Summary
A car ploughed into a Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, killing at least two people, including a child, and injuring 68 others, 15 critically, in what authorities are treating as a terror attack.
The suspect, identified as Taleb A., a Saudi Arabian psychiatrist living in Germany since 2006, was arrested at the scene. He allegedly drove a rented BMW through the crowded market, targeting families and children.
The attack raised concerns about security at Christmas markets despite preventive measures like bollards. German and French leaders expressed shock and condolences.
This incident follows heightened vigilance since a 2016 truck attack on a Berlin Christmas market that killed 13 people.
"Man drives into crowd. We are unable to confirm if he’s Muslim. (But he does look like it, doesn’t he?).
Hmm
I think Germany is having issues.

You’re right, Taleb A. from Saudi Arabia sounds like your regular run of the mill European cultural christian…
I just think it’s neat that when they’re brown they’re consistently matched with their religion, but only certain people will associate white nationalists and Nazis with Christianity.
The West absolutely has a fascist white Christian terrorist problem, that doesn’t change anything I said
The same reporters that are happy to label this guy as Muslim absolutely do not call crusaders what they are.

I watched 9/11 happen as a kid which made an impression on me, I understand why some Germans are succumbing to this thinking… it’s wrong, it’s understandable, it’s a bad sign.

Lol, nice try. First you say 99% to pretend you’re not wrong. But now you let it slip that you think it’s every single time – which is false. And you can’t equate the two.

Kinda sounds like you might be on the same team as this murder.
How is it wrong?
Do you have any stats to back it up?
Oh?

Doesn’t seem like 99% to me. But I’m not mathematologist.
This part of the 1% seems to be the opposite:

Because Nazis don’t do this shit in the name of religion, that’s where the difference lies
Which religion’s name was this done in?
As current information indicates radical hate of all religions and insane claims of German police furthering the “islamization” of Germany.
Going by the stuff the suspect wrote on his twitter it seems stochastic terrorism from the far right worked once again. Just that this time the victims aren’t brown, queer or jewish, but “normal” (by the far rights idea) Germans.
