Attacks in Germany Over Last Weekend

Focus (the German news magazine) came up with a short piece this morning....chatting over the odd occurrence in the last weekend of four Islamic mosques or Turkish-organizations being 'lit-up' (molotov cocktail type fire). 

It has been lightly carried on public TV (barely mentioned).  To be honest, it's not something that occurs much, and to have four in one weekend.....in four different German states....is a bit odd.

So what has come up is Turkey getting into the middle of this and suggesting that the PKK (the Kurdish Worker's Party) were the ones involved. 

The German cops?  They are still investigating and have not made any real public statement.

The odds of some right-wing or Nazi-like group?  There's simply no evidence laying out there. But the fact that four events occur over a 48-hour period, in four different locations?  It's simply speculation.  The possibility that some Turkish political action group did it?  That would be only speculation as well.
