Japanese React to Shinzo Abe’s Assassination | Street Interview

On July 8, 2022 former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe died after being shot during a campaign speech. He was Japan’s longest-serving prime minister and played a significant role in the country’s political landscape. His assassination sent out shock waves globally and across Japan, especially given that Japan has one of the lowest rates of gun violence in the world. Our Asian Boss reporter hit the streets of Tokyo to find out how the Japanese feel about Abe’s death and a gun crime like this.
The opinions expressed in this video are those of individual interviewees alone and do not reflect the views of ASIAN BOSS or the general Japanese population.

LoL Isnt this what both side wanted? Suspect and Police no harm.... Just caused and effect, Suspect wanted to shoot... Got 2 shot, before throwing the gun away. Police wanted to capture and went around so no stray bullet would hit.... No harm done to both sides.... Cause and Effect.... And for those of you saying well its cause Japan is always been peaceful.... sure why not, but in 1992 attempted fail and 2011 attempted success.

Conservative people believe anything the right-wing influencers tell them to believe anyway. The problem is, after Abe's second term, it seemed like he learned how to manipulate the media coverage of his politics. So there's even a chance that the people who don't care about politics don't exactly know what his revisionism was like. And also, Japanese people somehow have a tendency to avoid political confrontations. This issue was highly politicized, so people don't really talk about this kind of thing so often.

Source Tojo Hedeki: Fanatical Terror Of The Rising Sun | Evolution Of Evil | Timeline Link removed 8:33 Go to this timeline to see the assassination scene on the above video. Update Some interesting quotes to help us remember him by. "i will deny this murder ever happened like he denied japanese war crimes his entire life" -Cleric Support Abe was a warmonger and he showed it by constantly going to the Yakusuni Shrine and he wanted to amend Article 9 of the Post War Constitution that prohibit Japan to maintain anything but a Self Defense Military. -Hang Tuah Abe’s maternal grandfather was a Class A war criminal. 2. Abe insisted in going to Yasakuni Shrine that interned the ashes of all of these class A war criminals even when the Japanese Emperor Hirohito refused to. 3. Abe pushed for the amendment of Article 9 of the Japanese constitution, regarding its pacifist clause. 4. Abe came up with the idea of the Quad. 5. Abenomics has failed and that is why Japan’s debt is 230% of GDP and the yen is in a free fall since March. -神州 Shenzhou 😭💐🙏

    Shinzo Abe misses his grandfather Nobusuke Kishi so much that he often visits the Yasukuni Shrine. So, his grandfather sent someone to find him to meet in hell! On July 14th, 1960, Shinzo Abe's grandfather Nobusuke Kishi was assassinated (the assassination was unsuccessful). Shinzo Abe repeated the mistakes of his grandfather. It is said that Tetsuya Yamagami, the suspect in the assassination of Shinzo Abe, was a former member of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Soldiers are the people closest to war. Japanese soldiers oppose warmongers Shinzo Abe, very good! The revival of fascism in Japan goes against the wishes of the Japanese people! It is hoped that the death of Shinzo Abe will serve as a warning to Fumio Kishida, another descendant of war criminals who colonized Taiwan.. Nobusuke Kishi, was once called the "Monster of Manchuria”. He was the Deputy PM of the puppet Manchukuo. His hands were stained with the blood of the Chinese people. his main "performance": 1. He cultivated opium poppy on a large scale and monopolized the opium trade in Northeast China, becoming the second largest source of revenue for the Puppet Manchukuo after tariff revenue. He personally brought tons of opium to Shanghai to trade, and together with the Japanese army stationed in Shanghai, he made huge profits. 2. He vigorously promoted the “Manchuria and Mongolia pioneering group” to immigrate to Northeast China, forcibly occupying the land and villages of Chinese farmers, causing a large number of Chinese families to lose their land and homes, to be displaced, freeze to death and starve to death. 3. During his stay in Manchuria, he also actively organized comfort stations for the Kwantung Army, forcibly recruited or deceived Chinese and Korean women as comfort women for the Japanese army to vent their animal desires... 4. He formed the infamous Unit 731 to conduct bacterial experiments on living people, and the main funds were raised by him. It can be said that he is one of the main planners of Unit 731. Unit 731 dissects a living Chinese child. Because of his numerous crimes, he was greatly appreciated by the Japanese military. After returning to Japan at the end of 1939, he served as the Minister of Commerce and Industry in the Japanese Cabinet. Since then, Nobusuke Kishi made greater efforts to be loyal to Japanese fascist regime, firmly supported the launching of the Pacific War, signed the declaration of war against the United States, and become the most capable cabinet member of Hideki Tojo's wartime cabinet. Under the full operation of Nobusuke Kishi, coal, grain and iron ore plundered from China and oil, rubber, wood, copper and other strategic resources plundered from Southeast Asia were continuously transported to Japan, which became the driving force of Japan's crazy war machine. At this time, Nobusuke Kishi has changed from the "Monster of Manchuria” to the "Monster of the Shōwa era". After Japan's defeat, Nobusuke Kishi was listed as a Class A war criminal, but because Hirohito knelt down and licked MacArthur, comfort stations were set up all over Japan, MacArthur was very happy, and finally Nobusuke Kishi was "acquitted". Nobusuke Kishi thought he could not escape death, but he did not expect to be "acquitted" by the Americans. He was grateful to the United States when he came out of his cell. He just wanted to lick MacArthur's ass and show his loyalty all the time. MacArthur immediately said when he saw Nobusuke Kishi's attitude: Yes, we can rest assured of you, and the Japanese government will hand it over to you in the future. With the strong support of the United States, in 1957, the war criminal Nobusuke Kishi became the Prime Minister of Japan. In this way, Nobusuke Kishi pledged his infinite allegiance to MacArthur and his oath of allegiance to the United States. In the process of kneeling and licking the United States, fruitful results have been achieved. His greatest "merit" was the vigorous push for the “Treaty of Mutual Cooperation and Security between the United States and Japan” under his leadership, which asserted that the United States must defend Japan and that Japan must be defended by the United States - ultimately making Japan a vassal state of the United States. In fact, many opposition parties in Japan were opposed to becoming a colony of the United States, but Nobusuke Kishi even disregarded the procedures of the Japanese constitution and went to Washington in January 1959 to sign a new U.S.-Japan Security Treaty. Since then, Japan is no longer an independent country. After returning to Japan from the United States, hundreds of thousands of demonstrations awaited him, surrounding the halls of Congress, and there were many voices of opposition, but Nobusuke Kishi, no matter what, swore allegiance to the United States and forcibly ratified a new U.S.-Japan Security Treaty that would It will take effect automatically after one month Hundreds of thousands of protesters surround the Japanese National Diet building during the massive 1960 Anpo protests against the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty Hagerty's car is mobbed by protestors, June 10, 1960 July 14, 1960, Prime Minister of Japan Nobusuke Kishi after the attempted assassination, being tranported to the hospital Shinzo Abe was a big fan of his grandfather, Nobusuke Kishi. Nobusuke Kishi's "political legacy" was inherited and carried forward by Shinzo Abe. Why do Shinzo Abe. like to visit the Yasukuni Shrine so much? Because the shrine enshrines a group of fascist beasts, including his grandfather Nobusuke Kishi. The US has left a strong political force of conservatism in Japan (old political forces). Why Japan did not face up to history is also because the current ruling group is still the old ruling group in World War II. Japan is a hereditary politics, and the Japanese ruling class is essentially a ruling class whose militarism may come back at any time. Fumio Kishida's family After the Sino Japanese War of 1894-1895, Fumio Kishida great grandfather Ikutaro Kishida became rich by plundering resources in Jilong, Taiwan, with the Japanese army. Fumio Kishida is so concerned about Taiwan, China, because he wants to inherit the career of his great-grandfather! Fumio Kishida's grandfather, Masaki Kishida, a World War II war criminal, member of the Japanese House of Representatives after World War II In the World War II, his grandfather Masaki Kishida served in the Japanese Navy, and successively served as naval participant officer, naval political assistant, national defense Commissioner, liberal party general affairs, etc. After World War II, Masaki Kishida was dismissed from office for being a war criminal, but eventually returned to the House of Representatives because of dirty deals between Japan and the United States. Of course, we have leftists in Japan to thank. Japan's teachers' Union is Left-wing (Only 0.4% of schools use right-wing textbooks), Kitano Takeshi, Japanese national treasure director, Doraemon author Fujiko f Fujio, Miyazaki Hayao and so on are all Left-wing. There are not a few leftists in the Japanese intellectual, cultural and artistic circles. In addition, the Communist Party of Japan(CPJ) is a communist party with a longer history than the CPC. The ruling class in Japan is quite divided from the lower classes. This is the status quo in Japan. To some extent, this explains why the Japanese people have always advocated peace, while the Japanese government (old political forces) is busy revising the peace constitution, amending the security bill and lifting the ban on the right to collective self-defense...

    From a perspective of a person that lives in south America, Brazil, and bring asian, living afraid of getting shot is the worst thing possible. I can't leave home and not get threatened of getting robbed or something. I was taught since very early that if someone points a gun at me, i just not do fast movements or talk fast, not reach my pockets, etc. So since i was young, i was taught of what to do to not get shot or accidentally shot. Nowadays here, it's so easy to die from someone trying to rob you and ends up shooting you. It's a pity to see something like that occurring in Japan.

    This may seem odd to Japanese friends, but one of us political observers in Vietnam once said that the assassination of Mr. Shinzo Abe was related to the issue of bad luck. Anyone who has ever visited the mausoleum of communist leader Ho Chi Minh in Vietnam has not had a happy ending. Many Vietnamese politicians and businessmen (work for communists) in Vietnam have visited this leader's mausoleum, and have ended up being poisoned (like Tran Dai Quang) or arrested. Mr. Shinzo Abe also went there once. Anyway, I may not be as aware of Japanese politics as you are, but for us Vietnamese, Mr. Shinzo Abe in particular and the whole of Japan in general have given to us so much help. I don't know what my country would be like without the help of the Japanese people and government. Thank you guys, thanks Mr. Shinzo Abe, and my sincere condolences to the family.

You can and are allowed have your policital diferencies and opinions, but resorting to this type of violence doesn't do good to anyone except erroding the state of a stable working society. I hope Japan gets to work on this problem once and for all, there are many people out there who are desperately in need of professional mental support and because of the lack of it are resorting to take measures into their own hands only to result into senseless violence.

    Shinzo Abe misses his grandfather Nobusuke Kishi so much that he often visits the Yasukuni Shrine. So, his grandfather sent someone to find him to meet in hell! On July 14th, 1960, Shinzo Abe's grandfather Nobusuke Kishi was assassinated (the assassination was unsuccessful). Shinzo Abe repeated the mistakes of his grandfather. It is said that Tetsuya Yamagami, the suspect in the assassination of Shinzo Abe, was a former member of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Soldiers are the people closest to war. Japanese soldiers oppose warmongers Shinzo Abe, very good! The revival of fascism in Japan goes against the wishes of the Japanese people! It is hoped that the death of Shinzo Abe will serve as a warning to Fumio Kishida, another descendant of war criminals who colonized Taiwan.. Nobusuke Kishi, was once called the "Monster of Manchuria”. He was the Deputy PM of the puppet Manchukuo. His hands were stained with the blood of the Chinese people. his main "performance": 1. He cultivated opium poppy on a large scale and monopolized the opium trade in Northeast China, becoming the second largest source of revenue for the Puppet Manchukuo after tariff revenue. He personally brought tons of opium to Shanghai to trade, and together with the Japanese army stationed in Shanghai, he made huge profits. 2. He vigorously promoted the “Manchuria and Mongolia pioneering group” to immigrate to Northeast China, forcibly occupying the land and villages of Chinese farmers, causing a large number of Chinese families to lose their land and homes, to be displaced, freeze to death and starve to death. 3. During his stay in Manchuria, he also actively organized comfort stations for the Kwantung Army, forcibly recruited or deceived Chinese and Korean women as comfort women for the Japanese army to vent their animal desires... 4. He formed the infamous Unit 731 to conduct bacterial experiments on living people, and the main funds were raised by him. It can be said that he is one of the main planners of Unit 731. Unit 731 dissects a living Chinese child. Because of his numerous crimes, he was greatly appreciated by the Japanese military. After returning to Japan at the end of 1939, he served as the Minister of Commerce and Industry in the Japanese Cabinet. Since then, Nobusuke Kishi made greater efforts to be loyal to Japanese fascist regime, firmly supported the launching of the Pacific War, signed the declaration of war against the United States, and become the most capable cabinet member of Hideki Tojo's wartime cabinet. Under the full operation of Nobusuke Kishi, coal, grain and iron ore plundered from China and oil, rubber, wood, copper and other strategic resources plundered from Southeast Asia were continuously transported to Japan, which became the driving force of Japan's crazy war machine. At this time, Nobusuke Kishi has changed from the "Monster of Manchuria” to the "Monster of the Shōwa era". After Japan's defeat, Nobusuke Kishi was listed as a Class A war criminal, but because Hirohito knelt down and licked MacArthur, comfort stations were set up all over Japan, MacArthur was very happy, and finally Nobusuke Kishi was "acquitted".

Obliviously Japan is a democratic country which world recognize. Kishi is Abe"s grandfather whose sprit is not at Yasukuni Shrine. In fact his ashes is being buried in tomb of ancestors at Yamaguchi Ken. First you better study with basic facts.

    Hi Asian Boss, you should consider interviewing the native Chinese and Korean people for what they have to say. I've waited for you guy's video to come out after hearing the news about Abe. I'm interested because I'm Chinese American. I don't have much of an opinion and I can't relate as much because I've lived in America for so long. I have lost touch with my Chinese POV side. The reason being China and Korea have a really rough history with Japan due to WW2 and I've heard a lot of awful things on the internet about Abe. I've been wondering what do ordinary Chinese and Korean people think on the street? From the younger generation to the old?

    Gun violence is extremely rare in Japan but assassination of political oppositions are not.

    @@hayz9338 staggering is wrong words. 6 people were killed. They were all Samurai warriors. Samurai means death. Best way ti go as far as they were concerned. US British French Russia were interested in Japan . They forced to open its country by military forces. They bombarded from their ships and destroyed peaceful villages and killed . Japan had 400 years of peaceful and had cultural development before that. So Shogun hand over his Government to the Emperor without bloodshed. He move into the temporary house called Edo jo where his highness still lives temporary. His main house is in Kyoto. Emperors has never being killed in Japanese history 3000 years and only Independent country in Asia then. Others were under colonization by Europeans for 500 years. Asian did not have any leaders within own country. So all top were whites from British , French , Duch. Japan had own Japanese leaders all its history. Look at Russia and Japan war, their ambitions were taking over Korean peninsula and china. Japan had to stop, Look at Imperial Navy who defeated Russian Freet. Japanese strategy was 500 years old . Not known by westner. Strong army / sumurai kept country peace and no assassinations. Maybe one in 400years. So that “staggering assassinations” is wrong words.

    At first, many people were actually sad. But lately everyone is getting cooler and cooler. In particular, the Japanese feel sadness and hopelessness about the relationship between cults and politicians. No matter how good Shinzo Abe's personality was, he shouldn't have been friendly with the cult as a politician. Once your family joins the cult, it can destroy your life until it really goes bankrupt. Japan is a democracy. But if a politician like Shinzo Abe gets money from a particular cult and directs a vote, it's a dictatorship.
