webfact Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 No evidence Islamic State responsible for Toronto attack: police A member of the Markham Synchro Swimming Club pays respect at a makeshift memorial as they take part in a vigil three days after a mass shooting on Danforth Avenue in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, July 25, 2018. REUTERS/Chris Helgren TORONTO/CAIRO (Reuters) - Canadian police said on Wednesday that they had no evidence so far to support claims by the Islamic State militant group that it was responsible for a weekend shooting in Toronto that left two people dead and 13 wounded. Faisal Hussain, 29, was identified by police as the gunman who opened fire on a busy Toronto street, killing 10-year-old girl Julianna Kozis and 18-year-old Reese Fallon. He was found dead shortly afterwards, authorities said. Hussain, buried by his family on Wednesday morning, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, a source close to the family said. The Special Investigations Unit, an independent body looking into his demise, would not confirm a cause of death. Islamic State said through its AMAQ news agency that Hussain "was a soldier of the Islamic State and carried out the attack in response to calls to target the citizens of the coalition countries." It did not provide evidence for its claim. "At this stage, we have no evidence to support these claims," said Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders. "We will continue to explore every investigative avenue including interviewing those who knew Mr. Hussain, reviewing his online activity, and looking into his experiences with mental health." Hussain's family said he worked in a grocery store but spent much of his time at home, and the struggled with severe mental illness. Police said it was not known how Hussain obtained a gun. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, citing an unnamed police source, reported on Wednesday that Hussain got the gun from his brother, Fahad Hussain, and that it had been traced to the United States.

Popular Post geriatrickid Posted July 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 26, 2018 The sad reality is that the Canadian government is doing its utmost to deny this link. There is a negative backlash against the open borders position that allows tens of thousands of economic migrants to cross over from the USA, and to claim refugee status. Of course the USA is delighted to dump such people in Canada, since The Canadian PM and Canadians were so critical of the USA on immigration. The assailant here will be painted as a poor mentally ill soul. Well, of course he could be, but those are the people terrorists intentionally recruit. ISIL, Hamas, Taliban, Pakistani jihad et al have had a longstanding position to use children and the mentally ill as suicide bombers and killers. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Japan and S.Korea have a small Muslim population - approx 100k each. Japan has hundreds of thousands of Muslim workers, S.Korea approx one million Muslim tourists a year etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not strictly accurate, but certainly the greater the migrant numbers, greater the problems of integration - as nations across Europe are now learning the hard way. One shudders to imagine what will happen, with no contingency plan in place, when the present relative trickle of thousands of Muslims from sub-Saharan Africa becomes a flood of needy millions.

Stargeezr Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Where did this killer get his trainng on the use of pistols? He was pretty quick in changing the clips, and his shooting stance must have been learned.. Too bad the gun was not taken by the police, when his brother was arrested. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbc Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Agree with stargrazer.I watched the video of the murderer as he moved and adopted his grip and shooting posture.Having been trained in the use and handling of all firearms (served in the military)he certainly had training in the use and firing of handguns.Hopefully this is all noted and will be investigated. Somehow I think it will not be as the liberal minded federal government and people of Ontario will not want to admit that their liberal policies on immigration is coming back to haunt them.Have they forgotten the other incidents before this ie the van driver in north York.Sad to say this is just the beginning and hopefully no more innocent lives will have to be lost before we wake up in Canada and realize the big mistake in regards to the liberal governments immigration policies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A larger problem are the Canadian Incels who can't get laid because of their toxic personalities and take it out on women because they're "nice guys".
