Apparently the Magdeburg assassin did not expect to survive his death journey. This can be concluded from a will that he left in the car.
The police apparently found a will in the Magdeburg attacker’s car that he is said to have left behind, as “Spiegel” reports. Accordingly, Taleb A., a doctor from Saudi Arabia, wanted to bequeath his entire fortune to the German Red Cross. He apparently expected not to survive the attack. According to the magazine, there were no political messages in the letter.
Taleb A. raced through the Magdeburg Christmas market in a rented BMW early on Friday evening. Five people died in the attack and up to 235 were injured, many seriously. The perpetrator was arrested.
Video interview at the Maritim in Magdeburg
The magazine also reports that the perpetrator rented the car, a BMW, a week before the crime on December 11th. A day later he gave a video interview to an Islamophobic US blog in a room at the Maritims Hotel in Magdeburg. It is said that the wood paneling and ceiling spotlights in the hotel room can be clearly seen in the background.
In the interview, he is said to rave about tech billionaire Elon Musk and US conspiracy ideologist Alex Jones and claim that Germany is allowing Islamists from Syria into the country while it wants to “destroy the lives of Saudi ex-Muslims.” The German police are running a covert operation to persecute these people worldwide, as they once did under National Socialism.
