This is ghastly. And I wish people on FR threads wouldn’t joke about it. When you look at the photos, there are literally bodies piled up against the wall, debris (some is probably body parts) and fires everywhere, and it’s sure not something we’d want to see in any of our airports ever.
It said this happened in the international arrivals area, so I imagine the Muslims just joined the crowd that would have been standing around the exit door waiting for friends or family to arrive. What an evil “religion” that is.
I’m surprised they chose the baggage claim area. People tend to be even more densely packed in while lining up for departures and you usually don’t have to undergo any screening to get into the initial check-in area for departures. Although some baggage claim areas can be accessed by the public, in many large airports (Toronto for example), non-passengers cannot enter the baggage claim area and there is a security official posted at the exit.
