Japan orders dissolution of Unification Church
TOKYO - A court in Tokyo has ordered the dissolution of a religious group whose fundraising methods and ties with ruling party politicians came under scrutiny following the assassination of former prime minister Shinzo Abe more than two years ago.
Fucking finally holy shit! Fuck the Moonies, fuck the LDP, and especially fuck Abe-san for being such a fascist. May his spirit wander Tokyo restlessly forever
Most successful assassin in modern history, maybe all of history?
He killed Abe for his UC ties, and a short few years later, no more Japanese UC.
Has any other politically motivated assassination so directly, and spectacularly, achieved it's aims?
Wait what? Japan's prime minister was assassinated? Why am I only hearing about this now?
Imagine assassinating a head of state and the government listens to your grievances and addresses the problems that led to the assassination.
...must be nice
Because 1) he was no longer PM when it happened, but more importantly, 2) powerful people don’t want you getting the idea that political violence can be righteous
I know that Abe was PM since always, but he's dead for almost three years now
It was several years ago
Yeah I saw that, hence my reaction 😂
