The card said "Dear Mr. Policeman, I am God."

Just to clarify.

"Dear Mr. Policeman, I am God."

These can be Al-Qaeda terrorists indeed. All indications to this effect (reference to god (Allah), wrong tarot card, AK-74, elaborate planning, random targets, olive skin) and absolutely no indications otherwise.

BTW, there were several deadly accurate sniper shootings in Israel among other things. Might be graduates of the same training camp

The most serious argument is that the sniper has an accomplice. Everybody agrees that this is a madman or a terrorist. Well, madmen are rarely accompanied by helpers/drivers when going on a rampage

The card said "Dear Mr. Policeman, I am God."

There are different accounts of its precise wording. I don't think we'll know exactly what it said until we see a reproduction or photo.

I think it was Nix 2 who said on a thread yesterday that the card has a message on its back that is written in German. That's presumably where it requested not releasing the info. I wonder if it also contained a threat to the government.

I thought that the "Mister" was spelled out not abreviated. Was that the case?

Both the police and the press have agreed to withhold the exact wording on the card and have amitted it.
