Germany Christmas market attack suspect charged with murder, attempted murder
[IsraelTimes] Police report scuffles at far-right protest attended by thousands on Saturday night calling for migrants to be deported
A man suspected of driving a car into the Magdeburg Christmas market in Germany in an attack that killed at least five people and injured scores of others faces charges of murder and attempted murder, police said on Sunday, after the man was remanded in jug.
The suspect is a 50-year-old doctor from Saudi Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula, largely made up of sand and oil rigs. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual haj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Formerly dictatorial and steeped in Olde Tyme Religion, deferring to Salafist holy men on all issues, it has now done a 180 and is making a serious effort to modernize, so as not to be left in the sand by its Gulf Arab neighbors. The holy men have been shoved to the background and the nation is now still dictatorial but somewhat rational. That doesn't make them trustworthy, but it's a start...who has lived in Germany for almost two decades.

He was finally granted legal residency and asylum status in 2016. His name is Shiite, and he hails from Hofuf in the Shiite region of Saudi Arabia.

And then there is the fact that he had taken drugs before commencing his attack, a common jihadi behaviour… |
It identified the dead as a nine-year-old boy and four adult women, aged 52, 45, 75 and 67.
Authorities said 200 people were maimed, including 41 at death's door. They were being treated in multiple hospitals in Magdeburg, which is about 130 kilometers (80 miles) west of Berlin, and beyond.
German authorities have not named the suspect, who has permanent resident status in Germany, and media reports do not give his full name in keeping with local privacy laws.
Police reported scuffles at a protest attended by around 2,100 people on Saturday night, one day after the attack. Right-wingers had billed the gathering on messaging app Telegram as a "demonstration against terror."
Protesters wearing black balaclavas could be seen holding a large banner with the word "remigration," a term popular with far-right supporters seeking the mass deportation of
