      an ambassador to france feels like a very random target in relation to that tbh, and he doesn’t seem like he was very important to the current government, being minister of police during a massacre

        Probably less something to gain and more to send a message and out of some measure of frustration, especially given France is among the countries planning to acknowledge a Palestinian state (if that’s still happening, or has happened)

        Yeah, which would make him more ideal to assassinate. It sends a message to the rest of the SA ambassadors without interfering too much or being overtly obvious as to the motivation.

    Nothin to see here. Definitely nothing suspicious about that AT ALL. I think we can all agree that this is textbook suicide and no one should ask any more questions.

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance).

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
