A man wearing a Help For Heroes T-shirt has reportedly been hacked to death by two machete-wielding assailants in broad daylight in south-east London.
The two knifemen are understood to have been shot by armed police, although Scotland Yard will still only confirm officers had been called to reports of an assault on John Wilson Street at around 2.20pm.
SNIP
Eyewitness James Heneghan told LBC 97.3 he and his wife had witnessed two men hacking at a third with two large kitchen knives.
We saw the whole incident, he said fighting back tears. They were hacking at this poor guy, hacking him, chopping him.
Mr Heneghan claimed one of the suspects had pointed a gun at his wife before they jumped back into his car and called the police.
He went on to claim that after the men had attacked the victim they dragged him into the middle of the street like a piece of meat.
A group of women then rushed to the victim to shield him from further attacks, Mr Heneghan continued, as the two knifemen stopped a passing bus and encouraged passengers to take pictures of them while they posed with their knives.
Woolwich and Greenwich MP Nick Raynsford said that he understood the victim to be a serving soldier from Woolwich Barracks.
Ill be talking to everyone who is involved, we will be trying to do everything possible to try and ensure calm in the area. People will be very, very shocked, he told BBC Radio 5 Live.
We think a serving soldier was the victim. We dont know the circumstances surrounding the incident.
We do know a number of weapons have been seized. They include a gun, various knives, and a machete, apparently.

I point it out because there is a myth in America that the UK is a nation where white people are a minority now. I have been told here on FR that 25% of the UK is Muslim.
I hate multiculturalism. It was a bad idea that has caused nothing but self-segregation, and cultural ghettos. And has allowed the sort of evil we saw yesterday to flourish. Multiculturalism hasnt worked. Even prominent UK black and Asian leaders have said so publicly.
I dont think Americans are stupid, but I do read a lot of rubbish about the UK on here. And I wont apologise for correcting it.
Oh, I suck at many things.
I was heartened to hear there were some anti-Muslim “disturbances” elsewhere later, at least. But these people in the photos are standing there like they’re watching a movie being filmed.
No trial, no niceities. Just IN THE BACK OF THE VAN AND LOAD EM INTO THE HOLD OF A FRIEGHTER.
Shame that the people who fought back Hitler in the summer of 1940 and help kill the Nazi threat are now lemmings inside their own borders. I am disgusted that even though they had no guns to use that some “real” men could not have taken up bricks, trash cans, anything as a weapon and fought these vermin.
America better wake up, the only saving grace for us is the 2nd amendment. These two turds would have lasted about 60 seconds in Texas.
Okay, garage-sale Ecclesiastes!
When is it time for driving Islamic scum into the sea?
Take your time answering.
Just read about this on the UK Telegraph. It took armed police 20 min to respond. Brits are disarmed and defenseless.
Are you from France? I have long defended the French here at FR and told anyone that would listen that the real war against Islam (by the West) would start in France. Looks like I might be right.
guess the cops that are allowed to carry in Britain aren’t suppose to aim for center mass, like LEOs here are required to.
They kill if they have to and are superb marksmen and women, but they shoot to wound if they can.

Hahaha!! Check this out!
As Versha Sharma from Vocativ reports, earlier the EDL tweeted to supporters to get to London now to tell the religion of peace we dont need them here. From Vocativ: The same posts on Facebook have about a thousand likes each and hundreds of comments. While some warn the EDL to stay safe, another one reads, Lets get this civil war started! Over the course of Monday afternoon, the official EDL Facebook page went from 26,000 likes to over 40,000. Before the Woolwich incident, the group was planning a national demonstration on Saturday, May 25.
Anti-Islam backlash in London after machete attack
Priceless! lol Mark my word, EDL membership and other groups like it will more then double after this savage act. Of course the liberal leftist media will try to down play it but they are fighting a loosing battle. Westerners are waking up to their liberal leftist tricks.

No. I'm from another region of Europe, the Balkans, where like France, had historically troubles with Jihadist terrorists. I am glad that groups like Generation Identitaire are popping up, we need more like them, and I love how they are executing their message. IMO the war has already started in countries like France and Southern and Eastern Europe (or better yet has been going on for centuries) because people in those regions have had trouble with Islamists in the far past and most recent eras. Central and Northern Europe not so much until the last few decades because they didn't have to deal with Islamist terrorists until in recent years. The liberal leftist media calls groups like Greece's Golden Dawn, France's Generation Identitaire, Italy's Northern League or Britain's EDL or France's National Front "Right Wing Racist", "Fascists" and "Nazis" but we all know that you give these Jihadist terrorists an inches they'd take a mile. These Isamoterrorists wouldn't dare to pull something like this in any Southern or Eastern European street. Can you see them trying this shit in Moscow? Those machetes they were carrying would be shoved up their asses so fast they won't know what hit them. Video? Yeah there would be video of them, alright, video of Ruskie Mob Street Justice. By the time the Russian police would have gotten there, the only thing left for them to do is pick up the body parts of the Jihadist from the streets of Moscow.
comment from a reporter at the Guardian:
Woolwich suspect Michael Adebolajo had a Muslim name, Mujaahid, which means one who engages in Jihad.
“both were on the radar of intelligence services”...
sounds like here: “the system worked” = FAIL.
“These two turds would have lasted about 60 seconds in Texas.”
not necessarily.
Ft.Hood is in Texas and Major Weirdbeard is still alive and being handsomly paid as well.
Not the same, he was in a gun free zone. Nobody but base police and MP’s can carry inside the gates, just like schools. Guaranteed if this happened on a street they would be confronted by armed Texans.
If you wound here there is a chance the bloodsuckers (lawyers. Barresters )will make you pay for the rest of the perps life. It is a pilice regulation when working with firearms to shoot for center mass. And it is recommended as a civiian to kill a perp breaking into your home rather then having you pay for the cripple for ever.
This Mr. Heneghan is exactly what is wrong with Britain today. He sees an attack, cries like a baby, jumps into his car and lets the women defend the victim. I'm not saying everyone needs to be a hero but my God. How many people were on that street taking pictures and watching rather than trying to stop or even kill this monster?
