Yet if you were to describe him you'd say from middle east extraction.

You will probably find that though this is undoubtedly the legal case his peers still considered him an ethnic and as such gave him a hard time. His birth certificate would not have interested them, they probably went by appearance and mannerisms, unfortunately. Paperwork doesn't sway prejudice. And for sure, recent events are increasing that prejudice in some European countries

This could well be true
The bigoted posters here dont care. All they care is about is his ethnicity and religion. Yet when you call the out on it, you've already seen what happens.

tbh one thing here, whenever theres a "bullied kid kills ****load of random strangers" thing, everyone goes on about how the bullies must have picked on him for his name, his poverty, ethnicity etc.
its quite possible he got bullied cause he was an *******.
as he later proved true.

Where your born is seeming to be largely irrelevant. The 7/7 bombers were born in the UK, yet they were all of a similar apprearance too, no?
It seems brown people killing Europeans is flavour of the month at the moment. Would he have taken these lives if other ISIS inspired events hadn't occured. Could it be said ISIS is indirectly involved?
We had this link yet?

After the Cologne cover-ups by the German media/authorities I think people will be actively looking for possible cases but this one did strike me as odd.
I always take these sorts of sites with a pinch of salt but as much as it pains me to say (having proud German citizenship) I actually think there could be something bring swept under the carpet here.

Very, very little to do with it. As has been seen for generations the first people to arrive in a country(any country) will assimilate partly. Their offspring, born in the new country will almost totally be a citizen of the new country with a nod towards their ethnic background. The next generation is totally assimilated and wonders how their grandparents could have lived. You get the odd person who may return but the pattern has been shown throughout history.

the police have named him a David S, perhaps they have official documentation showing that being his name or something and Ali being his middle name.

He killed 4 Turks, Kosavans and a few others. His motivations were white mass shooters like Andreas brevik and US white school shooters.
It seems your stuck on his skin colour which is your problem.
If I had to guess David was his widely used name.

It's not a problem. It's an observation.

An observation you're stuck on not allowing you too see the obvious, a problem.

Have you noticed how he is male?
Just another irrelevant observation for you.
Shall we make more?
Unless you of course you believe your observation isn't irrelevant. In which case please explain why rather than just making observations.
Not saying it is or isn't the case here but not uncommon in my experience, especially those with split western/middle east nationality to use more than one name and/or use their first and middle name interchangeably - I know someone whose fullname is incredibly long because it is made up of:
Arabic name (which is used interchangeably with a western equivalent of it), western name which is also used interchangeably with the first, father's name, grandfather's name and then a mixture of family/tribal name and surname in one.

I'd guess not actually, that was a link to his FB page when it was active.
e2a - as far as the UK media trying to defuse some tension by using 'David' as his given name, I don't think it is beyond the realms of possibility.

I think over time we'll get interviews with people that knew him. What they call him will be revealing.
It's certainly possible everyone called him Ali, but the BBC were saying he was named locally as David Sonboly, before his name was officially released.
Whilst it is possible, the media were deliberately dropping Ali, but I think it is more likely he was known as David.

Judging by the post of yours I think you are correct!
