Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe suffered cardiac arrest after being shot in the chest during a speech, and the suspect was arrested

Japanese have regained their assassination tradition.

Zero sympathy. All scumbags eventually meet their ends...

He didn't deserve to die, at least not like this. This will only make him a martyr and rally the right wing nutjobs.

If Abe dies in 2020, he will indeed become a hero of Japan's right wing. But now it's not.
Because of the collapse of Japan's economy, many Japanese right wingers ask Shinzo Abe to be responsible for the failure of abenomics(happy dispatch).

安倍晋三死的好，总算有人替天行道干掉他了

Don't forget he once posed for a photo in trainer jet with number "731". That’s the unit number of an infamous Imperial Army group that conducted lethal chemical and biological warfare experiments on Chinese citizens.

After the collapse of Japan's economy this year, Japanese right wingers have been clamoring on the Internet to hold Shinzo Abe responsible for the failure of abenomics (hara-kiri). I guess the killer may be the Japanese right wing or the CIA.

Nonsense. Japan economy is still ok, worth 5 trillion something USD. Exports rising, imports rising. Japan biggest enemy is shrinking population. If they can stop it or slow down then would be fine. Compare these metrics to your best friend Russia. Putin’s country is collapsing.

This thread is actually very informative

Heard of Shinzo Abe but never knew about him

This is wrong today. Very serious economics trouble since last month.

Yen drop and trade deficit rise. Very very big trouble now. This 2 events should be mutually exclusive. If China not helping Japan, Japan could become a poor country with 1-2 decades.

Japan runs biggest trade deficit in more than 8 years in May

Japan ran its biggest single-month trade deficit in more than eight years in May as high commodity prices and declines in the yen swelled imports, clouding the country's economic outlook.

Yen drops to fresh 24-year low vs U.S. dollar

The Japanese yen plunged against the U.S. dollar on Tuesday to its lowest since October 1998, as the Bank of Japan's ultra-loose monetary policy was in stark contrast to an aggressive Federal Reserve determined to stamp out soaring inflation.

Did you know that Shinzo Abe was a pro China faction when he became Prime Minister for the first time, and he was an active advocate of economic integration in Northeast Asia (a treaty between China, Japan, South Korea and Russia on trade in their own currencies).

Later, several Hong Kong Independence elements suddenly ran to the Diaoyu Islands to insert the Chinese flag, domestic public opinion in China and Japan quickly turned to opposition, and the process of economic integration in Northeast Asia was inexplicably destroyed.
Shinzo Abe also resigned for the first time. Shinzo Abe became an anti China faction when he became prime minister again.

What made him switch policies?

Was there ever a pro-China faction in power in Japan? Are there any right now?

Hatoyama is pro Chinese faction. He is hated by US.

There is pro Chinese faction but Japan is US colony. US controls Japan.

Don't you know that today Japan's GDP per capita is lower than South Korea and Taiwan? Maybe in the next 20 years, China or even Vietnam would surpass Japan's GDP per capita.

Can someone give the shooter a pic of Nawaz, Zardari, Mullah Diesel????....

The yen is lower because money goes to the US. The US lending rate is higher, the yield is higher. People look where more money can be made from money. That’s expected. Same with the euro. The euro is weakening. Nothing with the health of economy per se.
The key problem is the central banks in Europe and Japan can’t afford to raise interest rates, at least not now.
Yen, euro or dollar is much like bananas. When people buy more bananas the price of bananas starts rising.

The alleged shooter was a former member of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (Japanese Navy) and used a "home made gun" to carry out the shooting. This is really tragic, also please stop sharing the photo of Abe Shinzo injured. Could a moderator please review this thread.

Thank you.
