'Cautious all clear' in Munich

Police are giving a “cautious all-clear”, saying they found one person in connection who took their own life. There is a “high probability” that that person acted alone, officers say.

From reading the news it might of not been a Muslim this time. There is a chance.

According to some the video appeared to be a white male shooter yelling in perfect Bavarian German.

rip Simorgh

 

[BLIT2014]

The motive of the attack is still considered unknown according to the chief of the Munich Police.

 

[sinophile]

Simorgh, wat.

 

[dan964]

If my scenarios are right then I will be patting myself hard on the back. Look forward to know the motive of such an attack.

An Iranian committing terrorism for what? Especially when most are Shia and on top of that in the West they are mostly irreligious. This is why the motives are "totally unclear" as clearly stated by the Bavarian Police.

even if you are right, you should not be patting yourself on the back, especially in the wake of another tragedy like this.

Roast or not roast, the dude had a gun, so he had bad intentions from the start.

Also the balcony man sounds like renegade lel

[anomalousdecay]

Why would Iranians violently fight for Islam and impose it on others? They had Islam imposed on them. If there is any Iranian does this they are retarded, ignorant of who they are and where they belong.

Any person who kills others in massacres is mentally ill. You need to stop thinking the fact that he was Iranian makes him not:

retarded, ignorant of who they are and where they belong

There's no need to protect Iran because of his actions. It's like trying to protect America because an American started a high school massacre. There's no need and it makes you look bad for protecting a muderer's intentions for not 'being ISIS related'.

Ali Sonboly's hairdresser described him as a "typical teen" who was "quiet, didn't talk much" and who "wasn't religious".

He said he didn't believe the attack could have been an Isil-inspired Paris-style terror attack, because the family were Shia Muslims.

"They're Shias," the hairdresser, who gave his name only as Hakan, said."How could he be with Isil? Isil hate the Shia."

He said the boy had only been in to have his hair cut twice at Sand Coiffeur, just across the street from the flat where the family lived, but that his father as a regular.

"I know the father better, he's a nice guy," he said. He described the gunman as "kind of anonymous" on the occasions he had come in to the salon.

Not terrorism, however, was it his faith that made him do it?

Hates Turks and Sunni Muslims, decides to lure people into a McDonalds to shoot them to prove his point... Is also a Shia Muslim (staunchly against Sunni Muslims)
