A Second Knife Attack on Friday, This One In the Netherlands
Townhall ^ | 11/29/2019 | Bronson Stocking

Dutch police say three children were stabbed during an attack in The Hague on Friday, the Daily Mirror is reporting. Authorities are still looking for the suspect. 

(Via the Daily Mirror)

At 9.52pm, the latest from police is that all three of the victims were minors and officers are in contact with their families.

And Dutch news site De Telegraaf reports the knife attacker is still a fugitive.

“We are at this moment searching for a suspect, no one has been arrested yet,” police spokeswoman Marije Kuiper told reporters at 10 p.m.

Kuiper said police did not yet have a description of the suspect, but she said an initial police statement that he was a man in his 40s of North African descent had been wrong.

“At this moment all scenarios are still open,” she said.

The attack comes on the heels of another stabbing attack on the London Bridge earlier in the day. In the London attack, police have described the attack that has so far left two people dead as a "terrorist incident." Three others were injured and the suspect was killed at the scene. Metropolitan Police say a fake device that looked like a suicide vest was strapped to the attacker's body. 

It is not clear whether the two incidents on Friday are related.

The Hague police just confirms that 3 people have been stabbed in the Grote Marktstraat in the city center. Witnesses are asked to contact the police with information or footage about the stabbing. #TheHague pic.twitter.com/ysUfdji46B— Redactie District8 (@RedactieD8) November 29, 2019

Yep, we have to search really deep into the lives of the knifesmen, to see if we can discern any possible motive. These attacks seem to come out of nowhere, shocking us all as to who would do such a thing, and why.

Part of the international islamic plan to take over the world. Saturate an area and then intimidate and force non-believers out. Now underway in London via use of driving into crowds, acid tossing, cop killings and stabbings.

People have talked of “Londonistan”. Many places in Europe seem to have critical masses of Muslims nowadays.

Greta Thunberg is in more danger in her home country of Sweden from Muslim migrants, thsn she is from global warming. Which is the greater existential threat?

Narwhale tusk are now prohibited weapons.

FYI, the previous thread never stated that the person with the narwhale tusk applied the tusk to the actor...only menaced.

For the record, Narwhales are the ‘unicorns’ of the Arctic Ocean area, and the ‘teeth’ (tusks) come only from the males.

The oddity in this story is that this was all that was required...a five-foot long tusk, with a bit of courage, and the menacing threat was put down.

No doubt just a lone wolf, no rush to judge........unless it was a white european guy then it will be time to condemn every white guy and toxic masculinity.

And the guy who fought of the first London Bridge attack got supervised by the police because conservatives contacted him.

Liberals see conservatives as a greater threat than Muslim terrorists murdering people. That demonstrates how much they hate us.

Oh no!

It is perfectly proper to use a negative stereo type in reference to men as long as the race of the man is white or unknown.

However should the race of the man become known at a later time and the man is a protected minority the article must be scrubbed of the negative stereotype.

Years ago on another conservative web site I used to correspond with a woman who lived in Tel Aviv. She said every Friday, all over Israel Friday is a day for Israelis to be especially careful around four in the afternoon. She said that's when the “Stabbing Hour’’ happens. At three the Muslims go to the mosque and the imam's get them all whipped up and at four they go out and start stabbing Israelis. It's so common place it never gets reported on Western news shows.
