ISTANBUL — Russia’s ambassador to Turkey was assassinated at an Ankara art exhibit on Monday evening by a lone Turkish gunman shouting “God is great!” and “don’t forget Aleppo, don’t forget Syria!” in what the leaders of Turkey and Russia called a provocative terrorist attack.

TY!

Any special reason for attacking me?

FWIW, I found the link on Drudge.

He did not say “ God is Great”
He yelled “ allah Akbar”
Allah is Greater
Truth in reporting
Dont let the media hijack the name of OUR God as a killing phrase
And if anyone thinks they are the same entity, read up on what happens to muslim tolerance in translations of the koran when God is substituted for Allah

[silverleaf]

See my post
This seems to be a new media narrative
To write that jihadist killers yell “ God is Great “ instead of what they really yell and what they really believe

[ari-freedom]

“Shooter is dead.”

and we will never know who worked with him to set this up or if he just acted on his own. Plausible deniability ‘stuff’

Turkish gunman shouting “God is great!” and “don’t forget Aleppo, don’t forget Syria!”

Guy spoke good English.

He was looking for the Aloha Snackbar to get a sandwich and his gun went off by accident.

Except Walid Shoebat and others ( see below) point out that the assassin yelled a muslim brotherhood phrase and ISIS , while cooperating with muslim brotherhood , are not card carrying members of the muslim brotherhood

there is leadership chasm between them over fatwas and the legitimate leadership of the “ caliphate” among other issues

The MB has been around a lot longer than ISIS
Would ISIS like to claim taking down a Russian ambassador? Sure. Would that mean Abu Bakr al Baghdadi planned and ordered the hit? To embarrass his frequent Turkish host Erdogan ? Seems a bit off

So it would be premature to attribute this guy to being ISIS given the MB oath he yelled after shooting the Russian Ambassador

And of course we the USA have muslim brotherhood members entrenched in the WH and throughout our govt so what does that say about our security ?

Don’t be so sensitive. I was commenting on the slimes.

[Jack Hammer]

Another moslem nut.

The first thing Trump needs to do is permanently kick any Muslims out of the White House and the Secret Service. These people simply cannot be trusted in close proximity around a non-Muslim President - much less handling a deadly weapon.

[Major Matt Mason]

The Assassin not only said Allahu Akbar, but also used slogans specifically of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Friends of BO.

[Carthego delenda est]

Interesting the media is now translating and stating he said “God is great!” Hopefully this isn’t coming down as an order from the media owners, which would mean something’s up, probably a push to lie and say the ‘god’ of Islam is the same as the Judaeo-Christian God, preparing the public for ‘something’....

[InterceptPoint]

You could be right vis a vis ISIS vs MB. Both, IMHO, are FOO (Friends of Obama) so I tend to just lump them together.

In the long run there will be a pretty good fight between ISIS, the MB and Turkey as to who deserves to be the leader of that wonderful Caliphate that these guys all dream about.

Hopefully before it comes to that Trump will suppress ISIS, fire the MB hired by Obama and read the Riot Act to Turkey and things will calm down in the M.E.

Good analysis there.- This is the basis for Tulsi Gabbard’s claim that the US was arming and supporting ISIS.

From twitter. I wonder if I can do the html correctly.

Just a sample of initial questions about the assassination of Russia ambassador in Turkey capital, that need responses by authorities.

[mikeIII]

Hmmm... Good points all!

[ScubieNuc]

I believe this is a staged or false flag incident. Where’s the blood? What happened to the table and one of the microphones (two different angles of the same thing don’t show the same thing)?

This will just be used by Russia as an excuse to take some military gloves off if the mainstream media doesn’t expose the fraud.

[arrogantsob]

There was a picture of the blood.

Don’t go goofy on us. The guy was assassinated for real.

[semimojo]

U.S.: Therefore (IMHO) supports ISIS

By that logic we're either supporting ISIS or Iran.
