Alright, I'm dealing with the main people involved in this case.
Those guys on the clip were in japan, this prison in the background is in Chiba, outside Tokyo, so part was maybe edited, but they were in Japan.
I was in Tokyo myself at a hearing, and quite a few 'uninvited' people were present.
To set up such a video, I guess you have to be well connected in the jewish media world, which doesn't mean that someone is straight. I'm sure Avraham Fried etc did this leshem shomayim, however interesting to note that going to this songs website, you are asked to pay to one specific guy...
The people busy on the job (yidden part don't earn a penny), one with whom I'm very befriended with is a choshuve yingerman with some 10 kids which he left behind for the 24th time to go to japan, despite the travel advisory suggestion not to travel there.
He was also on top of the charity, where they need more then one signature to take money from the account.
For instance those Japan-song guys, are not paying any of the bills, so what are they doing with the money?
Once there was an add in usa paper for people to donate miles for the cause -not initiated by the official askanim-, and as far as I remember the case did not benefit from it.
The part to cry is when people get approached by the honest askanim, and they show a receipt that they have donated huge amounts to the case already.
Who has the heart to say: Sorry dude, your money went elsewhere...
