“Two British counter-terrorism sources told CNN that the arrest was part of a drive by British police and the MI5 intelligence agency to take known Islamist extremists off the streets by going after them for crimes unrelated to terrorism. That drive was initiated two years previously.”
Doesn’t sound like an “in-it-to-win-it” strategy.
They bring a knife and “we” bring a court order on an unrelated charge that eventually gets dismissed.

Looks like they may be ceramic knives.

ceramic = i.e. would not show up in a metal detector.

PINK KNIVES? That probably didn’t go over very well with the Profit when they joined him in down there.

“ceramic = i.e. would not show up in a metal detector.”
I suspect they’re not that easy to get through...or they likely wouldn’t sell them. They probably have metal particles mixed in so that they lay out their shape in luggage scanners...but not sure whether they trip an old-style metal detector.
Great knives too - they don’t know how to go dull.

“Police have released images of three pink ceramic kitchen knives found on or near the assailants.”
To: BenLurkin
The knives, though pointed and sharp, look to be porous *perhaps stone, pink stone). Additional uses for duct tape - no longer just used to repair upholstery. Aliens?

Well, it sure looks like having a mooselimb mayor doesn't "protect" Londoners from terrorist attacks, Actually, it looks like it attracts them!
Note to all snowflakes: appeasement doesn't work!

No worries. I just skimmed it too. Sort of surprised that UK hasn't restricted knife lengths yet.

Sounds like Giuliano’s anti-crime policy.

Weve been working round the clock to understand what these men did in the lead-up to the attack but we need to know more about these unusual knives. Where have they come from? Where might the attackers have bought them from? the Mets counter-terrorism command chief Dean Haydon said... First flight of insight...
Amazon...
Wallmart...
Bed Bath and beyond (or the Brit equivalent)
Dollar Store (or the Brit equivalent)
Moving right along...

Great knives too - they dont know how to go dull. They do, however, evidently easily chip under normal killer koranimal use...

Outlaw all kitchen utensils?
It's bad enough that, rather than kill them on the spot, we have literally spent tens of trillions$ restructuring our daily lives, modifying travel terminals of every kind, surrounding our outdoor beautiful public monuments with hideous "protective" fences, humiliating hundreds of millions of our traveling citizens, and sacrificing random citizens to gruesome deaths, someone, somewhere chose rather all that to a blanket prohibition of entry into our country of all Killer Koranimals and their enablers and sympathizers.
Because "We are better than that." *
WTF???
* One of the three dumbest, mindless, ineffectual, stupid, foolish gratuitous, senseless,. silly, thoughtless, unmindful, asinine, platitudes ever created by defective human minds.
