Although some of that could just be that the story was blown out of proportion to begin with, so people were prescribing a lot more competence to the shooter than was actually merited.
I thought from the start this was merely...baseline competence. More than we've seen from some losers, and he gets credit for not immediately running after the shots (thus drawing immediate attention), but he brought a gun to the assassination that didn't even cycle.
So, yeah, some of the confusion could just be that people were expecting some elite assassin, when it could (emphasis on could, we still don't know the full story) just be some random retard.
I don't think professional assassins are anywhere near as capable as people think they are. I have no proof of this, of course, but I suspect it's mostly Hollywood glamorization. Just think of how competent they made secret agents, and then compare that to the clowns we have running the intel agencies.
The assassination of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in 2010 showed a pretty high level of coordination and sophistication, from what I remember of Dubai's investigation.
Why did he not flee the country? I dont understand this at all.
Yeah, there's a lot that doesn't add up here.
