Dear Mr Rense,
 
Thank you for posting my email yesterday ( http://www.rense.com/general53/BBCliedagain.htm), todays news amplify what I wrote you yesterday.
 
I would like to update you that now more Japanese people feel that a government hit-squad assassinated our Journalists. The reason is in the enclosed report below.
 
The question that many Japanese are asking today is: When every Iraqi knows that he could get one million US dollars for every Japanese, why would any Iraqi kill the Japanese?
 
Thank You,
