Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
The man who shot and killed a Canadian soldier in the capital yesterday before being shot and killed by RCMP and security personnel has been identified as 32-year-old Michael Zehaf-Bibeau.
The attack was the second terrorist attack by ISIS sympathetic Islamic extremists this week.
“We will not be intimidated. Canada will never be intimidated,” Prime Minister Stephen Harper said following the shooting.
“In the days to come we will learn about the terrorist and any accomplices he may have had,” Harper vowed. “[This will] lead us to strengthen our resolve and redouble our efforts” in the fight against terror.
Officials say that Zehaf-Bibeau’s father was a businessman from Quebec who went to fight in Libya in 2011 and that the gunman also spent time in Libya.
After initial searches for more gunmen, the Canadian government now says they believe that Zahef-Bibeau acted alone.
