According to your source he is a Libyan National who entered Turkey via Syria. Sounds like he might be one of the rebels who helped "liberate" Libya.

Let's bomb Syria because of this attack

edit on 30-11-2011 by Corruption Exposed because: (no reason given)

Claims on the nationality of the gunman suggest he is Syrian.

Oh please let's stop the bombings all together

I'm not implying that either source is completely true, but your second source which is more recent claims he has been identified as a Libyan national.

Yes, you're right I just saw that.

With any kind of news like this, I read between the lines, I think we'd be fooling
ourselves if we expected the media to give us 100% truth...

Well it wouldn't be the first time that something of this nature was used to start a war.

I wasn't there, but my neighbours friend was walking her pet camel while passing a group of bedouin sherpa's who had just spoken to a guy in a rickshaw that had given a lift to a lady wearing a black robe that had smiled at a little girl who was skiping in the street having said good bye to her brother who was on his way to the shops for a loaf of bread,

Which one was Syrian, Turkish, Libyan, Israeli, American or British ????

Come on folks stop swallowing the sh1te we're being force fed with! If it's from the Government or M$M then chances are it was one of their own patsy's high on drugs,

NO MORE WARS "PLEASE"

Oh goody, now not only do we have a reason to bomb Iran because of their blatant attack on UK diplomats, now we also have a reason to attack Syria with all its human rights violations and crazy gunman shooting down innocents.

Yup, the USS George HW Bush aircraft carrier sitting right now in Syrian waters will sure come in handy for just such a case... yessiree.
