Shinzo Abe was a Japanese ultranationalist, war crimes and genocide denier, and the Prime Minister of Japan from 2006 to 2007 and again from 2012 to 2020. He was the leader of the right-wing Liberal Democratic Party. He was assassinated by Yamagami Tetsuya（山上 徹也) on 2022 July 8.[1]
Political positions
Abe was a member of the ultranationalist organization Nippon Kaigi(日本会議）for introducing U.S. nuclear weapons to Japan for use against China and the DPRK.[1]
Death
Abe is in cahoots with the cult Unification Church(统一教), accepting donations and providing political patronage to the cult. Yamagami Tetsuya's mother, who was under the spell of the cult, gave a lot of money to the cult and even sold her house. On July 7, 2022, when Abe was giving a speech in Okayama City, Tetsuya shot and killed Abe. His assassination has excited many Chinese and Koreans.
