(Tokyo, indeed)Yesterday and Days Before
(Hier et jours avant)
I saw a pond nearby frozen almost all over its surface, 200m long, the day before yesterday.
I once gave a sparrow a humble lump of rice I was eating there, sitting on a bench looking down on the pond, as the tiny bird looked like a young mother that could not find food for her baby birds, since she flew away straight over the pond (and to her nest without eating it herself) when she caught her favorite white rice in the middle of the air as I just threw it up with my chopsticks near to her hovering space.
SECTION I: News Caster Flown to Europe
Last week, a certain news caster of Japan's NHK TV was absent.
I wondered where she took her vacation in this nonsense season.
I though she must be gone to America, since she graduated from a university in America, though fairly long time ago.
But, this week she has been presenting her interviews with some notable Europeans from Europe.
So, I realized it must be the Davos Forum that basically made her take a business trip to Europe.
However, there is a rumor in a certain knowledgeable community in Japan that an Euro bubble will burst sooner or later.
The dollar is getting weaker; Euro will lose confidence; and thus indeed Japan's Yen might be appreciated this time appropriately and justly.
One more thing, the former prime minister of Thailand is said to be staying in London. In Thailand, a party supporting this former prime minister won the recent election held in the aftermath of coups. But, there is a doubt in a certain knowledgeable community in Japan as to why British media would not report corruptions and criminal acts the former prime minister had been involved in during his reign in Thailand.

All I can say to Ms. Hiroko Kuniya is not to believe the Davos Forum and the British Government, because they will sacrifice Asia or abuse Asians in order to continue to be rich themselves.
It is because they still live with the paradigm of the colonial period.
SECTION II: State of the Union Message
A Japan's Fuji TV news program pointed at the fact that President Mr. George Bush did not mention North Korea at all in his address in the Congress.
Recently, words of Saddam Hussein in an interrogation by the US Military were released. I do not believe that Saddam Hussein spoke honestly or US officers honestly made the contents open.
When Mr. Bush took office in the White House seven years ago, there was a line of anti-Israel and anti-Saudi Arabia nations: Syria, Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan.
After seven years in office, President Mr. Bush has succeeded in subduing Syria, defeating Iraq, restraining Iran, and controlling Afghanistan.
This is a brilliant success from a military point of view.
As a proof of his feats, not only Israel and Saudi Arabia are enjoying peace of dream but also Dubai and other Persian Gulf States are enjoying extreme prosperity, even bolstering the Wall Street in New York.
Very, very ironically, President Mr. Bush realized unthinkable peace and prosperity in the Middle East so far, though the President could neither capture Mr. Osama bin Laden nor bring him to justice while sacrificing a million Iraqi and Afghan people as well as thousands of US and allied officials and soldiers.
(Can "President Hillary" capture Mr. Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice?)
I hope that President Mr. Bush will add one more feat by making a peace treaty with North Korea, so that North Korean people will need no more dictatorial government.
Anyway, I really like to focus on Jerusalem and Mecca, and not much on Beijing where there are still no real democracy and freedom of thoughts and religions.
SECTION III: Because, Because I...
Q: Why are there so many unhappy people in this world?
A: It is because the glory of God will appear through their prayers to God asking for His help and mercy.
Q: Why are there so many victims in this society?
A: It is because the glory of God will appear through their prayers to God asking for His help and mercy.
Q: Why are there so many tragic incidents here and there?
A: It is because the glory of God will appear through prayers to God the people concerned will deliver asking for His help and mercy.

As the US Presidential Election campaign is getting heated up, more and more Japanese media people will fly to America for coverage.
However, I believe the center of the world is here.
The sun, the moon, and all the glorious stars are above my head.
All I wish is the Army of Heaven descend to destroy devils and demons rampaging on the earth like a simple moral play or a fairly tale story of a never-never land.
And then, the Vatican will learn how to read the Revelation of St. John the Divine, the Apocalypse, in the most pious manner to the Lord.
(If you go to London and Paris for a media coverage job, you don't look nice there, provided that you are 100% Asian.
You had better, Mlle., try to show the glory of God or European Civilization if you can, say, in Tokyo or Taipei.)
