Fukushima; Killing Us Softly With His Love. Does Anybody Care?
Statement by the Press Secretary, Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Japan, on the situation in East Jerusalem
February 10, 2011
Japanese
1. The Government of Japan is concerned about the Jerusalem municipal planning committee’s approval of a plan to build housing units for Jewish people in the Sheih Jarrah of East Jerusalem. Such act goes against the efforts by the international community to resume the negotiations.
2. The Government of Japan does not recognize any act that prejudges the final status of the territories in the pre-1967 borders nor Israel’s annexation of East Jerusalem. Japan urges Israel to refrain from any unilateral act that changes the current situation in East Jerusalem

Exchange of Notes for the Grant Aid for Environment and Climate Change to the Palestinian Authority (Jericho Wastewater Collection, Treatment System and Reuse Project)
February 28, 2011
Japanese
1. The Government of Japan has decided to extend a Grant Aid for Environment and Climate Change (Jericho Wastewater Collection, Treatment System and Reuse Project) up to 2.65 billion JPY (2,650,000,000YEN) to the Palestinian Authority. Notes to this effect were exchanged on Monday, February 28 (the same day at local time) in Ramallah in the West Bank, between Mr. Naofumi Hashimoto, Representative of Japan to the Palestinian Authority, and H.E. Dr. Salam Fayyad, Prime Minister, Palestinian Authority.
2. This project aims to construct a sewage treatment plant with a resource-circulative system, which contains Japan’s advanced energy-saving technologies, in Jericho and Jordan River Rift Valley area where serious environmental problems have been caused by untreated wastewater staying therein due to its geographical features. It will make effective reuse of the treated water as a valuable water resource for irrigations over the area. Through implementing this aid, it is expected not only to improve the living conditions and hygienic environment of those local residents who have been threatened by the soil and ground water pollutions caused by the foul wastewater, but also to contribute to a rise in the agricultural production over the area. Furthermore, as these Palestinian efforts to preserve the environment and the ground water resource would also benefit such neighboring countries as Israel which shares the same ground water vein, this project could eventually help the confidence-building between the Palestinians and the Israelis.
3. In order to support the overseas expansion of Japan’s advanced technologies for environment and energy-conservation, the Government of Japan is making efforts to disseminate and promote such technologies in developing countries through its FY2010 supplementary budget. This grant aid is part of such efforts by Japan. At the same time, it also demonstrates Japan’s overall support for the efforts of the Palestinian Authority to achieve its own state-building and its economic independence toward co-existence and co-prosperity with Israel.
(Reference) The Palestinian territories cover a land area of 6,020 square kilometers and has a population of approximately 3.76 million people (2005). Its Gross National Income (GNI) per capita is about 1,230 USD (2006).

So Japan makes an official statement condemning Israeli settlements and supporting the Palestinian state and they commit to aiding the Palestinians with a water project and then 29 days and 11 days later respectively their country experiences a huge earthquake and a tsunami–water disaster. These are the facts, I will allow you to make your own conclusions.
Did you see the signaled city and distance? Let me help you see it, ask yourself the question; Why was there a blue Mustang driving down the road that appeared right after the words “There are warnings that cannot be ignored.”
BTW: I gave a heads up to look out for a big quake at that time;
When I think of Japan I also remember Joe Brandt’s dream. Here is an excerpt from a post about it; Will California Sink into the Ocean—An Analysis of Joe Brandt’s Dream.

Here are a few excerpts from the dream that I would like to call your attention to;
I remember, vaguely, the fall from my horse—Blackie. As I lay there, pictures began to form in my mind—pictures that stood still. I seemed to be in another world…I thought about Hollywood Boulevard, and I found myself there. Whether this is true, I do not know, but there were a lot of guys my age with beards and wearing, some of them, earrings. All the girls, some of them keen-o, wore real short skirts…
I noticed there was a quietness about the air, a kind of stillness. Something else was missing, something that should be there. At first, I couldn’t figure it out, I didn’t know what it was—then I did. There were no birds…I saw a newspaper on the corner with a picture of the President. It surely wasn’t Mr. Roosevelt. He was bigger, heavier, big ears… I wondered if I went into a movie (since nobody could see me) if I’d like it. Some cardboard blond was draped over the marquee with her leg six feet long…
It was ten minutes to four. Something big was going to happen…More like early spring…There was a funny smell. I don’t know where it came from. I didn’t like it. A smell like sulphur, sulfuric acid, a smell like death. For a minute I thought I was back in chem…It was five minutes to four on a sunny afternoon… The ground shook, just an instant. People looked at each other, surprised. Then they laughed. I laughed, too. So this was what I had been waiting for. This funny little shake. It meant nothing…
There was that smell again, coming up from the ocean. I was getting to the 5 and 10 store and I saw the look on the kids’ faces. Two of them were right in front of me, coming my way. “Let’s get out of this place. Let’s go back East.” He seemed scared.… One young lady just sat down on the sidewalk all doubled up. She kept saying, “earthquake, its the earthquake,” over and over….
Then, when it came, how it came. Like nothing in God’s world. Like nothing. It was like the scream of a siren, long and low, or the scream of a woman I heard having a baby when I was a kid. It was awful. It was as if something—some monster—was pushing up the sidewalks… But then I saw the streets of Los Angeles—and everything between the San Bernardino mountains and Los Angeles. It was still tilting towards the ocean, houses, everything that was left…. I knew it was going to happen to San Francisco—it was going to turn over—it would turn upside down. It went quickly, because of the twisting, I guess. It seemed much faster than Hollywood…
When I looked at Grand Canyon, that great big gap was closing in, and Boulder Dam was being pushed, from underneath. And then, Nevada, and on up to Reno. Way down south, way down. Baja, California. Mexico too. It looked like some volcano down there was erupting, along with everything else. I saw the map of South America, especially Colombia. Another volcano—eruption—shaking violently. I seemed to be seeing a movie of three months before—before the Hollywood earthquake. Venezuela seemed to be having some kind of volcanic activity. Away off in the distance, I could see Japan, on a fault, too. It was so far off—not easy to see because I was still on Big Bear Mountain, but it started to go into the sea. I couldn’t hear screaming, but I could see the surprised look on their faces. They looked so surprised. Japanese girls are made well, supple, easy, muscles that move well. Pretty, too. But they were all like dolls. It was so far away I could hardly see it. In a minute or two it seemed over. Everybody was gone. There was nobody left…
Approximately 3 months later—California Mega earthquake.
