Didn't they connect the old guy to a group of Russian-funded extremists?

Kinda like howthe Russian GRU blew up a Czech ammo dump not too long ago: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-56798784

Nothing will ever top the Dutch though. They once ATE their PM in protest. Not even kidding.

The Slovak PM is a pro Russian anti-queer strongman type who has divided the country.

Oh, so I shouldn't feel too bad for him.

The guy who shot him is a pro Russian writer who has links to a Pro Russian Paramilitary group.

Hmmm, ah, hmm.

It’s funny, the Japanese are like these too but for PMs that have been retired for a long time.

And the assassin was quietly vindicated, because everyone sort of felt the same way but didn't want to say it.

Yukio Mishima: 0.

The Thingamajig: 1.

Absolutely. Most successful assassination in ages.

The real trolley problem
