“Radical Islamic terrorism remains the most acute security threat to the United Kingdom, according to the Director-General of MI5” Andrew Parker. Parker pointed out the Easter Sunday Church bombings in Syria as an example of “the stark and tragic reminder of terrorists’ determination and ongoing ability to perpetuate misery through launching large-scale attacks.” But Britain needs to look no further than its own backyard to understand the threat of public safety from jihad terror attacks, as experienced in Westminster, Manchester and London Bridge, not to mention routine assaults and Muslim rape gangs.
Many in the mainstream media have tried to minimize the jihad threat under a fabricated threat of “white nationalism”, but a stunning statistic shows otherwise: “Muslims make up only an estimated five per cent of the Britain’s general population, compared to a white population — the major recruiting ground for white nationalists — of 82 per cent, ” and still, the largest threat is jihad terror.
“MI5: Radical Islamic Terrorism Remains ‘Most Acute’ Threat to the British People”, Breitbart, May 2, 2019:
Radical Islamic terrorism remains the most acute security threat to the United Kingdom, according to the Director-General of MI5.
Writing in the London Evening Standard, Andrew Parker confirmed that “of the multiple terrorist threats facing the UK, Islamist terrorism remains the most acute.
“The abhorrent events in Sri Lanka are a stark and tragic reminder of terrorists’ determination and ongoing ability to perpetuate misery through launching large-scale attacks. There is no doubt that the fall of the so-called caliphate in Syria marked a significant military defeat and a hugely symbolic loss for Islamic State, but we must not be complacent.”
Mr Parker also warned of the dangers of far-right terrorism and of the recent violence in Ireland with Republican dissidents, resulting in the death of journalist Lyra Mckee — but it was his warning about radical Islamic terrorism that dominated his message.
He spoke of the difficulties of locating terrorists in Britain and said that even though the majority had been “inspired by ISIS propaganda”, many had shown “no interest in travelling to Syria” to fight for the Islamic State. Mr Parker said that “in 2018, 80 per cent (of instances dealt with) were conducted by people inspired by the ideology of IS but who had never actually been in contact with it in Syria or Iraq.”
Regarding the difficulty of locating the subjects, he said that new technology had made it a more difficult challenge to locate and prevent terror incidents: “The haystack is bigger and the needle smaller.”
His comments come after MI5 announced recently that the number of far-right terrorism cases in the United Kingdom is far smaller than the number of radical Islamic terrorism cases.
There were said to be “700 or so” live terror plots and 20,000 individuals classified as “closed subjects”. The actual breakdown of the respective numbers of terror cases was not released but MI5 did say that far-right cases are “absolutely dwarfed by the number of Islamist cases”….

“Radical Islamic Terrorism”
As opposed to:
Regular Islamic Terrorism?
Muslim terrorists?
Violent jihadists (yes, there are some whose ‘fight in the way of Allah’ is not violent).
As Bosch Fawstein noted the other day: stop the name game.
mortimer says
Meanwhile, the British people live in daily danger from subway, airport and church attacks and the globalist media DEFEND and SHIELD THE JIHADISTS FROM CRITICISM and blame fake bogeymen like the ‘alt-right’, etc.
Free speech is now severely restricted in UK … getting almost like Pakistan. Where is this supposed ‘LAND OF HOPE AND GLORY … MOTHER OF THE FREE’.
England is now the MOTHER OF CENSORSHIP.

At least the English can still call it for what it is. In canada, our dear leader has ask that reports on terrorism not be specifically associated to islam, sikhism or otherwise to not associate whole communities to the acts of terrorism……ain’t that lovely.
But contrary to the English, our feminist in chief believes that the real threat of terrorism is from ”far right nationalists” funny .

ACT! For Canada is a forum for citizens concerned about the triumphalist brand of Islam that seeks to erode our cherished western principles of free speech and equality with the goal of eventual Islamic supremacy in the West.
We are fighting to protect our Country by speaking out in defense of our democratic values, our security and our liberty against the rise of Islamism. And we’re fighting for the protection of Canada’s national security. ACT volunteers from across the country are mobilizing to make a difference in their communities and for their nation.

Not to be mean, Michael, but the English are NOT calling what it is.
If they were, they’d call drop the ‘radical’ part.
Better yet, violent jihad–(yes, I know, if only they could).
Muslims aren’t ‘nationalists’, of course, as the Muslim nation–the ummah’s geography is a worldwide and borderless.
And, if Trudeau only knew how EXTREMELY ‘far right’ the Islamic theocracy really is.
Laughable to hear/read/see of Ilhan being labeled ‘left wing’.

This from MI5 is at least a move in the right direction.

At the very least, they are using the words “Islamic” and “Jihad”….

No. It is the Other Islamic Bomb that threatens not only Brits but the entire West!
Walter Sieruk says
Regarding many of those Muslim migrants who have entered the nation of England as well as the other European countries and then show only contempt .dishonor and reproach towards the people of those Western nations who were kind yet foolish enough to allow them, those Muslim migrants to enter, invade, their home countries of Europe in the first place. This type of situation is f reflected in the Bible .Which reads “When the wicked comes, contempt comes also; with dishonor comes reproach.” Proverbs 18:3. [N.K.J.V.]
Those jihadist Muslims with their Islamic way of thinking by their well thought Islamic schemes for the action of involvement in their violent and sheath jihad for the advancement of Islam in the many different Western nations. Those sly scheming jihadists are, somewhat, of a reminder of the information reveled in the Bible in Proverbs 15:26. In which the reader is informed that even “The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the Lord…” [N.K.J.V.]

It’s “m. i. five” — “em eye five” not M-fifteen. Just fyi.

So why don’t they do some deportation and shut the borders? There’s rape as well.

If there was still common sense in the world then western leaders would ban Islam from their countries. Political correctness will be the death of the western world.

UK: M15 warns that jihad terror remains the “most acute threat to the British people”
……………………………
MI5 is right. Good to see them telling the truth.
SuchindranathAiyerS says
I doubt whether the Politicians and Judges care: But, will they sentence MI5 head Parker for Islamophibia?
Rufluc says
They bang on about ‘far right’ terrorism but to what do they actually refer? Does it really exist in the way they try to make it sound? No, it’s clearly the typical narrative of the rabid left who always have to throw this in when Islamic terrorism is mentioned. Something which IS true terrorism.
They have this perpetual need to run down anyone with opposing views to them, meaning anyone on the right whether it’s barely the truth or not.
Do you hear of the ‘far right’ blowing innocent defenceless people up? Or large groups of armed assailants mowing down hundreds of innocents?
Sure, you get the odd individual, who gets sick to their back teeth with our impotent governments, who have allowed countless atrocities to occur in the west. So they take the law into their own hands, like that which happened in New Zealand.
Islam has declared war on the west, and thousands of innocent non muslims have been slaughtered by muslims all around the world. This has been going on for over 1400 years! But our pathetic governments just continue to allow them into the west to breed and multiply in their millions. Allowing them to steadily grow in strength, under the false pretence of being ‘moderate’ muslims. A ploy that is duping all of our gullible PC liberal leaders.
If they were truly moderate, wouldn’t you think they’d actively purge their communities of the murderous scum that live amongst them? But they don’t! No, they just continue to give birth to the next generation of home grown jihadis. Very much like those who planted bombs in buses and underground trains in London in 2005! All home grown….born and bred in the UK!
Ric says
M15’s Jihad warning is no more than cosmetic to cover their hinys. Non-Muslims are aware of the threat to themselves and others. It is PM May and company, Corbyn’s Labour Party and the entirety of the high-brow establishment who are equally as dangerous. Islam is now an appendage of these self-serving traitors; sooner than later Islam, parasite-like will devour its host.
Meanwhile, PM May and her version of the Gestapo prosecute so-called Islamophobes for daring to criticize what May et al deem the religion of peace. As mentioned, it is the non-Muslim citizenry that is perpetually under threat by this so-called religion of peace, the Cult, Islam. Britain touts the last time Britain was invades was over millennia; those, throughout the ages, who fought for Great Britain are rolling in their graves. Indeed, technically, the invasion of Britain by Muslims is not an invasion; insanely these intruders were welcomed with open arms, some generations ago, others as asylum seekers, which in itself is insanity at best. Then, there is the homegrown who are groomed to eradicate their so-called nation. Others who groom young girls for sexual depravity and self-gratification; this pedophilia is and continues but the fetid authorities and the judiciary prefer culpability over morality and the law.

Trudeau removed references to Sunni and Shia from a recent report on terrorism threats to Canadians.
