    Terrorist Attack in Netherlands

    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-n...-idUSKCN1QZ10X

    Dutch security forces were hunting for a 37-year-old Turkish man suspected of having shot several people, one of them possibly fatally, on a tram in the city of Utrecht on Monday, in what authorities said appeared to be a terrorist attack.

    Authorities raised the terrorism threat to its highest level in Utrecht province, schools were told to shut their doors and paramilitary police increased security at airports and other vital infrastructure, and also at mosques.

    Aalbersberg, who said the shooting “appears to be a terrorist attack”, declined to comment on the number of injured or on their condition and did not confirm any deaths.

    The mayor of the Dutch city of Utrecht says that three people have been killed in an attack on a tram and adds that a “terror motive” is the most plausible option.

    Jan van Zanen also said that nine have been wounded, three of them seriously.

    Van Zanen said that “we cannot exclude, even stronger, we assume a terror motive. Likely there is one attacker, but there could be more.”

    Dutch authorities have named a 37-year-old Turkey-born man as linked to the tram shooting.


    Well this sucks, hopefully they get the guy.

    @Thwart This is now a terror attack and no longer just a shooting so it deserves its own thread.

    According to Turkish sources spoke to bbc, he was arrested for rape-murder attempt and having ties to isis, had been to Chechnya and yet he was walking free. Gotta love the system.

    Hopefully the mods will have the sense to leave this one open instead of directing people to a thread about a completely different topic.

    I hope the victims recover fully and they catch this guy. It doesn't make a lot of sense for crimes like this to happen in a place like the Netherlands.

    Apart from the fact that an escalation of violence is senseless...

    Most terrorist attacks in europe are comitted by people actually living in these cities. And that makes a lot of sense, because they know their surroundings and can plan. Should they fly into the US and plan there, without any knowledge/contacts/language? That would make much less sense.

    Or do you mean by senseless, because of Netherlands? True that, but radicalized people (like most terrorists, wont speculate about this case) are not known for their bullet proof logic.

    I don't want to derail this thread into another topic, but i don't think its helpful as displaying the entire human race as something bad and unworthy. Sure these terror attacks are horrible, but in comparison to the whole population of the planet, they are extremely rare.

    And we humans are great at working together.

    Sure there are some cooperation measurements (speed, discipline) that work better with other species, but look at how we have transformed our planet (for good and worse) and which power we have to change our surroundings, not based on physical prowess of the individual, but because of our excellent cooperation. Apart from a big brain, the big rise for our species, came because we can cooperate on a grand scale like no other species. Yeah, we got some rotten eggs - very rotten, but we can still achieve great things through cooperation.

    Seems that he shouted Allahu Ackbar and had ties to ISIS, so it's likely we will never know what his true motivations for such an attack were.
