Japanese Folk Singer Wins Parliament Seat AP - Sun Jul 11, 1:33 PM ET / TOKYO -A peace-loving, flower-wielding Japanese folk rock star who campaigned against the war in Iraq claimed a parliamentary seat Sunday --- one of the more unorthodox victories for Japan's largest opposition party in the national election ..."Trade all weapons for instruments. Turn all military bases into flower gardens. Let's have festivals, not war," Kina said at a music hall where he held a concert after being notified of his victory. Supporters in rainbow-colored dresses with peace slogans celebrated as others threw a sweaty, smiling Kina up into the air.
