I’m really sad about this death. He was one of the few good guys in world politics.
Will he commit seppeku?
The only way this killer pulled it off was by making a homemade gun, which is possible to work at close range, like a pipe gun. This is an incredible rarity at all, assassination of a political figure, in Japan.
Yes he was. I was astonished his security didn’t protect him from behind where he was speaking. NO bullet proof or metal back board. Guy just shot him from behind. Most leaders of the world have a go between so they can’t be shot from behind them. Just a sad loss to the world.
