2016-12-20 | |||
Update from yesterday's news... [NYDAILYNEWS] ISIS had not taken responsibility for the Berlin crash as of Monday night. A passenger in the vehicle, which had a smashed windshield, was among those killed in the crash. The truck itself is owned by a Polish man, whose cousin told broadcaster TVN24 that he feared the vehicle had been hijacked. One witness described seeing bodies beneath the truck. German authorities were slow to call the incident terrorism, or even intentional.
But diplomats and leaders from other countries wasted no time condemning the attack. Ned Price, a front man for the U.S. National Security Council, said in a strongly worded statement that the incident "appears to have been a terrorist attack." "The United States condemns in the strongest terms what appears to have been a terrorist attack on a Christmas Market in Berlin, Germany, which has killed and maimed dozens," Price said in a statement. "Germany is one of our closest partners and strongest allies, and we stand together with Berlin in the fight against all those who target our way of life and threaten our societies." President-elect Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... tweeted about the attack before issuing an official statement.
"These snuffies and their regional and worldwide networks must be eradicated from the face of the earth, a mission we will carry out with all freedom-loving partners." German Minister of Justice Heiko Maas said that he mourned with the families of the victims and was looking into the cause.
...current chancellor of Germany. She was educated in East Germany when is was still run by commies, but in 1989 got involved with the growing democracy movement when the Berlin Wall fell. Merkel is sometimes referred to by Germans as Mom... , who championed the cause of Syrian refugees and has accepted hundreds of thousands of them since last year. "When will the German state of law strike back? When will this cursed hypocrisy finally stop? These are Merkel's dead," said Marcus Pretzell of anti-immigrant Alternative for Germany, one of many parties that will challenge the chancellor in next year’s elections. "We mourn the dead and hope the many injured can be helped," Merkel’s front man, Steffen Seibert, said on Twitter. | |||
