PM Theresa May says Finsbury Park attack was "evil" Islamophobic terrorism.

• An unnamed white man drove into people exiting a Mosque in north London in the early hours Monday morning, killing one and leaving at least 10 others injured.
• May says security at mosques across Britain will be reviewed in wake of the attack.

LONDON — Prime Minister Theresa May has denounced the attack on Finsbury Park Mosque an act of Islamophobic terrorism "every bit as sickening" as other attacks against Britain in recent months.

Speaking at Number 10 Downing Street on Monday morning, May said the attack in north London in the early hours of this morning was against "ordinary and innocent" British muslims.

"It was an attack that targeted the ordinary and the innocent," the prime minister said.

"Today we come together as we have done before to condemn this act and state an act of hatred of this kind will never succeed in dividing us.

"Like all terrorism, in whatever form, it shares the same goal: to drive us apart. We will not let this happen.

"There has been far too much tolerance of extremism in this country," May added. "That's extremism of any kind — including Islamaphobia".

The prime minister was speaking in Westminster after a man who is yet to be named drove a white van into a group of worshippers exiting Finsbury Park Mosque, north London in the early hours of Monday morning.

The attack has killed one man and injured 10 others, so far. A 48-year-old man has been arrested. The police confirmed at 6:53 a.m. BST (1:53 a.m. ET) that they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the attack.

Funny no one ever notices the words they are using. TERROR-ism. Meant to strike TERROR. IslamoPHOBIA ... fear. In other words, terrorizing people leads them to fear you. Well, no kidding, really? I think anyone committing an act of Islamophobia should use that as their legal defense: driven to mindless fear by terrorism. A form of temporary insanity. Not controllable.

Barf.

Already the reaction to this is overboard compared to all the Moslem scum incidents who by their very rulebook must kill.

This is indeed a case of “context”. But that will not be considered because the perp is the wrong kind.

Finsbury Park Mosque

The most radical in the entire West. Home of numerous infamous terrorists, including Abu Hamza, Zacarias Moussaoui and Richard Reid. The only mosque actually mentioned by name in the series "24". If someone had driven into the Westboro Baptist Church the media would say the Phelps family deserved it. This entire incident seems VERY suspicious to me.

A bigger tragedy is the coming backlash against 40-something, white males.

The UK is finished. The star and crescent will replace the Union Jack in about 20 years.

Has the mayor warned about the perils of a reaction against Westerners? Mebbe he has laryngitis.

Hmmm. Was there any comment about the “kneading” of 250 Christian kids 4 years old and under in a dough mixer?

Notice in this anti-christian, PC world, the 99%+ daily attacks on the innocent are made by Muslim jihadists, but are characterized by the world and the Leftist media as simply “terrorist attacks”, usually no mention of “Muslim”, Islam, or “jihad”.

BUT...in the rare instance of someone attacking a mosque - oh my, the attack is blazoned with “ISLAMOPHOBIA”.

What utter bull sh#t.

So, the moslems can dish it out, but they can’t take it.
