The suspect in the Magdeburg terror attack is understood to be a migrant from Saudi Arabia by the name of Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen.
According to the German state broadcaster DW, at least two people have been confirmed dead, and up to 60 more are reported injured after a car rammed into a Christmas market in the city of Magdeburg.

While details about the killer's identity are still being investigated, Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen was reportedly granted asylum in Germany in 2016 after fleeing from his native Saudi Arabia because he longer believed in Islam.
In an interview with the BBC back in 2019, Taleb explained how he had set up a website to help people flee Gulf states such as Saudi Arabia and move to Germany.
"Hi, my name's Taleb," he said in the video currently circulating across social media. "I'm from Saudi Arabia. I'm an activist. I created a website to help people seeking asylum, especially from Saudi Arabia and the Gulf region."

The BBC reported at the time:
Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen lives in Germany now – but there was once a time where he lived and worked in Saudi Arabia, and was incapable of safely expressing his atheism.
After successfully seeking asylum in Germany, he decided to set up the website wearesaudis.net to create an information resource for others to do the same.
It’s now a go-to resource for people all over the Arab region – but why are most of the people that approach Taleb for help women?
We spoke to an Emirati woman - we're calling her Dina to protect her identity - about how she used Taleb’s site and the ex-Muslim online network to escape.
Given Al-Abdulmohsen's apparent disdain for Islam, it is unclear exactly what his motivations were in carrying out such a heinous crime.
There is speculation that he may have suffered from mental illness, after uncovered social media posts showed him including the blaming the German governemnt for the “killing of Socrates" as well as leading a political persecution against him.

He’s an ANTI-Muslim. NOT a Muslim.
They’re REALLY DESPERATE to put this mass killing to bed without affecting their Population Replacement Program - and they are really good at it!
“Faithful Muslim. Most Muslims support what he did.”
Muslims in Europe often despise Christmas, but I don’t think most would support such murder.
“They’re REALLY DESPERATE to put this mass killing to bed without affecting their Population Replacement Program - and they are really good at it!”
The Muslim religion is both fixed and highly intolerant.
One shouldn’t put wolves in sheep pens.
I still contend that it’s a muslim terror attack.
You can take the muslim out of his country but can’t take the islam out of the muslim.
These people are like pit bulls. They are ticking time bombs that can snap at any time, but people refuse to talk about it or do anything about it.
Maybe he decided to go back to Islam and atone for his apostasy.
Or maybe he is mentally ill.
“Suspect in Magdeburg Terror Attack is Saudi Activist Who Helped Migrants Flee to Germany — Once Featured in BBC Interview Renouncing Islam ‘
Isn’t it interesting how quickly and diligently the propaganda organs try to distance him from Islam?
You see, you islamophobes, this has nothing to do with Islam!
There is an Islamic saying; “War is deceit.”
Media trying to say he is an anti-Muslim activist.
Dude should have pushed the button…it would have been a remarkable false flag event.
Probably not.
If he’s from Saudi Arabia, he was probably not Shi’ite.
Taqiyya is Shi’ite, not Sunni.
I agree with you.
Probably mentally ill.
Taqiyya is Shi’ite.
He’s probably not a Shi’ite.
“Taqiyya is Shi’ite.
He’s probably not a Shi’ite”
Taqiyya is Islam. If you are Muslim then you often practice Taqiyya because in-Muslims are always the enemy. Shouldn’t you be performing the haj instead of posting on FR?
As a result of the political consequences of the upcoming elections where AFD leads, and in an absurd reaction therein, the German officials are claiming that Saudi immigrant Taleb al-Abdulmohsen was an “Islamophobic” follower of Islam, who was a supporter of the nationalist AfD (anti-Islam) party. None of that makes any sense.
“The terrorist was “Islamophobic” but chose to target Christians at a Christmas Market, to protest the Islamization of Germany?”
Anyone that claims this makes sense is either a moron or is lying through their teeth.
Maybe you should read this article from American Thinker and get your head straight.
His renunciation of Islam was obviously Taqiyya.
I read Daily Mail and they attributed his attack to Islamaphobia. I believe that’s hatred of Islam.
He is Saudi Arabian, from what I read, but left because he wasn’t a Muslim. Not a safe position to take in a country fond of executing large numbers of free thinkers. As well as criminals.
Haven’t seen American Thinker yet. Will change opinion if I read something different, of course.
Saudis ‘tipped off Germany about attacker THREE times’: Christmas market suspect was ‘prepared to die’ and had ‘taken drugs’ before carnage that left five dead - as house is searched and UK police share warning
An adult and a toddler are among those killed after an anti-Islam doctor rammed into a massive crowd of shoppers at a Christmas market in Magdeburg at around 7pm on December 20 with a dark BMW. Psychologist Taleb al-Abdulmohsen, who arrived in Germany in 2006 as a refugee from Saudi Arabia, was arrested on Friday evening at the site of the attack and was taken into custody. Saudi Arabia recently issued three warnings about al-Abdulmohsen to German security authorities, according to German newspaper Spiegel. A source also told Reuters that Germany was warned about the attacker after he posted extremist views on social media that threatened peace and security.
From the perspective of the German government, this terrorist attack could not have come at a worse time. The German Parliament collapsed last week with a no confidence vote, which means an election in early February is required. The economy and immigration are the two biggest issues amid the German citizenry.
The terrorist attack by Saudi immigrant Abdulmohsen makes the rise of AfD, the nationalist party and the strongest opposition group on the issues of highest priority, more likely. The current German government are freaking out.
As a resul of the political consequences, and in an absurd reaction therein, the German officials are claiming that Saudi immigrant Taleb al-Abdulmohsen was an “Islamophobic” follower of Islam, who was a supporter of the nationalist AfD (anti-Islam) party. None of that makes any sense.
When contrast against the strong likelihood that Saudi Arabia warned German of the unstable mindset of Abdulmohsen, and when you consider the outrage amid the German people, well, the current German government appears to be panicked and grasping for any straw that might deflect the already embattled ruling party from the consequences of their liberal immigration policy.
Things in Germany are totally ridiculous right now.
(Via Politico EU) – […] Chancellor Olaf Scholz, whose center-left party looks set to lose power in February, described the attack as a “terrible, insane act” and said “those who want to sow hatred” wouldn’t win.
But Scholz faces important questions over the next few days about what was known of the suspect, his identity was confirmed by prosecutors as Taleb Al Abdulmohsen. While prosecutors gave almost no details about the suspect, German media said Abdulmohsen is a 50-year-old Saudi Arabian psychiatrist who moved to Germany in 2006.
The Magdeburg chief prosecutor, Horst Walter Nopens, did indicate a Saudi connection.
“It looks like the background to the crime could have been … dissatisfaction with the treatment of Saudi Arabian refugees in Germany,” Nopens told a press conference on Saturday. “But what is deeper behind this is the subject of the investigation,” he said.
Interior Minister Nancy Faeser said the authorities can “say with certainty that the perpetrator was obviously Islamophobic.”
The chief prosecutor said the suspect is in police custody and has made a statement about the motive for the crime, but he declined to give any details about that statement. The investigators “do not yet know whether it was a terrorist attack,” Nopens said.
[…] German Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck described the attack as “terrible news” in a place “where people wanted to spend the Advent season in peace and community.” Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock expressed shock at the incident, and sent condolences to the victims and their families.

Think about the ridiculous logic pushed in the governing narrative:
Good grief, even the FBI would be blushing at this level of twisted narrative engineering.
