Talk:2015 Amman shooting attack

this was a jihadist attack
im not sure for what motive some editor has done a white wash on this page and attempted to cover the facts of this case

this attack was premeditated he did not simply have the gun in his hand, he smuggled it in especially to carry out the attack

Several accounts from officials with contacts in the security forces said Abu Zeid had smuggled an assault rifle and two handguns into the compound in his car. As an officer, he was not searched as he entered.

Security sources said that shortly after noon prayers he charged into a canteen on the compound, shouted Allahu Akbar (God is the greatest) and fired at least 50 bullets.

we have 1. smuggled in the gun, this was planned 2. shouted allahu akbar 3.A close confidant of the attacker, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Abu Zeid had felt increasingly humiliated and angry at working in a job where U.S. trainers seen as "enemies of Islam were defiling his country."

this is through and through a classic lone wolf jihadi attack

 * This was released on exactly the same day as the attack. The sources used in the article are after thorough investigations, even with American supervision. Makeandtoss (talk) 21:25, 2 June 2016 (UTC)


 * I don't care what any friend said. There was an extensive investigation by relevant authorities and the official press conference by the Jordanian minister of interior declared that it was not a "jihadi" attack. If you want to argue that Jordan's minister is lying, there was no condemnation from the American government, it was rather endorsed. Makeandtoss (talk) 10:32, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

you don't care about any facts, evidentally

you haven't read the investigation, you were not present at the press conference, you have read a third-hand account of the "investigation" the very article you linked has given me even more evidence I am correct

Security sources had earlier told Reuters on condition of anonymity there was growing evidence of radical Islamist influences on Abu Zeid.Abu Zeid, a pious young man, had grown more religious in recent months and told close relatives he wanted to leave his job because he was unable to tolerate working in an environment where American defence personnel were present, security sources said.He performed prayers before heading to a canteen where he sprayed bullets randomly at those who were there,Nearly 2,000 people attended Abu Zeid’s funeral on Thursday in his home town, with scores chanting “death to America” and accusing the authorities of a coverup over what really happened.

2000 people attended the guys funeral in Jordan, they are the guys friends, family, tribe and they all believed he carried out the jihadi attack and was a martyr and they were all screaming death to america

yes, the jordanian minister is a liar and deceiver just like you — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.112.144.10 (talk) 21:40, 3 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Ok I am a liar and the minister is a liar and the US government is also hiding truth because there's this some sort of conspiracy. The outcome of the investigation was not a "jihadi" attack, as seen in reliable sources. If you have other reliable sources that say otherwise, you are more than welcome to show them to me. But don't come here acting like some sort of investigator collecting statements and fabricating stories that you think are the reality. This is how wikipedia works.
