France Enjoying It's Diversity (Updated)

The Daily Mail reports: "Syrian refugee screaming 'in the name of Jesus Christ' stabs a child in their pram in front of mother as four kids aged 22 months to three - including British girl - are knifed while holidaying at French resort before cops shoot and arrest him." 

    The attacker, identified as Abdalmash H, 31, clinched onto a necklace with a crucifix on it before he launched his 'abominable' rampage in a lakeside park in the town of Annecy, a tourist hotspot in southeastern France, at around 9.45am.

    Distressing video shows the attacker running into the small playground and repeatedly stabbing a toddler in his pram while his screaming mother tries to protect him from the attack.

    Further dramatic footage shows the attacker, a recently divorced Syrian refugee who has declared himself a Christian, later being chased across the park by locals and cops before he was shot by a police officer and pinned to the ground.

I'm guessing that his "conversion" to Christianity was a cynical bid to stay in Europe.

    Witnesses said they heard the man, who was rejected for asylum in France four days before the attack, shouting before he began attacking the small children in the playground with a blade around four inches long. One of the injured children was in a stroller.

    Abdalmash H, who was recently divorced, had previously lived for 10 years in Sweden where he was granted refugee status in April, security sources and his ex-wife said.

    'He called me around four months ago. He was living in a church,' his ex-wife said on condition of anonymity, saying he had left Sweden because he had been unable to get Swedish nationality.

    He had applied for asylum in France but was rejected four days before launching his barbaric attack due to him already having refugee status in Sweden.

Of course, if he'd never been let in to France in the first place, this would never have happened.

Update: Turns out that the shooter was Muslim. 

The French-language news site Resistance Républicaine reported Monday that “Syrians living in France and Germany” have recognized the attacker as a “madman of Allah,” and that the identification has been confirmed by others as well. The attacker, according to those who have recognized him, is actually a Muslim named Selwan Majd, “a refugee from Al-Hasakah in northern Syria.”
