Calling the heads of state of the world's leading nations 'terrorists' is simply immature.

That's only a point of view.

That's so clever. Not.

well, as you said earlier... Can't have it both ways...

These leaders might be well educated, wear fancy suits and be able to talk with panache (though one of them only scores in the fancy suit department), but the fact of the matter is that a…

The action is intended to prevent terrorists...

I can hardly see the point since at least a couple of them are going to be guests of honour anyway...

Maybe what Kyodo really means by 'terrorists' is activists. The police want to protect the terrorists from the activists. ; )

More security cameras have been installed in Hokkaido, with the Sapporo city government increasing their number for the municipal subway network and newly setting them up at water distribution facilities while the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism also installed more than 20 cameras along national highways around the…

And if we don't do something really really soon it's just going to get worse and worse. In fact, the evil CO2 could even increase terrorism in Africa :)

I wonder whether the cops used provocateurs to stir up trouble and, by doing so, give their colleagues an excuse to crack down on the protesters. This tactic makes the normally peaceful activists look violent and gives them a bad image from the public's point of view.

Not supporting the global warming crowd almost puts a person in the same camp as the holocaust deniers. The green movement has been hijacked and any worthwhile campaigning they do is now compromised by the gloom and doomers/profiteers.

It's funny that the global…
