CERSKA, Bosnia - The 18-year-old gunman who shot dead five people in a Salt Lake City shopping mall was a survivor of the siege that ended in the Srebrenica massacre of 8,000 Muslims in Bosnia's 1992-95 war, a cousin said on Wednesday.

Sulejman Talovic, who was killed by police after Mondayfs shooting spree in which he also wounded four people, fled his village with his family during the Bosnia war to Srebrenica, a U.N.-protected enclave, Redzo Talovic said.

Wasn't there an earlier article that claimed that the gunman had left Bosnia prior to that event? Has al-Reuters invented this spin?

[Loyal Buckeye]

Tell it to the victims and their families. What a crock.

Bump

Thats the spirit!t....make the perp a victim and a hero./sarcasm

Reuters can be disgusting.

B f'n deal. This Muslim planned and executed this event in my opinion as a terrorist attack. Did he get directions from the folks in the middle east? No, he got his walking orders from the MSM.

[Uncle Hal]

Now the media is making excuses for him going on this killing rampage. Unbelievable. The criminal is never guilty it is always somebody else's fault.

When the Bosnian Serbs overran the town in 1995, taking away and massacring some 8,000 Muslim men and boys, Sulejman and his mother were evacuated by the United Nations and later reunited with his father, Redzo said.

...huh?.....walking orders from the MSM?.....that sounds like what those whacko liberals say....is that fact based or just out of hatred for Muzzies?

[sure_fine]

even if true, do they think this guy was entitled to do what he did?

[JCEccles]

So, he was a victim?

It's all our fault.

[GBA]

Nice way to payback your liberators, the people who took him in and his family.

[pitinkie]

Yes he left 2 yrs before..they are trying their best to make him a sympathetic figure! BS!

[Utah Binger]

Very astute response and, may I say, brilliant by you. What's a Muzzie?

[NorCalRepub]

Muzzie=Muslim

Why aren't the headlines "Clinton created the terrorist who killed 5 in Utah"?

Guess they should have made it an even 8001.

[joan]

Using the war excuse then would make all of them ticking time bombs to explode on innocent people. The can't help themselves and have no personal responsibility for anything bad they ever do.

[RobRoy]

>>Mall gunman survived Bosnian siege<<

Apparently.

[Lazamataz]

Somehow, this will be spun as the fault of the US, for not intervening.

And, of course, the fault of the guns.
