対米全面テロ

ＡＦＰ通信「日本は国民のみならずマスコミも人質に冷淡で同情せず」

世界屈指の有力通信社であるＡＦＰ通信が「日本は国民のみならず、マスコミまでもが自国民の人質に冷淡で、彼の運命に同情しない」と痛烈に皮肉っている。この記事は当然、世界中に配信された。

ＡＦＰ通信の記事では、読売新聞と朝日新聞（言うまでもなく日本の二大新聞である）の社説が引き合いに出されている。

Newspaper editorials showed little sympathy for Koda. The best−selling Yomiuri Shimbun wrote:

"The naivete of just one person could deal a serious blow to the democratization and reconstruction process in Iraq."

The Asahi Shimbun, which opposed Japan's support for the US―led invasion of Iraq, said it understood that Koizumi had to reject the militants' demands.

TOKYO, Oct 28 (AFP) − Japan raced against the clock Thursday to free a young Japanese hostage in Iraq but had little reason for hope hours before the deadline set by al―Qaeda―linked kidnappers for his killing.

With few leads on the whereabouts of 24―year−old Shosei Koda, who had reportedly gone to Baghdad as a tourist and searched in vain for a hotel, the government mounted a diplomatic drive for help and information.

We are making appeals (for help) to foreign governments and Iraqis who have expressed understanding for Japan, but the situation is very obscure, Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi told reporters.

We can only continue our efforts, he said.
