因果関係 　　Causality

全ての事象には因果関係があるのでしょう。

ここ数ヶ月で浮かび上がっている政治家と宗教団体の件、オリンピックに絡んだ贈収賄事件などなどのことです。

政治家や税金をつぎ込んだイベントに関した人に対して、一般人が個人的は面識も知識もなくてもメディアで報じられる情報を元に、彼らを批判、評価、憶測の対象にするのは止むを得ないでしょう。

政治派閥のボスと宗教団体との間で脈々と続いている選挙目当ての関係や言動は一般人には信じ難いですが、関係当事者からのはっきりとした反証や説明がなければ今回の狙撃への因果関係も認めざるを得ません。

予定されている故安部元首相の国葬への反対意見が過半数を超えているのも当然かもしれません。

There must be causal relationships between all events.

I mean they are the case of politicians and a religious group that have emerged in the past few months, and the bribery case involving the Olympics, and so on.

The general public usually has no personal acquaintance or knowledge of politicians or those involved in taxpayer-funded events, and we, regular people, cannot help but criticize, evaluate, and speculate about them based on information reported in the medias.

It is hard for the general public to believe in the ongoing electioneering relationship and behavior between political faction bosses and the religious group, but without clear proof or explanation from the parties involved, we have to admit that there is a causal link to the shooting.

Perhaps it is no surprise that there is more than a majority of opposition to the planned state funeral of the late former Prime Minister Abe.
