Hideo Kojima assassinated Abe - Dark Jaguar - 9th July 2022

Well, no, not really, but apparently a lot of news orginizations took a random picture of a Japanese guy (In this case Hideo Kojima) and put it up claiming THAT was the man who assassinated Shinzo Abe.  It wasn't.  It was someone else, and that man's motives are as yet unknown.  Apparently he constructed his own gun.

It's an unfortunate situation, and of course pointless to kill someone who isn't even Japan's current leader any more.  Apparently this person believed Abe was a member of some organization or another, but this is also unknown at this time.  It's likely part of some Japanese conspiracy theory if I were to guess.

In any case, Shinzo Abe was an ultranationalist who wanted Japan to rearm and have a military again.  This is, of course, against Japan's constitution which went into effect as part of the peace accord between Japan and the US after the end of World War 2.  I kept remembering Itoi's old ad from before his Earthbound days.
