    Maybe it's a false flag.

    Still terrible. Fuck whoever is behind it.

    There will be people you YouTube right now claiming it's a false flag. Whether it is or not, who the fuck knows. As with all these thing, I wait until the facts come out before deciding if it might be.

    It doesn't look like a false flag. But we don't know at this stage if muslims are behind it. Could be a crazy psychopath, or a heart attack.

    What is it nearly two years now since the Glasgow bin lorry crash?

    A driver who suffered a heart attack wouldn't have ran away...?


    Oh a suspect was now taken into custody near the Christmas market, apparently.

    Oh did the driver run away?

    My personal reporter on the scene didn't telegram that detail to me just yet.

    Does he have brown skin, is the next question I suppose.

    I've not heard from him since it happened. I don't even know where he is. The CIA are after him.

    This in from Berlin correspondent Kate Connolly

    Police have said the juggernaut which crashed into the Xmas market had Polish number plates and belonged to a Polish delivery company. The company said the truck left Poland this afternoon heading to Berlin and that they lost touch with the driver at 4pm local time. It would appear that the lorry might have been hijacked.

    According to Polish media reports, the truck had a Polish numberplate and was registered to a Polish company. The company’s owner, Ariel Żurawski, was quoted on television as saying he had the utmost confidence in the driver, who he says is his cousin. The driver’s wife reportedly lost contact with him during the afternoon ahead of the crash.
    “The person who jumped out of the truck, it’s not my driver,” Żurawski told Polish news channel TVN24.
    TVN24 reports the truck was on its way from Italy and was supposed to be unloaded in Berlin on Tuesday morning at 8am. It claims this means the vehicle was fully loaded, with some 20 tonnes of steel.

    Oh and a passenger has been found dead in the truck (could that be that Polish guy?)

    If they still had the wall up, wonder if could have been stopped.
    Of course it would have been stopped with the wall up.
    Bring back the wall!

    According to Die Welt, the driver was from Pakistan. Came to Germany in February.
    Not officially confirmed though.

    Be mindful about accusing your anti-refugee friends of bigotry. They simply care about their friends, family, and their fellow human beings.
