Where's our Islamic Jihadist Terrorist Appeaser in Chief?
Still golfing in Hawaii?
Appalling Details: German Officials Really Blew it on Jihadist Truck Attack
In light of the deadly truck attack perpetrated by an Islamist terrorist in Germany, Donald Trump is claiming vindication for his "extreme vetting" stance pertaining to refugees seeking to enter America.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has taken the opposite approach during her tenure at the helm in Berlin, turning her country into the top Western haven for refugees from the war-torn Middle East -- and Syria in particular.
She's opened the nation's doors to roughly one million asylum-seekers last year. But following a string of sexual assaults, lethal terrorist attacks and plots, and increased worries of radicalization across Europe, Merkel is starting to pay a steep political price for her lenient "compassionate" policies.
New details about the latest Islamism-inspired mass killing of Germans, at a Christmas market no less, are likely to have Merkel's constituents asking even harder questions about her government's competence and judgment.
The prime suspect sought in the deadly attack on a Berlin Christmas market — a 24-year-old Tunisian migrant — was the subject of a terrorism probe in Germany earlier this year and was not deported even though his asylum bid was rejected, a senior German official said Wednesday.
The suspect — who went by numerous aliases but was identified by German authorities as Anis Amri — became the subject of a national manhunt after investigators discovered a wallet with his identity documents in the truck used in Monday’s attack that left 12 dead, two law enforcement officials told The Washington Post.
Meanwhile, a clearer portrait took shape of the suspect, including accusations that he had contact with a prominent Islamic State recruiter in Germany...Amri was the subject of a terrorism probe on suspicion of “preparing a serious act of violent subversion,” and he had known links to Islamist extremists, authorities said.
Why a failed asylum seeker with such links and no passport was walking German streets is “the question 82 million Germans probably want an answer to,” said Rainer Wendt, Chairman of the German Police Union.
He didn't slip through the cracks; he was red-flagged and surveilled, yet allowed to remain in the country for some reason, despite being placed on a "danger list" and deemed to be "prone to extreme violence." This is somewhat reminiscent of the FBI's multiple interviews of Pulse nightclub jihadist Omar Mateen, with a key distinction being that Mateen was a US citizen born in America, whereas German suspect was a "migrant."
