German Authorities Now Think The Shooter That Killed Two U.S. Troops Is An Islamic Terrorist

The man that killed two U.S. soldiers and injured two others is now suspected to be an Islamic terrorist, according to Der Spiegel.

The attack, which occurred yesterday at Frankfurt airport, saw the man step onto a bus carrying U.S. servicemen and open fire. There are now concerns there might be further attacks.

From Der Spiegel:

SPIEGEL ONLINE has learned from sources in German security forces and from the US authorities that there is now substantial evidence linking the attacker to Islamist groups in Germany. In the US, there are fears that the man could be part of a terrorist cell which may now be planning further attacks on American targets in Germany. Sources in the Pentagon expressed great concern about the incident.

A Facebook page linked to the attacker also suggests he was an Islamic terrorist and witnesses say he yelled "Allahu Akhba" before the attack.

Could "Allahu Akhba" be a clue?

Not for the 0bama admin.

I know that this can not possibly be true because Islam is the Religion of Peace. Surely the perp was Amish.

Was the terrorist’s “Allah Akhbar” scream
as he murdered the innocent a clue?

I've been actually surprised by the coverage. Right away we knew he was from Kosovo, he attacked US military personnel, and he shouted "Allahu Akbar!" And it's just been the biggest mystery in the world. Everyone in the press is just befuddled as to a possible motive. No one can figure it out. Investigations are planned into this big mystery.

The guy subsequently confessed to being a militant Islamist and still the press is asking, "But what does he mean by that?"

This is just bizarre.

We obviously didn’t win the gratitude of the Kosovo Muzz by our help against the Serbs.

Sounds more methodist to me, but I could be wrong. (Its a joke....it was the first peaceful religion I could think of outside of Amish)

On Tuesday, while at my gym and mostly listening to music, the TV news in front of the bike I was using showed a couple of vehicles that supposedly contained passengers removed from an airplane that was departing Newark (NJ) Airport.

I just did a GoogleNews search for =Newark Airport= and then =passengers removed= and found nothing.

Did I dream this?

ML/NJ

Somebody on Fox News said on Monday that the people o Kosovo would always be indebted to the US for saving them.

Sure looks like it.

I guess he didn’t read the part in the Koran about Islam being a religion of peace.

....................

Oh, wait a minute, somehow Mohammed left that part out.

You mean he was not a Serbian Christian?

You mean he was not a Quaker, or Amish?

You mean he was not a Tea Party Guy who lost his passport in Yugoslavia and traveled to Germany illegally?

You mean to tell me he was not Rush Limbaugh's nephew or a member of John Boehner family?

You mean that he was not hired by the Palin Family to assassinate Levi Johnston, boarded the wrong plane and got the wrong guy because he lost his health-care after his job was transferred overseas and couldn't get his medication?
