I don’t know how reliable this report will turn out to be:
All evidence indicates that the copilot of Airbus machine in his six-months break during his training as a pilot in Germanwings, converted to Islam and subsequently either by the order of “radical”, ie. devout Muslims , or received the order from the book of terror, the Quran, on his own accord decided to carry out this mass murder. As a radical mosque in Bremen is in the center of the investigation, in which the convert was staying often, it can be assumed that he – as Mohammed Atta, in the attack against New York – received his instructions directly from the immediate vicinity of the mosque.
Converts are the most important weapon of Islam. Because their resume do not suggests that they often are particularly violent Muslims.
The problem is that if it is true, I have a feeling it will be ferociously covered up.
I sincerely hope it isn’t true, but recent converts to anything tend to worry me, as they have a way of being fanatics in order to prove themselves, like this son of a bitch. Hell, even when the “conversion” involves petty, non-religious matters like quitting smoking or booze — or becoming a vegan — the newly converted can be extremely annoying. (But at least radical vegans don’t commit mass murder… only an occasional assassination.)
MORE: If this report is correct, I think it is highly unlikely that Lubitz was a Muslim:
“It is not known why they split but it has been claimed their relationship broke down because he was secretly gay and was suffering torment over hiding his homosexuality.
One report claimed he was taunted by fellow pilots for previously being a ‘trolley dolly’ airline steward and dubbed ‘Tomato Andy’ – a derogatory gay slur – by colleagues.”

I blame gravity for the crash. What goes up must come down.
Snark aside, like you, I’m skeptical of the Muslim angle here. There are reports that the co-pilot was suffering from depression, but I don’t know if there are definitive. Sad business all the way around for those killed and their surviving loved ones.
“there are” should read “they are”. My bad. Gosh I wish there was an edit function here.
Gateway Pundit is way over the edge on this one. Euro news sources are quoting no evidence of religious or other influences but are quoting direct evidence of him disregarding and destroying mental health work disqualifications.
The author of this article calls the Quran ‘the book of terror.’ He is obviously biased and has an axe to grind.
Chocolatier, you need to get out of Berkeley. Way back in college I was forced to read the Koran (as is was called before the pc police changed spelling) in a Comparative Religious Studies class. Maybe you’re confusing it with the poetry of Kahlil Gibran who was extremely popular in 60’s Berkeley culture.

The Koran puts anything in the Old Testament to shame. It’s a book written by a psychopath who advocated terror beyond belief.
Quran (2:191-193) – “And kill them wherever you find them…
Quran (3:151) – “Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority”.
Quran (4:74) – “Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward.”
Quran (5:33) – “The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement”
Quran (8:12) – “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them”

I have seen nothing on him converting to a muslim. You must have got this on faux not news but republican propaganda network. I will wait annd see if any legitimate news organization reports this.
Frank,
What exactly is poltically correct about spelling a word to the form that is closest to pronounciation in its original language? Are you one of those people that is upset they can’t still call black people negroes?
What exactly is poltically correct about spelling a word to the form that is closest to pronounciation in its original language?
Absolutely nothing. The pc part comes in because pronunciation is not the reason for the spelling change. It is primarily to accommodate the sensibilities of the culture.
Are you one of those people that is upset they can’t still call black people negroes?
Not at all. In fact I think you should be able to call a spade a spade. In that vein I often call some of my best friends fag and queer, just like black athletes call each other nigger. I wouldn’t use the n term myself mind you. Some of the old queens I know — it’s a different story. For instance I think Barney Fwank is one of the most nelly, lispy, old fags ever to have swished his way out of a gay bar in Provincetown or to have hired a hustler to run “girls” out his Georgetown house.
What spade are you even calling?
David, David Spade – the man who proved you don’t dis a black man without getting called out – the man who prevented Eddie Murphy from appearing on SNL for 19 fucking years – the man who showed just how fragile and overly sensitive some people can get without even uttering the dreaded nnnnn word.

Frank you need to get out more. Where do you live, the woods?
You think the beef between David Spade and Eddie Murphy proves something about 30 million black people?
You think Eddie Murphy is the first person in history to get butthurt? That its a black thing?
You have issues man. No clue what greater point you are trying to get to.
No clue what greater point you are trying to get to.
No greater point. You are the one who turned a discussion about the Koran, excuse me the Qur’an, into a race baiting exercise. So I had a little fun. It is really too bad you can’t be timed warped back to the Free Speech Movement days of Berkeley. Nah, it’d probably give you a stroke.
Calling you out on being a dumbass implies that I have a problem with free speech? What?
Can somebody please give Frink a copy of the 1st amendment please?
Love the way you rant off like a dork and then when called out come back with the “lolz just jk.” You need to get outside more Frank. There’s better ways of letting off steam. Have you tried golf?
