They make a statement that he had 'obvious' connections.

Then they fail to produce a shred of evidence.

IOW, more lies.

NBC Nightly led with the “right wing Nazi” theory.
They knew better.

Berlin Freeper:

I assume your German is impeccable, so let's look at these two statements: The first one from Die Welt:

Es handelt sich um einen 18-Jährigen, der in München geboren wurde und aufgewachsen ist. Der Täter ist noch Schüler. "Es gibt keinerlei Anhaltspunkte zu einem Bezug zum IS", heißt es. Der Täter habe sich aber mit dem Thema Amok beschäftigt. In seinem Zimmer wurden Zeitungsartikel gefunden, die sich mit Amoklagen befasst haben. Darunter auch ein Buch. "Amok im Kopf. Warum Schüler töten." Desweiteren wurde EDV-Material beschlagnahmt, welches ausgewertet wird.

A rough translation of the bolded sentences:

"We have not found any connection to ISIS. However, the culprit has been very interested in the theme of "Amok"-shooting rampages. In his room we found several newspaper articles about rampages. we also found a book with the title: "Amok in the head. Why students kill".

So, unless I totally misunderstand this, the police has so far found magazines, newspapers and books dealing with shootings - but nothing specific about Breivik. His computer, phone etc will be checked, but no results as yet.

Second piece, this from Der Speigel:

Der Täter habe sich intensiv mit dem Thema Amok beschäftigt, daher gehen die Ermittler davon aus, dass er sich auch mit dem Fall Breivik beschäftigt habe. Das liege auf der Hand, sagt Polizeipräsident Andrä. Freitag war der fünfte Jahrestag des Amoklaufs in Norwegen.

My translation: The culprit has interested himself in mass shootings, therefore the investigators assume that he also has interested himself in the Breivik case. That's obvious, says Chief of Police Andrä. Yesterday was the fifth anniversary of the mass shootings in Norway.

Now, you can go back to the BBC piece, check the first page of the Daily Telegraph etc etc and see how a false story is made.

And in the meantime the witness statement that he shouted Allah Akbar when he started shooting in the restaurant is totally forgotten.
