Talk:Hideo Murai
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
this article is in need of a serious rehashing. interesting as it may be, it has some major weak spots. i already changed Nikola Tesla's name, but there are some spots that i found questionable at best, but have no way of checking and if need be, correcting. one is the outrageous claim that the symbol of the japanese imperial family is david's star. as far as i know it's the cherry flower. granted, this may be seen by some non-japanese as similar to a david's star, but this is something a japanese person would never see as such, in my opinion. so, suggesting that by mentioning jews the man had in mind the japanese imperial familiy seems like something a not very educated conspiracy theorist might come up with. number two: to my knowledge, the japanese are next to oblivious to the jewish people and while they may be a lot of things, anti-semitic is definitely not one of them. so the whole anti-semitic remark schtick seems a bit far-fetched. another minor quible: is there any particular reason the satelites supposedly suggested for AUM's cosmic-mega-death-ray-device-thingy are called sputniks and not just simply satelites? 213.172.246.57 20:57, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
I totally agree with the former commenter. The Imperial family davids star connection I have never heard myself either, and it is not mentioned on the Japanese entry. This seems like a very weak theory. And while the previous commenter is essentially correct about the Japanese in reguards to anti-semitism, Aum were heavily into conspiracy and could have meant the "Jews". But the real problem is that this entry is out and out wrong about the final words Murai left. He did not say one word, and the words he left are open to interpretation. He said "ユダにやられた。。。”(Yuda ni yarareta) which could mean "The Jews got me." or it could also mean "Judas got me". Which could suggest an often rumored connection between Aum and the Yakuza. What Murai might have been trying to say was that he was betrayed. -- Schopenhauer7 06:42, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
