Initial thinking is the terrorist tried to get in the festival and failed and detonated himself.

Suicide bomber raises the stakes as they normally are cell based.
Statistically very few lone wolf suicide bombers due to the bomb making skills.
Most lone wolf attackers favor firearms and other weapons.
Vast majority of suicide bombers are team players.

Apparently he was refused entry to the music festival, ran off into the restaurant and blew it up.

Fairly sophisticated device in a backpack. Seems to have been linked to a hand held detonator...

Yeah... good old open borders. Not only do we have a destabilized Libya and Syria.. seems most of Europe is going to be destabilized too. Weekly bombings, shootings, trucks and hacking.

I guess the only option is for Europeans to flee to iceland or something lol.

Not a damn thing if they are legal and have been adequately vetted. One hell of a lot, if they have not.

They are trying to downgrade both the explosion and the machete killer. The explosion as "we don't know if he intended to hurt people or suicide". The machete killer, they say its a crime of passion and that he had the pregnant woman was in a dispute.

lol...

Well, what is there to say...

Thanks Merkel and the rest of the lot. Thanks for taking a gamble with our security.
And it's sad, really sad. There are some genuine refugees as well who are very happy they have been able to leave a warzone.. These people will suffer because some of their ex-countrymen did some horrible stuff in the name of bull$#@!. That is truly sad. Group-thinking will replace individualism for as far as that hasn't happened already. I don't like that trend.
