Following are complete and unedited copies of communications sent between April 3rd and April 16th [[2005]] by [[The Family International]]'s leadership to all [[Home|Family homes]] in [[Japan]], regarding recent media interest in the [[cult]] in Japan. Indications point to this series of ''"Timely Persecution [[All Homes Message]]s"'' or ''"Persec AHMs"'' having continued on an almost daily basis after April 16th, as well. These communications were intended strictly for internal use, and were distributed in a series of emails using military-grade encryption algorithms, as all communications from Family offices and leadership. They have never before been released to non-members of The Family International. Among other things, they address media interest by the following organizations in Japan: * [http://www.nwj.ne.jp/ Newsweek Japan] * [http://books.bitway.ne.jp/kodansha/friday/scoopengine/ Friday magazine] * [http://www.japantimes.co.jp/ The Japan Times] * [http://www.tbs.co.jp/eng/ Tokyo Broadcasting System] (TBS) * Asahi Geino Some of the content below is only available in Japanese, and as the editors of xFamily.org have not yet had it translated, we do not know everything these files include.
