Morocco tourist murders: Video appears genuine - Norway police

21 December 2018

A video appearing to show the murder of one of two tourists killed in Morocco is almost certainly real, Norwegian police have concluded.

The bodies of university students Maren Ueland and Louisa Vesterager Jespersen were found on Monday near a popular tourist spot in the Atlas mountains.

The men in the video claim the murders were in revenge for events in Syria.

Four men have been arrested. Police say they appeared in a separate propaganda video recorded before the murders.

When I see DUers say “Christians are just as bad!!!”

When was the last time Christians slaughtered infidels like this, centuries ago?

These are from a quick internet search. Not a topic I prefer to spend a lot of time on. I believe ALL murder in the name of any god or religion is ALL bad.
