Cutting off your finger to spite your hand?

There's a bizarre twist on an old proverb in the Japanese news today, with some right-wing nutter apparently sending a finger and a threatening letter to a Korean resident's group.

Yes, it was the RWN's own finger - and he was identified by his fingerprints :-)

I suppose it must be time for a post on the recent goings-on in the Japanese political scene...

This somehow reminds me of the story about the inept Mafia enforcer who left a horse's ass on his target's pillow.

So, is anyone in Japan selling little stuffed plush finger-shaped pillows?
