From the article linked in #5:

Reports also suggest that the teenager changed his WhatsApp profile picture to infamous mass murderer Anders Breivik, who killed 77 people in Norway on 22 July, 2011.

Mr Andrae said there was an ‘obvious’ link between the shocking massacre on Friday and the fifth anniversary of Breivik’s attacks.

That article in post #5 gives more detail than I've seen anywhere else. Apart from the alleged "Allahu Akbar" shouts, there is little to suppose a religious motivation, but the police might just be suppressing that angle.

It is interesting that in this article the alleged bullying of the shooter came from "Arabic and Turkish" students, not ethnic Germans. This might end up being more analogous to the Columbine massacre than to any classic Islamist act. And despite Shepard Smith, it was NOT a neo-Nazi act.

Yep. I thought there were similarities. But Sonboly wasn’t a rightwing extremist like behring. Somewhat mirrored him but unlike Behring wasn’t espousing any particular ideology.
