Brian Williams On Munich Attack: Rooting For It Not To Be ISIS
BY: Chandler Gill July 22, 2016 6:47 pm
Hours after the attack in Munich, Germany, MSNBC’s Brian Williams said it was a strange feeling to root for this attack to not be related to the Islamic State.
“And why does it feel so strange to kind of root for it not being ISIS?” he asked.
Williams then said that he was hoping this attack would break the cycle of IS attacks. This comes after the recent attacks in Istanbul, Turkey, and Nice, France in which multiple innocent people were tragically killed at soft target locations.
IS claimed responsibilities for these.
“To kind of– you know, to break the cycle even though every death is an absolute tragedy and this just means we have deranged people without the affiliation, you know?” Williams said.
Journalist Richard Engel had pointed out that there has been no proof that confirmed that this was IS.
“We don’t know that this was ISIS and it’s possible that it wasn’t,” he said. “The assumption, and it’s a logical assumption based on all the attacks that we’ve seen recently, that it is ISIS, but there are certain things that are very unusual about this.”
Engel cited that there was a small number of casualties, as well as the use of very small weapons and that these do not match typical IS-inspired strikes.
He added that with the small number of deaths, that this could be indicative of the attacker fleeing, which is also not common in ISI attacks.

Why is the left like this?
Because everyone knows Obama created ISIS by pulling out of Iraq.
“Obama and Hillary are founding members of ISIS” as Giuliani once said.
He was bullied, so he murders children. Right, that makes sense-to a murderous Muslim.
What’s impure evil... just asking.
frikkin man
Really?
The guy who offed himself was IDd as Iranian?
Surprise surprise
McDonald’s is a sign of American imperialism. This was not a jihadist attack.
Anyways Christians, get off your high horses, don’t you remember The Crusades?
Media scumbags, we need to run them out of town
Aloha Snackbar
They are all ISIS
Aloha Snackbar
They are all ISIS
Shepard Smith noted way earlier today that it was not a terrorist attack.
Indeed
It feels strange to Williams to root for this tragedy not to be ISIS because if it is ISIS then Trump’s acceptance speech is rooted in reality, not darkness - a false meme put out there by the mainstream press.
How do you know the lack of other factors. Have you interviewed the persons whom you are accusing. Maybe it means you are ignorant of other factors.
Funny how if they didn’t already fear and know in their hearts that it was a Muslim, they’d be leaping to the furthest possible stretches to try to blame it on a group like the Tea Party. They still do, sometimes.
Unmitigated, of course.
If beheading a child doesn’t qualify as being purely evil, nothing does.
not choosy
