One might almost think that attacks such as this one had something to do with Islam, if we didn’t have our non-Muslim moral superiors constantly telling us it wasn’t so.
An update on this story. “BREAKING NEWS: ‘Islamist’ suspect is arrested over Borussia Dortmund coach bombing after police find THREE letters claiming attack was carried out in the name of Islam,” by Chris Pleasance, Julian Robinson, Allan Hall, Simon Jones and James Restall, Daily Mail, April 12, 2017:
An ‘Islamist’ suspect has been arrested in connection with the pipe bomb attack on Borussia Dortmund’s team bus as authorities said they are treating it as a ‘terrorist attack’.
German police searched properties belonging to ‘two suspects from the Islamist spectrum’ on Wednesday and made one arrest, prosecutors announced.
Frauke Koehler, a spokeswoman for federal prosecutors, revealed the explosive devices used in the attack contained metal pins, one of which was found buried in a headrest on the vehicle.
Ms Koehler said it was lucky ‘that nothing worse happened’, adding that investigators are still working to determine how the devices were detonated and what substance was used.
Elsewhere police said three letters claiming responsibility for the attack have been found, all of them saying that it was carried out in the name of Islam….
At least one of the notes made reference to the Berlin Christmas market attack, in which an ISIS fanatic drove a stolen truck into shoppers, killing 12.

First, ‘tornadoes’, a reference to German reconnaissance planes, must be withdrawn from Syria, and second the US base in Ramstein, Rhineland-Palatinate, should be closed.
Controversial drone operations against terror targets in the Middle East are controlled from the base.
The letter also claims that German combat aircraft are involved in killing Muslims in the ‘Islamic State’, adding that athletes and other celebrities ‘in Germany and other Kreuzfahrer (crusader) nations’ are now on a ‘death list’.
Terrified stars dived for cover as three blasts sent shards of glass flying through their coach while defender Marc Bartra broke a bone in his right wrist and later needed surgery to remove ‘foreign objects’ from his body.
The coach had just left the club hotel ahead of their Champions League quarter-final clash with Monaco when the bombs were detonated in what is believed to have been a targeted attack.
A policeman escorting the coach to the match on a motorcycle was also injured when the bombs went off in bushes nearby, having apparently been detonated with a mobile phone or garage door opener. The officer suffered hearing damage and shock and was unable to report for duty today….
