I don't know why do you push this foreign view on their country (i kind of know, i'm just trying to be playful, hopefully you got the reference), maybe you have a specific agenda, i won't comment on it

However i'll remind you that for the majority of Japanese, Abe is a 'traitor' (their word) [1]

Seems like you linked the wrong article.
No, it's the proper article, journalist covering an information, up to various investigators to figure out the links

As for the traitor thing, it's what the population is saying, try to get in touch with students, it's what contributed to the assassination of Abe and the current events (majority of the population against a national funeral, why? it was their prime minister, such figure this disliked?)

My personal opinion: You don't assassinate your prime minister over a donation to a religious group, you do it because you are a nationalist and you punish act of treason
