    2 US soldiers shot in Germany

    Developing story....


    Article

    Two U.S. soldiers were killed in a shooting at Germany's Frankfurt airport, according to Sky News. Two other people were reportedly injured.

    A man reportedly opened fire on a bus carrying U.S. soldiers.

    The BBC is reporting that police arrested a 21-year-old suspect from Kosovo.

    An airport spokesman Wednesday's shooting took place in front of Terminal 2 of what is continental Europe's second-biggest hub. He declined to be named in line with policy.

    There was no immediate information on their identity or further casualties.

    The U.S. Army Europe said it had no immediate information on the incident but was looking into it.

    RIP to the fallen.

    Maybe the German authorities will now address the growing radicalization of certain segments of the population?

    Maybe, but unfortunatedly, this would not correspond with the so called "imigration friendly" society.
    Of course, such segments of the population are not existing in our country.

    I have no problem with immigrants (of any religion) going to Germany to find a better life. My issue is that there are people immigrating there (as well as the West in general) who have no desire to conform to the norms and secular laws of their gaining nation.

    This is certainly an issue in the United States, but it is far worse in some parts of Europe and the UK.
