Are these the cadre of Obama's shock troops?
Dress rehersal for the upcoming political conventions?
In this day and age of hyper-terrorist threat, what did he expect Britain to do? Did he fail to understand that the Olympics is a great big huge target? Evidently so.
I don’t see the heightened defense measures to be something inappropriate. We don’t want a Munich repeat.
Now this may mean that I am a mindless dreg willing to give up all liberty to be safe. Or it may make me someone who realizes the age we live in, where there are serious threats that need to be eliminated.
If security was not elevated and something happened, this same writer would be out there with an article slamming the careless British government.
You can’t really win these days.
Were there not as large of a Muslim population as there is today in London, I doubt the security would be quite as stringent. As Ann Coulter once stated: every Muslim may not be a terrorist but to date, just about every terrorist has been a Muslim. England is just being vigilant, not oppressive. That could change but I don't see it happening...yet.
They opened the floodgates to Muslims, now they have to protect themselves from them. And if riot control over natives emerges from it, all the better. Owebama wants to do the same here.
I do heartily agree that seems to be the model for what is taking place here too.
Let people in from terrorist nations, and then strip your decent citizens just trying to visit family or go on vacation.
With an event like this one though, it does seem like it’s reasoned to elevate security. I don’t know what else you can do, once you’ve let the fox within the hen house.
Both nations need to do a hell of a lot of revoking visiting visas. Some folks are entrenched in our society, and are harder to evict. With one problematic incident, that should be remedied.
Those guys who got up on that flight and made an outlandish prayer service to Allah scaring the hell out of the other passengers, should have been deported. And frankly, I don’t even care if they were citizens.
The last I heard, G4S is having problems getting close to that number. The pay is too low, the contract sucks, and a lot of security professionals see it for what it's worth.
‘However, with the U.K now having a large Muslim population’
Really, because I could swear that we dont. In fact 96% of the population is NOT Muslim. And some of the 4% who are are white converts, black Afro-Caribbean converts, white Muslims from Eastern Europe (Kosovo for example), and Muslims from Asia (Malaysia, Singapore).
Why do Americans think Britain is overrun with Muslims?.
‘As Ann Coulter once stated: every Muslim may not be a terrorist but to date, just about every terrorist has been a Muslim.’
If she said that, then that has to be one of the stupidest comments ever uttered.
Don’t forget the drones and manpower donated by the Central Socialist Government of The United States.
Islam will NEVER be compatible with Christianity and Judaism. NEVER. So they need to be deported to an arab nation of their choosing.
We fight in Afghanistan, Iraq building airports, embassies, training their people to take care of themselves. America is incapable under the non-standards of the current evil regime to take care of our own nation! We spend billions on foreign countries but can’t defend our own nation. DHS, TSA is a laugh.
Perhaps the Olympic games should be suspended until the muslims are ALL contained in their desert empires. They have no business here unless we are hell bent on suicide.
Yes indeedy!
There’s several articles floating around the website that cover that. One claims that the million or so rounds of hollow-point ammo were ordered by the federales for use by their special units. These troops are also to be used during the election process and afterwards in case the unwashed hordes of the uneducated riot in the event that this Bozo loses.
I would have put a freeze on immigration from terrorist states. Unfortunately that means almost all Middle-Eastern nations. You could also include much of Southern Asia in that group.
Until these cultures decide to live in peace with others, I would not include them in my list of guests. As you said, unless we’re hell bent on suicide.
It’s not our fault that they are spoon fed doses of hate the U. S. and Western culture in their mosques. It is what it is and we’re stuck with dealing with it like we would a stick of dynamite.
As for the games, we’ve got the camel’s nose inside the tent. It’s too late now to do much of anything other than increase security.
Over time, I’d reduce the amount of people from the regions I mentioned. You can do so if they get out of line at all. Revoke their visas. If they are at all connected to any enterprises that might threaten your populace, deport them anyway.
The onus is on them. It isn’t our fault if they hate us. We don’t have to lay down and die, just because we wish the world was a peaceful place.
If she said that, then that has to be one of the stupidest comments ever uttered.
Why? Terrorism - essentially the wanton murder en masse of innocents is inherent in the Muslim concept of jihad. Islam is the only religion extant that makes the murder of 'infidels' (non-Muslims) and especially Jews a solemn part of it's doctrine, thus justifying the killing of innocents that, in many cases, are also Muslims. It is a barbaric religion and it's victims corpses from around the world are piled up to the heavens while the murderers continue to terrorize the world with shouts of "Allahu Akbar" yet Ann Coulter's comment is 'stupid'? I don't think so.
If Ann Coulter thinks that every terrorist has been a Muslim, the women is an idiot.
How long has terrorism existed?. Answer: a century, give or take. How many terrorists have been Muslim?. Answer: some.
There have been thousands of terrorists, dozens of groups, thousands killed and maimed, all by terrorists whose ideology is not Muslim. In many cases not even religious.
So how can anyone with ANY knowledge of terrorism, of history, of the modern world, say that most terrorists have been Muslim?.
Islam has been present in the United Kingdom since its formation in 1707,[1] though it was not legally recognised until the Trinitarian Act in 1812. Today it is the second largest religion in the country with estimates suggesting that by 2010 the total Muslim population had reached 2.869 million.[2][3] Between 2001 and 2009, Islam was the fastest growing religion in the UK, with the Muslim population increasing roughly 10 times faster than for the rest of society.[4]
Yes?. And?.
The fact remains that 96% of the UK is NOT Muslim. Immigration has been and will be reduced over the coming years. And Scotland, Wales, NI and the north of England have small or tiny Muslim populations. Most British Muslims live in the Midlands or SE of England.
They havent conquered us, they dont run us.
Much as some people would like to believe the hysteria.
Do muslims exert any influence on Great Britain?
