“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” (Qur’an 47:4)
“‘This is for Allah, stop living this life’: What London terror knifemen screamed as they slit Australian victim’s throat in scenes ‘like a horror movie’ in packed restaurant during rampage that killed eight,” by April Glover and Max Margan, Daily Mail Australia, June 11, 2017:
An Australian woman and her partner who survived the London terror attack have described the moment three jihadi terrorists stormed the restaurant where they worked.
Candice Hedge, 31, from Brisbane, had her throat slashed during the rampage by three men who crashed a car through crowds on London Bridge last Saturday night before attacking innocent bystanders with knives.
Eight people died as the knifemen screaming Islamist slogans entered restaurants and pubs randomly attacking anyone in their path, before they were shot dead by police.
‘They were saying, “This is for our family, this is for Allah. Stop living this life,’ Luke told Channel Seven’s Sunday Night program.
Ms Hedge was working at Elliot’s restaurant at Borough Market near the bridge, along with her boyfriend Luke.
Recalling the ordeal in her first media interview, she described how she looked her attacker in the eye seconds before she was stabbed.
‘He looked at me and I looked at him, it really happened so quickly,’ Ms Hedge said.
Of the moment she was wounded, she said: ‘It was one quick go and that was it. I was vomiting blood.’
The terrorist had slashed Ms Hedge’s throat, leaving a deep cut that almost tore through her vocal cords and main artery.
‘I could feel the amount of blood and it was warm on my hand,’ she said.
‘And I could see how much it was and, you know, you see horror movies – it was like that. I was thinking for a moment that I wasn’t going to make it.’
The area the terrorists had struck was cordoned off and no ambulances were allowed to enter in fear the attacks were still ongoing.
Ms Hedge was forced to head towards medical help on foot while clutching a piece of cloth to her bleeding throat.
‘I was just thinking, “I don’t want to die. I want to get through this.” And I wanted to get out of there as well. I wanted to get to safety,’ she said….
Agha Ali Arkhan says
Muslims are not much fun. Non-muslim people look askance at muslims?
mortimer says
Agha, we are watching to see if the bulge in their clothing is a knife.
“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” (Qur’an 47:4)
Westman says
Considering New Years celebrations in Germany, any bulge is suspect.
Certainly, these Muslim jihad murderers “stopped living this life” and are soon having a conversion from Islam to compost.
TheBuffster says
Good one, Westman. 😀
Katnis says
The attacker told her to stop living this life – a life of having dinner with her significant other. What else could she have possible done wrong, in the attackers eyes?
– Not wearing a hijab
– Eating bacon / pork
– Drinking alcohol
– Exposing her arms
– Enjoying her freedoms as a woman born in a free country, who is given the right to choose her life’s path as she pleases.
– Simply existing
She is all of us, and she represents who ANY of us COULD be.
Anyone not convinced that *we* have “muslim” problem? Coming to a town near you.
Jerry says
So poignant, so true. You said it best.
Rob says
‘Living this life’ which pays your unemployment benefit, healthcare, education and housing support.
TheBuffster says
Rob, they don’t care about any of that, except that it allows them to live long enough to do their martyr operation and get to their effing Paradise. They aren’t interested in their material well-being in this life, they don’t care what we give them, and they despise us for caring about mere this-worldly values and endeavors.
What do they need unemployment benefits, healthcare, education or housing support once they’ve won their ticket to the Gardens of Allah?
Mike says
I think Rob’s point was that they’re leveraging UK benefits to wage war on the British.
Mahendra Singh says
Thank God she survived to tell her story. The jihadi bastards
think 24X7 how to establish Allah’s Kingdom over r entire universe.
And of course their methods- by murdering, raping and general mayhem
are quite authentic, become they com from the Holy book Koran
itself.
somehistory says
Sounds like her survival was a miracle. Bleeding to death and being forced to walk for medical help.
Anne Smith says
I am amazed that she has been allowed to quote the murderer. I would have thought our MSM, steeped as it is in Muslim protection, would have quietly censored her words.
Lynne says
How can any sane person believe that putting bacon on windshields at a mosque is important when compared to this? Poor UK.
Stan Lee says
One is left with the only alternative of protecting one’s self and loved ones. Muslim lunacy forces the issue of “kill or be killed.” Obviously, the Israelis understand dealing with the issue better than most of us.
These jihadis have an easy time of killing or grievously wounding those humans jihadis identify as non-observant to Islam. Being devout to any other religion or none at all immediately places one as a target for jihadi insanity.
It must be especially difficult for those of other faiths who live in areas where the carrying of firearms for possible protection from those set on jihad. As has been often stated, when the time comes for instant protection, the police are minutes away, which means one who is accosted by these stone-age knife-wielders must make the best of personal defense. This will induce more and more pedestrians to carry firearms,legally or not, to stop Muslim attacks dead in their tracks. It is either that or become victimized for one’s peaceful endeavors. And, many countries having made their gesture of allowing Muslim refugees who have fled the terror of Muslim environments, to exposing their own citizens to the perils of Muslims allowed into close proximity. in otherwise peaceful countries.
I especially make note of the UK with its tradition of police officers wearing nothing but their police identification badges. The fact became known that of approximately 17,000 police officers in UK, only 4,000 are qualified with firearm instruction. Based upon that fact, if it is accurate, a lot of non-Muslims ( are subject to stabbing expeditions by jihadis out for a day of their type of adventure.
For all of my British friends, the situation must be improved upon for the sake of innocent, peaceful citizens and their mortal longevity.
WPM says
Yes what is it with the British police most of them do not have side arms. With all the Islamic killing people with knifes, clubs, axes at least give police the tools to do there jobs. The police guarding who the government elected officials are armed with side arms and rifles, I guess the people who elected them pay there salaries and welfare benefits for the stone age Islamics savages do not merit this consideration.
SoliDeoGloria says
Anyone thinks Ozzies politicos in power will take note and listen to her heartfelt testimony?
If you answer “no” you’re probably 99% correct.
Jerry says
It’s heart rending to hear these victims’ stories, it could be me some day. I gotta ask, how many thousands of innocent lives must be destroyed before our leaders admit the truth about islam? How many excuses and lies can our politicians come up with? How long can the media continue to shill for the enemy? ISIS is now in our back yard, and believe it or not, we still have folks out there calling islam a religion of peace. There’s no excuse for their ignorance about islam:
Muslims tell us why they’re killing us–for allah!
Muslims tell us why they are going to conquer us–for allah!
Muslims tell us why they are against our freedoms, our culture, and our religion–for ALLAH!
This jihad bigotry and supremacy permeates every aspect of islamic culture and religion, but shockingly, our politicians and media still pretend that muslim violence for allah has nothing to do with allah. The fact these traitors so blatantly lie for islam is proof enough they’ve already surrendered to islam. They have no intention of tackling the real issue of islamic jihad on any level. We’re going to lose everything because of these f*cking traitors. We’re going to end up like one of those backwater muslim nations of the middle east, drowning in bigotry, ignorance, and poverty.
I truly believe we need a revolution for freedom all over again. We need to get inspired for our ideals and the things we love. These muslims have made it perfectly clear in my mind, they do not want to participate in the good things our western democracy strives for, like liberty and equality, or religious freedom and intellectualism free of religious intimidation and murder. To me islam is little more than barbaric hypocrisy, narcissistic hate, and profound ignorance of the spiritual and temporal kind. It’s beyond childish, it’s dangerously retarded, like a millstone around humanity’s neck that must be destroyed before we can be free.

London jihadi screamed “This is for Allah, stop living this life” as he slit woman’s throat
………………….
Living a peaceful life is condemned–but slitting the throats of innocent people is lauded.
God, I hate Islam.
I’m glad this woman survived–many other victims did not.
dumbledoresarmy says
The *best* story – the most inspiring – to come out of this horrible attack in London is the story of a British guy who *fought back*.
Barehanded, or rather, barefisted. And… **those three knife-wielding jihadis turned tail!!**
He got badly cut about, but… he’s survived. And because he stood in the doorway, because he *went for* those three jihadis… lots of other less brave people were able to *escape* out the back door. (Just a pity there weren’t three *other* blokes like himself, perhaps with long heavy sticks or BOTTLES with the neck broken off, or a bar stool…the rampage might have been put an end to right then and there).
http://www.independent.co.uk/News/uk/home-news/london-bridge-terror-attack-fk-fuck-you-im-millwall-hero-roy-larner-football-fan-lion-of-london-a7775246.html
“London attack: Football fan shouted ‘F*** you, I’m Millwall’ and took on knife-wielding terrorists with bare fists”.
(I LOVE that. The Jihadis howled ‘allahu-akbar’; but this tough bloke rushed at them, shouting F- you, I’m Millwall!’ and started *punching* them! Pity he hadn’t done kickboxing or Krav Maga… – dda).
“…Now out of the intensive care ward of St Thomas’ Hospital, where he was treated for knife wounds all over his body including his neck, the father-of-one has told The Sun how he reacted when the killers burst into the restaurant shouting “Islam, Islam” and “This is for Allah”.
“Like an idiot,” he told the newspaper, “I shouted back at them. I thought, ‘I need to take the p*** out of these b******s’.”
“I took a few steps towards them and said, ‘F*** you, I’m Millwall’. So they started attacking me.”
Mr Larner added: “I stood in front of them trying to fight them off.
“Everyone else ran to the back.
“I was on my own against all three of them, that’s why I got hurt so much.
“It was just me, trying to grab them with my bare hands and hold on. I was swinging.
“I got stabbed and sliced eight times. They got me in my head, chest and both hands. There was blood everywhere.
“They were saying, ‘Islam, Islam!’.
“I said again, ‘F*** you, I’m Millwall!’
“It was the worst thing I could have done as they carried on attacking me.
“Luckily, none of the blows were straight at me or I’d be dead.””….
‘Mr Larner, from Peckham, south-east London, said the attackers eventually “ran out of the pub and legged it”
‘Despite his injuries, he said he followed them outside.
“It wasn’t until I was in a police car,” said Mr Larner, “That I realised I was in a bad way. I’d been sliced up all over.””.

But he survived.
Looks like the modern-day British equivalent of ‘Deus vult!’ is going to be “F- you I’m Millwall!:”
TheBuffster says
Wow! Amazing that he’s still alive and talking.
Maybe the way to win in a knife jihad isn’t for everyone to run away, but to band together and take ’em down. Grab their arms and legs. Break their knees with a kick. Somebody grab their heads and give one quick twist. Mob up!
simpleton1 says
TheBuffster says “band together and take ’em down …. their heads and give one quick twist” and that would be merciful.
If enough band together it would be like a “Taharrush” that muslims practice on woman and girls.
Would be impossible for the police to point a finger to one person, and it would be no more than just an accident, as everybody would say “I kno nuffffing”.
It is sad that it has come to this, but the politicians and many voters do not recognize that an ideology has invaded and declared war on their citizenry, as written in the koran hadith sunnah sira constitution.
It will be a timing thing, like the beginnings of WW2, how much damage can you take, as one side builds strength up, but the other side learns much more to get its whole populace on side.
That is what we must do, to ready our western civilization.
In the 1930’s many sided with pacifist ideals, a 6th column, and understandable after the blood bath of WW1, but that all changed.
With cometh the hour, cometh the man, who only promised “blood sweat and tears”, often enough the ultimate sacrifice by many to hold, and then ultimately to win freedom, and retain democracy at the end.
Now there is another “handicap” as there seems to be a 5th column. It is the ideology that has to be exposed, as many here and else where spread the knowledge of that brittle ideology.
Free speech, information, discussion, debate, always constantly, unceasingly, dripping and exposing all of Mohammad’s mad sayings,advice, deeds, actions.
That may bring about the capitulation of many, to a choice of going back to Judaism, Christianity, or to grow on to Ahamadiyya, Druze Bahá’í Faith, or atheist, or Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist. What ever ? but to have some concept of the “golden rule”.
We must be strong active force, a safe “strong horse”.so that the apostasy can be made safely.
Then our own 6th column that is deeply embedded must also be exposed.
So we must understand our selves, well that is others and convince them.
Still all of that goes in cycles, and can rapidly change, so long as alternative messages of sense are being made.

Yes a great fight back by “Millwall” and I admire his spirited defence. I agree that if only 3 others, bar stools and broken bottles would have made effective weapons against knives.
If a few “Millwalls” had cornered those 3, one can not wait until police arrival. I would see that the only way in a fight like that, is to the death, of the attackers.
1) being in self defense of your self and others.
2) to prevent their attack going any where else.
3) ruthless death, as soon as possible, to stop any possible bomb and to stay ahead of any further jihadi reinforcements/supporters possible arrival, with heavier fire power. After all who knows?
The police, from their safe position would say that you took the law into your hands. They would want to apply the law in judicial courts making a case against you.
In this situation part of the defence would be seen by the actions the attackers first did.
However if you were the first lot to be attacked then that defence is gone, and you could be seen as a “hate filled” rightist extremist vigilante, though I would like to be thought of as good citizen with “sports loving” zealotry, knowing some “fencing” maneuvers/tactics.
It has to be recognized as war, life or death.
The politicians will have to decide what side they are on? so that the laws can be adjusted to support the citizenry.
A direction through legislation from Parliament be given to the judiciary in analyzing just what is the situation.
Phil Copson says
“Long heavy sticks” – exactly – someone whose comments will be reported – a Nigel Farage or a Boris Johnson, or a sane Labour politician such as Kate Hoey or Martin Chilcott – needs to come out and advise that in any sitiuation like that, it is up to the men present to grab a pool-cue, chair, bar-stool etc and fend the attackers off.
You don’t break the neck off a bottle, by the way, you hold it by the neck and smash the base off to make a weapon. A broken bottle flying through the air or jammed onto a pool-cue it going to deter anyone with a knife, as will a shower of glasses, pool balls etc.
“Grab a chair and chuck stuff” or even “Carry an umbrella” would be better advice than “Run, Hide, and Tell” for those whose priority is to protect those around them.
simpleton1 says
Yes, everything can be used as a weapon.
It is something that understandably that we do not really want to think about. However the times are a changing, as we see the mounting evidence.
Nor should we worry too much, just some thinking, pre-planning, so that we may have some idea for immediate action, for certain situations.
Just now and again to think of some possibilities, and quick ways if necessary to fine tune and hone, as mentioned above,how to set up a “bottling”.
Just to even to think to call out to warn others, to get others to safety, or to quickly gain assistance as you do one thing and so you guide some one else to assist in another way.
Bolt and lock doors and windows, immediately.
Beyond the point of no return, may seem to be in a desperate situation, but just what is the correct way. “Fight or Flee”?
“Run, Hide, and Tell” are possibilities but should not be set in stone.
Well “Flight 93” thwarted the hi-jackers actual plans, and came close to giving themselves a chance to win out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Airlines_Flight_93
One of many little actions that took place,as also the pilot’s which flummoxed the hijackers.
I do not know what I would do, but now and again reflecting on other’s bravery, thinking of possibilities, rightly or wrongly, I would want to take the most effective action.
There is a risk in many things, and of course bombs, that may go off, or might be a dud.
It is war, it is tragedy, but one owes it to themselves, by learning about the koran abrogation, hadith, sira and sunnah ideology.
Then they will have to decide what side they are on, whether they will be a “stepping stone” to win, or a “stumbling block”/excuse to add more blood shed for generations.to come,
Matthieu Baudin says
“… The area the terrorists had struck was cordoned off and no ambulances were allowed to enter in fear the attacks were still ongoing…”
So this is the level of support that I can expect if ever I have the misfortune to get caught up in a Jihadi massacre in a public place. I’m certain that a genuine ‘military response’ would not ‘put to one side’ severely wounded individuals in this calculated fashion. If our ambulances need armed escorts during these terrorist attacks then that’s the direction we need to take, together with locking up the local supporters of violent Jihad.
simpleton1 says
Matthieu Baudin says “So this is the level of support that I can expect if ever I have the misfortune to get caught up in a Jihadi massacre in a public place”.
The police treat this as a “health and safety” issue.
If put on a “war footing” then you are correct;-. “a genuine ‘military response’ would not ‘put to one side’ severely wounded individuals in this calculated fashion. If our ambulances need armed escorts during these terrorist attacks then that’s the direction we need to take, together with locking up the local supporters of violent Jihad”.
As you and I know, “war has been declared”, but the politicians do not accept that.
Just a “health and safety” issue to the general public who are expendable, as there are new voters on the block.
A supposed fear that we will loose our democracy, security, freedoms, that all become ceded to the state.
The politicians need to feel a real breeze of the situation of what Mohammad proposes through the koran with abrogation verses, hadith, sunnah and sira.
If that is what they side with, so far they have undoubtedly, and so far we keep giving them the benefit of the doubt.
Islam needs to be exposed, all it verse;-, 70x + etc, plus the intense brain washing during ramadan, with the wonderful feasting meals that end up chewing up infidels.
Unfortunately this blood letting will have to happen a bit more, as many wonder just what is happening.
Free speech must be maintained, with jokes, cartoons, mockery, memes about islams faults, dogs, pigs, bikinis, songs, chants, etc.
Many politicians have been chipping away at this important weapon. and symbol of freedom of the west.
As we debate and discuss here, that helps us to learn, strengthens our arguments, hones our thoughts, and so to be able to debate and inform others.
Thanks to RS and many commentators here.
Carolyne says
But, Matthieu Baudin, don’t ever throw a slice of bacon at one of them though. The police will have you surrounded in one minute flat.
Anne Smith says
This morning on BBC Radio, on the Today programme, we were treated to a heartfelt and sincere sounding speech from a former senior Muslim Police officer explaining to all of us that these terrorists were subverting and perverting a beautiful and peaceful religion and he wanted to deal with them and then be able once again to enjoy his wonderful and peaceful religion.
The trouble is, English people are generally very tolerant and believe in live and let live and will take this at face value. Most English people have little to do with Muslims, or if they do the Muslims they know tend to be more assimilated. Those who live in closed communities do not come into contact with ordinary British people and thus the more devout version of Islam is a relatively unknown quantity to the indigenous population.
Th politicians rely on their block vote and are therefore unwilling to alienate the “leaders” of the Muslim communities. The very fact of a block vote indicates that English values have gone out of the window.
scaredInfidel says
She’s not safe in Australia. Those fools have bought Muslims into the country too. And America is still bringing them in.
Phil Copson says
A very brave man, as was the off-duty policeman who also went for them with his bare hands and was also injured, but of those who were prepared to die to defend others, please remember Ignacio Echeverría, a Spanish banker who came to the aid of a woman being stabbed, and was then stabbed to death himself.
Cressida Dick’s witless remarks about “diversity” are pointless and crass. It is – a should be – a source of national shame, that people have trustingly come to London to live and work, or visit as tourists, only to be slaughtered on the streets by the savage pets of political correctness.

SAM says
Are we waking up to Islam yet?
Unfortunately we in the west became fat and lazy both physically and intellectually that we are giving away our freedoms to Islam and communism hoping that they will not bother us in our lifetimes. So sad we are setting up our future generations to deal with these evil ideologies.
We must call Islam evil that it is and prevent its practice in all forms like we would do with any evil cult. NOW!!!
Lon Spector says
What a wonderful message of brotherhood that people of ALL nationalities are offering
up their lives as sacraficial lambs to the Jihadi lads! They have it coming you know.
They have the temerity to believe in antiquated things like freedom and equality.
We must practice MORE inclusivity. That way, we may keep our fingers crossed that we might
get away with bold acts that contradict Shira.
The road is long, with many a winding turn that leads us to who knows where,
who knows why. But I’m strong, strong enough to die for him.
He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother…
Michael Casmer says
Okay, let me get this straight. i’m a ntive born American, veteran with a college degree. I can’t afford a car, or a house. Where do these people get their money? Oh wait, I get it. Never mind.
Anne Smith says
No wonder the poor brave Millwall supporter was cut to ribbons fighting the attackers, it is very hard to counter a knife attack, particularly with the element of surprise which is a powerful weapon also.
Here in Britain we are forbidden to have guns or carry knives when out and about. Has anyone any ideas as to where one could obtain a Taser? It seems to me that this would be the best weapon to defend oneself with against a knifeman. Otherwise we shall be reduced to a handbag with a brick in it.
Carolyne says
A can of wasp spray which will shoot insecticide 30 feet would be a good defensive weapon. It will at least temporarily blind them. Don’t throw any bacon at them though, that’s a really serious crime.
Ric says
My thoughts are with the victims. This young lady was fortunate, excepting the fact her life will never be the same after her traumatic wounds by the heinous, and cowardly slaughtering of innocents. Needless to say, the pompous apologists of Islam, May, and others within the inept leadership, whose priorities should be the security of innocents, not being submissive to a religious cult bent on the mass-murder of those whom are diverse of this cult’s nihilistic, beastly slayings in the name of a god whose edict is to slay the infidels.
Western civilization is teetering on a precipice of a catastrophic proportion thanks to the West’s pusillanimous, lemming-like leadership.
Carolyne says
It’s easy for me to say afterwards, but there must have been a fire extinguisher in the kitchen. It might have been useful to aim at the coward Mohammedans. Two or three people lifting a table and rushing toward these beasts might have worked too. This was a very brave man and apparently the only brave person in the restaurant. Sad.
