L'acte d'un tueur isolé aveuglé par des haines racistes et antisémites? A ce stade, cette hypothèse semble l'emporter.An act of killing because of simple racist and antisemitic hate. Yet I suspect it was done by Muslims. It may have been revenge for the killing of three Muslim soldiers a week before. The social body of France is showing severe racial and ethnic stress.
Update: 11/35 AM The man was known to authorities for having spent time in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Gueant said. The shooting suspect, who is a French national, is "talking a lot, claiming his jihadist convictions" and calling himself a "mujahedeen." "He said he wants to avenge the deaths of Palestinians," the minister said, adding that he is "less explicit" about killing French paratroopers.

It's supposed to be the same person that did it.
We'll see.
"At this stage" - first conclusions are often wrong. Better to reserve judgment than to be discredited later and put future valid accusations in doubt. It probably is some kind of Neo-Nazi, but at this point it's too soon to point fingers without additional proof.
Last year someone shot a US Congressman and Obama made a big speech about how Republicans had created a "climate of hate" by having some campaign literature that something like "we are targeting this Congressman's district. " Later it turned out the person who shot her was just plain crazy and Republican rhetoric had absolutely nothing to do with it. This made Obama look like a fool or someone who made cynical use of a tragedy for political gain (both of which are true).

Whoever it was who perpetrated it, I wish to express my sympathies, for this revolting and horrific crime.

J, looks like you may be correct.

Reports quoted police as saying the man barricaded inside the house had told them he wanted to avenge the deaths of Palestinian children. He was described as a French national with an Algerian mother. The suspect already arrested is said to be his brother.
Yes, it seems that for a chance I may have been right.
Not all Muslims are terrorists but all terrorists are Muslims. The fact that he shot 2 Arab French troops last week threw people off (esp. leftists who were eager to villify the right anyway and hopefully influence the election).

Killing little Jewish children on the run is the MO of Muslim terrorists. They positively enjoy it and have the precedents to back them up. At this stage in history the neo Nazis would not do such a despicable thing. I suspect the French police, which is as unPC as they come, knew all along that they were looking for Muslims.

Maybe the police are un-PC but the press is not - they were salivating that it would be a Le Pen supporter and damage her in the election. Now this has backfired as I predicted it might.

A few more thoughts -
1. Merah was already captured at least once (possibly twice) in Afghanistan. There is some sort of game of catch and release because there is no suitable place to warehouse these pple (Guantanamo is out, people "escape" (are released)from Afghan prisons, in France he would have been put on welfare to await a trial in 10 years) and we are too refined to execute them as irregulars out of uniform as the Geneva convention permits. This is the price we pay for such political games. I'm afraid that the price this time was not high enough to change the game - what's a few more dead Jews in a continent paved with millions.
2. In the US Merah would be a dead man now - he shot at cops. In the US once you shoot at a police officer you will never be captured alive - the police will see to that. They know the "justice" system too well to leave punishment for cop killing up to the courts.
3. What was his thought at shooting other Muslim French? soldiers (he must have known the identity of at least one because he made an appointment to buy his motorcycle). Did he consider them race traitors? Did he want to throw the search off its tracks (which it did)? I doubt that he was smart enough for the latter.

Killing Jewish children has become the highest pleasure of Muslim degenerates all over the world. Like in Bombay, Itamar and now in Toulouse.
The reaction of the mass media will now be of interest; they are in a dilemma.
One does not, of course, expect apologies for their stupid attempts to smear the 'white right', and Le Pen, by extension.
They will, however, in the short run at least, find a way to blame white people for this, one way or another.
Islamic anti-Semitism is going to be what derails the globalist agenda.
I predict the media/establishment in Europe, and more quietly, Obama, will come out against the Jews.
It's a question of who has more money, in the end.
Anon.
In the US, at least, the answer is the Jews have more money. They bankroll the Democrat party (and some of the Republicans too (see Adelson) and no Democrat, not even the 3rd world sympathizer Obama, dares to "come out against the Jews" - this is literally unthinkable in America, at least for the time being (in a way that is not in Europe - although there are plenty of leftists in US academia who think this way, no US politician would even think to give a speech like Ashton where she reflexively changes the subject to the Joos killing little Palestinian children and equates intentional murder with collateral damage in war vs. an enemy that intentionally shields itself behind the civilian population.) Most mainstream Americans, Democrat and Republican, still recognize this distinction.
K
Obama talks out of both sides of his mouth, a fact first appreciated by Israelis,and the small white nationalist community.(I'm not talking about neo-nazis here).
While it is true that in the US, the Jews have a lot of money, and are certainly prepared to use it to promote their security, and that of Israel, in the Middle East, the oil-nations have much more of it and I would be very surprised if they were not using it to back their expansionist agenda.
Why is it there is so much Islamic immigration into Europe, and so little Hindu immigration?
The multiculturalists and the Jews are going to come to blows, and ground zero will be Europe. Europe, which is pursuing a nonviable business model, is there for the buying, as are her political parties.
Follow the money in Europe, for an understanding of what will happen there, indeed what is already well under way, as the Jewish population in places like Malmo and Toulouse is fast beginning to find out.
And it is already possible to discern the influence of Middle East oil money in the US.
Do not be so complacent.

Europe and America are two different things - Jews will always be foreigners in Europe, unless they give up their Jewish identity entirely and become good practicing atheist/socialists. As you say, it will become even less hospitable when Moslems become major factors in the ballot box. The US has a different demographic destiny. Fundamentalist Christians are wildly in love with Israel - even more than most American Jews.

"Fundamentalist Christians are wildly in love with Israel - even more than most American Jews."
That could change. Love can easily swing to hate if the fundamentalists drift back to a supersessionist theology.
I'd rather take my chances with the fundamentalists than put myself in the hands of the leftists who hate Jews NOW. There was an article in the NYT today about a hippie food coop in Brooklyn where the radicals want the coop to boycott Israeli products, not that they sell a meaningful amount of them to begin with. It's more important to have that "holier than thou" feeling , which liberals love even more than the religious.
