Shinzo Abe was shot at a political campaign event and died soon after:
Mr Abe was shot at twice while he was giving a speech in the southern city of Nara on Friday morning.
Security officials at the scene tackled the gunman, and the 41-year-old suspect is now in police custody.
A search of the alleged gunman’s home uncovered what police believe are explosives, local media reported.
Speaking before Mr Abe’s death was announced, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida condemned the attack, saying: “It is barbaric and malicious and it cannot be tolerated.”
“This attack is an act of brutality that happened during the elections – the very foundation of our democracy – and is absolutely unforgivable,” Mr Kishida said.

After the political malfeasance of the last 30 months, the damage done to peoples’ businesses, occupations, mental health, emotional, spiritual and physical well-being, the persistent, unreasonable, unjustified mandates, censorship of meaningful discussion etc, It’s a little surprising some desperate nutter hasn’t done this earlier to any of the ruling despots.
It occurred to me that the assassin might have had Schwabbie connections. Considering that Japan did things differently in recent years with respect to “immigration” and, as I recall, the phony plague, Abe might have been killed as a warning to other politicians to allow the WEF to “penetrate” their government, or else.
Yep. Japan wasn’t playing ball. Also, notice the coincidental timing with the resignation of the British Blond Buffoon. Guess the NWO wants a changing of the guard in some countries, so time for a little house cleaning.
Let’s hope that Kishida is made of stern stuff.
I’m sure Justin, who sadly remains alive, will screw up condolences and send an envoy to China, itself relishing the death of Abe:

Anyone doing precisely that…in this Country.??
I wouldn’t call a him//her a nutter – I’d call him/her A PATRIOT..!!
Apparently a home made gun. Imagine that.
Which Democrat or Liberal will propose banning metal pipes?
“Which Democrat or Liberal will propose banning metal pipes?”
– Don’t give them ideas. I mean, we could be more closely following the U.K., which tabled a law banning batleths…
And when that doesn’t work, on to banning exothermic chemical reactions.
I suppose that’s better than killing everyone on stage with a ricin attack
Or 3D printers
‘It is barbaric and malicious and it cannot be tolerated.’
Liberals are telling me that this only happens in America and is an act of Right Wing White Nationalist.
And I know he is not a TRUMPER.
I’ve been wondering when stuff like this would begin.
Bad news, metal pipes are already banned in Canada. The definition of “firearm” in section 2 of the Criminal Code includes “…anything that can be adapted for use as a firearm.” That old bike frame in your garage? Firearm. Spare piece of black iron pipe from having your gas hot water heater changed out? Firearm. If that sounds like an insane degree of overreach, welcome to firearms regulation in Canada.
Is a Muslim-Canadian’s bike frame exempt? Asking for your PM …
No, but an AK-47 from a Muslim Métis is exempt.
Japan has strict gun control.
Sorry Dems and Libs….there goes the narrative.
If you build it, you can shoot.
Hmmm, a home made gun! I wonder if the ammo was also home made as well. No matter what they ban and outlaw, a determined person will find a way if so inclined.
Humans have been making all sorts of “stuff” for millennia, a chemist could figure our how to make the bang stuff and if they have a friend that happens to be a plumber……
I’m neither, but I could make a double barrelled black powder firearm in short order….if so inclined.
Japan is a group of islands, and I’m sure there is no crime or smuggling in such an uptight nation. Also that Yakuza mafia thing is a kiddies bedtime story.
As to the comments about the WEF having a hand in the assassination, truthfully, I’ll be surprised if they didn’t, the same with a number of African leaders, and other big wigs recently. The WEF are heading into their end game.
