    • Times of the Caliphate: “Muslim residents have reportedly been urged to celebrate communally, open their doors and put on their taqiyahs when outside.

      Communists make people disappear randomly to strike terror: islam rapes and mutilates and offers sweets for submission. Sociopaths and psychopaths using two different methods to achieve the same cryptic sociodiversity. Likewise, sexualpaths give and then take security blankets away from children for intimate confessions.

      This weak underbelly keeps growing to find someone else to blame for their lost souls. And it will never be to face the devils that created them – for these are protected as Preferentials by Law.

    • I would have been closer to the buildings but other then that he was holding the weapon like a soldier would. I would need more video to make a more definitive statement. The moving down the middle of the street could mean this is his first action and he is letting Hollywood over ride his training.

      I did see prior planning in the ambush and in this day and age usually means someone in the group is either a student of military history or has training.

      • There’s no need to take cover if you’re shooting at unarmed people. And if you’re close to buildings, you may not see some of the targets. It makes sense to walk down the middle of the street in that situation.

        The way he walks looks odd to me btw, he takes small steps and is slow. Maybe it’s just the camera angle, but it looks like he’s weighed down by the bags and rifle. The shopping bag looks ridiculously clumsy btw, you’d expect a backpack / tactical vest. He knows how to fire his rifle and cock his gun, but otherwise he doesn’t look trained to me.

        Have you seen the video of the shooter filmed from above? He’s running close to the buildings, on the left side. When he shoots, it seems he’s not shouldering the weapon, not even using his sights.
        I don’t know who he’s shooting at in that clip. But I assume it’s not police, or he’d take cover, kneel or go prone.

    • Probably Grey Wolves or Grey Wolf trained.

      Your question about military training: He had some type of training but not as much as a full soldier would. The training could be 2nd or 3rd hand with the fully trained personal training people who then go out and train others who go out and train others. This would be the way if they were very security conscious, something we don’t know if they are. I remember seeing articles abut the “Right Wing” giving military training to their supporters and I have seen a lot of training in the way the original invaders (several years back) marched into Europe in disciplined units with everyone keeping their position and interval.

      This was a large scale terror attack with more then one shooter in each position, that requires some type of training to prevent friendly fire during the shooting.

      Why do I think you are going to be asking that question many times over the next year or so?

    • The training in the comment above is what would be given by a soldier or terrorist who is in a nation where the police would really frown on civilians getting any type of military or weapons training. You recruit who you can (preferably no letting them know your real identity) give them what training you can (preferably no letting them know your real identity) plan the missions and then let combat sort the troops. Its brutal but it’s all you can do when you are training inside the nation you are attacking. This is what the PKK did with the foreign volunteers that went to Turkey to fight ISIS.

      In the 1860s the foreign merchants in Shanghai hired Fred Ward to recruit an army of mercs to fight the Taiping rebels that the Imperial Chinese Army couldn’t defeat (they had been fighting them for well over 10 years) Ward recruited on the docks straight off the ships gave them no training and let combat sort out the incompetent ones. Just as he had achieved the army he wanted Ward was severely wounded, the British Army gave George (Chinese) Gordon leave to take over the army and in less then a year Gordon had defeated the Taipings.

      Here is the movie about how Gordon died, it is fairly close to the facts of history

      • If the GW want to train some would-be terrorist, they’d just bring him to Turkey. It’s a few hrs flight from Austria, and a popular holiday destination. Both europeans and turkish immigrants go there all the time, so it wouldn’t look suspicious in the slightest. And they’re organised and have money, so they probably have a camp somewhere. Maybe they could even use military facilities.
        The GW are pretty professional, they have ties to the state, and some members are turkish maffia and special forces. They have trained assassins in their ranks, while this guy seems an amateur.
        Also, this type of chaotic attack is not their MO, they usually go for targeted assassinations. When they want mass casualties, they organise a pogrom. Multiple shooters, a few grenades, maybe a car bomb. For example:

        I’ve read that the attacker pledged his allegiance to ISIS. That seems far more likely, anyway I expect things to become clearer in the next few days.

    • .”Mr President,

      Allow me to address you at this hour in which the fate of the whole world is being threatened by a global conspiracy against God and humanity.

      I write to you as an Archbishop, as a Successor of the Apostles, as the former Apostolic Nuncio to the United States of America.

      I am writing to you in the midst of the silence of both civil and religious authorities.

      May you accept these words of mine as the “voice of one crying out in the desert” (Jn 1:23).”

      “A global plan called the Great Reset is underway.

      Its architect is a global élite that wants to subdue all of humanity, imposing coercive measures with which to drastically limit individual freedoms and those of entire populations.”

      “The purpose of the Great Reset is the imposition of a health dictatorship aiming at the imposition of liberticidal measures, hidden behind tempting promises of ensuring a universal income and cancelling individual debt.”l
      The price of these concessions from the International Monetary Fund will be the renunciation of private property and adherence to a program of vaccination against Covid-19 and Covid-21 promoted by Bill Gates with the collaboration of the main pharmaceutical groups.”

      “Those who do not accept these measures will be confined in detention camps or placed under house arrest, and all their assets will be confiscated.”

      “The blackmailable nature of Joe Biden – just like that of the prelates of the Vatican’s “magic circle” – will expose him to be used unscrupulously, allowing illegitimate powers to interfere in both domestic politics as well as international balances.”

      “Place your trust in the Lord, strengthened by the words of the Apostle Paul: “I can do all things in Him who strengthens me” (Phil 4:13).”

      “With this heavenly hope and the assurance of my prayer for you, for the First Lady, and for your collaborators, with all my heart I send you my blessing.

      God bless the United States of America!

      + Carlo Maria Viganò

      Tit. Archbishop of Ulpiana”

  1. Most of us guessed this was happening. BTW we have had multiple large MS windows updates over the past 10 days and I am curious about the insertion of mal/spyware being officially incorporated into such updates.
    Would this be detectible by antivirals etc.? I do doubt this as most such producers of such would not dare rock the windows boat.
    TBH my paranoia makes me wonder about the timing of such as I do not trust MS or Gates.

    • Its probably past time to learn LINUX. I hear its pretty user friendly now and a LOT of pro software is available for it, much of it free.

      Some people even run it on Macs.

  2. He was a 20-year-old born and raised in the city who was known to intelligence as one of 90 Austrian Islamic radicals who wanted to travel to Syria, one national newspaper editor tweeted this morning.

    >Named as Kurtin S. he had Albanian roots and his parents were originally from North Macedonia, Falter editor Florian Kenk wrote. Police thought he was not capable of planning an attack in Vienna, Klenk added.

    >Two women and two men were killed, local media reported. One of the women was a waitress who died of gunshot wounds in hospital, and another who was aged in her 40s later died in the Ottakring Clinic.
