I'm leery of the specifically Moonies association, in that it plays well as comedy to a western audience but it's also very convenient for the right-wing cause of "it's the Koreans' fault somehow". The candidate Abe was appearing on short notice to support, while a member of the LDP, is also endorsed by their junior coalition partner, Komeito, which is the political offshoot of the very prominent (and very lawyered-up) evangelical Nichiren sect Soka Gakkai. For purposes of this being a public post with my name on it, I'm not going to speculate that it's them and the suspect's claimed motives are plausible, just point out that they're also a religious group that does not like to be named in the media and has a history of doing something about it, with close links to Abe, and a very plausible likelihood of having VIPs at the campaign event.

tazjin posted:was it the president or prime minister that gave the "everything is hosed" speech recently? wickremasinghe is up to some poo poo, because he is always up to some poo poo, but has also correctly identified the lane that is most likely to keep him, personally, in power at the moment that includes resigning in preparation for a new unity government Ousting Gotobaya isn't sufficient, and arguably it wasn't even necessary, but I'm not gonna complain too hard about an apparently-grassrootsy revolt removing a president who Has Done hosed Up and is also not a very nice person. I did not expect his resignation to be as stephenthinkpad posted:I wasn't paying attention to the Sri Lanka update because I assumed it's going to be a smaller scale of the Venezuela economic down turn, but god drat Sri Lanka people are hard core. Sri Lanka needs foreign currency immediately, and a lot of it. There aren't really any non-terrible ways to resolve this barring it all being no-strings international aid, and SL can't really control whether or not they get that short of prostrating themselves and hoping for the best. If you import almost all your petroleum (and quite a lot of your fertilizer) and your foreign reserves run dry, you don't get any more of the thing that makes vehicles go or the thing that turns dirt into food.

https://www.npr.org/2022/07/09/1110...xEE6I&fs=e&s=cl apparently the shooter visited another city Abe was stumping at the day before so it’s possible picking Abe as a target wasn’t such a spur of the moment thing who knows, I’m sure more info will shake out over the next few days I didn’t know what the significance of the photo of Abe in a plane was so I had to look it up. holy poo poo

Chamale posted:The airplane is number 731. Unit 731 was a Japanese unit that infamously tortured Chinese civilians in the guise of "medical experiments". And then we gave them immunity and took their research to drop plague bombs in Korea. A very small number of Russian and American POWs had been tortured in 731 experiments, and the Soviets sentenced the 731 guys they got to the gulag. American survivors of 731 ended up having to petition congress for support in the 80s because they didn't get any military bennies from their long term injuries.
