AND AGAIN, ISIS – AT 10:17 A.M. ET: A new attack in Germany was clearly carried out by someone radicalized by ISIS. From Britain's Sun:
A SYRIAN migrant who killed himself and injured 12 others after setting off a bomb in front of a wine bar in Germany recorded a video on his phone pledging allegiance to ISIS.
The attacker, who was due to be deported to Bulgaria, also had violent videos on his phone in one of which he committed himself to the Islamic State’s leader.
The bomber, who was denied asylum in the country last year, had originally tried to get into a music festival hosting 2,500 people in the southern city of Ansbach – but was turned away as he had no ticket.
After being turned away the bomber walked to a nearby bar in the centre of Ansbach to set off the deadly device, which was packed with metal.
It has now emerged that the bomber was due to be deported to Bulgaria from Germany.
The attacker is being named locally as Mohamed Deleel and was already known to police for possession of drugs and also spent time in a psychiatric facility having attempted suicide twice before.
Residents at the man’s asylum shelter have described him as a “lying attention seeker”.
COMMENT: This happened over the weekend, the third attack in Germany in the last week. But of course we must not jump to conclusions about Islamic terrorism. He may have been shortchanged in a beer hall, which would certainly make his actions understandable...to Barack Obama.
