From 7/7 to Manchester 2025 – the story they refuse to tell (Islamic immigration!)

From 7/7 to Manchester 2025 – the story they refuse to tell

After the Manchester synagogue attack, I began tracing two decades of Islamic terrorism in Britain – uncovering a disturbing pattern hidden in plain sight. This is not prejudice. It’s record-keeping – and a warning about policies putting us all at risk.

Manchester

I didn’t learn about the Manchester synagogue terrorist attack until I opened my phone after Yom Kippur had ended. I had also missed messages from my cousin, who had witnessed the event and been evacuated from her home by the police.

By 7:30 the following morning, I had already traced the terrorist to a street in Manchester, built his family tree, found the father’s Facebook page, and had seen the extremist support displayed there.

But this post is not about the Manchester attack specifically.

As I looked through the October 7 ‘celebratory’ posts shared by the terrorist’s father, I had a strong sense of déjà vu – and I was taken back to Ali Harbi Ali and the murder of the MP Sir David Amess.

A terrorist with parents born in a war-torn backwater. Extremist posts on the father’s timeline. Family statements insisting they were ‘shocked’ and had no idea where the radicalisation came from.

I started to wonder: How many of the Islamic terror attacks we’ve seen since 7/7 were carried out by someone who was either born overseas – or whose parents were?

This is what I found:

2000s

7 July 2005 – the 7/7 London bombings

Four suicide bombers targeted London’s transport network, killing 52 people and injuring hundreds.

21 July 2005 – the 7/7 copycats

A failed attempt to replicate the 7/7 attacks. Only the detonators exploded. All four principal bombers were born abroad:

Jihad Al-Shamie – born in Syria

Two decades of bloodshed – and a pattern that no serious observer can ignore.

This is not prejudice – it is record-keeping

The names, dates, and convictions are all public. The pattern speaks for itself.

We allow extremists in from war-torn Libya, they blow up the Manchester Arena. From Somalia, they murder a sitting MP. From Syria, they murder Jews outside a synagogue.

These nations, and others like them, are sectarian backwaters full of repression, extremism, division and violence. Yet UK authorities do almost no due diligence before allowing hundreds of thousands to enter each year. It is a suicidal policy – born of false beliefs, left-wing idealism and wilful ignorance.

But that is not the whole story. We also let known Islamic terrorists out of jail – men who have already plotted Islamic terror attacks – and within weeks they have killed on our streets. Our schools have abandoned any sense of national pride or identity – leaving a vacuum – that allows some of the extremists we welcome to pass the hate they brought with them on to their children, here on British soil. And why don’t we push back? Because of failed ideas that give respect where it is neither earned nor due.

And as this continues, we pretend everything is fine. Our borders remain open, with record numbers crossing each year.

During this same period, there were just three deadly far-right attacks (Mohammed Saleem, Jo Cox, Makram Ali) and one of those was a foreign national who had been in the UK less than a week (Pavlo Lapshyn). Yet to ‘balance things up’ our authorities behave – supported by certain media outlets that cannot stop lying to us – as if the threats are equal.

Worse still, the government is now working to introduce a formal definition of ‘Islamophobia’ – something so dangerously misplaced that even writing what you have just read could, one day, be treated as hate speech. It is a back-door to the re-imposition of blasphemy law and a tool to silence those who speak out against suicidal policies.

This is a perfect storm that will only lead to further bloodshed.

It is time to start telling the truth.

--- "This is a perfect storm that will only lead to further bloodshed. It is time to start telling the truth."

Islam is bloodshed. It rages against others, and against schismatic elements within itself, because that is the root.

The Hadith, collected by Bukhari (4.52.220) goes as follows:

"Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet did not benefit by them)."
