“Japan to extend Afghan mission despite slaying”
by Kyoko Hasegawa
Thu Aug 28, 10:00 AM ET

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “TOKYO (AFP) - Japan said Thursday it planned to extend a controversial mission backing the US-led “war on terror” in Afghanistan, a day after Taliban extremists killed a Japanese aid worker in the war-torn country.”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “”Right now each country is increasing its efforts to counter terrorism and bring domestic stability,” chief government spokesman Nobutaka Machimura told a news conference.

“If Japan leaves the battle line, it would go completely against the moves of the international community,” he said.”
