That's quite impressive for a nation that doesn't have a President.
(The Emperor is the Head of State. The government is led by the Prime Minister.)
I think they were implying that Japan supported either John Wilkes Booth, or Lee Harvey Oswald? I can't imagine they'd support the attempt of John Hinkley Jr. or John Flammang Schrank. The dudes didn't finish the job.
Why does every presidential assassin have 3 names?
To avoid someone else facing repercussions for the crime, no matter how unlikely that there's gonna be someone named Lee John Oswald, there might be.
(You could argue that since Oswald is dead, this shouldn't be a problem, but that's where the logic comes from)
Lee John Oswald at the DMV a year later trying to renew his license.
LJO - I assure you I'm not dead.
DMV Worker - That's not what the system says. It also days you shot President Kennedy. If you wanted a license you shouldn't have done that.
LJO - That wasn't me. That was Lee HARVEY Oswald.
