Trump was right! Police first held 'refugee boy', 18, arrested at Dover [trunc.]
Daily Mail ^ | 16 September 2017 | Martin Robinson et al.

Posted on 09/16/2017 9:38:12 PM PDT by The people have spoken

Officers arrested an 18-year-old suspected of plotting the attack in a dramatic swoop at the port of Dover on Saturday.

The teen - who is being held at a London police station - is thought to have been a 'problematic foster child' who was allegedly arrested two weeks ago near to where the attack took place before being freed.

If true, this appears to suggest that President Donald Trump's much criticized tweet revealing the suspect was known to British law enforcement was not entirely wrong.

A headline you will not see in the American press.

Full headline: Trump was right! Police first held 'refugee boy', 18, arrested at Dover over bucket bomb TWO WEEKS AGO but let him go, say neighbours - as officers finally raid home of MBE foster couple who took him in

Odds are this isn't some troubled British teen, but rather a kid who was born in a nation whose name ends in "stan".

The self-righteous Brits may be swallowing hard after their initial negative reactions, especially when they are broadcast to the world.

So Teresa May BASHED Trump...and he was DEAD RIGHT. I think she should resign ASAP and let immigration patriot Boris Johnson take over.

London is a lost cause, all they care about is appeasing the Muslims, they could give a rats a@@ about their own citizens

another headline you won’t see anywhere: London Mayor expresses condolences to the victims of the terrorist attack, cracks down on mosques.

He’ll ‘increase police presence’ - just like home, eh, Khan?

I thought they spoke English in England?!?!?

“refugee boy” is sure a weird way to spell “Jihadist Infiltrator”.

It is published in The Daily Mail in the United Kingdom.

“By Martin Robinson, Uk Chief Reporter and Richard Spillett, Crime Correspondent and Rory Tingle and Amie Gordon and Katie French and Stewart Paterson and Joe Sheppard and Scott Campbell For Mailonline”

The people named in that list and the editor have my respect for their honesty and ethical work.

Theresa May was unavailable for comment because she’s busy trying to find her own ass with a survival grade LED flashlight (torch for you poor Brit’s) and GPS coordinates.

The DailyMail has been anti-Trump, so I wouldn’t praise them. They never run anti-Obama stories, and they had headlines today about Sheriff Clarke’s thesis being plagiarized.

Yes, I noticed that little tid bit of information, that they tried to slither in with. He was DEAD right on the money.

The chances that he’s actually a “teen” are pretty small. There are many very adult “children” among the migrants.

Is this foster “child” (aged 18) in a foster home because he is in the UK without his parents who are back HOME?

“troubled” youth. Wonder what’s in his file.

I don’t think the issue the Brits had was whether he was right or not, that was clearly going to be the case. It’s the OpSec angle of not revealing information while there’s an active investigation ongoing that is the problem.

Anything that could potentially tip off the guy being hunted (or co-conspirators) about how far along the police investigation is in identifying those involved should be kept quiet, unless cleared by those on the ground leading the hunt. You don’t take chances with stuff like this; even a small fragment of intel slipping out could mean the difference between a suspect bolting before you get to him, destroying evidence, commencing another attack or some other change in behavior that could potentially hinder the hunt.

Yes, the President was factually correct in the comment he tweeted, but there was a lack of discipline in tweeting that comment when he did.

and they think they are conservative! They are so clueless.

On top of that, they blatantly censor pro-Trump, pro-liberty, pro-Constitution comments.

I stopped commenting and eventually stopped giving them the benefit of my “clicks” altogether.
