U.S. Troops Murdered by Kosovar Muslim at Frankfurt Airport

The story's developing.

At Der Spiegel, "
Shooting at Frankfurt Airport: US Soldiers Believed Among Dead in Killings." (At Memeorandum.)

And see Atlas Shrugs, "
Frankfurt airport shooting: Muslim Kills Two, Wounds Two, in Shooting Attack on US military bus UPDATE: Shooter Shouted Islamic slogans during the attack on the bus." And Jihad Watch, "Frankfurt Airport murderer shouted Islamic slogans during the attack on the bus."

Also, at Gates of Vienna, "Murder in Frankfurt":
A culturally enriched gunman has killed at least two people, one of them an American soldier, at Frankfurt Airport.

It’s important to remember that this:

(a) is the act of a deranged loner,
(b) reflects the extremist ideology of only a tiny minority of the world’s Muslims, and
(c) has no connection with terrorism.

If the U.S. government hasn’t already issued a statement to that effect, it will shortly.
And at BBC, "Frankfurt Airport shooting: Two US servicemen dead":
Kosovo Interior Minister Bajram Rexhepi said in an interview that German police had identified the suspect as a Kosovan citizen from the northern town of Mitrovica.

"This is a devastating and a tragic event," Mr Rexhepi said, reports the Associated Press news agency.

"We are trying to find out was this something that was organised or what was the nature of the attack."

The interior minister for the German state of Hesse, Boris Rhein, confirmed the gunman was from Kosovo.

"Whether the incident was linked to terrorism I cannot say at this stage," he told journalists.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel condemned the "terrible incident".

"I would like to say how saddened I am by this incident and I would like to assure you that the German government will do our utmost to investigate what happened," she told journalists in Berlin.

Four Islamists were convicted in March last year in Germany for plotting to bomb targets including Ramstein Air Base.

Last month the German parliament extended by one year the military mission in Afghanistan.

Germany has 4,860 troops there, despite domestic polls suggesting the mission's unpopularity.

  1. The Kosovo experiment is a disaster which has cost thousands of Christian lives since the NATO intervention in 1999. We must admit our mistake and return Kosovo to Christian Serbia now.

  2. "Anonymous" is entirely correct. Every US administration since Reagan left office has collaborated with our Muslim enemies. I would call it treason.
