From the TV screen, showing NHK TV news (national) in Japan about an hour ago. Shows Kelly of State Department. Top story in Japan everywhere, even with the reunion yesterday of Japanese who were kidnapped by North Korea but returned (some after 25 years) to Japan to visit temporarily....not quite "flash!" but VERY dominant, the the US is hurredly pulling together Seoul and Tokyo for allied talks on how to handle this developing situation.
