    He is an AfD fanboy, just like Elon. You can easily see what kind of people aggregate in that political corner.

    It’s taken less than ten years for him to go from, “help me, Germany, I’m an immigrant,” to, “all immigrants to Germany must die.”

    Why would an Islamophobic, anti-immigration Saudi launch a vehicle attack associated with jihadist terrorism on a German Christmas market? Bizarre.

      "Associated with jihadist terrorism " my friend im guessing you’re not the type to look further then whatever media company throws whatever slop at you.

      The west saw the Jews as the enemies(foreigners who’ve lived in Europe for so long yet discriminated against them so bad the term anti semitism is formed), then the Germans/Nazis (didn’t want a new empire outshining them), then comes the Soviets and now the arabs and chinese.

      All of this to say terrorism is universal and those who link it to jihadis have a point they are trying to justify. In any western nation most of the terrorism is domestic and jihadi terrorisms biggest targets is other Muslims and those who defeated them were mostly Muslim including your bullshit western coalition.

      Free reminder that Saudia Arabia is a good western ally BUT ALSO the literal exporter of “Islamist jihadist” as someone who knows the topic can tell you the real fear are sunni wahabism being spread all over the world by saudi arabia and other gulf nations for self interest.

        What a condescending way to make your point. Of course terrorism doesn’t belong to one ideology.

        I was talking about vehicle ramming attacks specifically, because the deadliest incidents have been Islamist extremists targeting crowded venues in Europe, including the Bastille Day attack on the promenade in Nice and the 2016 attack on another Christmas market in Berlin (which this attack was clearly imitating). I just find it weird that a right-wing anti-immigrant Islamophobe would do a copycat attack like that – it’s like a left-wing Israeli protesting the war in Gaza by suicide-bombing Palestinians in Ramallah.
