Security on high alert for Aya Ueto show after death threat on Wikipedia
Quote:
Security will be tight at the Zepp Tokyo live house in Koto Ward on Monday night, after someone wrote a death threat on actress Aya Ueto’s Wikipedia page on Thursday. Someone made an entry titled “I’m going to throw a hand grenade at Aya Ueto’s show on Aug 31” at around 3 p.m. and police received a few calls shortly after.
The entry, which warned that many people would be killed, was deleted about 20 minutes later.
It has been more than two years since Ueto, 23, has performed live. Organizers said they will go ahead with the “Happy Magic 2009” event but increase the number of security personnel.

This seems very serious.
Perhaps, it is better for Ueto-san to cancel her show as that her safety is more important.

"The cargo was deceptively labeled," said a diplomat "The cargo manifest said that the ship contained oil boring machines. But then you opened it up and you found these arms."

Looks like the Obama Administration should put North Korea back onto the terrorism-sponsor list as that this recent action by North Korea is no doubt a violation of UN embargo.
