Saudi Man Who Mowed Down 200+ People Was Reportedly Mad At Refugee Treatment In Germany

German law enforcement officials were repeatedly warned by Saudi Arabia that a man who drove into 200+ people at a Christmas event in Germany on Friday night was dangerous — warnings that Germany’s leftist government ignored.

CNN reported that the chief of the Magdeburg Public Prosecutor’s office, Horst Walter Nopens, said that 50-year-old doctor Taleb al-Abdulmohsen may have been “disgruntlement with the way Saudi Arabian refugees are treated in Germany.”

He is accused of driving a car down a road that was completely packed with people who were at a Christmas market in Magdeburg. At least 5 people have died and more than 40 had life threatening injuries.

Saudi Arabia sent three warnings about the suspect to the German government, warning that he had posted extremist views online and was a threat to their security. Saudi Arabia first warned Germany about the man in 2007, just one year after he entered the country, and requested in 2007 and 2008 that he be extradited back to Saudi Arabia.

Mainstream publications latched onto statements that he made online where he claimed that he was aggressively anti-Islam and that he supported the country’s anti-immigration party, the AfD.

However, there have been serious questions raised about whether he was being serious with his posts or if he was trying to deceive people on social media.

Several Iranian dissidents suggested online that the suspect actually was an Islamic extremist and that he was lying about what he really believed.

According to Germany’s Bild newspaper, police intervened and broke up a demonstration of right-wing Germans who protested after the attack.

German publications called them “right-wing extremists” who shouted “disgusting slogans.”

The slogans that were shouted included, “Anyone who doesn’t love Germany should leave Germany,” “Migration kills,” “We must take back our cities, our villages and our homeland,” “Deport, deport, deport,”  and “Resistance.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
