(Hamburg) 26 year old Palestinian Ahmad Alhaw admitted Friday to
killing a man and wounding six others with a knife in a Hamburg supermarket in July.
In that incident Alhaw picked up a knife and went on the rampage inside the
supermarket killing one man and injuring another 6. He was overpowered by
customers.
In court it transpired that Alhaw left Egypt in 2009 where he was doing a dentistry degree to seek asylum in Norway After his application was rejected, he moved around the EU, living in Sweden, Spain and finally Germany. Which also refused his application for asylum and he was set to be deported by the end of 2016, however that had been put on hold as for some very strange reason his identity documents had become lost.
In court Alhaw claimed he was hitting back against Israel
and yet whilst his anger was directed at the Jew, he came out with this:
"It was important to him to kill as many German nationals of the Christian faith as possible. He wanted his actions to be viewed in the context of an Islamist attack, and understood as a contribution to jihad worldwide,"
Something tells me it had nothing to do with Israel, but
more to do with staying in the country, in the hope that after doing his time
he will be granted permission to stay.
