Shinzo Abe Killer’s Trial Is Exposing the Christian Cult Entrenched in Japanese Politics
Tetsuya Yamagami is on trial for the assassination of Shinzo Abe, citing Abe's ties to the Moonies as his motivation.
Journalist and author Elle Hardy, of "Beyond Belief: How Pentecostal Christianity Is Taking Over the World," notes Yamagami's significant following.
Yamagami's trial began on Tuesday, but many see Japan's political system as the true defendant.
When Yamagami pulled the trigger in July 2022, killing Shinzo Abe, it seemed incomprehensible.
