  • Please read the OP again, it states the man had a fake suicide vest, if that is not terrorism what is?

    https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-50610215   If even the BBC can't avoid calling it a terrorist incident, that's a fairly good indication that the evidence is strong.

    Awesome response by those members of the public who tackled this attacker.   Ordinary people doing something beyond extraordinary.

There are 3 religions that believe in one God

the Jews,they invented him ,they are still waiting for the Prophet ,very rarely do we see any terrorist acts

Christians they have Jesus who preached peace and goodwill to your fellow man ,again not a great deal of terrorist acts

 

Muslim they have Muhammed ,a divorced man who became a warlord ,killed all in his path ,preached that there must be complete submision to the faith and married a 6 year old girl.

well you read what their faith does around the world .and so many of its followers ,seem to be not very good people .

‘the jews, they invented him [God]’.

 

Erm, no they didn’t.

People like yourself are as bad as this guy, you try to demonize whole communities to cause more violence, just two sides of the same coin. 

Me ? Try ? No . Certain 'communities' as you say, are doing a grand job of 'demonizing' themselves...

unfortunately...

<SNIP> The Guardian story is just that ... and fastest growing does not mean greatest existing.

How about accepting I was providing you and others, if they are interested, factual reporting on the current far right terror threat in the U.K., rather than trying to be argumentative for no reason. Some quotes from the linked report I provided which indicate the level of resourcing that must be applied by HMG security forces rather than on Islamist terrorism.

 

A quarter of all terrorism arrests in the past year were linked to far-right violence.

 

A third of all terror plots to kill in Britain since 2017 – seven out of 22 – were by those driven by extreme-right causes.

three quarters of arrests were linked to …?

two thirds - 15 out of 22 - were by those driven by …?

Which would appear to be a direct correlation to the rising tide of Islamist extremism.  Every action has a reaction.  Whatever the rights and wrongs, it's to be expected.

The most encouraging thing to come out of this is how people reacted, they didn't all just run away in fear. I've always thought a kind of mob zombie response to these kind of incidents would do a lot to discourage them. Obviously, the police killed him cos he was wearing a (fake) suicide vest. What do you expect them to do, wait for the bomb disposal squad to arrive.

Seems the public in this instance ignored the 'Run, Hide, Tell' advice given out by the authorities and actually fought back to good effect.

Successive governments been allowing Muslims into the UK since the 1960s.

Geez .... This sounds even worse than things that happen in Thailand!

If the man was already dead, why shoot dead man?

 

I was wondering if my English is too bad to understand or the text is stupid.

Good point.  If I was in this situation the last thing I would be thinking about is 'run, hide, tell' or the 'see it, say it, sorted' nonsense.  Due to my life's experience I'm more likely not to run anywhere and stay put.  Once you start moving in a terrorist situation you might be moving towards another latent threat.  I like to think about my options and I'm very unlikely to follow the herd.  

I always wonder why ex-soldiers don't come together to clean up the streets from scum ... they are supposed to be experts... they have knowledge in weapons & tactics ...

Yes, funded by oil sheikhs, Saudi and Qatari.  Old friends/associates of the British Establishment.

It was up to 1937 when anyone could legally own a gun,then the police stated people didn,t need them as the police were there to protect them,this then led to licensing,and led to a blanket ban on handguns,except section 5 pistols (which any self respecting drug dealer would turn his nose up at )

Now that's what bravery looks like.  Not killing unarmed people to try and buy your way into a fairytale heaven.

Nor surprised a Polish bloke was having a go at this jihadist Muslim murderer, they don't put up with people like him or the beliefs he follows, hence Poland never suffered from an attack by Islamic terrorists. If it was not for the Polish hussars arriving at Vienna on Sept 12th 1683 and thrashing the Ottoman army Islam would have been a problem for Europe much earlier. Great nation Poland.

There's a fair few living on the street and fair few more in prison.

Headlines often omit articles, such brevity makes them more striking and lures the reader.

may well be instances of reaction to Islamist terrorism. However, does not excuse extreme right wing activity such as planning acts of violence

I see it was a Pole armed with a narwhal tusk who took on the terrorist. Thank you my EU brother.
