London terrorist had twice been referred to police over his extremist views

One of the three jihadists who murdered revellers in central London on Saturday had been reported to the anti-terror police on at least two occasions, it has been claimed.

A former friend of the terrorist, who was shot dead by police along with two accomplices, claimed he had been radicalised while watching YouTube videos and said he contacted the authorities ­after becoming concerned over his friend’s extremist views.

A neighbour also claimed she had contacted police in Barking, east London, after the suspect tried to convert her children to Islam and radicalise them. The man is not being named at the request of the police.

The former friend claimed he contacted police after comments the man made about other previous attacks. But he said the authorities had failed to act and take action despite evidence of increasingly extremist views.

The friend told the BBC’s Asian Network that the terrorist had been radicalised watching videos of the infamous American hate preacher Ahmad Musa Jibril.

He said: “We spoke about a particular attack that happened and like most radicals he had a justification for anything and everything and that day I 
realised I needed to contact the authorities.”

He added: “He used to listen to a lot of Musa Jibril. I have heard some of this stuff and its very radical. I am surprised this stuff is still on YouTube and is easily accessible.

If you see something, say something.

Unless it's a Muslim.

You Racist.

Even if you are Muslim too.

Still Racist.

Thousands of known threats. Time for the English to bring back prison ships.

youtube again!?

Nothing he heard in his mosque or anything like that, eh?

[Organic Panic]

Captain Louis Renault remains shocked, SHOCKED, at this revelation.

Thank you for notifying us of a potentially dangerous situation. We are sending the police immediately to charge you with racism.

What is this incendiary hate speech still on YouTube? Why can’t victims’ families sue the pants off the purveyors of these radical videos?

>he had been radicalised while watching YouTube videos

Identify the genetics that allows these islams to grow into murderers and terminate it before birth. Locate any in the wild and isolate them for life.

There is no excuse to allow killers to run free and do their killing...

Muslims should consider a less violent prophet. Say, someone like Charles Manson maybe.

Once you see them as The Manson Family with Rabies clarity ensues.

The Manchester terrorist was also supposedly reported. Is this the new narrative... blame law enforcement?

[DesertRhino]

It’s time to round them up. The 400 known isis members who returned from Syria would be a good start.

[Undecided 2012]

actually GB is about to sue the crap out of FB and utube. Oh it’s gonna be big

[JohnBovenmyer]

Yet the good Captain was willing to round up “the usual suspects.” Which would work if they were sanely defined. Alas May’s government defines the usual suspects as UKIP and EDL.

[Undecided 2012]

I’m not sure if this was the article, I didn’t read it, but I read he was on a documentary planting an ISIS flag 1 yr ago in a park on video and again via the documentary with 2 radical Imans. You tell me. Absolutely they were negligent just like Rotterdam. These idiots better get their head out of the sand.

Perhaps the worst written sentence I have ever seen.

[tennmountainman]

A Brit saw something and said something.

The Government did nothing.

It’s just BS from the British government.

[Caipirabob]

You can just forget the U.K. Yes, there are plenty of patriots amongst the working class but their elites have been taken out and bought out by muslim sympathizers and they are part of the “replace the white folk” cabal. They will do nothing to inhibit more Muslim terrorists striking out against them. In fact they'll probably arrest some of their white citizens who so much as sniff in the direction of the nearest muslim as a warning to others to not put a toe out of line with the elitist agenda.

Folks gonna arrive at the point where they just don’t bother reporting stuff cause they see just how good it will do.
