QuoteQuebec City Police say several people are dead after shots were fired inside a mosque on Sunday night during evening prayers.Multiple people are also feared wounded. Their condition is not known at this time.

Quebec City Police Const. Étienne Doyon said mostly men were gathered inside the Islamic cultural centre of Quebec in the Sainte-Foy neighbourhood when the shooting began just before 8 p.m.

The president of the centre, Mohammed Yangui, said at least five people were killed, but that information has not been confirmed by police.

He added that he thought somewhere between 60 and 100 people were inside when the shooting began.

At the moment of the attack, the men were praying on the ground floor of the building, while women and children were upstairs.
Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard said the shooting is an act of terrorism.

Two suspects have been arrested, one of whom was apprehended after a chase that ended near l'île d'Orléans.

A large perimeter has been set up around the mosque.

Quebec City Police said they are working with the RCMP and the Quebec provincial police. At 10:40 p.m. police said the "situation is under control."

"The building is secure and the occupants evacuated. The investigation continues," wrote Quebec City Police on Twitter.
A witness, who asked to remain anonymous, told CBC's French-language service Radio-Canada that two masked individuals entered the mosque.

"It seemed to me that they had a Quebecois accent. They started to fire, and as they shot they yelled, 'Allahu akbar!' The bullets hit people that were praying. People who were praying lost their lives. A bullet passed right over my head," said the witness.

"There were even kids. There was even a three-year-old who was with his father."

Same day a mosque about an hour away from me, vandalized several times, burned down.

But not Canadian/US stormtroopers, right?  A few years back, we had a rash of church burnings, including one in my town.  It wasn't an apocalypse.  The Black congregation rebuilt (yes, it was a Black congregation that was hit here).  It was firebombed by one of two homeless men who were living together ... it had no political or religious reason.

Of course unfortunate that this happened ... but in the US, mosques are most frequently associated with Blacks, not with Arabs ... except around Detroit.

This is what happens when the mental illness of Comrade Don the Orange Fuhrer infects people's minds. The cure to right-wing nutterism is education (which is why right-wingers hate academics, universities and intellectuals). (Actually, anyone who opposes intellectuals is admitting he's stupid.)

As far as I have read on the web, the gunmen were Muslims.
Apparently it was some minor theological disagreement, which was solved in the traditional Islamic manner with their preferred tool, the AK 47.



Allahu akbar.

Interesting. So I thought all Muslims were United against us, and that Islam is unquestionable and unchangeable. How could they have theological differences?

The PM of Canada is very liberal.  And Canadians aren't Americans, eh.  There are plenty of people, who aren't racist, who might target an Arabic Mosque.

White nationalist terrorist attacking Muslims in a mosque... maybe we should deny entry to white people, because there are terrorists amid their ranks.

Yes, white nationalist.

Marksmanship needs to be dramatically improved. How sad, 50 scum, and he only killed 5. It was a good start.

A smart Atheist would. Anyone who is an atheist and defends islamic scum is obtuse. They want to kill all who do not belong to their death cult.

Alexandre Bissonnette was a apparently a fan of Trump and Le Pen, and was known among those who knew him to hold rather extreme right-wing sentiments. And then he went to a mosque and shot innocent Muslims. So yes, I would call him an Islamophobic bigot. All of these are highly correlated with racism, so the likelihood of him being a racist is extremely high.

So, not the Moroccan, but a local guy ... much like the young man just sentenced to death in the US for shooting up a church.  Very disturbed young men.  This is why, back in the day, you drafted such young men, and let them work their terror overseas ;-(

Hopefully he will be recognized as a terrorist, and not just a "lone wolf" with "emotional problems".

Not only Muslims and brown-skinned people are terrorists. Timothy McVeigh, Eric Rudolph, abortion clinic bombers, etc. were terrorists too.

Oh, yeah, when racists target and kill many people, they're not Christian white-supremacist terrorists, they're "disturbed young men." But when a Muslim kills anyone they're a fanatical Islamic terrorist bent on the destruction of America and Christianity.


yeah, right.
