対イラク武力行使

Hello, Riverbend-san. (I forgot to explain the "-san" following your handle name. "San" is a customary courtesy title used in Japan for both males and females.)

I read your "The Red Cross and Terrorism" dated Oct. 29 and introduced the entire text (except the last sentence) in Japanese on the forum of which URL I gave you in the previous message. I'm sorry, but have to say that what you wrote in its last paragraphs sounds a bit horrible to me.

In another message, I also wrote why American corporations such as Halliburton and Bectel have won contracts for Iraq reconstruction, and why the Japanese government does not try to persuade the U.S. to make arrangements so that Iraqi companies can win such contracts directly, although Iraqi people are capable of, for example, managing oil or constructing building and bridges by themselves (which is based on what your have written in your blog).

I'm an ordinary Japanese citizen who cannot help you, but please do remember that I also love to live an ordinary life, like you, and that I respect you for continuing to write your blog.

Keep in touch. And wish you safe and peace!

Sincerely,
