According to witnesses and a video, “non-religious Bosnian Muslim” and Utah gunman Sulejman Talovic shouted Allah Akbar repeatedly before being killed himself. From a FoxNews.com article yesterday by John Gibson:
[Talovic] was reported to have been shouting “Allah Akbar” at the end of the shootout when he was cornered, at least according to some witnesses.
So why do we get all prissy about the fact that he was a Muslim? Do we think that European Muslims don’t do terrorism? That his Muslim religion was just another fact in all the other facts about him?…The New York Times dropped a hint when it mentioned Islamic burial rites.
And here is the video.
