According to Bild, an explosive was deposited on the street in front of the bus although police have yet to give any more details.

Speculation on Reddit is that it was a "big firecracker" that shattered a window. But then BVB said on twitter that it was a bomb on the bus.

This might end up being some ******* moron with a flashbang.

Hahaha.

Ah.

An insult ought to pick on an insecurity if you really want to get under somebody's skin.

Calling a bloke who won a scholarship to go to university thick isn't going to do it.

If you ever actually start listening to what I teach you, you might start to learn a bit.

The police are investigating a possible Islamist link because a letter left at the scene praised allah and mentioned Germany's use of Tornados to fight I.S.

What odds this turns out to actually be an islamist attack? I'm thinking about evens, another option being that it's a far-right, non-islamist attack.

You'd have to be 'insecure' not to find it amusing.

Edit, just seen who made the comment which explains the response.

We just need to withdraw all forces from muslim countries and let them get on with their lives.
Then we need to start rooting out these terror cells and deal with them in appropriate ways.

It will take time, but once we leave them alone and start letting them get on with life things could improve for everyone.

I know Isis want to resurrect the old caliphate that went across southern Europe and Africa, but at that point they just need telling to ***** off.

Brilliant gesture from Dortmund to give every Monaco fan 80euros towards the cost of the extended to stay to help with costs like accomodation food or travel.

Not seen many false flag attempts yet from far-right groups. They don't really need to, there's enough real ones going around for them to use.

Plenty from far-left activities though mind, in fact I think there was even for made for this attack that was posted online by some left wing nutters apparently pretending that a message they wrote online was done by Nazis and racists or something; according the BBC earlier anyway.

Thats not what I read. I read that there was a letter doing the rounds from an anti-fascist group claiming responsibility. It'd be kinda weird for an anti-fascist group to pretend to be a far right group while overtly being anti-fascist. But I suppose that kind of logic doesn't appeal to you.

I'm prepared to stand corrected if you can link me the BBC article that told you this.

To be honest I'm not sure, I was watching BBC news and they said an antifa did a hoax letter that police have said was false. I just assumed they'd be blaming the whole thing on Nazi's and racists because, well that's generally what they do.

Tommy Robinson hasn't turned up outside the banks in London, but its surely only a matter of time.

Like the apologies for being wrong from Farage and Hopkins. They are probably writing them as we speak.

Funny how the day that article is written more blood is spilt on European soil in the name of Islam. Still though, at least this gives a glimmer of hope to the liberals that when this happens again, there's an ultra slim chance it's a stock exchange scam.
