Any German can update? And what exactly makes you think this was a planned attack on Germany by the German government rather then a lone idiot? | ||

Because I like the idea of neonazi resurrection just for funsies. Jokes aside, I didn't say German government planned it, only asked for investigation? Why are you becoming sensitive this quick. Turkey already played her part when they planned falseflag operation to Ottoman tomb in Syria by the way. | ||

Well normally when someone plans something insane/stupid most don't start questioning if 'a' government was involved. But yes I fully assume an investigation into possible additional accomplices will be done as is normal when someone is arrested for an attempted terrorist attack. And when those lead to 'a' government being involved those will be followed through on aswell. Unless ofcourse it was the German government in which case it will be quickly buried and some dummy will be thrown under the bus. | ||

Unless that someone is a state official, more importantly a soldier... Of course we hope for the best and expect him to be a lone wolf, however, this alone raises another big concern, how many lone wolves are possibly inside the German Army, who may plan to attack the very nation they pledged to protect, for some "greater good" in their minds? | ||

That has happened already, time and time again in fact, and nothing has changed. people do dumb things all the time, at least in the US. recently there was a guy who's entire plan was basically blow up target and then buy target stock to make himself money. | ||

Also, you do not hold referenda on technical details. They are for broad constitutional issues. | ||

You're going to have enough trouble getting governments to agree in countries like Ireland and France. Also, you do not hold referenda on technical details. They are for broad constitutional issues. Don't ask me what the point of populists is. I am just here to mock them and their hypocrisy. Also I don't consider these technical details. Not that I am for holding referenda because of it, but that's a different reasoning. | ||

That has happened already, time and time again in fact, and nothing has changed. Some right wing radicals just crave to use the methods of radical Islam. Just read Anders Breivik, he is secretly in love with Jihad. Radical nationalists and Islamists have a lot in common, and it's not that surprising, really. | ||
