DIANE E. has some information on the missing French marksman. He’s apparently of “Yugoslavian” origin. Bosnian Muslim, she wonders?

I think it’s rather a long shot that this guy is involved in the D.C. sniper attacks. And you’d think that a Bosnian Muslim — saved from genocide by United States intervention, after all — would be indisposed toward terror attacks on the United States. On the other hand, the Muslim world has shown scant appreciation for the many U.S. humanitarian interventions benefiting Muslims — after all, we even have anti-American terrorists in Kuwait.

On the other hand, note this passage: “Reports in the French media said that students at Saint-Cry alleged they recognised their comrade in an unofficial police composite drawing of the sniper reportedly shown on TV.” Hmm. Shown on TV in France, but not here?
