Better barmaids -

Since when does a barmaid pour, then drink it?

They were on their break.

And I think the girl nearest the camera is lovely.

A German "security expert" - Apparently the (latest) bomber tried to commit suicide twice last year, and was hospitalised for mental illness, there's a record of drug use, petty crime. They are wondering how he could construct the sophisticated device (nail bomb) while living in the refugee centre.

There seems to be an awful lot of "mental illness" manifesting itself to look like terrorism at the moment. Is this a processing problem for Western European liberals perhaps, akin "but why would they mean such harm, because we're so nice and liberal? He (and it's always men) must be mental"

Makes you wonder if there is someone in Germany with the skills to make bombs and "taking advantage" of people who are mentally ill to turn them into suicide bombers?

[MrNoisy]

Do you think our Syrian friend misunderstood the phrase "I'd love to nail them......"?

Two things to be admired.

Her strength being one of them.

[Puggit]

Can anyone tell me why a genuine Syrian refugee would be declined asylum? Is there a difference between what Merkel was offering with her open door policy and asylum?

Was he maybe not Syrian?

I hope that's not a "before and after" scenario.

Angela can't say that she wasn't warned about letting these people in completely unchecked.

I find it very interesting how this suicide bombing (for that is what it is) is being reported by the media. The German Govt is in full-on propaganda management mode as everyone is being told 'motives are not clear' and he 'detonated an explosive device'.

No mention of suicide bombing whatsoever.

Quite, BBC5 Live just reported it well down the running order (after Philip Green, after Chris Froome, "his motive is not yet known", almost nothing to see here move on. But you need only to go on Twitter and search #Ansbach to get a feel for what's really going on.

"Can anyone imagine 3 attacks in a week were done by white native germans?
Would you talk about their mental health or...?

"The #Ansbach bomber's intended target was an open-air music festival, but vigilant security turned him away."

"What we know #Ansbach:
- 12 people injured
- 2,500 evacuated from festival
- Bomber: 27year-old Syrian asylum seeker (application failed)"

"#Ansbach: police say the bomb contained nails, investigations are ongoing whether this attack is linked to ISIS"

"Security expert says style of attack suggests #Ansbach attacker had some 'technical assistance' #Germany"

"@BBCBreakfast In Ansbach there is the USAG @GarrisonAnsbach facility ! The gateway for the US Army to Afghanistan,with Grafenwöhr trainarea!"

Is "technical assistance" polite code of ISIS now?

Meanwhile BBC 5 Live want to talk about Philip Green's knighthood....

10 o'clock news on BBC Radio 2 almost followed that pecking order.
All Philip Green and, in fact, the shooting in USA was above suicide bomber in Germany.

Or could it be that ISIS have used the Syrian refugee crisis to send thousands of jihads over among the million refugees as they said they would.

Poor girl was pregnant too. Such a shame.

Surprise.

How does the saying go, " if the mountain will not go to Mo, bring Mo to mountainous Europe.

[hornetrider]

So he pledged allegiance to ISIS on his phone. Had bomb making equipment at home. ISIS have claimed him as a soldier.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jul/25/ansb...

Yet he's still not a suicide bomber.

[GG89]

They are going to stop calling terrorist attacks for what they are. It's all going to be lone wolves with mental health issues who don't follow any faith.

For balance, we do get plenty of our own non terrorism related stabbings. Albeit it's probably not done by people we have had the good grace to give asylum to. Ungrateful bds.

Some perspective, in this country there is a knife attack every 4 mins equivalent to 130,000 per annum. Of those 22,000 are serious.

It's all a matter of knife control; too many knives in your country.
