There was no known motive for the shooting in Germany's third-largest city, which went into lockdown with transport halted and highways sealed off immediately after the attack on Friday evening.

***

German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said the motive for the attack was not yet clear.

"The motives for this abhorrent act have not yet been completely clarified - we still have contradictory clues," he said in a statement.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility but supporters of Islamic State celebrated on social media.

"The Islamic state is expanding in Europe," read one tweet.

It seems that Muslims do not require motive

...somewhere there has to be a common factor in all of these. But what could it be? What?

Hmmmm.... I think I'm on to something.... Chicken nuggets?

His own children would have to be the victims before idiots like this will finally "get it".

CNN just reported he is an immigrant from Iran, but a German citizen.

That would harmonize the the shouting “Allah hu Akhbar” and him yelling “I am German.”

So probably Shi’a, therefore probably not ISIS, but more like a Hezbollah enthusiast.

Which, in turn, points to the fact that at root, there are some things in Islamic theology that transcends all these groups. While we need to go after the groups, we also need to recognize there is a fundamental ideological and theological root to all this terrorism from the Islamic world, and we need to deal with that.

...and they certainly don’t ask “what WAS their motive” 10,000 times. The formerly free nations are led by the most incredible bunch of morons imaginable. Let’s pray that’s about to come to an end in the US of A.

They still are calling him a German and playing down his Iranian background and citizenship. I read that as of this morning there (now) Merkel still hasn’t pledged solidarity with Munich like Obama did 12 hrs ago.

So unclear. Totally so.

Incorrect.

The motive is the excessive availability of guns in America.

You underestimate the loyalty of the Globalists/Elitists.

They could be PERSONALLY killed, and their dying gasps would be "....this....was caused.... by.... brexxxiiiitttt.....(dies)"

You’re right. Fox dumped the story quickly when the Muslim part came out.

No motive. Muzzard kills normal people. Motive unknown. Truth: politicians don’t want us to realize our replacements not only take our money but are killing us.

Daily Mail as well as CNN reported the perp calling out "Allahu Akbar" in the McDonalds while shooting children. Bastards in "authority" just won't acknowledge the obvious. We all know why.
