Here's the one of the cover, hopefully.

The caption right above Obama says:
"Those wars that everybody thought something was wrong with"

Sure I did, or rather, I knew they were all wrong.

Mr. Terashima is chairman of the foundation Japan Research Institute:

http://www.jri.or.jp/e_guide.htm

Here's his profile, but Japanese only.

http://www.nissoken.jp/rijicyou/profile/profile.html

He spent most of his career working for Mitsui, including 6 years 1991-1997, as head of their office in Washington D.C. He worked in Mitsui's New York office from 1987-1991.

Mr. Terashima was at the Brookings Institution for a year in 1983-1984.

According to his Wikipedia article, Mr. Terashima is generally known as pro-U.S., but made some anti-U.S. statements during the Bush Administration.

Mr. Terashima was also a visiting professor at Waseda University's Institute of Asia Pacific Studies

I first thought he was chairman of this organization.

But it is a corporation. I don't know if the JRI consulting corporation and Mr. Terashima's non-profit research institute are linked, but the shareholder of the JRI corporation is the Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group.

All this is just meant to show that Mr. Terashima is very much a mainstream figure, and also that he probably understands English and knows the U.S. very well.

Thank you Chihaya!

P.S. I think your use of the word "yarase" - which means staged news - is interesting and correct. The media is most culpable, for selling the bogus official story and then not seriously reporting doubts raised about the bogus story.

I think "9/11 was a media hoax" is a better soundbite than "9/11 was an inside job." I doubt that the media produced the show, but at some point early on, many media people had to know that what the media had and was continuing to broadcast and report as real news was a bogus story.

"That war everybody thought didn't make sense"
(above Obama's image)

"The importance to contemplate and review 9/11 reasonably"
- Jitsuro Terashima, Honorary Chairman of Japan Research Institute
http://www.jri.or.jp/e_guide.htm <-Cover doesn't have this URL. It's FYI

"Instead of cheap line of conspiracy view of history, it is vital to pursue facts with patience in order to not wash up the modern history as mystery.

"There are attempts in the world to analyze and examine the era voluntarily. It is requisite when living in the complex time of manipulation of information to think using your own head while paying attention to those attempts."
