Tokyo’s 78-year-old governor Shintaro Ishihara is at it again, calling the recent tsunami a “divine warning” whilst his cronies openly fantasise about him becoming the Prime Minister of Japan.
At his latest public address Ishihara refrained from repeating his “divine punishment” theory of earthquake causation, for which he has already been forced into apologising for, instead cunningly restating the same thing with different words:
“I think this earthquake is a ‘divine warning’ to the Japanese people.”
After he finished his speech, the 80-year-old manager for his previous campaign (who apparently sees no problem using his background as a civil servant and cabinet disaster management specialist to intervene in election campaigns) helpfully weighed in:
“I hope he becomes the Prime Minister. Kan won’t go yet though, so he’ll have to serve as Tokyo governor for the meantime.”
In previous statements he insisted age was no barrier to hanging on to political power, saying he saw no problem with an 82-year-old governor or even a 100-year-old PM.
In other news, Ishihara’s recent efforts to get the year’s hanami festivities cancelled have been attracting official censure, with the government’s minister for energy conservation stating that “the use of authority to restrict free and social activity should be kept to an absolute minimum.”

I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Since when having thousands of casualties is called a "warning"?
Fire a warning shot, across her nose.
A few seconds later - I said across her nose, not up it!
Clearly god has bad aim.
"Since when having thousands of casualties is called a "warning"?'"
More times than I can count during the course of human history, even modern recent history holds examples of extreme use force as a "warning".
Since America dropped the first atomic bomb as a "warning" to Japan.
Ah, it seems like the troll is alive and well today masturbating at gay pron.
Ever heard the expression "Kill one, warn a hundred"?
I don't even know who's dumber anymore, the politician or the people backing him up. I mean, human stupidity has a limit and this guy just proved them wrong.
You, Ishihara, GTFO
i wonder if he would have said the same thing if he had lost family member in the tragedy
I don't think any family member of his would want to be seen related to him.
Ishihara would probably say that they must have deserved it, just like the Japanese peoples
What family? He's a living fossil who managed to outlive his parents, siblings and relatives ffs.
His son has been mentioned in another article.
He's on it again?
If he becomes the PM, I'll throw away my life organizing an Ota Qaeda group just for the sake of assassinating Ishiharacrite
AND I SHALL KILL YOU TO STOP YOU!
AND I SHALL KILL YOU TO STOP YOU FROM STOPPING HIM
=)
i hope this will end his career. fucking hypocrite.
Did the Dimona Dozen Murder the Fukushima 50?

Ishithara-sensei is right.
The quake was a divine warning about what happens when you vote for fucktards.
And I hope if he actually became the PM candidate, there will direct 'divine warning' for him.
A well said this old fucktard should die
somebody should really end that old man's life. Spare us misery and his death may prevent more disasters
He has made his pact with mr. screwtape on the bodies of otakus and old cronies~ So be warned!
+
Murder will only make him stronger and more cranky than Ever!!
Get me a gun and a plane ticket to Japan. I'll do it myself.
@chad001
I'd like to see you smuggle a gun in "not-even-cops-are-allowed-guns" Japan.
Shut up you phony "tough guy". Go back to your dark narcissistic hole and continue to stroke your dick. You wouldn't do shit.
Yep, I thought so too. I think this was a warning to people to NOT vote for Ishihara again.
You don't know disastrous situation about candidates of Tokyo governor!
1.Ishihara - 1st and 2nd term were good, but in 3rd(this) term he went crazy. dementia?
2.Higashi - best in this season, probably he or Ishihara will win.
3.Watanabe - President of food corporation.
4.Koike - Communist
～Following are members for comedy～
5.Taniyama - I don't know he want to do.
6.Akasaka - "Smile!" that's he said in his manifesto
7.Hurukawa - "I aim to drive out Chinese and Korean from Japan."
8.Sugita - "Electromagnetic wave is very dangerous, BAN using Compass!"
9.Toyama - you should see this video

Rests are too troublesome to explain.
To rid an evil, a greater evil is necessary but evil itself shall remain in this vicious cycle.
My country has a famous phrase like this:
"Even if you burn down our country, our people will still fight."
In this case:
"Even if you burn down the whole country, the stupidity remain"
"If I get elected...
They will be terrified.
I will be terrified!"
Japan seems to be turning into a stereotype of America.
The problem seems to be that some people mistake Election with Erection.
He has a deep hatred for Handicap people,homosexuals, and possibly Jews what does that tell you a stereotype of another historical figure?
Somebody get rid of this cockmongler all ready. \
If I were allowed to vote, I'd go with Koike. Yes, communism is a deeply flawed ideology, but at least it favours international cooperation not only between corporations.
Satan is just letting him do as he wishes, he doesn't want another politician in his realm
One good thing about old assholes trying to run for office: Pray that they die of natural causes sometime soon. I'm at least glad he's not some young, 20 year old political prodigy..
This is why stupid people shouldn't have kids
nah. So long as their brains are at least efficient enough to follow and perform simple instructions, stupid people could make for a decent labor force. What they shouldn't do is encourage their kids every time they think they can become president.
(;_;) that picture is more scary than a photo of him
What exactly does he mean by "divine warning"?
Is it the Shinto gods warning for abusing nature?
Is it Buddha calling people to live modesty?
or is it the Christian God calling people to become Christians?
No... its Allah's warning to infidels...
or Yahweh warrning for antisemitism?
or a Ahura Mazda warrning for.. you got the picture.
or maybe it's Cthulu and the Old ones.
Warning because Japanese were eat Dolphin
-say one of Green Peace God
Thankfully, most people realize that all those things don't exist and just 'go through the motions' of appearing religious to stave off arguments.
well, it can't be Haruhi. Otherwise, he would've spontaneously combusted the moment he talked shit about otaku (and gays, which would, by extension, include bisexuals such as herself).
In an optimistic and sane way, one could say it's telling the people that they shouldn't vote for this kind of idiot again for the future, for he does nothing other than doing bans and being a total 100% douche over a recent disaster.
I still say that the Anime and Manga gods are angry at Ishihara and they caused the earthquake
A warning that says "If you slow down with the production of anime and shit, you will get crushed!"
