Simultaneous terrorist attacks around Paris...Vol. Here we go again.Update 07/14/16 p42: Nice terror

ISIS this week claimed responsibility for an attack that authorities now say was perpetrated by a man the terrorist group would ordinarily want to violently murder, not champion.

According to reports, Mohamed Bouhlel, the man who drove a truck into a Bastille Day parade in Nice, killing at least 84 people, was actually bisexual. In a stunning turn of events, ISIS—which ordinarily puts gay and bisexual men to death—apparently did not vet its latest hero before reflexively claiming responsibility for his actions.

Calling Bouhlel a “soldier,” ISIS put out a statement explaining he had responded to “calls to target nations of coalition states that are fighting (Isis).”

There’s no evidence to indicate Bouhlel, who was Muslim, was actually operating on behalf of or in allegiance to ISIS, though friends and family say he had recently become radicalized. But authorities say there is evidence that he lived life openly as a bisexual man.

Cops Say Nice Attacker, Championed by ISIS as a Devout Muslim, Was Bisexual

According to France’s BFMTV, investigators have gleaned that Bouhlel—who left at least 84 people dead in the French city—had a busy sex life, with pictures of both female and male conquests on his phone. Bisexuality, or homosexuality, is forbidden in Islam, although interviews with Bouhlel’s friends and relatives in Nice have revealed that he did not behave, at least until recently, like a devout Muslim.

Nice Attacker Mohamed Bouhlel Was 'Bisexual,' Investigators Say


And I bolded a part for a certain, dense NTer to read. But anyways...this is certainly an interesting turn of events. Self-hatred, much like the Orlando shooter.
 
I think it's difficult to just pin this simply on self-hatred. I'd even go to say it's probably wrong.

The Orlando shooter had a very clear story, and specifically targeted a gay nightclub. He lived his life in the closet and it had probably been brewing for a long time before it actually happened. This dude supposedly lived his life as an open bisexual, and had a very active sex life. And Islam didn't really have much to do with his life until extremely recently.

He was also described as a petty and violent criminal who had done time before. No different than others who have a much higher predisposition in Europe to get radicalized than their Muslim counterparts who have higher socioeconomic status.

As clueless as he is, ninja right with the gang analogy. But instead of being racist and trying to imply that blacks and Latinos have a genetic predisposition that causes them to join gangs, people address the root as socioeconomic/psychosocial issues on the individual level. And then political ones at the higher level.

But I'm not ruling out that something related to his homosexuality had a part to do with the attack. I just doubt it had nearly the same significance as the Orlando attack.

I think there were other factors as well...crumbing family life played a role, IMO. You combine that w/ self-hatred and whatever else he was looking at online, and it's a recipe for disaster.

Multiple people were killed and others injured in at least one shooting in Munich’s city center late Friday. Police were unable to say how many people were killed or whether reports of multiple shootings were accurate.

Witness accounts indicated there was more than one attacker. Munich police said signs point to a shooting “rampage” and that they didn’t know where the attackers are.

German media has reported multiple casualties and a large police presence at the Olympia-Einkaufszentrum shopping center. A police spokeswoman said the shopping center was being evacuated and that the perpetrator or perpetrators were possibly still in or near the building. The first emergency call came in at 5:53 p.m. local time, she added.

Munich Transit Agency said all subway, bus, and tram service has been halted.

The attack would be the second in less than a week in Germany. An ax-wielding 17-year-old Afghan migrant wounded four people in an attack on a regional train near Wuerzburg on Monday evening.

IS claims responsibility for 2 suicide bombings during a protest march in Kabul, Afghanistan.

At least 61 dead, 200 wounded
 
Smh my dad was telling me he was worried something would happen during that yesterday. Actually a lot of the people there were considered. This **** is out of control. And the only winners are the military industrial complex.
 
My family is Afghan. My dad said before the Russians invaded nobody looked at each other by their ethnicity or if they were Sunni or Shia.

There's been a clear initiative taken by the powers at be around the world to keep the working class and for lack of a better term, the 99% divided.

Over here it's Black/White, Muslim/Everyone else. In Afghanistan it's Shia/Sunni, and the many ethnic groups there. Everyone is made into pawns of the ruling class' game.
