[96467] The shooting in Montreal: Police are examining a manifesto calling for violence against women
The Montreal attack investigation: Police are examining the shooter's manifesto
Following the shooting attack that took place yesterday in Montreal, Canada, media outlets report that authorities are focusing on a wide-ranging manifesto found in the possession of the suspect who carried out the shooting. The manifesto, which spans more than 100 pages, includes extreme chauvinistic content and advocates for explicit violence against women.
News Israel IL note that this finding may indicate that this was not a targeted attack against Jews, although it is important to qualify that according to Asaf Rozenzweig, News from the big world, "at this hour there is no official confirmation of the motive."
Despite the emerging direction pointing to an ideological-chauvinistic motive, Canadian law enforcement officials have not yet released a final statement regarding the exact reasons that led to the execution of the attack. Reports in News Israel IL and on Asaf Rozenzweig's channel remain cautious at this stage and emphasize that the police investigation is still ongoing.
