..."This year, among the Kochs’ aims is to spend a projected four hundred million dollars in contributions from themselves and a small group of allied conservative donors they have assembled, to insure Republican victories in the 2018 midterm elections. Ordinarily, political reporters for Time magazine would chronicle this blatant attempt by the Kochs and their allies to buy political influence in the coming election cycle. Will they feel as free to do so now?"...

Message from the Japan Council against A & H Bombs (GENSUIKYO)

With thanks for your condolences: Gensuikyo calls for donation to victims.

Dear friends,
Thank you very much for your warm messages and support to us. Your messages are of great encouragement to us and all victims of the disaster. We have translated your messages into Japanese and passed them on to the victims and all Japanese people.

The damage caused by earthquakes and subsequent tsunami is so horrible. All
buildings were swept away. Thousands of bodies are found every day. The
number of those dead and are missing is expected to be more than 11,500.
The evacuees have increased more than 450,000. They are forced to stay at
shelters with not enough food, water, cloths, oil for heaters and gas for
cars, etc.

In addition to that, the frightening accident of Fukushima power plants is
threatening the safety of people and their uneasiness is growing.

The municipalities and citizens of the damage struck areas have so far given
strong support to our signature campaigns for abolition of nuclear weapons,
our peace marches and the World Conference against A and H Bombs. We have
to help them when they are suffering.

Japan Council against A and H Bombs (Gensuikyo) set up an account and called
on Japanese people to donate to help the victimized people and areas.
