The video is really sketchy.
The photo of him on the floor has a small amount of blood on his arm and mouth. The guy supposedly got shot in the heart, but his exposed chest is clean. Neck flap moves before the sound of the shot.
It is a “public death”. The Shinzo Abe persona is burned and he is off the chessboard after serving his purpose. Mission accomplished, truly. He will not be returning as that person.
The video is sketchy and I noticed the collar flap too when I saw it. Just because this may have been a controlled movie scene, does not mean Abe is alive.
I think Abe chose to play the role of assassin victim, and is also actually dead. He was suffering from a very painful disease. He has no selfish need to watch the fruits of his labours while never speaking to family again. His self sacrifice was very Japanese, by design.
Contrast that with the British MP Jo Cox who was "assassinated" by a "pro brexit maniac" right before the crucial referendum (it didn't accomplish what it sought out to). Look up Rich Hall for more info. Ironically after her fake assassination she was probably simply offed, she didn't know how disposable she really was.
