Rio Mass Murder: Muslim Opens Fire on Children’s School, 11 Dead, 20 Wounded, Suicide Note “References to Islamic fundamentalism”



I think it’s important to note that all of the headlines in the news reports in Portuguese call the murderer an Islamic suicide bomber and report that his letter refers to Islam, while none of the English outlets are reporting this critical clue.



“In recent months, she said, he appeared to have got closer to Islam.”







At least 11 people, mostly children, died Thursday and more that 15 were wounded when an armed man attacked a school in Realengo in the poor suburbs of Rio de Janeiro.



According to a preliminary police report, the attacker – a 24- year-old former student at the school – was among the dead after shooting himself in the head. He attacked Tasso da Silveira school, where some 400 students ages 9-14 were in classes. [...]



Beltrami described the letter as ‘the words of a person who no longer believes in anything, full of sentences that made no sense andreferences to Islamic fundamentalism.’



Huh? He no longer believes in anything but made references to Islam?





Beltrami said the attacker was friendly as he went into the school, chatting with administrators and teachers and asking for permission to address the children. When he reached the third floor of the building, the suspect entered one of the classrooms and started to shoot at students, killing nine girls and one boy.



The attacker apparently committed suicide upon being chased by a police officer who had been called in by a student who managed to escape the buildingRoselane de Oliveira, a sister of the attacker, told Rio de Janeiro radio station Band News that the young man ‘was very strange.’



‘He had no friends, and he spent all his time on the Internet,’ she said.



In recent months, she said, he appeared to have got closer to Islam.



Police stressed, however, that there was no concrete evidence that the attack had either a religious or a political motive. (No shiite!)
