Manchester Bomber Traveled to Syria With ‘Proven’ Links to Islamic State

France’s interior minister says that the suicide bomber who targeted Manchester is believed to have traveled to Syria and had “proven” links with the Islamic State group.

Gerard Collomb said on BFM television Wednesday that British and French intelligence have information that British-born attacker Salman Abedi had been to Syria. He did not provide details, and said it is unclear whether Abedi was part of a larger network of attackers.

Collomb, who spoke with British Prime Minister Theresa May after the attack at an Ariana Grande concert that killed 22, said the two countries should continue cooperating closely on counterterrorism efforts despite Britain’s pending exit from the European Union.

With France still under a state of emergency after a string of IS attacks, French President Emmanuel Macron is holding a special security council meeting Wednesday.

Exactly. If the Trump travel ban had been in place in the UK those children would be alive.

You’d think Euroweenies would learn - if they go back to their hellholes, don’t let them re-enter Europe.

Facts and causation do not apply to the liberal mind. They cannot accept even the possibility that something about Islam is the cause of this evil in the world. They think the Crusades were a bad thing.

“They think the Crusades were a bad thing. “.....

Guess they never learned WHY there was a crusade in the first place. None-the-less, it’s time for “Crusade II”

Forget about it.Its done. Once you made the decision to admit these lowlifes into your country in huge numbers, you have lost real control of the situation. There are tens of thousands of these deviants in the West thanks to liberal politicians and their “reform” of immigration laws in the 1960’s. At the core of that “reform” was a hatred of white, Christian, capitalist culture. Elections matter. The theft of the 1960 Presidential election that made Kennedy and later Johnson President changed the world forever.

“Manchester Bomber Traveled to Syria With ‘Proven’ Links to Islamic State”{

But they certainly upheld his civil rights didn’t they, so politically correct that they “only” killed 22 people and a beautiful little girl.

Crusades came after Islamic Jihad. Muslims occupied non-islamic countries for centuries. Spain was a prime example of occupancy till driven out.

And they think Charles Martel is the lead singer for a rock band. And the "Battle of Tours" is a reality show for travel agents.

We don't teach history anymore.

Do nothing? Of course they do something coming out of the special security council. They will step up arrests and prosecution of any one who criticizes the wholesale import of “refugees”.
