3 December 2011, Nordine Amrani Not Muslim Not Arabic Speaking Moroccan Arab Not Terrorist A non-terrorist motivated murder–suicide attack took place in the city of Liège in the Wallonia region of Belgium by a French-speaking Belgian of Arab islamic nation of Moroccan origin who could not speak Arabic nor was he Muslim. Investigators said repeatedly that the motive was not terrorism. According to his lawyers, he launched his attack on Christmas shopping crowds because knew that he was going to be sent back to prison and had a "grudge against society", not because he was some kind of a secret Islamist terrorist. attack occurred on the same day as the 2011 Florence shootings where two market traders from Senegal were killed by Gianluca Casseri, who wounded three other Senegalese traders in another market. According to Florentine prosecutor Giuseppe Quattrocchi, the killer shot himself dead as he was approached by police in a car park. The attack was racially motivated but not a terrorist attack according to authorities. The 50-year-old accountant from Pistoia had a history of involvement in far-right politics
Alternative theory: If an ethnic muslim arab walks like a terrorist and quacks like one.... he's not a Islamist terrorist.

Belgium, Islam, and the Boomerang of Loon Idiocy (pro-islam) by Ilisha on December 15, 2011 i
Francois Lenoir/Reuters Women lit candles on Wednesday in memory of victims at the site of a gun and grenade attack in Liege, Belgium.
On Tuesday, after the grenade attack in Belgium, Loonwatch exposed Robert Spencer’s feeble attempt to pin it on Muslims here. He immediately jumped to the conclusion that the perpetrator, Nordine Amrani, was a Muslim with sinister Islamic motives. Spencer wasn’t alone.
All the usual suspects also jumped the gun: Belgium, Islam and the Boomerang of “Multiculturalism” (Frontpage Magazine – thanks for the title idea), Belgium Grenade Attack by Muslim[s] 4 Dead, 75 wounded (Atlas Shrugs), Belgium: Honor Killing Trial Causes Jihad With Hand Grenades (Winds of Jihad).
Apparently the loons are unaware that Amrani is typically a Mizrahi Jewish surname. It is reckless to guess because names can be deceiving, but if Amrani’s Jewish origin is confirmed, will the loons suddenly agree with us that the religious and ethnic heritage of the perpetrator shouldn’t be relevant?
As the bigots are fond of pointing out, Nordine Amrani is of Moroccan extraction, though he was born and raised in Belgium. According to an article in the New York Times, Amrani considered himself Belgian, didn’t speak a word of Arabic, and was not a Muslim.
In the absence of facts, it seems anti-Muslim bigots just manufacture whatever sensational headlines suit their hateful agenda. Authorities say the attack is not religiously motivated:
‘No religious motive in Liege rampage’
The Belgium grenade attack which killed three people and injured 123 has sent shockwaves through the country. However, Glyn Ford, a former Member of the European Parliament, stresses that individual motives are the key to understanding such attacks.

Mar 23, 2016 - In December 2011, Mossad paid a visit to Belgium city of Liege, killing three people and injuring another 75. The lone gunman identified by police as Nordine Amrani killed himself before arrest. The Zionist press turned Nordine Amrani into: Nordine = Nur deen, a Muslim name – Amrani = Imran, the father of prophet Moses in Holy Qur’an.

[hide]Attack[edit]
The attack took place on 13 December 2011, at 12:33 local time (11:33 UTC) in Saint-Lambert Square, home to the town's courthouse. It was a busy day with many shoppers in the nearby Christmas market.
Witnesses reported four explosions and gunfire. At first, it was believed that there were two or more assailants, who threw stun grenades into the courthouse while another hurled them at a bus shelter. The gunman then fired shots with a 7.62×51mm NATO FN FAL from the rooftop of a bakery shop, located across the square.[3] Police were on the scene quickly and sealed off the square.[7]
Amrani killed five people in the attack and wounded 125 others, seven seriously. After that, Amrani committed suicide by shooting himself with a Smith & Wesson M57 .41 Magnum revolver.[8] Two of the dead were teenage boys aged 15 and 17. A 17-month-old boy died later in a hospital.[9]A 75-year-old woman died from her injuries two days after the attack.[5][10] A fifth victim, who had been in an induced coma since the attack, died of head injuries on 23 December.[11]

Perpetrator[edit]
Nordine Amrani (15 November 1978 – 13 December 2011) was born in Ixelles/Elsene in Brussels, Belgium. He was a French-speaking Belgian of Moroccanorigin and a welder by trade.[12] According to Amrani's lawyer, he could not speak Arabic nor was he Muslim.[13] Amrani was known to have an interest in guns, with a history of convictions for possession of weapons.[14]
He grew up near Brussels, and was living with his fiancée, a care home nurse.[15] Orphaned early, he was raised in foster homes.[16][17]
Amrani had been released from prison in October 2010. He had been convicted to a 58-month (4 years, 10 months) sentence he received from a Liège court in 2008. The conviction was for possession of thousands of weapons parts, almost 10,000 rounds of ammo, dozens of weapons, including a rocket launcher, assault and sniper rifles, as well as 2,800 cannabis plants, in the context of a criminal conspiracy (association de malfaiteurs). He also had convictions for handling stolen goods and sex offences but had no known links to terror groups.[15] On the day of the attack, Amrani had been summoned for an interview with the police to answer questions about a sexual abuse case.[16]
Before the attack, Amrani transferred money from his account to that of his girlfriend. On the morning of the attack, Amrani killed a 45-year-old woman in his apartment. The victim was working as a cleaner for Amrani's neighbour. He possibly lured her into his flat under the pretext of offering her work. After the murder, he hid her body in his shed, then left his flat for the city centre, equipped with a backpack containing the weapons.[18]
Reaction[edit]
Domestic[edit]
Recently appointed Prime Minister of Belgium Elio Di Rupo visited the location of the attack later in the day and described the attack as "horrible". He added, "The whole country shares the pain of the families affected. We share the shock of the population."[19][20][21] The King of the Belgians, Albert II was shocked and visited Liège on the same day, along with Queen Paola. Their majesties were received by the Governor, the Prime Minister and the Lord Mayor of Liège. The Duke of Brabant, prince Philippe honoured the victims in a public ceremony later.[22] In the Chamber of Representatives of Belgium a minute of silence was held in honour of the victims.
Willy Demeyer, the mayor of Liège, condemned the attack and said the attack had "sown sorrow in the heart of the city".[19]
International[edit]
Condolences were expressed by the governments of Australia,[23] Estonia,[24] Latvia,[25] Lithuania,[26] Luxembourg,[27] Singapore[28] and the United Kingdom.[29]

The attacker, 33-year-old Nordine Amrani, killed five and left 125 others injured, ... According to Amrani's lawyer, he could not speak Arabic nor was he Muslim.
Miss Amrani, the lawyer, dismissed any possible terrorist motives for the attack. "He did not feel at all Moroccan. He did not speak a word of Arabic and was not Muslim. What he said is that he felt a Belgian," she said. "He was crazy about weapons but as a collector. He felt he had not had much luck in life and felt unfairly treated by the courts. This was a 'ras-le-bol' of a tormented soul: estranged from justice, and against society."
A weapons aficionado, he was said to be able to dismantle, repair and put together all sorts of weapons but was never linked to any terrorist act or network, AFP news agency reports.
