Looks like Abu Izzadeen was in prison yesterday.
Still haven’t seen a name of the terrorist yet.

Well they got that one wrong!

Per the Beeb yesterday, there are ocer 3,000 people in the UK who are Islamists on some kind of list. The authorities can’t keep track of that number.

I’ll bet that is horrifically lowball. And the Brits keep importing more.

Tourists should keep that in mind.

Wouldn't it be a good time to round up every jihadist known to police, squeeze them hard for info, and then shoot them all.....

No. For one thing, they would welcome that, both because as martyrs for their faith, they'd know that they were guaranteed entrance to the Gardens of Allah in the next world to which they aspire. And too, their deaths would give proof to their claims that modern-day Crusaders are engaged in a battle against Islam, and instead of facing between three and five per cent of the world's Islamic population in fights in our our own cities, the numbers would grow to ten or fifteen percent.

So please, don't summarily shoot them. Instead, feed them alive to hungry pigs and videorecord the feast. Then shoot the pigs, dissect them and then combine the body parts of both, and return them to their homelands, along with the video.

In the event it does become necessary to clean out the parts of the world where they come from, there are two possibilities: either completely annihilate the population down to the last man, woman and child and repopulate the jurisdiction with our own displaced and homeless refugee population from Mexico and other Central American homesof which we have some 20 million available. If the numbers are small enough that they can be returned to their own societies, let them return to find a regime change, and that now the women are in charge. Look at what you have wrought!

Maybe he was but can you imagine the howls coming from the left / Muzzies if he was denied the right to drive a car. A tough no win situation.

What is a lone wolf? It’s part of a pack, that’s hunting on its own, by its self. No matter the reason that the wolf is alone, a lone wolf is still an animal with pack instincts, pack mentality, which makes them just as dangerous as the rest of the pack.

It's almost as if they won't make any arrests or inquiries until someone dies... It's almost as if they're complicit in allowing this to spread.

The facts suggest otherwise. In the nearly 17 years between the London Tube bombings of 2005 and yesterday, there was only one fatal Islamic terrorist attack in the UK, and that was the notorious street killing of Gunner Lee Rigby. But in the last three years alone, there have been 90+ convictions for conspiracy to cause acts of terrorism. In other words, the police (and MI5) are doing a pretty good job in uncovering and preventing terrorist plans before they happen, which is as it should be.

There is a more insidious war in progress. The war on America by the liberal democrats is far more dangerous and destructive than that attempted by ISIS.

Since death is not allowed, the civil war with the cities is already lost

Correction: kileed the wife of the American professor. Terrorism on the part of the Norwegian Somali was ruled out by the government. Snort.

A lone wolf was driven from the pack by the Alpha male. When Alpha dies, the lone wolf will attempt to gain control of the pack
