Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Death toll now four in Islamic jihad attack at UK Parliament

Mar 22, 2017 2:20 pm By Robert Spencer

And others have suffered “catastrophic injuries,” so it could continue to rise.

“FOUR people are dead – including police officer and terrorist – and 20 more injured – after killer mowed down pedestrians on Westminster Bridge before killer is shot attacking police in Parliament grounds,” by Richard Spillett, Tim Sculthorpe, Martin Robinson, Alexander Robertson and Mark Duell, MailOnline, March 22, 2017:

Four people are dead after a terrorist brought carnage to central London today, mowing down pedestrians on Westminster Bridge and attacking police with knives in the grounds of the Houses of Parliament.

At least 10 people were hit on the crowded bridge when a 4×4 drove along the pavement, knocking down pedestrians before crashing into a fence below Big Ben.

An intruder, described by a witness as ‘middle-aged and Asian’ and carrying two knives, then managed to break into the grounds of the Parliament and stabbed a police officer before he was shot and injured. The policeman has since died.

It is currently believed one attacker was involved, killing three people, including a policeman, and leaving at least 10 pedestrians and two other police officers seriously injured.

Prime Minister Theresa May was bundled into her car by a plain-clothes police officer and driven quickly from the scene as the attack unfolded. She will chair a meeting of the Government’s emergency Cobra Committee tonight.

Scotland Yard said the attack, which comes a year to the day after the terrorist atrocities in Brussels, is being treated ‘as a terrorist incident until we know otherwise’.

It is currently known:

Four people are dead, including one pedestrian and a policeman protecting Parliament.
Others on the bridge suffered ‘catastrophic injuries’. At least one of the people being treated in the palace courtyard was wheeled away on a stretcher with their face covered….

Witness Jayne Wilkinson said: ‘We were taking photos of Big Ben and we saw all the people running towards us, and then there was an Asian guy in about his 40s carrying a knife about seven or eight inches long….

        We really have to get this “virgin” thing knocked on the head. Is that not a a bad translation? Isn’t it supposed to be “grapes” or “raisins”?

        • gravenimage says

          No, that is just what Muslim apologists claim.

          The virgins are describes as “modest” and other epithets that would not apply to dried fruit.

    Not to worry, they’re only islamophobic chavs. Sharia May, one of the architects and enablers of all this, got away scot free, and that’s what matters, right ? Right ?

      This is what the left has brought to Britain. Cameron, May, Blair are just as responsible as the perp. One wonders if May had been a victim of the attack if that would have changed any of those fools minds on islam.

    We in India are not surprised. .unless you call spade a spade and evict these Muslims and totally ban their entry into Europe …it is a matter of time that they will take control of Europe and establish sharia. Get ready to pay jijiya. ..good luck!

      Yup. People in India, Israel, and Burma – for example – know all too well what it’s like to live with these savages. The west is going learn though. 🙁

    Brits are fully islamised- attacker was “Asian looking”. All those years of BBC/Guardian lies still hold sway.
    What a pity Theresa May was not knifed to death- the lying MP’s might have taken notice. But the dead are merely ‘ordinary members of the sheeple [sorry, ‘public’], so they count for nothing but smarmy condolences & crocodile tears.
    Next up- “nothing to do with the religion of Peace”, then “mental problems”. Followed By ‘unemployment, disadvantage, POVERTY, Islamophobia.’

    ISLAMONAUSEA.

    When will the West wake instead of sleeping in the false morality of treating the killers as equal and just justas good as anybody else. West can’t see evil and can’t call evil and evil and continue to allow killers to come to their lands and so terror attacks like that of today will continue happening and the West will be for ever looking for motives! Haven’t seen more stupid people throughout history than our leaders of today. God save us from our leaders and intellectuals!1

    That murderous jihad attack in London further reveals the violent and deadly nature of Islam. Many times the jihadist members of different Islamic terror entities, as those of ISIS, have gathered together and chanted the words “We love death, they love life.” Likewise those jihadist/Muslims don’t stop with those awful words; they carry through with jihad suicide/homicide attacks. Any sane person would ask “Why do those jihad –minded Muslims have such a mindset of murderous madness?” The answer is that they obtain the way of thinking and believing from the “holy book” of Islam, the Koran. As some people call it the Qu ‘ran. For example the Koran in Sura 9:111 instructs “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Therefore it may be conclude that Islam is actually a death cult. In great and wonderful contrast to the death cult which is Islam there is Christianity which is centered on Jesus and His teachings. For Jesus did not teach killing and death but taught and gave life, a good peaceful well lived life and more. For example Jesus declared “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10. [K.J.V.]

    • J_not_a says

      Mar 22, 2017 at 4:05 pm

      I refer to that thing as the “holey cowran”. That hate-filled piece of trash that has inspired so much misery and death it doesn’t deserve one shred of respect or reverence.

  9. Adrian says

    Mar 22, 2017 at 2:36 pm

    Of course this is all Trump’s fault! He should have never said those nasty things about migrants from terror countries!

    Perp looks like a “good” muslim to me, who believes Allah is always watching:

    Sura 2: 216: “Fighting has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not.”

  10. Walter Sieruk says

    Mar 22, 2017 at 2:36 pm

    This heinous and murderous jihad attack in London reflects s the teaching of the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran. As, for example, the Quran instructs in Sura 9:111. “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Nevertheless, the apologists for Islam still have the gall to make the claim the “Islam is a peaceful religion.” What an outlandishly false claim to make

    The BBC are telling me the old trope from their mates-their well-rehearsed trope-that ” the terrorists will never win!.
    But they already have.
    When I have to come to your website to find out what actually happened-as opposed for waiting for the BBC to concoct their version that will obviously redact ANY possible link to Islam-that the Muslims have clearly won the propaganda war, much as the likes of the IRA did.
    Thanks for giving us the truth-why do we pay for the BBC to cover the arses of their Muslim mates?

      “The BBC are telling me the old trope from their mates-their well-rehearsed trope-that ” the terrorists will never win!”

      Because, I guess, how can the terrorists win if the “right”-“thinking” people refuse to admit there’s even a war going on?

    Mar 22, 2017 at 3:09 pm

    OK, here is what will happen:
    ======================

    Sharia May will meet with the mayor of London, Mohamed Sadiq Khan. She will in all likelihood wear her standard attire which she always dons when meeting Muslims, a hijab, niqab or whatever that headscarf is called. Maybe not this time, or it will be edited out.

    Next: A committee will be formed and some very tough questions will be asked! The head of security for the Commons will be reassigned somewhere else. House of Lords? Concerns will be expressed that this could lead voters to opt for populism, but don’t worry, there’s no chance for that. We haven’t got anything populist left in Britain – phew! Saved from that one.

    Next: The committee will find that it had nothing to do with Islam. Any suggestion otherwise will only come from racists, imperialists or Nazis.

    Also, after Brexit (should it **really** happen) we will be safe from such incidents since all immigration of Christians from eastern Europe will be banned. Muslim immigration will of course continue, The Commonwealth, family (re)unions, etc. Mustn’t give up on our values, such as diversity, multiculturalism and all that.

    And finally, May, Sharia May actually, will be relieved that Robert Spencer was banned from entry into the UK, who knows what his presence would have caused.

    Now, what to watch on BBC, ITV and others? A rerun of Dr. Shivago? Battle of Britain? Fawlty Towers? Or the latest costume drama? Or a political analysis of how Trump is causing damage to the values of the western world…

    There’s something for everyone, don’t you know?

    • DFD says

      Mar 22, 2017 at 3:50 pm

      PS:

      I forgot, there will be praise for our security services. A comparison with Nice and Berlin will show prove doubt that we are much, much safer… Unless we too will have axe attacks, stabbings, machete slashings, people pushed under a tube train. No, not in London.

    Mar 22, 2017 at 4:07 pm

    Does anyone still think that a police investigation followed by a report and glad words from the relevant Minister or Prime Minister will be a suitable response for yet another Islamic Outrage? Come on guys wake up and smell the coffee. The government is not interested in solutions, the police, military and emergency services no longer protect the citizenry, but serve the elites, only. At the very least some form of violence must be metered out to the local Islamic community, to demonstrate, in language they will understand, that this is as far as they can go without having death and injury showered down upon their own heads.
    At the time of writing, four people are dead, one justifiably so, one police man who died protecting parliament, not the populous, parliament, and two innocents. There are also at least 20 seriously injured people some of which may very well succumb to their injuries in the coming hours or days. Not to mention those who will be psychologically scarred for life as a result of witnessing such a heinous act.
    Burn their mosques, rip the vale from their faces, intimidate and manhandle there elderly, attack and kill there fighting age men. Evict their children from our schools. Time to give them the war they so desperately want. Hurt them, keep hurting them then hurt them some more, until finally they flee back to the bedevilled lands they crawled out of. Then, and only then will society be safe. Then and only then will the elites reap what they have sown.

    Sorry for 3 more people who were murdered with no due process…if a government was doing its job for the people, it would make a list of grievances against the koran similar to the list of grievances made by one of my relatives, John Hancock, and his friends did against the British government when they declared their independence. If they did this they could prove the koran itself espouses murder with no due process, just like what happened to these people murdered today in London. The koran does this by making a lot of perverse statements that people are supposed to reject…yet they then try to hold people accountable and threaten them with death if they dont participate with these false claims. A few examples of the perverse statements in the koran is the arrogance displayed around the murder of a polytheist baby, which the koran supports. The ugly exaggerations against Jews. Glorifying vague testimony made 600 years later around the purported murder of Jesus over detailed accounts made around the time of the incident. Using fables about Moses as evidence you can kill your kid if they are not islamic enough. Concealing all of the quotes of Jesus, which falsely lowers His status. Making parables that are obviously of a lesser quality than those of Jesus, which only proves that Jesus is smarter and a better teacher than the author of the koran. All of these rotten achievements show there is no talent in the koran. Therefore, the koran itself produces evidence it should be rejected by people. There insistence on being able to kill those who justly and rightfully refuse to respect its deviant statements is a violation of the due process promised to people in the 14th amendment in the constitution. For this reason, any government has the right and duty to terminate this murderous relationship.

    Death toll now four in Islamic jihad attack at UK Parliament
    ……………………..

    Three were victims–the fourth is the Jihadist himself.

    The toll would, of course, been much higher if the murderous Mohammedan had had his way, and likely would have included Members of Parliament.

    Now, now, let’s withhold judgment. He was “Asian”, so could have been Hindu, Buddhist, Christian, or secular. We don’t know he was Islamic. Maybe just stressed out after a particularly taxing Yoga session.

    Mar 22, 2017 at 11:42 pm

    Taking religion so seriously as to, in a present day city, emulate the behavior of a primitive cave dwelling “prophet”, even to the point of actual murder, rape, and robbery is no longer hard to imagine. Thank you London for putting that on TV. Those 3 shots were the best part. When a dog gets rabies, you must euthanize it.

    Mar 23, 2017 at 5:33 am

    “Four people are dead” is misleading.
    Three people are dead due to the Jihadi attack.
    The Jihadi is also dead, thank God! But he should not be counted with the people.
