Islamist group claims attacks on Iran International TV and Jewish sites in London
Arutz Sheva ^ | 16/4/26

An attempted attack near the London studios of Iran International, which is affiliated with the Iranian opposition, has heightened concerns over what the broadcaster says is a growing campaign of intimidation targeting its staff.

A suspicious vehicle was denied entry at the main entrance of its site on the evening of Wednesday, April 15. Shortly afterward, incendiary devices were thrown into the car park of a neighboring building just meters from its studios.

“Our security team responded immediately, and the police and fire brigade arrived shortly afterwards. We are grateful to them for their swift response," Iran International’s editorial board said in a statement.

Footage posted to social media appeared to show the aftermath of the attack.

London’s Metropolitan Police said on Thursday that three people aged 16, 19 and 21 had been arrested in connection with the incident.

Police said the case is not currently being treated as terrorism but is being investigated by Counter Terrorism Policing London.

The incident comes amid a sharp increase in threats and pressure directed at Iran International journalists and their families, particularly following the recent war involving Iran.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Starmer: You were supposed to eat us last!

Crocodile: Your friends have given me a tummy ache. I'm just nibbling on you as a form of antacid. I promise. I will eat you last, right after I have settled with the Great and Small Satans. Toodles.

Starmer: Thank you!

I’m sure the British police will be all out in their urgent mission to find the culprits and protect Britain’s Jewish people. /S

Mayor Khan says, relax. Big cities are expected to be violent.

Not to mention their never-ending battle to eradicate hate speech from the Internet, and arrest the perpetrators whenever they are non-Muslims.

True. The people who quote the Bible and other sites of “hate speech” have to be tracked down in Britain like the woman who was silently praying for and end to abortion as the police officer read her mind and knew her thoughts and thus handcuffed her and put her in jail. Thousands of dollars of legal fees and time in jail and out of jail for her. What a country.

Note below “including silent prayer.”

From Gov.UK site:
Key Aspects of the New British Abortion Clinic Laws
Safe Access Zones (Buffer Zones): 150-meter zones exist around all abortion clinics in England and Wales, as well as Scotland (200m) and Northern Ireland (100m).

Prohibited Activities: Within these zones, it is illegal to advise, persuade, inform, influence, or express opinion regarding abortion services. This covers verbal, written, or graphic methods, including silent prayer, vigils, and handing out leaflets.

Those convicted of breaking these rules face unlimited fines.

This sentence by itself shows how far gone the whole of the UK is. By the way, did you hear about Mississippi’s GDP: surpasses that of the UK.

What else do you need to see before admitting that the UK isn’t just in decline; it’s what happens when the decline settles into the new normal.

Keir Starmer trying to speak either Cockney or Scouse, to make himself “relatable” to the commoners. So parody.
