who killed nine people in Munich was obsessed with mass shootings and had an obvious link to Norwegian mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik, German police say.

Police who searched the 18-year-old's room say they found written material on attacks.

The gunman, who later killed himself, had a 9mm Glock pistol and 300 bullets.

Police are investigating whether he may have lured his victims through a Facebook invitation to a restaurant. He is suspected of using a fake account under a girl's name to invite people to the McDonald's restaurant where he launched his attack.

Too soon to draw conclusions but not too soon to conclude no link to international terrorism.

Merkel meeting (or has met) with her National Security Council. Until they decide on “official” version, I guess we have to deal with the conflicts.

Thanks Scania Boy, us English only speakers are at a disadvantage to the multi lingual PC “translations” of the Progressive Uber Leftist Western MSM propagandists.

If he’s just some student who flipped out, who got the gun for him in Germany? He buy it at “Val-mart?”

So much for the probably Sunni who are less likely to commit these acts of terrorism narrative.

Nazis and islamists have a lot in common.

The MSM is likely to call both “ultra conservative.”

Is it just me or does it appear the Merkel administration is trying to make this into a right wing hate crime, and an aberration at the same time?

And vice versa. You should see the translations from English to, for instance, Swedish, of things that are said by politicians in the US. Sloppiness or ill will?

I don't know but I used to interest myself in the disinformation spread by the USSR and there are many similarities to the way things are today. Anyway, sites like FR are great to help us to fight this intentional or unintentional disinformation.

PS: It may well be that this instance of mass shooting has less to do with religion and more to do with mental illness etc. However, it is the duty of both the police authorities and the media to look at all possibilities and not just jump at whatever favourite explanation they can find.

This is important, because if it does turn out that the young man did not commit this atrocity because he was clinically depressed, but he was depressed because someone was trying to convince him to commit this act (a not inconceivable possibility), that means a whole different aspect on how to protect ourselves.

I hope law enforcement is taking a close look at Richard Gutjar!

The only link I could find is that Friday was the five year anniversary of the Norway murders and this Iranian guy also killed teens. Not what I would call obvious.

So he just wanted to prove that he could kill just as good as any non-white person?

The only “obvious link” the police point to is the date.

Apparently yelling out to ones god doesn’t count for anything

I don't believe it is sloppiness, I believe the Western (and some of the Eastern) Main Stream Media is the last refuge of the Progressive Socialist Liar and Communist.

This linkage was put out even before they knew who the killer was or the police checking out his home. The narrative is that this is a mentally ill person who was extremely right wing. Forget he yelled out Allahu Akbar. And forget the fact that a week earlier an ISIS follower stabbed and axed five people on a German train.

The linkage to the Norway murders is no different than Hillary blaming the attack of Benghazi to an online video. Deceit and lies.

Ridiculous. The real Nazis would have given a one way ticket to a concentration camp had he been in Germany.

They are looking for ways to blame it on something other than Islam.

The EU governments are trying to white-wash Islam to the point of ignoring mass rapes. Strained associations for one gunman is nothing compared to that.
