Japan's Supreme Court has upheld the government's blanket surveillance of the country's Muslim community.

The court struck down the second appeal by Japanese Muslim plaintiffs against what they perceive as an unconstitutional invasion of their privacy and freedom of religion.

A 2010 leak of 114 police files revealed nationwide surveillance of Japanese Muslims. The files revealed that Muslim places of worship, halal restaurants and Islam-related organisations across the capital, Tokyo, were being monitored.

Japanese know how to do it. Good for them. All Muslims are questionable.

They don’t get that much in the way of terrorism, do they? At least since they shut down Aum Shinri Kyo (sp?).

“There ar like 2-4 of them.”

Perhaps, but it only takes 1 muzzle to kill dozens. One is more than enough, much less than 2 or 4.

“How did Japan become infected wit this disease anyway?”

Leftist saw they were happy and prosperous, so introduced elements that would end the happiness and prosperity. They had to be slow and quiet because since Japan has brown people the general population are allowed to be against destructive foreign influences without racist punishment, so they had to use the boiled frog approach

Between 70,000 - 100,000 Muslims here . 10% of that number native Japanese.

Mostly from Asian countries such as Indonesia, I'm guessing.

I thought Japan didn’t allow any of them in except for a short period of time - and when it was time to leave Tokyo made sure they left.

But at least they’re realistic about the threat.

Bruce Willis - the man’s a stud, no doubt about it.

Maybe he should speak at the upcoming convention along with Mike Ditka.

Exactly what we need to do in this country. If they start feeling intimidated enough, hopefully they will LEAVE the country and go someplace else where they are appreciated.

A lot came in during the labor shortages in the ‘80s, when the Japanese ignored the influx of illegals from South America and South Asia. If they kept their noses clean, nothing was done.

Sharia and Jihad are unconstitutional, both in Japan and in the US.
