To speak about “tolerance” with four dead at the hands of an Islamic jihadist in London is to signal that it will be business as usual in Theresa May’s Britain: nothing will be done to confront the ideology that incites its adherents to violence and hatred. This is clear because “tolerance” is never asked of Islamic supremacists who take to the streets of London to preach the ultimate victory of Sharia; the only people ever accused of “intolerance” are those who speak honestly about the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat.
“toleration of the unacceptable leads to the last round-up” — Bob Dylan
“Westminster attack: four confirmed dead including police officer and attacker – live,” by Andrew Sparrow and Alexandra Topping, Guardian, March 22, 2017:
Home Secretary Amber Rudd has called the attack on “our shared values”, but said they would never be destroyed.
Rudd has been in Lahore in Pakistan, but is currently making her way back to London.
She said:
We do not yet know the full impact of this terrible incident. But I know that the whole country will be thinking and praying for those who are affected as I am. I want to thank the emergency services for the quick response and pay tribute to their bravery their courage and their professionalism.
I’ve been briefed by the Met Police and by the security services and the security minister has also been updated. This is an ongoing incident and the government will continue to be updated. The Prime Minister will chair Cobra today.
The Government’s top priority is the security of the people and I urge everyone to remain calm but to be vigilant and if they see anything they are concerned about they should report it to the police. We have the best police, the best security services in the world and we must make sure that we let them get on with doing their job.
The British people will be united in working together to defeat those who would harm our shared values. Values of democracy, tolerance and the rule of law. Values symbolised by the Houses of Parliament. Values that will never be destroyed.

Most laughable lie in the whole sack of garbage she spewed.
I believe she lifted entire phrases from Obama & Clinton. That, or somewhere there must exist an outline for a “What to say after Radical Islamic Terror attack” speech, that is used by all lefty leaders.
(Our thoughts and prayers, shared values, ongoing investigation, etc.)
dumbledoresarmy says
You said – “…somewhere there must exist an outline for a “What to say after Radical Islamic Terror attack” speech,..”.
If only we had a seriously-gutsy non-dhimmi scriptwriter and film team to create a satirical skit – suitable for uploading to youtube – covering just that topic, in the best ‘Yes, Minister’ or “Yes, Prime Minister” style.
Or a different sort of skit – the blackest of black comedy – maybe an animation, in the style of ‘The Simpsons’; in which you have 1/ jihadi attack (explosions, or car + knife, or rampage with guns a la Bataclan), with bodies everywhere and allahu-akbaring thug or thugs; then 2/ the politicians and pundits on TV solemnly burbling all the empty nothings with which we have become so dismally familiar and then, 3/ (this is where the black comedy comes in) a bunch of Islamosavvy Infidels listening to the burbling …and playing a game of ‘buzzword bingo’.

“Buzzword Bingo” – definitely a thread winner.

The Confessions says
Absolutely. It’s just garbage listening to this rhetoric. She speaks in an alternate universe, of a Utopia of shared values, diversity and never-ending fluffy clouds where all religions are the same. People are deservedly fed up with this blind, nonchalant, destructive relativist mush.

Mirren10 says
”She speaks in an alternate universe …”
She speaks as one who has top security 24/7, just like the bitch Sharia May who was whisked away from the scene, surrounded by bodyguards.
The people who were **murdered** were **ordinary working people and police officers.**
Nothing will change. It might have if May and the MP’s had suffered a little bloodletting. But now their security will be ramped up even more, and it will be left to the ‘rest of us’ to demonstrate our ”shared values of tolerance” by putting our lives on the line every time we go out.
dsinc says
Indeed, I wondered what Teresa May was thinking as she was “whisked away”
The Confessions says
So true and sadly so.
Wellington says
“Nothing will change.”
So true, Mirren. So sad. So useless. So stupid. So utterly indefensible.
The exculpation of the belief system which will destroy Western Civilization if allowed to (and it is certainly being allowed to at present) will continue as long as the West produces nothing more than nothings like May, Merkel, Trudeau, Obama, Pope Francis, etc.
Time for Churchills and Lincolns. Way overdue. My God, what a first-class fool May is. She is so low she is beneath contempt. Imagine what Churchill would think of her were the Great Man still around.
Shmooviyet says
Bravo, @Mirren10 and @Wellington.

Karen says
Such good points you’ve made here; the people who try to shame us into turning a blind eye to the Islamist in the name of tolerance are behind gated communities and/or have government protection.
I often see Ms. May wearing a Hijab. She always looks a bit proud of her submission to Sharia.
Westman says
Tolerance is not a value – it is a form of inaction; if anything, it is calculated weakness.
Some Englishmen understood that too much tolerance is not good: “There is, however, a limit at which forbearance ceases to be a virtue.” – Edmund Burke, and, “Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing” – John Stuart Mill.
“Moderate” muslims and their organizations will give great orations on the illegitimacy of radical Islamic Jihad violence, yet, do very little to stop it while it festers in their neighborhood and Masjid. If PM May is relying on the muslim community to stop the increasing Islamic violence, she will be sorely disappointed.
The potential jihadists see only weakness.
Mysterex says
Yes, it seems that our forebears had a great deal more sense than many today.
My favourite Burke quote, which relates very well to Islam and Muslims, is:
“The effect of liberty to individuals is that they may do what they please; we ought to see what it will please them to do, before we risk congratulations which may be soon turned into complaints.”
Karen says
I refuse to tolerate the intolerance of Islamists and jihadists, and their willing fools.

More hot air from the British Home Office.
In Shakespeare’s phrase, “all noise and fury, signifying nothing….”
Nothing, that is, apart from how completely useless the British Home Office is in the face of jihad that is.

Actually, Voytek, as bad as this is now, voting for Labour–and the truly egregious Jeremy Corbyn–would have been even worse re enabling Jihad.

Scapegoat says
Sorry Voytek, but that’s rubbish. Nobody voted for this. No party was any different. They are all taking the same line on this issue. Writing to an MP is like self harm because you would be added to a watch list and the system waits for any opportunity to stitch you up.
There is no UK wide party promising change that has the means to fund sufficient candidates to win a general election. Even if there was, we would be hamstrung by Human Rights legislation. It is going to require implementation of a state of emergency or martial law to get around the courts. Ask Trump
davej says
“united to defeat those who would harm our values” should include defeating those who allowed this situation to exist in the first place.
Parliament is very well guarded – demonstrating that no amount of police on the defense will be effective. The only measure that will work is to make the ideology that inspires the attacks illegal and deport all who continue to preach or support it.
Anything else is just putting fingers in a rapidly leaking dike.
The first step should be to remove the bar against people like Robert and Pamela who actually know something about the threat you are confronting.

Rufolino says
Apart from that, nothing can stop the logic of demographics. Europeans will be out-bred by Islamic immigrants.
In 50 years W.Europe will be Eurabia without a shot being needed in jihad -and Islam knows it.
Eastern Europe will have to erect another fence: to protect themselves from the flood of Christians trying to get out of Germany and France.

What did I say here https://www.jihadwatch.org/2017/03/death-toll-now-four-in-islamic-jihad-attack-at-uk-parliament/comment-page-1#comment-1637081 ??
Exactly that, “our values” and a committee…
=================================
I repost something I posted a few days ago, but I think it really fits, so here I go:
We should practice sharia in Europe to show our guests that we are truly multicultural and really, really respect them and embrace diversity!
No, I am not mad!
==============
I just began to think, so, here is my proposal, sharia, applicable for Muslims only, so they wont be offended any more.
– Sexual activity outside marriage – :
None-rape: 100 lashes
Rape: Stoning to death (this can be done by building companies, they are professionals when it comes to handling stones, and they have a large supply of bricks. And most of these will be reusable, thus cutting costs)
– Alcohol consumption – :
100 blows with a stick
– Theft – :
Amputations. So as not to overload the medical system, this can be done by, preferably unemployed, butchers. This will reduce the rate of unemployment in their profession dramatically, and it will be done more hygienically than in a Muslim country – a win-win for all!
– Blasphemy – :
Any Muslim found or learned about, who is not of the right Islamic persuasion, will be beheaded.
– Hate speech – :
Anyone found in possession of, or attempting to distribute in whatever form, a scripture or text pretending or proclaiming to be of any form of religious nature, but inciting violence in whatever form, will be burned alive. An allowance can be made of the culprit prefers to be beaten to death.
– Treasonous acts – :
Either hanging from a building crane or firing squad.
I think that would be a good start to show that we are genuine about multi-cultural diversity and acceptance of their customs. Good idea, no?
Additional: What is the Sharia for “death driving”? Suggestion: Put ’em under a steam roller.

Unfortunately, there is no penalty under Shari’ah for slaughtering Infidels in violent Jihad. Instead, this is lauded.

My guess is that “those who harm our shared values” refers to Anti-JIhadists, and not to murderous Muslims.
MacUalraig says
This is what Brits wanted, isn’t it? Hopefully none of the victims of this jihad violence today weren’t patriots that didn’t vote for any of the stinking, rotten and traitorous bastards that imported the Muslanimal scum.

The dead are Britons. The Jihad attacker was not discriminating in his choice of victims.
Roderick MacUalraig says
I understand. I just wouldn’t feel bad for those that felt that allowing all the Muzz in is a great idea, or supported it in any way.

I’m shocked this didn’t happen sooner. There will be bigger ones than this too, this was only one attacker.
Steve Klein says
Maybe if the UK Home Secretary and Prime Minister broaden their ban on counter-jihad activists to include others in addition to Spencer, Geller, Savage, etc., they will stem this violence? ):

Michael says
lol … it is laughable, while it’s tragic, this talk of shared values. perhaps one day, more will see there are no shared values — are there any at all? I can’t think of any — between Muslims and non-Muslims. They abhor work; this is what the dhimmis are for. They abhor art, music, actual love for life, for each other, for animals. There are no shared values, and will never be.
It seems if Britain were simply to denounce democracy, and install Sharia law, it might make unnecessary a lot of deaths. On the other hand, the number of deaths under Sharia law would be massive, as there appear to be a large number of non-Muslims there. But then all the killing and brutality would be legal, per the Muslims.
Quite astounding, all of it. The ignorance of the ‘regular people’ is astounding. But it’s been this way for a long time. People diverted by entertainment, sports, gossip, taxes, work. Too busy, it seems, to pay any attention at all, a blind trust of ‘authority.’
I can only hope that in America, things will be different. Because what’s in England, is coming here in greater measure, too.
I do take solace in the fact that America is well armed. I only hope that those who can carry, do. And when and if the time comes to shoot back, we shoot back. In great numbers. Because Islam only responds to force. It is their way.

Very true. They are obsessed and mendacious, they will never give up and they will never be happy, even if they succeed in destroying us.

Stan Lee says
That flowery speech and a dollar will get you a cup of coffee, Ms. Rudd! She’s another lady in government who speaks of “shared values.” Sorry, Ms. Rudd, your shared values mirage doesn’t exist with the Muslims. For your information, those values you mention are a figment of your imagination, the Muslims in your homeland pay that stuff “lip service” only. That’s just to relax the authorities while Muslims go about their own Muslim business.
They brought their own law with them to Britain, they scoff at the laws of “the Crusaders” and they mean you when they mention “Crusader.” They’re still at war, but you’ll probably contradict that by stating “not all of them.” Well then, since they number about 1.4 Billion, how about just 25% of them? The rest do support their brethren by being quiet about it while they enable them with donations and agreement.
These people respect only power, their men folk are encouraged to treat Muslim women better than they would non-Muslim types, but still the treatment includes beatings to drive home the fact of their primitive male superiority over females.
Your police officers need to each carry an automatic with at least ten rounds, plus extra clips for each weapon. Today, it was knives and cars. It’s been trucks in France and Germany, burned cars, and rapes. I do know that British girls have been “hooked” on drugs by those enterprising Muslims, which has turned those poor little girls into slaves for narcotics. “Shared values?” Get real!

As an Indian, I share your pain with all my heart. We Indians had 700 years of terrorism from them.

Pandit Technology says
Actually my friend, think about it carefully, the Europeans did conoloize India, but at that time India was already BLEEDING becuase of Muslim Rule. In fact Eurpoean Rule, British, French etc, helped to unravel the Muslim Kingdoms of India. If not for Eurpeans, India would still be ruled by numerous Tribal Muslim Nawaabs and Kings.We have a lot to thank Europeans for, including Lady Annne Besant, who introduced Indians to Democracy. Even Hinduism got reformed, when it came in contact with Christian Missonsires. It was able to get rid of the creeping nonsense of Sati etc. Resilency of Hindusin or Christannity is becuase it changes with times, and like an ancient Greek Philosopher, only constant is Change.Islam is very rigid and fragile, did not change and this is the reason that it is now a curse on humanity.Do a bit of reseach and critical thinking. Hindus were again empowered by the European thoughts and ideas, as earlier it was the Muslim rule and age of darkness. And before you think of me as a sort of “Uncle Tom” for Eurpeans. let’s get this straight India was a great ancient civilization, then got ruled by dark forces of Muslim invadors and finally, it’s back on track for it’s rightful place.

The future with AI, Automation and Robotics means less “jobs”…and you just have to look around….every where, middle class is getting decimated, as Jobs are dissapaering faster…so what is the nonsense of these super intelligent leaders of free Eurpean countries wanting immigrations to make up for the less birth rates of natives? I was trying to find answer …and voila it hit me…( not meditating under a banyan tree, sorry…just drinking beer ),…these politicians are securing their JOBS by getting more immigrants. so that they keep getting VOTES by these Immigratns and their offsprings…..but after 1-2 generations these useful idiots for Islam (aka current set of Libreal politicians), would be jobless…a perfect eg is the London Mayor…Khan..

Sitting duck values. They say here in Sweden that circa 2034 there will be a muslim majority in Sweden. Already males are majority over women in fertile ages and it is growing. Due to influx from arab countries of muslim men. Historic since women used to be majority historically.
How will that impact Europe?
The same destiny for all of Europe? Swedish government want to spread it to countries with none or few muslims.
EU seems not to care. A few worries when a terrorist attack occurs, otherwise business as usual.
The same mentality almost all over Europe.
Still it seems as if UK has reacted. Believe in the future of Britain. Bad leadership since ending of WW2 causing nowadays troubles.

western liberals and globalists have made very clear that they will NOT save western civilization. in fact, they are doing everything they can to commit civilizational suicide in Europe and America.
a sane, rational immigration policy would be based on what is good for citizens, not based on disproven liberal canards about “tolerance”.
the current insane politcs of the left would be akin to Churchill inviting nazis to immigrate to London during the blitz, or America inviting communists to immigrate during the Cold War.
Europe as we know it is on the precipice of extinction.
Spike1033 says
I agree with all the above comments, particularly about our leaders who say nice words but will offer no solutions. Allow me to share a fantasy:
There is a terrorist attack in london. After several days the police tell us the sub-human came from a certain country. The PM calls in the ambassador of that country and tells him: “Mr Ambassador. We know that one of your countrymen committed this act of war. Therefore in 6 hours a nuclear bomb will be dropped on your capital city. Good morning Mr Ambassador.”
This is a fantasy and would never happen. There would be massive financial and political problems and would cause unemployment and difficulty for many years. But this muslim insanity must not be allowed to infiltrate western democracy and we are not winning. They are radical and we must be more radical
