Brazilian whacks, Pt 2

Not until the fifth paragraph do we find out that Islam may have played a role, but it is in a context where the reader can infer the perp attacker was crazy or not of his full faculties, making the Islam identification less than accurate.  Nevertheless, he murdered many in the name of Allah.

Jihad in Brazil, and there will be more in the near future.

At least 11 dead in massacre at Rio de Janeiro school

Rio de Janeiro - At least 11 people, mostly children, died Thursday and more that 15 were wounded when an armed man attacked a school in Realengo in the poor suburbs of Rio de Janeiro.

Police initially said that 13 people had died, but Rio de Janeiro's Health Ministry later lowered the death toll.

According to a preliminary police report, the attacker - a 24- year-old former student at the school - was among the dead after shooting himself in the head. He attacked Tasso da Silveira school, where some 400 students ages 9-14 were in classes.

Police Colonel Djalma Beltrami said the killer used two handguns and a lot of ammunition. The suspect left behind a letter, in which he anticipated committing suicide after the attack. Beltrami, however, gave no details of any possible motive.

Beltrami described the letter as 'the words of a person who no longer believes in anything, full of sentences that made no sense and references to Islamic fundamentalism.'

What kind of references? I am betting they were, at least in part Qur'anic quotes.

Beltrami said the attacker was friendly as he went into the school, chatting with administrators and teachers and asking for permission to address the children. When he reached the third floor of the building, the suspect entered one of the classrooms and started to shoot at students, killing nine girls and one boy.
