When we evacuated Afghanistan we left them with weapons, money, and 5000 imprisoned ISIS members. We gift-wrapped the country and gave them everything they wanted on their wishlists. So now there are 5000 ISIS members that are free to roam the globe and cause havoc where they see fit. Japan may very well have heard a threat from these recently freed ISIS members, so they warned their citizens to stay away from western establishments as they were warned about a possible suicide bombing happening soon. They could have spread that message to more than just their own citizens…
“On Monday, Japan’s Foreign Ministry warned its citizens against possible terror attacks in six Southeast Asian countries – Singapore, Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Myanmar. They encouraged its citizens to avoid crowded places and any “Western-owned” facilities such as hotels and restaurants, and religious sites.
According to the Japanese ministry, it had obtained information that “there are increased risks such as suicide bombings.”
The advisory caused confusion in several of those countries. The embassy said in a statement, “We issued a warning to alert Japanese people residing in some Southeast Asian countries, but we cannot disclose the source.”
“Tanee Sangrat, spokesman for Thailand’s Foreign Ministry, said Japan had not revealed the origin of the warning and that the Japanese Embassy had no further details other than to say it was “not specific to Thailand.”
Thai security agencies have no information of their own about a possible threat, said deputy police spokesman Kissana Pathanacharoen.
Similarly, the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs said it was not aware of any information about an elevated threat level, while Indonesian Foreign Ministry spokesman Teuku Faizasyah denied that any warning was even sent to Japanese citizens there.”
That seems like a threat that should be shared with westerners too since they seem to be the target of the attack… But I don’t blame Japan for putting the safety of its citizens first. If only Biden could learn how to put his fellow countrymen first.
