Succinctly put!

Unfortunately that would be the scenario, it would escalate from Terrorist/British to Muslim/British. Such is the effect of tit-for-tat reprisals.

I'd like to think you are correct in suggesting that millennials will be a positive force. What a pity that they couldn't turn out to vote on Brexit; maybe too busy live streaming their avocado toast or quinoa salad lunch on Facebook. They did turn out in greater numbers to vote for 'free-lunch' Corbyn .

Yep, and a number of students voted twice, once in their own homes and again in their universities, quoted from Nigel Farrage!

Donald Trump fails to address terror attack on London mosque and murdered Muslim woman

He's much quicker to express condolences when Muslims attack western nations, critics note (sub-title)

 

"Donald Trump has failed to personally acknowledge the attack on members of a mosque in London,

and the murder of a Muslim teenager in Virginia, prompting critics to attack his silence."

 

"Fifteen hours after a man drove a van into a group of Muslims near a London mosque, killing at least one and injuring 10 others, there was still no note of condolences from the President, the Washington Post posted in an editorial analysing Mr Trump’s response to terrorist attacks."
 
"He tweeted three and a half hours after the Paris attacks in November 2015, roughly 90 minutes after the San Bernardino, California attack, and fewer than 12 hours after an EgyptAir flight went missing in 2016, the editorial read."

So what is it about Trump not posting his condolences you are not happy with? He has already admitted he doesnt like muslims. So if he had sent condolences, you and all the other drum bangers would be up in arms calling him a hypocrite.

 

IMO all members of parliaments should be banned from social media anyway

 

You probably have seen the link I am about to post, so I would like to ask you what you think about this . . .

You appear awfully distressed over an english news outlet's take on an American news story.

 

Or me, for posting it. (with no commentary)

 

"So what is it about Trump not posting his condolences you are not happy with?"

 

A truly bizarre, baseless interpretation. Which exists only in your fervent mind.

Speak to the Independent, who wrote the article.

You are just making stuff up.

So, now we have reached the stage of reprisal attacks.

 

That stage was officially reached when the first plane hit the tower.

 

This the reprisal for the reprisals for the reprisals the reprisals.

What ever gives you the impression I am awfully distressed? Why on earth would I be distressed about anything? Im loving life . . .  The Blues are in number 10, the reds keep showing themselves up for what they really are, Trump is in the White house, oh and Brexit is just around the corner :D just keeps getting better each day for me. Oh and "the master race" is now fighting back.

 

My apologies for taxing your brain with what was really a very simple question, funny how you cannot stop giving your opinions but when asked for it, you decline. I cannot ask the Independent how you feel about it, that would be another waste of my time obviously hahaha 

 

Looking forward very much to the future - how about you? Oh, sorry, you wont answer that question, just swerve around it AGAIN

 

Just shows your apathy kid when you say an incident is a violent event, anything can be an incident

 

You are so transparent. Enjoy all day tomorrow on your laptop getting angry AGAIN ;)

In the context of the OP one assumes a sympathiser for white ethnic terrorism. In The Times newspaper it has just been reported that 37% of terror arrests in reporting year up to  March 2017, in the UK, were of 'ethnic whites'. Goes to show the UK and other country security agencies were spot on regards the threat to stability and security represented by white extremists; perhaps more importantly diversion of resources to focus on Islamist terror threats by these self defined "Patriots".

Very True!!...And Trump et al. are bound to take the wrong stances as  blinded by their aversion to muslim nations (but not their money of course). They  may omit to clean up their own "sala" and bypass the domestic breeds of terror and hate that would cause equivalent casualties amongst innocent compatriotes. It's time to realise that terrorism is not a matter of race ethnicity or colour but rather a global issue of hate, uneducation, frustration that a fueled on both sides of the wall!

Please clarify or give an accessible source.  I can't tell whether 'ethnic whites' includes Moslem converts.

Did not read the article, but just by using my brains: no, it does not include muslim converts.

Looking to refute - LOL I quoted from the "The Times" article in the local Oz national newspaper. Below is another example for 2016, not 2017, but you will get the picture. BTW, can't be bothered to look it up for a link, as another example there were 800+ murders by white supremacists groups (domestic terrorists) in the US in the past 30 years. Ain't a one sided terror campaign is it.

That was a different country, different organization. Or do you believe it is about an entire religion making war against the west? Come on..................

 

This is about terror organizations using religion as an excuse for their acts and recruitment. It is not about the masses that follow that particular religion.

 

Anyway, I am talking about the UK, and reprisals carried out using the same methods as have been used in previous attacks against mostly innocent people.

 

The main weapons of any terrorist organization are the acts of terror they carry out and the media. As far as the media goes, the more 'clickbait' headlines, the more dramatization of an incident, the more un-qualified opinions made by reporters, the more damage is done. On the victim's side both fear and anger are generated. On the terrorist side, the recruitment doors are fully open for the fence-sitters. 

 

The above is obviously my opinion (and experience in a different life) only, and I fully realize and appreciate other's opinions, so this isn't a dig at anyone.

 

Cheers,

C

What's all this white supremacist tosh? One angry Brit lashed out. Not justifiable but understandable. There is a certain symmetry about this don't you think?

If you want to comment, first of all read the content. The Australian  quoted from The Times who referenced HMG reported stats.

 

No one should attempt to justify murder of civilians, no matter your attempted disclaimer. Regards your last sentence, IMO white supremacists who carry out murder are 'ethnic white' terrorists.

Caucasian? Does it matter? Non Muslim is probably more relevant.

 

One angry Brit flew off the handle and drove a van into a bunch of Muslims. Unacceptable behaviour? Yes of course. Terrorist? I don't think so.
