Possibly also known as Muhammad something?

Germany has the largest Muslim population in Western Europe after France. Approximately 3.0 to 3.5 million Muslims live in Germany, and 80% of them do not have German citizenship; 608,000 are German citizens.1 100,000 of them are German converts to Islam.2 Recent statistics show a continuing increase in their numbers

No one has pointed out that pilot credentials can be stolen; see the link below. If no one knew this copilot by sight, perhaps he was killed and his credentials used by a terrorist.

The Captain has an emergency access code to gain entry when the cockpit door is locked. It can be intentionally disabled from within the cockpit.

Three cities come up in the history of this co-pilot so far:

Fox reported he had a FB page but it has been taken down. Is it available on “wayback”?
Makes me question what they are keeping from us: Names from a cell? ( either nazi or muslim? Iirc they worked together during WWII)
Doing investigation and not giving his “friends” a heads up would make it less conspicuous before rounding up.

Co-pilot lived with parents, keeping a flat in Duesseldorf.

I read his parents have been questioned, and police have Montabaur under guard.

I am feeling extremely sad for these 150 passengers and crew.
Prayers for the families and victims.
RIP for all.

Lufthansa is now going to be in major legal hurt mode now....

see my link at #127 re stolen pilot credentials used in the US. I agree there is a strong aroma of the religion of pieces. I keep remembering Lockerbie and how no one wanted to admit it was terrorism. Took years of investigation.

Translation from http://www.pi-news.net/2015/03/german-wings-absturz-kapitaen-aus-cockpit-ausgesperrt-suizid-des-co-piloten/

"The West German politicians knew from the beginning that this was not a technical defect , but a deliberately induced guided suicide (for whatever reason) . Because otherwise is not to explain why France has chased 3 interceptor behind the Boeing . They had scared of an attack on a nuclear power plant. Merkel and FRG leaders went on the Ars.h Grundeis that this was an Islamic attack , so the comic reactions of Merkel and FRG politicians . The political elite BRD was in total panic , and was afraid of the consequences !!! Now it will continue as before , Islam = peace , Islam is part of Germany , the Islamization does not occur. But I did not stop an Islam do not rule out anyway, now more than ever! I believe that nothing more ! 7 nuclear facilities within a few minutes of flight http://www.blogs.ausgestrahlt.de/wp-content/upload"

[He can be heard breathing, but what is the evidence he was awake and aware of what he was doing?]

The fact that he actively over rode the Captain’s emergency access to the cockpit. The fact that he purposely took the plane out of autopilot and purposely flew it directly into a mountain.

“No one has pointed out that pilot credentials can be stolen; see the link below. If no one knew this copilot by sight, perhaps he was killed and his credentials used by a terrorist.”

I was speculating along these lines as well. Did Lubitz fly with this particular crew before?

I’ll rule out ‘gay’ just for starters.

That leaves “muslim, etc.”

The ‘etc’ part could be anything from psychotic to sociopath.
Both kinda rare types.

That just leaves the ‘muslim’ part................
