Good news for AfD though.  :(

Some background to the perpetrator..... https://www.euronews.com/2024/12/21/who-is-the-suspect-behind-magdeburg-christmas-market-attack
And because he's an immigrant from Saudi Arabia, it's still going to be good news for the AfD

Horrible. Very sad news.

My kids were in Germany at Christmas markets a few days ago.
Quite handy with weapons - available for hire to defeat money laundering crooks around the world.

Sounds so weird - he hates Islam and supports AfD...so he thinks mowing down people at a Christmas market is publicity for AfD and by being a Saudi who mows down innocent people, he will get Europeans to hate Saudis and support AfD?

German terrorism expert Peter Neumann remarked on the unusual profile of the suspect. “After 25 years in this ‘business’, you think nothing could surprise you anymore. But a 50-year-old Saudi ex-Muslim living in East Germany, loves the AfD and wants to punish Germany for its tolerance towards Islamists — that wasn’t on my radar,” said Neumann, director of the International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation and Political Violence at King’s College in London.

Agree, it's hard to begin to understand. But then perhaps we 'understand' attacks that we think make sense too easily.

Utterly bleak.

No he is not. He is a psychiatrist.

Even more difficult to understand how he turns from psychotherapy to (alleged) indiscriminate murderer.
