Following the horrific terrorist attack at a Christmas market in Magdeburg, an odd narrative is emerging in the German media.
Saudi Arabia has claimed that they repeatedly warned the German government about the perpetrator, yet he was still roaming free and able to plough a car into hundreds of people Friday night.
Latest reports say that 200 people have been injured and five people, including a small child, tragically killed in the attack, footage of which was caught on CCTV and quickly spread online.
The murderer who drive the vehicle was arrested and it quickly emerged that he is a fugitive from Saudi who has remarkably been living in asylum in Germany with citizenship for 18 years.
BREAKING: According to reports from UAE and Saudi Arabian 𝕏 users, the perpetrator of the Christmas market attack in Magdeburg, Germany is a fugitive from Saudi Arabia.

German outlet Der Spiegel reports that 50-year-old Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen, reportedly a specialist in psychiatry and psychotherapy, was allowed to stay in Germany despite repeated requests for extradition by the Saudi authorities and at least three warnings that he was a dangerous criminal.
The German government cited concerns over human rights and freedom of expression as the cause for not agreeing to send the man back to Saudi.
In addition to these warnings, people who knew the man also apparently tried to warn the German authorities he was dangerous and intended to kill.
A girl in Germany warned the police twice in 2023 about his plan. They ignored her, and today he carried out a massacre in Magdeburg.
Truly mind boggling.

Little more is known about the terrorist at this point, but Der Spiegel is claiming that the man no longer identifies as an Islamist, writing that “He appears on the Internet as an ex-Muslim and opponent of Islam. The background to the incident is still completely unclear – as is the possible motive.”
The outlet claims that the man “had been threatened with death for turning away from Islam.”
The report also claims that “SPIEGEL research has shown that Taleb A. openly sympathized with the AfD online.”
The AfD is the right wing populist party in Germany that is gaining massive support owing to its anti-immigration/pro deportation stance.
Der Spiegel claims that the perpetrator “had been an activist for years, advising mainly women from Saudi Arabia about ways to escape from their country and running a website with information on the German asylum system.”
Der Spiegel is reporting this about the terrorist who ploughed the car into the Christmas market. The emerging narrative is that he’s an ex-Muslim who now supports the AfD & hates the German establishment for allowing mass immigration of Islamists.

It’s completely unclear at this time why any of this, if true, would lead him to plough a car into innocent German people at a Christmas market.
The market looks to have been left completely unprotected, despite several past attacks of this sort at these exact events.
As we highlighted just a couple of days ago, German police at one Christmas market were filmed interrogating an elderly lady and ultimately confiscating a pocket knife from her.
They are clearly aware that there is a threat at these markets, but chose to indiscriminately target those attending, rather than using common sense to gauge exactly who the threats are coming from.
