(A Multi-Billion-Pebbled Coast, Japan in August)Did the 2004 Great Earthquake of Indochina and Indian-Ocean Tsunami have any influence on Mr. Barack Obama then?
Today or so, Japanese Foreign Minister Mr. Katsuya Okada is to visit Indonesia after his diplomatic missions to Afghanistan and Pakistan.
People might have laughed when I went out to check a gulf region hundred miles west of Tokyo, lest I should miss any sign of a coming great earthquake in the Tokyo area, since a big earthquake had hit the gulf in August. And then, another great earthquake hit Indonesia and another great tsunami hit Pacific islands recently, almost simultaneously.
Anyway, for Japanese politicians to fly out and check Asia is meaningful nowadays.
SECTION I: American Christianity-Judaism Complex
If the God is concerned with mankind, He must be more aware of the historical fact of mass-murders of six million European Judaists in and before WWII than any other Judaists of the era and today.
So far, the establishment of the nation Israel seems to be one answer from mankind to the God who seems to be waiting for mankind to present any answer to the question about the so-called Holocaust.
Yet, another one must be the "American Christianity-Judaism complex" after WWII which has been so found in the American society to date.
An example on the Judaist side:

American Judaism
Since the end of World War II, there have been enormous changes in American Judaism. For a whole generation that came of age after 1945, the Holocaust and the creation of the State of Israel were the two defining events. Even today, studies show that most American Jews believe memorializing the Holocaust is one of their most important obligations.
Many feel that remembering the Holocaust is more important than participating in synagogue services or celebrating the Jewish holidays...
...Religion is seen as a matter of personal choice rather than an inherited obligation. Many people are looking to Judaism to provide them with existential meaning. They hope that their participation in religious experiences will enrich their lives by uplifting their souls.

An example on the Christian side:

Judeo–Christian concept in American history
...It is only since the 1950s that the term "Judeo–Christian" has been applied to it, reflecting the growing use of that term in American political life. By some the term is used casually, simply as a commonplace term, or as an inclusive synonym for the religious. Others, including for example Prager, argue the term is appropriate in its own right, capturing a distinctively Old Testament dimension (though not necessarily that of Judaism) in the Puritan character of early American Protestantism.

Put simply in my humble way, the more American Christians become Judaistic, the more American Judaists can live a safe and secured life, each.
The more American Judaists look Christian, the more American Judaists can live a safe and secured life.
SECTION II: Review on Germany under the Weimar Constitution
Around 1925, German Judaists accounted for less than 1% of the German population.
But, one in nine medical doctors was a Judaist;
one in six lawyers was a Judaist; and
Judaists accounted for 31% of all the rich people in Germany then.
When Hitler was elected as premier, there were six million unemployed in Germany.
In June 1935, there were less than two million unemployed;
In April 1937, there were less than one million unemployed; and
In August 1939, there were only 30 thousands unemployed in Germany.

If all the Judaists in Germany before 1930's had been poor or poorer than Christian Germans, there might not have happened the so-called Holocaust, in principle.
However, the Rothschilds found that their extravagant fortune could launch them into the sphere where no religion matters in England, especially among the noble class, since the 19th century.
SECTION III: American Rich Men; British Rich Men; Catholic Rich Men
Will a very poor Judaist reject aid from non-Judaists?
Will a very poor Christian reject aid from non-Christians?
Will a very poor Muslim reject aid from non-Muslims?
There is the ground zero where no religion works in terms of its independence and uniqueness.
And, the opposite is also a reality.

I watched tonight a memorial program rebroadcast through a cable TV provider about Walter Cronkite.
So, that is the way it is.
Good night, good luck, even after 3 a.m. at a bar (since it is now near 1 a.m., Thursday, of Japan Time here)!
Luk 10:13 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
Luk 10:14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
Luk 10:15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
Luk 10:16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
Luk 10:17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
