Andreas Lubitz: 'White Christian' Germanwings crash pilot 'should be called a terrorist' by Elsa BuchananDebate has been growing on Twitter as commentators line up to slam the French prosecutor in charge of the Germanwings crash investigation, after he said nothing suggested that the co-pilot of the A320 Airbus, which crashed into the French Alps killing all 150 people on board, was a terrorist.
"Nothing to suggest this was a terrorist act," Marseille prosecutor Brice Robin said in a press conference as he announced co-pilot Andreas Lubitz appears to have deliberately brought the plane down, but "voluntarily" manipulating the flight monitoring system. In a blog post published soon after the German authorities declared Lubitz had "no apparent link to terrorist groups", Juan Cole, an American academic and Middle-East commentator, highlighted the question asked by a reporter during the press conference: "What was his religion?"
Germanwings' parent company Lufthansa said it didn't know, to which authorities added there was no evidence the crash was an act of "terrorism".
"Why in the world would his religion be relevant? If he did crash the plane on purpose then presumably he was depressed and wanted not only to commit suicide but also to be a mass murderer. It isn't political terrorism, likely, but certainly it was a terroristic act of killing," Cole wrote.
But we know why they asked, he continues. "It was out of bigotry against Muslims, probing whether another one had gone postal. The subtext is that white Christians don't go off the deep end, even though obviously they do, in large numbers. It isn't a logical question about Andreas Lubitz from Rhineland-Palatinate."
Another journalist, Glenn Greenwald, who is a former columnist on civil liberties and US national security issues for the Guardian, pointed about how "different [the] coverage would be already if [the] co-pilot were Mohammed Al-Masaood, son of Egyptian immigrants"
