BBC Scrubs ‘Ali’ From Munich Killer’s Name On TV, In Articles, AND On Social Media
Breitbart London ^ | 7/23/16 | RAHEEM KASSAM

Posted on 07/23/2016 11:45:53 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

The BBC has unilaterally chosen not to report the Munich attacker’s full name, in what appears to be an attempt to scrub any Muslim or Islamic heritage link to its coverage of the incident. Most sources at this point suggest that Ali David Sonboly – the Munich attacker who targeted children and killed nine yesterday – is not connected to radical Islam, but the BBC has gone to extraordinary lengths to try to keep any reference to his heritage out of its coverage, opting to name him only as “David Sonboly”.

Other news organisations including the Wall Street Journal, Independent, Daily Mail, and Sky News named the attacker as “Ali David Sonboly” or “David Ali Sonboly”. CNN even referred to him simply as “Ali Sonboly”.

Maybe he went by his middle name.

The essential point is true though - the standard media coverup is on display again.

First he was touted as a right wing racist neo-nazi.

Now they have fallen back to a mentally disturbed loner.

After the lights are out and attention has moved on, we will likely hear of his radical associations.

Somebody got him that illegal gun with serial number filed off. Two other young middle eastern-looking guys were photographed in cuffs.

I have seen that it might not be David at all, but Da’houd.

Wait until the lying msm drops the "i" in Ali so they can call him Al David. Heck, lets just call him Al David Smith.

These people are terrorist enablers.

Before his middle name was released (David or Da'houd) classmates were discussing him online. They knew him by his first name and no mention of his middle.

Social activists parading as journalists.

Exactly. This is now acceptable in liberal J Schools across the country. Actual journalism is now an avocation as opposed to a skilled profession. They should be called political advocates with access to newsrooms.

Nobody ever knew him as David.
His name was Ali Da’Houd.

The BBC thought they would help us translate it into a nice Jewish sounding name. Just trying to be helpful.

Munich terrorist’s full name is Ali Dau’d Sonboly. It’s Dau’d, not David. Dau’d was also the name of a prophet in Islam. In Bible it’s David.

Most of the media is functioning as the enemy’s propaganda central.

“BBC Scrubs ‘Ali’ From Munich Killer’s Name On TV, In Articles, AND On Social Media”

They long ago scrubbed Hussein from Ob@stard’s name.

Social activists parading as journalists.

Good characterization...but it's worse than that.

These are dishonorable, lying media who eagerly blotted up the blood of children and swept their body parts, then return to reloading the bullet chambers of Islam's mass murdering jihadist, Ali David Sonboly, who shouted, "ALLAHU AKBAR!" as he empties his magazine.

These media whores and EU and Democrat politicians are accessories to mass murder and the HOT war waged by death-cult Muslim Jihadists.

Ali David Sonboly – is characterized as "the Munich attacker"; that is a misnomer.

Ali David Sonboly is Muslim terrorist who is actually a Turkish Muslim Mass MURDERER of CHILDREN.

because it needs to be said and repeated, Ali David Sonboly is a Muslim jihadist who praised Allah as his gunned down innocent children. He profanes and dishonors the nationality and good people of his suicidal adopted nation: Germany.

I won’t say it’s impossible that kid from a Muslim background could go a shooting spree for reasons other than terrorism.

But raise your hand if you buy this? My hand is down. There is already a history in Germany of covering up this stuff to avoid having the people wake up and elect people who will eject the jihadis.

fake journalism.

Why not just make up a whole new name for him?

Call him "Reginald Cabot" or some such.
