick,” Captain Ahab of a whaling ship Ishmael got on board was chasing and pursing the white whale called Moby Dick.
It may be read as Arabs are aiming at the "White House," in which a president nicknamed "W" resides and a vice president called "Dick" works, while "Islam" and "Israel" are involved in a historical context.
And, to make the long story short, Captain Ahab and his companies finally failed in killing Moby Dick while the whailing ship was destroyed by the gigantic white whale, and one Ishmael alone got rescued by another ship.
It means, as a prophecy of my version, that Arabs attacking the White House would finally fail and their organization would be destroyed; yet, the nation Israel and the great religious community Islam will survive.

But, most astonishing thing is that this revelation was brought with the Ehimemaru tragedy near the Pearl Harbor in early 2001, reminding us of the lightening strikes of Imperial Japan's Navy on US Navy fleets, in the naval port in Hawaii, 60 years ago.
Subsequently, Washington D.C. and the New York City were attacked in the kamikaze style by some Arabs on September 11, 2001.

Early this year, again, a USS submarine hit a Japanese ship.
This time not off the Pearl Harbor, but it happened at the strategically most important strait in the world: the Strait of Hormuz of the Persian Gulf.
However, no injury and loss of life as well as leakage of oil were reported.
Yet, we have to take this as another warning from Heaven.
Both the U.S. and the Islamic Republic of Iran should take it as such.

The name of the tanker damaged, though minor, "Mogami-Gawa," is taken from one of famous rivers in Japan. The meaning of Kanji characters used to express "Mogami-Gawa" is the best and top river.
The flow of crude oil from the Middle East to Japan should not be interrupted and stopped by any military operations by the U.S. and the Islamic Republic of Iran, which might be the warning from Almighty God and Allah after all.
You should not interrupt and stop any holy missions now being carried out and delivered here and there.

The USS atomic-powered submarine Newport News (6,000 tons, 110m) hit the Japanese super-tanker Mogami-Gawa (300,000 tons, 333m) at Strait of Hormuz of the Persian Gulf on January 8, 2007.
In the worst case, it could have resulted in a large scale of oil spill in addition to a disastrous fire on the sea, which might hamper navigation of tankers delivering crude oils to the world market.
