The following are some additional tidbits about this:

1. The North Korean Rocket overflew the Akita Prefecture in Japan.
2. Our Lady of Akita is also known as "Our Lady of All Nations"
3. Pope Benedict was involved in the approval of the messages and investigation into the verification of the "investigation of the statue"
4. One aspect of the message is for people to embrace "poverty" and pray... (Current economic conditions and direction?)

I will also post an image of both the statue and the painting of Our Lady of All Nations.

I believe you are mistaken about the appellation “Our Lady of All Nations.” That was an apparition in the Netherlands in the 1940s and 1950s to a woman named Ida Peerdeman. The painting you have posted at #3 is that of this apparition. The inscription at the top of the picture says “The Lady of All Nations” in Dutch.

Here are a couple of websites concerning this apparition:
