If you allow in people whose young support terrorist attacks - even at 30% levels - you cannot be surprised when such attacks happen in your country. The comments from people who in the past said that England and France were in for a lot of trouble seem to have been prescient. Even the law abiding Muslims will not be able to know of every terrorist who has half a brain before they attack.

A woman shot dead by two cyclists near a playground in north London has been identified by police. Mohanna Abdhou was shot in Malvern Road, Kilburn, on Friday night and died at the scene. Post-mortem tests gave the cause of death as a single gunshot wound. Police believe the 20-year-old, known as Montana, was standing with a group when they were approached by "two males" on bicycles who fired "a number of shots at the group". Details: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-40079394 FYI: England and Wales saw 'small but genuine' increases in murder and other violent crimes in 2016, including 13-14% increases in gun and knife crime, according to the latest police-recorded crime figures.

British Intelligence Warned Tony Blair of Manchester-Like Terrorism if the West Invaded Iraq
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has yet to say anything about Monday’s heinous, nihilistic suicide bombing at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England. According to current reporting, the attack has been claimed by ISIS and was carried out by a 22-year-old man born in Manchester to Libyan refugees. But when Blair does speak, we can be certain he won’t mention one key fact: Before the 2003 invasion of Iraq led by the U.S. and U.K., he was forcefully and repeatedly warned by Britain’s intelligence services that it would lead to exactly this type of terrorist attack — and he concealed these warnings from the British people, instead claiming the war would reduce the risk of terrorism. We know this because of the Chilcot Report, the seven-year-long British investigation of the Iraq War released in 2016. The report declassifies numerous internal government documents that illustrate the yawning chasm between what Blair was being told in private and his claims in public as he pushed for war.

Labour are making huge issues over their hardness on terrorism. Three of their front bench spokespersons, including the leader, were members of Troops Out, a pro IRA group in the 1970s and 80s which spoke against action against IRA Terrorists! Corbyn, made a huge issue about British Foreign Policy towards the Middle East being a cause of the current problems, would that not include Blair's two illegal crusades against Islamic nations then?

It would - but I'm pretty sure Corbyn himself voted against. I'm sure he spoke to us at the anti-Iraq rally a few years back but he wasn't so well known then.

A funny tale about the protests though! My sister took part, then afterwards went back to her overnight guest accommodation! At the Military Police station in Victoria, at which my nephew was serving as an RMP sergeant! Her brother btw, was en route to Iraq! |
