If the Japanese police authorities had any brains, and could think 'pre-emptively', they would recruit foreigners living in Japan to infiltrate the Mosques and find out through counter intelligence just who among the Middle Easterners / Crescent community is getting prepared for acts of violence in Japan.....

A Japanese would be spotted more easily. A foreigner "interested in Islam" would blend it better and could penetrate these supposed 'cells' in Japan and help shut them down quickly, or a least cause suspicions and make it more difficult for them to gather.

I have always thought Japan should use 'good foreigners' in Japan to uncover, combat and expel 'bad foreigners'.

As some old timer 'good foreigners' in Japan read this forum, I am sure they are just as disgusted with me about how recently arrived 'bad foreigners' have been ruining the place and helping cast doubt by Japanese on all foreigners.

If they had an ounce of brains they'd be dangerous . Totally useless as you undoubtedly know . Japan definitely ripe for a terrorist attacks , and you know it is going to happen in Tokyo or Yokohama .

Generally speaking I think Caucasians in Japan are not looked upon as dangerous or suspicious .
