It is obvious that the sniper is NOT French. If he had been ... he would have surrendered by now
To: Tumbleweed_Connection
Now he's from Yugoslavia. Interesting.

I bet his first name is "patsy"

Well...make enough jokes about cheese and I'd suppose anyone would snap.

...French Deserter... I am sure that isn't the first time that those two words have appeared next to each other. 8^)~
Surely won't be the last

You're right of course. Reports earlier said he was a Yugoslavian national in the French Army. If he was a Serb I believe he might hold a grudge for US involvement in that war and if he's muslim, well it goes without saying what his motivation would be.

French terrorism... now I've seen everything. Not only that, but they don't even send us a lousy Renault or Citroen terrorist. They send us a Yugo terrorist. No wonder Moose is in charge... it's the cheese! If true, this is very series.

A propos dude, I love those French desserts!

I posted a while ago my theory on who the sniper was on one of the various sniper threads. I felt the biggest clue was his ability to shoot women and children. The only place I remember this taking place on a large scale was in Sarajevo.

...tentative "robot portrait"
? ? ?

That rifle is a FAMAS... A French "Bullpup" style rifle similar in size to the Steyer AUG, and the British L82A1.
Stay armed,

The 5:00 sniper update has been cancelled.

Bear in Mind this guy is NOT french, he is yugoslavian, which I think means he's probably serbian, he served in the french forces, probably got the training, he may be muslim, and he's gone.

Surrendered, or attempted to improperly shoot the rifle with the barrel firmly lodged in his shoulder.
To: Raven6
Yes, a FAMAS. Best deal on a used rifle in the world. Never fired, only thrown down once...
