wikileaksにシーファー元駐日アメリカ大使の、原田会長へのインタビューがリークされています。

私のつたない英語力では十分に理解しきれていないかも知れませんが、最後の方の文章では、原田会長は笑いながら「(湾岸戦争時、婦人部を説得できたように)創価学会の統率力は今や疑いをもつ内部の人間を説き伏せることが可能です。」と述べていると思います。英語力のある方、合ってますか?そして、この原田会長の発言はかなり問題があると思いますが、どう思われますか?

Soka Gakkai has once before had to deal with staking a position related to international peacekeeping efforts.  At the time of the Gulf War, although Komeito was then in the opposition, it nonetheless supported the decision for Japan to make a multi-billion dollar contribution.

Harada explained, with a laugh, that Soka Gakkai (SGI) leaders had explained to the rank-and-file that there were SGI believers in the U.S. Armed Forces, and that some U.S. warships had Buddhist alters for SGI worship services, a fact that persuaded most to drop their opposition to aiding the United States.  In the same way the Women’s Bureau and others were convinced of the need to make an international contribution during the Gulf War, today’s Soka Gakkai leadership will be able to win over doubters within its ranks, Harada predicted.
