webfact Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 UK: 'We need to stand together' says Cameron after Brussels bloodshed"We need to stand together against these appalling terrorists and make sure they can never win"LONDON: -- The Belgian flag flew at half-mast in Downing Street on Tuesday as Britain showed solidarity with its European partner following the deadly Brussels terrorist attacks.UK Prime Minister David Cameron chaired a COBRA crisis response meeting and stepped up security at home, not least in London whose own transport network is no stranger to terrorism.“These were attacks in Belgium,” Cameron said.“They could just as well have been attacks in Britain or in France or Germany or elsewhere in Europe and we need to stand together against these appalling terrorists and make sure they can never win.”“We obviously have still got information coming in and if there is information that implies there is a direct threat to the United Kingdom, we would raise the security threat even higher than it is today,” Cameron said.British police said they would step up their presence at key locations nationwide, including transport hubs.Mark Rowley, Britain’s most senior counter-terrorism officer, said the move was precautionary and did not result from any specific intelligence.“In London specifically, the Metropolitan Police Service has mobilised additional officers, who will carry out highly visible patrols at key locations around the capital including the transport network,” Rowley said in a statement.Islamist militant attacks in London in 2005 killed 52 people. -- (c) Copyright Euronews 2016-03-23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassman Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Does this mean Cameron will stop bombing abandoned IS position's in Syria, or will he insist that we support "moderate Syrian rebels" I expect the EU will be real pissed off with the terrorism coming from ISIS, I would imagine they will even add another dozen unarmed observation planes to the airspace. Europe really...get some gonads please, your endangering the western world with your incredible weakness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rancid Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Initially the ME was an Arab/Israel issue, one I believe should have been left to them to sort out as it was their problem. The US then stuck its nose in and then PLO/terrorism started to target the West as well, lets include wisely stirring up and arming/training Islamists in Afghanistan with that as well. Then we have the Western invasion/genocide in Iraq that really got things going, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Syria soon followed. Now there are vast amounts of angry Islamists migrating into Europe, can anyone possible imagine that is going to lead to future peace and harmony? The West including Europe has essentially been deliberately at war with sections of the Islamic ME for decades. Why then is anyone surprised when bombs start going off in retaliation? Why has radical Saudi fundamentalist Islam been allowed to spread so vastly with their oil money? What, no one imagined that would lead to fermenting Islamic whackos? So why when Europe gets blow-back do all the politicians stand up and pretend to be shocked? What do they promise? They then promise us all an Orwellian Police State to "protect us" from the very same Terrorists they themselves created. Just as well I'm not a conspiracy theorist, or you might imagine its all deliberate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can either enjoy the system of personal freedoms enjoyed in many Western countries for hundreds of years OR you can have multiculturalism and the police state mechanisms required to enforce "tolerance" and "unity." Europe's politicians have already decided for their subjects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as well I'm not a conspiracy theorist, or you might imagine its all deliberate. Rancid, i can see you being heavily criticised for the above post. However, the truth can hurt, and similar to the politicians, a lot will be pretend to be shocked by backlash that we are starting to see. It is a situation, IMO, that has been transparent in coming, been discussed endlessly in government meetings in all European countries without any preventative measures put in place to stop or even slow down the inevitable. There cannot be any true justice in this world anymore as far too much protection is given to these people in the laws and regulations we have made for the society that we live in. Unless the departments of the different governments have their hands untied, and are able to carry out surgical strikes, follow the money trails and nip these terrorist attacks in the bud, nothing will change, we will all sit and spectate as our worlds change in front of our eyes. This however, is a thin line to follow lest we become the same as those we are defending against......................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiKneeTim Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Says the man who has a Metropolitan Police detail guarding him, and secure bolt holes in which to hide. So yeah, I don't mind standing together in your secure little world (that I'm helping to pay for). ISIS didn't exist until western governments got rid of Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi, who kept them at bay, but since we liberated Iraq and Libya those countries have become unstable and a breeding ground for fundamentalists. But without a few wars how could the oil companies and armaments industry have made huge profits! More Iraqis have died since liberation than under Saddam Hussein, and lets not forget the many servicemen sacrificed for the sake of corporate greed.

Ghostnigel Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 "We need to stand together" says David Cameron....He won't be standing together with the people...he will be hiding behind armed guards, and bullet proof windows!! easy to say Cameron, but its you politicians who let them into Europe in the first place, and then leave ordinary people to get blown to bits by them. I bet we won't be seeing Cameron walking the streets, in Sharia held areas, (only with sharp-shooters up on every frickin' roof-top). So another 30 odd innocent lives have been taken, and we cannot say a word, for fear of being called a bigot or racist....nice one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonmarleesco Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 It would help considerably if the media didn't give terrorist organisations the sort of publicity they crave. The headline, 'Islamic State brings terror to Brussels', is one example that could have been more appropriately worded along the lines of, 'Muslim Fanatics Import Their Brand of Lunacy to Brussels'.
