Several times he yelled "
Allahu Akbar" plus
"jihad" according to both ABC and FOXNews. Yep, I also wonder why we kowtow before these people?

"Authorities in the U.S. and Germany are scrambling to determine whether the shooting attack Wednesday that killed two U.S. airmen at the airport in Frankfurt was an act of terrorism"
They are trying to figure out if it was an act of terrorism???????? What the heck was it, an accidental discharge? He was carrying the "unloaded" firearm into the terminal and it discharged on its own????

It is being reported that the FN 9mm pistol jammed. The 22 year old service man who the terrorist pointed it at and pulled the trigger when it jammed, ran after him and tackled him inside the airport. There were six bullets left in the magazine.
I have never had a FTF with any of my FN's, so this young serviceman hero, can imagine that God has more plans for him.

Oh, I believe he's outraged. Outraged that we won't shut up and think only what he tells us to.

I was in Germany on business last week when this happened. It barely made the local news and I heard no talk of it in social circles. I read about it in USA Today in the hotel or I wouldn't have known about it. It was almost like a non-event. A sharp contract to US news outlets.
