Wow, the Japanese media do not exercise the slightest restraint in regard to reporting on the 5 abductees. Yesterday, I've watched a news report on TV. Camera teams literally occupy their homes, follow them to shrines, temples and family reunions, no tear escapes them. Makes British media look pale in comparison!

Wonder why now that their stay is only for 2 weeks?
With so much coverage and scheduling (getting over due high school diplomas and what not) they could easily slip up and ruin the chances of coming back to Japan with their families for good.
