Two US soldiers have been killed in a shooting at Frankfurt airport, Sky sources have said.

Two other people are said to have been injured in the incident and police have reportedly arrested a 21-year-old suspect from Kosovo.

The shots were fired on or near a bus carrying soldiers, according to reports.

It happened in front of terminal 2 of the airport, which is continental Europe's second-biggest, a spokesman at the airport said.

Short blurb on CNN's site had two US Soldiers being shot by German security forces.  Currently they're saying one US airman killed, one other unspecified person critically wounded (Possibly bus driver, may or may not be US) and two others wounded, and no longer saying everyone was shot by the Grenzschutz.

Sounds like it was, but with some major collateral damage from the reaction force.

Here we go with another jihadist that Soetoro will deny as such.

Just like the Ft Hood victims I'll wager there will be no Purple Hearts forthcoming for these latest casualties either.

Yes, but there were no clean hands in the former Yugoslavian states.  All sides committed innumerable atrocities on each other to include PWs and civilians.  Still, the Serbs were generally the hands-down winners on that score.

I think there's restrictions on Purple Hearts to wounds recieved in combat in a war zone....but then....with Muslims the whole world is a war zone and they have been at war for 1,400 years...so maybe Purple Hearts are due.

Radical Muslims have been targeting US military and civilians in Europe for DECADES.  I am so sorry for the loss of life, and the fact that probably we're going to have some ****head Army general get up and lament how he's afraid the fallout will be prejudice against the Religion of Peace, like the douchebag general speaking of the Ft. Hood terrorist killings did. :bird:

I've linked to ONE attack that happened while my husband and I were living in Germany most of the 1980's below.  This was an attack I was intimately familiar with, since my husband's CJ-7 was damaged by the firebomb.  We'd driven it to the PX/Commissary complex that day because he jokingly complained that we always took MY car.  We were walking out of the commissary, my 6-month old daughter in my arms, when there was an enormous explosion and a geyser of fire shot straight up into the sky.  Since it was located adjacent to the AAFES gas station, hubby and I thought at first a gas pump had blown up.  Nope, turns out it was hateful Muslim extremists.  We got on a U-bahn to go home and I'm not ashamed to admit that I cried like a baby (and my daughter) the whole ****ing way home.
These people hate us, and they always have, ever since they spilled out of their desert hellhole to conquer the West.  Anyone who thinks we can peacefully co-exist with them is either delusional or truly wants the enemy to win.

According to the criteria required for the award of the PHM, for Soetoro to award the PHM to the Ft Hood victims and/or the latest casualties, the Airmen in Germany he would have to concede that the shooters were terrorists. Doing so would identify the enemy and support the fact that we are at war with Islam, whether we like it or not. Soetoro will at all costs avoid identifying Islam as the enemy.

From Kosovo no less.

Good luck finding it but one of the "martyr videos" from a 9/11 hijacker stated he was seeking revenge for the Serbian slaughter of Muslims. Nowhere was there any notice of the fact the US fought a war and still maintains forces in the region to end that slaughter.

Islam is a religion for savages. Maybe not all Muslims are savages but certainly savages find plenty of pretext within the text of Islam.

We will dither and hedge until one day we are provoked beyond endurance in a war of finality. It will be Rome v Carthage but the death toll will stretch into the hundreds of millions and a culture will die. It is inevitable. It must happen.

I only hope we are the winners.

Last I saw, the guy was in German custody...maybe they will be more "fierce" in their interrogating than the US would be.

One article I read, said that US investigators are trying to determine if he made it onto the bus and then started shooting, or was it from outside the bus. Does that make a difference who gets to have custody of him.

Pity no one shot the son of a bitch dead right then..or broke his neck when trying to capture him.  :censored:

I first saw it on a tv crawl on CNN while checking into hotel around noontime, and it said it was an "attack". Read an article online that was a from a UK paper, and it said it was a terrorist. Be hard for Soetoro to deny it being "terrorism" when European sources are saying it is.
