Danish media: Copenhagen gunman 'wasn't afraid to express hatred for Jews'

A former classmate of Copenhagen gunman Omar el-Hussein told Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet on Monday described a loner who was fixated on his religion and the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians.

"He loved to discuss Islam," said the former classmate, identified only as Victor. "In particular, he often discussed the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. (And) he was not afraid to say openly that he hated Jews."
