.....tortured Bobby Fischer at Narita

[Taro Toporific]

...Bosnitch will file an appeal for Bobby (who he has visited several times in the B4 level at Narita Kuko) just before midnight Friday, Hanakeen!, yeh!, in order to play a trick on the Jgov people so that they cannot deport Bobby quickly today if they reject his appeal, which 100000% they will do. So he will deported on Monday, after everyone in Japan goes to church on Sunday and prays to Lord Jesus.

Told you all, this story has legs. Had legs. Losing steam day by day.

Japan Extends Deadline for Fischer Appeal
(AP) - Jul 30, 8:27 pm
Japan's immigration officials granted chess legend Bobby Fischer an extension Friday to appeal a deportation order to the United States, a supporter said....
That deadline was extended to Monday in order to give Fischer time to prepare the necessary documents, his supporter, John Bosnitch, told The Associated Press by telephone.
"Mr. Fischer is going to fight this unlawful detention all the way," Bosnitch said, after visiting Fischer at the detention center to review the case with him.

Bobby's butt-buddy John Bosnitch to the rescue

This story really has legs now! Never ending story.

googlism:

The New York Times purposely promotes anti-Serbianism
*John Bosnitch*, Bureau Chief of Tokyo's InterMedia Center News Agency, says that Western media coverage of the Yugoslav civil wars is not only unfair and biased, but is also the product of broadly coordinated efforts to promote anti-Serbianism through the media. The New York Times plays significant role in this anti-Serbian campaign.

New York Times = World Jewish Conspiracy = Serbia = Bobby Fischer = ?

Does anyone's elevator go all the way to the top anymore?

[torasan]

On another forum in Japan, Mr Bosnitch explained his motivations in handling this case. It makes a very interesting read and turns him into a kind of political freedom press conference hero. Also a bit paranoid and rabid anti-American, but hey, who loves the USA anymore?

I wonder if the media will pick up on this CONFESSION:

He wrote it, he signed his name. I have much more respect for the man now.

No "handle" needed for straight talk
by John Bosnitch (post on Jul 31 2004 - 22:48 )

I have often wondered why people prefer to take "handles" to communicate in forums like these. I tend to think that if a person has something to say that is worth listening to they should be prepared to put their name on it. In any event, I have come into this discussion to clear up a few misconceptions...

NOw it all fits into place, as discussed above, earlier here:

AFP is reporting today that Bosnitch, who is Serbian Canadian -- EUREKA MOMENT! -- would not confirm a weekend report by Belgrade radio that Fischer had decided to go to Serbia-Montenegro, if allowed to a third country.

But Bosnitch said: "I can tell you that Bobby Fischer likes Serbia-Montenegro and that he would be pleased to go there." OF COURSE! CONNECT THE DOTS, EVERYONE!

The radio station quoted Bozidar Ivanovic, chairman of the Montenegro's Chess Association, as saying Fischer had *decided to opt for Serbia-Montenegro. STILL CONNECTING THE DOTS?

"I think we have moral obligations to help Fischer. He was punished because of our country. His decision is a compliment, not only in a chess or sports' world, for Serbia-Montenegro." CHECKMATE!

-------------------------

AP saying the same: CONNECTING THE DOTS FOR ALL OF US:

On Monday, an adviser to SERBIA-Montenegro's president, Filip Vujanovic, said the central European nation was willing to offer Fischer a safe haven.

SERBIA-Montenegro will have a positive attitude toward a request by the former world champion for asylum here,'' Radmila Buric said.

Bosnitch said the announcement was expected. SMILE!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!

I initiated it, so it comes as no surprise,'' Bosnitch said, adding that he and other Fischer supporters had contacted several'' countries. SMILE!

The story has legs, wobbly legs, and will end this way:

Fischer will be deported, in handcuffs, from Japan to .... the USA. [The handcuffs will be removed once he boards the US air carrier taking him to North America.]

He is not going to Germany, he is not going to Serbia-Montenegro, he is not getting asylum in Japan, other than mental asylum maybe.

This entire thing is a joke, a charade, a laughing hyena of a media story.

Fischer will be deported sooner than later, when all his appeals dry up. He was on the run for many years, he done got caught. Now must pay the price.

Serve some time. Do some penance. Get a new life.

He will survive.

Go Bobby! Prepare for the worst!

Booby Fischer is now gonna spend YEARS in B-4 boobyhatch basement of Narita.

Fischer appeals for refugee status in Japan, complicating deportation process
Kyodo
Tuesday August 3, 1:48 PM
Chess legend Bobby Fischer, who has spent three weeks in an airport detention cell, is seeking refugee status in Japan in hopes of thwarting his deportation to the United States, his supporters said Tuesday....
The statement said Fischer's lawyer, Masako Suzuki, has also filed a new appeal to Japan's justice minister to overturn the decision to deport the former world champion. An earlier appeal to immigration authorities was rejected....
In her appeal, Suzuki argued that "the political nature of the U.S. persecution of Fischer makes him eligible for refugee status in Japan," the statement said.
"Appeals to the justice minister usually take no less than several weeks and often run into months," the statement added. "Refugee claims can take years. There is now no likelihood of any quick deportation if Japanese and international law is respected."

Seeing that Koizumi and bush are in cahoots they will probably reject it...




....even tho there is a justifiable case w/ no justifiable means to reject it.

Has anyone done a little digging into Mr. Bosnich's past? I wonder if this is the same John Bosnich who, when President of the University of New Brunswick Student Union, forced the UNB administration to take over the affairs of the Student Union because Mr. Bosnich had installed himself as a student dictator, and was appropriating student funds? Bosnich and his followers actually donned black arm bands at one point - hard to believe in a sleepy little part of Canada in the mid-eighties. At one point Bosnich ran for Mayor of Fredericton and almost won. I remember him speaking at a Canadian Federation of Students Conference in the late eighties in an attempt to portray himself as the victim of UNB's actions - he started his speech with a weird biblical quote which I can't totally remember, but I do remember thinking that the guy was psychotic and scary. Anyway - there's a thread to pull on - good luck!

Yep that would START to explain of these rantings of his in which he claims to be an exile from Canada(???).

...May I ask if any of my fellow members in this forum have ever taken any public political stand at all that made them exiles in their own homeland, cost them their jobs, or exposed them to a lifetime of character assassination in the media? No? I did not think so. I am in Japan because I was expelled from my university for my political views and because, by stroke of fate or destiny, I was subsequently the key witness to a major case of police brutality in the city of Montreal, Canada. I had a choice: keep quiet and be able to stay in Montreal, or testify, put the police in prison and have to leave for my own survival. I testified. I have never regretted the decision, just as I will never regret this decision to help Bobby Fischer. The human spirit, when free, is the greatest gift of God]john.b@imcnews.com[/email]

Ex-Chess Champ Fischer Renouncing U.S. Citizenship
08/06/2004 - 16:52. World News
TOKYO (Reuters) - Former world chess champion Bobby Fischer, wanted by Washington for defying sanctions on Yugoslavia, plans to renounce his U.S. citizenship, a lawyer working his appeal against deportation from Japan said on Friday...
...In a handwritten note made available to the media, Fischer, 61, said the U.S. government and "U.S.-controlled Japanese government, working in collusion and in a criminal conspiracy, have illegally confiscated and illegally physically destroyed my perfectly valid in every way U.S. passport."

The letter, copies of which were made available to the media, added: "As a result of the above-stated criminal act, as well as innumerable other vicious crimes against me by the U.S. government, I no longer wish to be an American citizen."
Fischer's lawyer Suzuki told a news conference he would likely become a stateless person for some time and that his supporters would try to have the office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) register him as a refugee.
Suzuki said Fischer phoned the U.S. embassy in Japan on Thursday and conveyed his intention to renounce his citizenship.
But renunciation of his citizenship cannot take effect until he has met a U.S. consular official and conveyed his intent in person, she said. ....

Has any of this been in the media here in Japan?
Have not seen anything on the news about this at all which, is rather unusual considering the former status of the guy.

Not much mention in Japan since last Monday because there's no real news...just legal briefs going nowhere fast.
But hey, check out the babe lawyer Bobby's got.



TOKYO, Gettyimages.com /JAPAN: Masako Suzuki (L), chess master Bobby Fischer's lawyer, speaks to reporters during a news conference in Tokyo, 06 August 2004 while John Bosnitch (R), Representative of the Committee to Free Bobby Fisher, looks on.

Bobby Fischer, being held in Japan, said he is renouncing his American nationality

If we are to believe 'reports' Bobby Fischer first appealed his detention, then appealed his deportation, then he applied for asylum in Japan, then he applied for asylum in a third country (Serbia??)

Now he is going to renounce his nationality. However fact of the matter is he's still in detention and others are holding press conferences and getting their photos in the newspapers. I can't imagine what's going to happen next.

Just my opinion but I think Mr. Fischer should get himself some less photogenic 'counselors' and do something about getting out himself of the pokey.

I hear from a least two good sources the Japanese Government just wants this all to go away (think Paul McCartney) ASAP so 'someone' should be taking advantage of that fact.


NB I can't resist mentioning that the in this thread we were told how it was impossible to hold someone longer than 23 days in Japan because

the current law and is very clear. There is nothing to more confuse the issue.

Bobby Fischer passed 23 days this week but he did not pass GO. He did go diectly to Jail.

He's still there.

[torasan]

The US Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 stipulates that Americans wishing to renounce their U.S. citizenship must sign an oath of renunciation in the presence of a diplomatic or consular officer.

The oath reads: "I hereby absolutely and entirely renounce my United States nationality, together with all rights and privileges and all duties of allegiance and fidelity."

The renunciation must take place in a foreign country, and
***** MONEY QUOTE HERE

the State Department reserves the right to reject the citizen's attempt to ditch their citizenship.

The oath must also be signed in person, so the three-page letter that Fischer has sent to the U.S. Embassy isn't good enough.

Nor would it be enough for one of his representatives—say, someone from the Tokyo-based Committee To Free Bobby Fischer—to show up at the embassy and sign the required documents.

How To Renounce Your Citizenship
Slate - Aug 6

Fischer saga update
08.08.2004 /Chessbase NewsThe 11th world champion is still under detention in a Japanese airport. With a deportation appeal pending, Bobby Fischer's latest gambit is to renounce his US citizenship. We have a round-up of the latest developments in this confusing and confounding case.

[torasan]

Fischer could face long detention in Japan

Reuters is now reporting that ...

... it is likely Fischer would be kept there [a new detention centre 30 miles northeast of Tokyo, a larger facility] for some time and would not be deported imminently. "I think immigration is eyeing a long-term stay. ..." he pretty lawyer told the media.

Of course! The detention facility at Narita is just for short term stays (kukei) and the room down on B4 level is just big enough for about 12 guys. It's not a longtime facility.

So they are moving Bobby to this new place, today, not the notoriuous Tokyo Detention Center, KOSUGE, but a different place for detainees. There, Bobby will have access to sunlight, windows in the his cell, a sento once a week, better food and no second hand smoke in his face 24/7. Also there is an exercise yard there for inmates, er, detainees, so he can get some physical exercise three times a week.

To get to the new place, Bobby will be roped and chained to a guard, and then once on the jail bus, his hands will be handcuffed to the bar on the seat in front of him, and he will remain roped to the guard who is with him. This is so that Bobby will not run away, you see.

In the new place, he will have his own cell, some might even call it soliatary detention. Let's see what his handlers say about it!

===============

reuters:

Fischer will be moved from the detention centre at Narita Kuko to a larger facility some 50 km northeast of Tokyo later on Tuesday.

...immigration officials did not disclose the reason for the transfer, but .....going by past cases it was likely Fischer would be kept there for some time and would not be deported imminently.

"I think immigration is eyeing a long-term stay. It would seem natural to keep him at the airport if they were thinking of deporting him soon," the cute fetching woman lawyer said.

Lock him and throw away the key so the Japanese government can use him as a bargining chip with the bonehead Jenkins.

Bobby Fischer Held At Guantanamo Bay
Reuters, UK - 8 Aug...Japan has an Extradition Treaty with the USA which requires them to hand over anyone sought by the authorities. The Americans were slightly peeved that the Japanese did not detain Fischer but bound and gagged him, put him on the next available flight locked in the toilet with a note "this is yours I believe", pinned to his chest. ...

So now Mr. Fischer is going to add 'marrying' a Japanese to the now almost laughable list of 'gambits' he has been 'advised' to try.

1 - Appealing his detention
2 - Appealing his deportation
3 - Applying for asylum in Japan
4 - Applied for asylum in a third country (Serbia??)
5 - Renouncing his nationality.
6 - Marrying a Japanese

And after this one is laffed out of court what's next....oh yes of course

7. Applying for Japanese citizenship

And after that....well there's really only one thing left...
