you guys can make this into some big "cabal" conspiracy theory all you want but Abe was owned by the same bankers that own Biden and most other countries. He was basically Japan's George W Bush, a 3rd generation career politician who left behind the most debt-ridden nation (vs GDP) in the modern world, sold his country out to China, drastically increased personal income tax and consumption tax, and only started giving companies a reason to pull production back to Japan once Trump blasted China with tariffs. Both of his grandfathers were career politicians, and one was nearly assassinated, and his dad never worked a day in the private sector either.
You're talking about the Prescott > HW > Dubya of Japan, about as deep as the deep state gets unless, of course, you don't think the Bush's have been compromised in more than 70 years in politics?
Yeah he pissed China off trying to get the US to take a hard stance on Taiwan but he did so after depleting his military so badly that the country is completely reliant on USA for protection.
But at least he wasn't on Epstein Island (?) and talks a pretty strong anti-Commie game
