Live stream of deadly German synagogue attack shows brutal yet bumbling assault

After minutes of stillness punctuated by clicks and muttering, the camera pans up and shows the close-shaved, youthful face of a man looking into the lens.

On Wednesday in the east German city of Halle, the man before the camera is preparing to commit a violent assault against a synagogue that will devolve into a random, blundering search for fresh targets.

German media identified him as Stephan Balliet, 27. Bild described him as a neo-Nazi loner with no friends who spent days in front of his computer.

The shooter’s technique recalls the self-presentation of the man who killed 51 and wounded dozens at a mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand, in March.

In a heavy German accent, he hurriedly babbles a brief anti-Semitic diatribe, denying the Holocaust and blaming Jews for being “at the root of problems” in Western societies.
