So, if the Prime Minister was a IJA supporter, the IJN will attempt assassination on him, and vice versa. Hence, the deaths of 2 PMs on one month.

      In Japan they, just like pretty much everywhere else in the world, are dealing heavily with what they call Hikikomori. Typically young boys/men, but men in general, who are suffering from extreme mental illness where they cannot function in these kind of capitalist culture societies and many of them use/react with violence. They also have high suic!de rates like many Western countries as well. Now with being able to create these "ghost" guns at home it's just the perfect recipe for disaster.

    The assassination of Shinzo Abe did actually shock me. Surprisingly so, because these kinds of things don't typically affect ne that significantly. (If at all lol)
    Benazir Bhutto was extremely shocking, because of how brave she was. I remember distinctly seeing her appearing even on "Western" TV, even on the Rachel Maddow show, and really finding myself inspired by her courage.
    Knowing also at the same time how much of a risk she was posing herself by speaking out so freely. And then finding myself not being surprised in the least, despite being shocked, once the inevitable did end up happening.
    It's really a shame, still. And it's good she's still being talked about and remembered. ✌

    It truly pissed me off when Benazir Bhutto was killed as everyone knew it was coming. She talked openly about it likely happening. It was just a matter of time. Yet someone put her in a killzone, towering out of the top of a vehicle, above the crowd, in plain sight, in an area with no security. She was literally walked to her own assassination.
