The nothing to do with Islam thread again.

[-]

Early days, but looks like another nothing to do with Islam, may have done nothing to do with Islam in a Christmas Market in Germany, to a load of innocent people who are definitely nothing to do with Islam.

9 dead and 50 ish injured so far when a couple of suspected nothing to do with Islams, drive a HGV into a crowd.

...... and the BBC still continue to explore every conceivable reason other than the obvious. ......

They should drop the word "news", as I suspect they could be done for trade descriptions .......

Mmm, I was just thinking that we don't have a general purpose snackbar thread. We really can't be making a new one every time they kick off.

Russki ambassador to Turkey got snacked as well, they're having a good day.

And yet Jedi isn't a religion because it does not "promote moral or ethical improvement", does not have "a positive beneficial impact on society in general" and may, in part, have an "inward focus" on its members.

If that's to be the criteria, let's see it applied to all hocus pocus sand wizardry, because I'm really not seeing any positive beneficial impact from islam right now. Ahmadis, as you were.

Nothing much to add to the general news updates so far - but i'm in Berlin at the moment and for another couple of days. I was in another market around a mile away when it happened. Besides the immediate area obviously - things seem fairly normal here so far - crowds thinnied in the other market/tourist areas a bit straight afterwards but things are all running as usual transport wise etc. Had the standard "consider staying at home" type warnings issued but the majority of people have seemed to carry on with their schedule around the city for the rest of tonight, albeit obviously checking the news more frequently.

How's the sentiment over there? Kristallnachtish yet?

Going after significant political targets rather than randoms or low level grunts is a new one. I expect it'll be effective too: I don't buy the painfully official narrative that the Brighton bombing "nearly" derailed secret negotiation with Paddy.gov. Of course we never, ever negotiate with terrorists, except that we do when they become effective.

Obviously, the thing to do is ban all celebrations of Christmas as it clearly offends them.

Now now people, don't get over excited.
We have a well established plan for incidents like this.

Everytime there is a terror attack journalists at the BBC, Sky and the Guardian rush to the multicultural prayer rooms to pray to Allah that it isn't a Muslim.

One arrest, and they let him go within 24 hours. That's a heck of a short time to satisfy themselves that his fingerprints and DNA can't be found anywhere in or on the truck.

Are they really going to try and false-flag it? They do have form.

Conspirifying intensifies.

well, two festive seasons in..are the german authorities, in denial.

is being too PC, stopping them dealing from with the issue, as a pure crime
OR
are they so hamstrung by the rather unedifying thought that
the attack and deaths COULD be used against merkel.

Can they even accept at the highest levels, that the refugee issue, MIGHT have been wrong...

If it's A paki refugee, he didn't go in with the ones from Syria.

Just thought I'd mention it.
