from "Voice" of ASHAHI SHIMBUN newspaper (16 Mar. '03)
"NO WAR !"written by Okiteru IWASA, sports trainer in Osaka
Is rigorousness such a thought? On 4th Mar. "oppose to the military
power attack against Iraq by Jakucho Setouchi (Buddhist nun and famous
author)." The opinion advertising of four steps of our newspaper ASAHI
SHIMBUN has jumped into my eyes. At the time of the Gulf War, I shaped
up to feel about whether the religion person of advanced age should be
damaged so far by her fast". Here was found to be such a severe posture
over war (homicide). Prime Minister Koizumi, do you know the misery of
war? Did you learn it? I went to see the photo exhibition of the nuclear
weapon of "Peace Osaka", and looked at the photograph of the
boy who gets leukmia caused by the degradation uranium cartridge which
the U.S. used during that Gulf War, in summer last year. It is on the boy
who medicine has not been offered as a result of the economic blockade,
either, has his hari removed, and lies with the emaciated body that a lot
of missiles would fly again. It should not be allowed at all. I was hospitalized
at the time of the Gulf War. Then and there I saw the doctors and nurses
working day and night devotedly in order to save only one patient's life.
On the other hand, even a missile slaughtered a lot of people. That thought
made me unable to stay further. We must respond to Jakucho's shout. I think
that it means accepting war, if we still are silent. I will sign, go to
gather and sue my opinion opposite to the war, and contribute a paper or
Senryu (the shortest satirical and humorousl poem in jp) to a newspaper. |
