was mr. booth available for questioning?

Although concious, with 2 shots to the chest, odds are low he will survive.

I read that he had stopped breathing on the way to the hospital. It was some home built gun, too.

"Japan’s former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was shot during a campaign speech Friday in western Japan and was airlifted to a hospital but he was not breathing and his heart had stopped, officials said."

What's the betting they're going to go through this nutter's browsing history and find instructions on how to make a home made gun?

Cowardly little prick.

Abe is a major force in Japanese foreign policy.

Bad news

It is world news. No Asia specific news.

Before the war , Japan had a history of political assassinations.

Mr Abe had some awfully unpopular economic policies like money printing on a scale unseen before. It was most likely because of that.

Righto

The shooter in the red circle.

**Backspin** · 09-07-2022, 03:08 AM

Allegedly the weapon. This is disputed though. Police say it was a home made "shotgun"

**Backspin** · 09-07-2022, 03:16 AM

Sad day. Abe and Putin were close and working hard for better relations with each other.

Telegram link to footage. There's one shot that misses him completely. He should have moved right away. But he and his bodyguards just kinda stand there until the second shot comes. The body guards are supposed to run directly to him and soon as anything happens. They didn't do that.

Japan isn't even in your Asia, is it?

Nara is one of the most unlikely settings imaginable for an assassination.

Asphyxiation from the pong of all the deer shit would seem more likely.

So, the guy was upset with Abe because his mum got into some religious sect . . . nothing to do with Abe.

Sucks, the guy was good.

Harsh but fascinating reaction from China on Abe
