“…the assailant, said to be of Asian descent…”
“Asian” is the British media’s favored euphemism for “Muslim.”
But of course a Muslim stabbing a Jew because he is Jewish is not terrorism in shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain today. It’s just part and parcel of life in the big city. To classify it as terrorism might enrage Muslims, and keeping Muslims from being enraged is the Metropolitan Police’s highest priority.
“Rabbi in his 50s is stabbed on London street ‘in hate crime’ as ‘knifeman’ is held on ground by two hero builders before being arrested for attempted murder,” by Jake Wallis Simons, Jack Wright and Jack Elsom, Mailonline, June 12, 2020 (thanks to the Geller Report):
A rabbi was stabbed in broad daylight on a London street today in a suspected hate crime before two hero builders tackled the knifeman to the ground.
Horrified witnesses screamed ‘He’s got a knife… stabbing!’ before they grabbed the suspect and pinned him down after the attack in Stoke Newington, north London.
Rabbi Alter Yaakov Schlesinger, in his 50s, was taken to hospital after being stabbed multiple times including in the head and the knifeman was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.
Construction site manager Lazar Friedlander and his brother Matt have told how they ran towards the attacker and restrained him after hearing a ‘serious scream’.
Lazar said: ‘I’m Jewish myself, and I can see another Jewish man shouting ‘hold him, catch him, he’s got a knife! Stabbing!’…
Though officers said the incident was not being treated as terror-related, some onlookers, believed he may have been targeted because of his religion.
‘Why he stabbed the Jewish man? I reckon it was a hate crime,’ Mr Friedlander said.
He added that he tried to speak to the assailant after pinning him down but ‘he just blanked me and wouldn’t say anything’….
Peter Lolkiewicz, a property manager, said he believed the knife used in the attack was about seven inches long: ‘I saw a man with a knife holding up the blade walking confidently towards the Nat West bank.’…
Workmen and a driver for takeaway service Deliveroo pinned the assailant, said to be of Asian descent, to the ground before police attended the scene…
Mark Berlinger says
The “Asian” euphemism that DaiilyMail uses again and again, over and over, is extremely annoying and frankly quite tiresome for its blatant obfuscation of the identities of these psychopathic murderers and rapists of non-Muslims. Let the readers know what is really going on. It’s a genocide. Stop hiding the reason for this bloodshed by misrepresenting this army of perpetrators. The pertinent identity of the killers is THEY ARE ALL MUSLIMS. Certainly these Muslims have names, too!
Dawne says
I doubt the name/exact ethnicity of the assailant has been released by the police yet so the DM will be going on the appearance. But then it’s always left a while until the name/ethnicity is released and by that time the ADD media and public have moved on to the next story.
Anna Yelena says
It’s not terror related? Now will the Muslims go berserk aided with Black Lives Matter and destroy businesses? Europe is lost. My parents left their Eastern European Country because of the Soviet Union, then the Nazis came. Have the Europeans not learned about being oppressed? The fanatic Muslims have made it clear they’re going to take over the world so why are Western non Muslim countries allowing their violence? When will we see some leaders with testicular fortitude take a stand? If the Criminal Muslims have prison sentences, when time to release should be time to deport and include their families. These Satan driven fanatics must be dealt with in the harshest manner.
Templer says
Yes bllack life’s mater but white life none gives a Shit Jewish white live donor mater at all all the crap coursed by this so called black life’s matter is nothing more than a undercover Islamic tacke over islam is the most raciest cult on earth all life mater get ride off islzm
FYI says
Didn’t the Chief Rabbi Mirvis of the UK at the “remarkable virtual interfaith #itfar” evening 6 May at ramadan suggest{if i am not mistaken and it being recorded here at JW}that he had ‘a good feeling about this’?
happy ramadan said the chief rabbi.
I wonder if the Rabbis in Germany in 1933 had ‘a good feeling about this”:maybe the nazis will go away and leave the Jews alone.
Fingers crossed.
And look at what is happening in the UK..i don’t have a good feeling about this.
Sahih Muslim #6985:islam’s plan for the Jews
Dawne says
Ordinary people in the UK aren’t anti-semitic – the Labour party was crushed at the general election in December, partly because of the anti-semitic behaviour of many of its MPs and members. It’s the Muslim population which have the common cause of anti-semitism with the far left which causes any problems here. The police are also too afraid to go up against the Muslim population and far left – I won’t hold my breath waiting for the police to classify this crime as anti-semitic, never mind terrorism.
Robert McCormack says
Yes the Uk still panders to Islam and now to the uneducated thugs connected to black lives matter.
The future is bleak with the population ignorant of the coming disaster.
Britain and the West is doomed. The police senior officers -the media are all involved in the pandering as they do not want to upset the muslims or ethnic minorities.
dapto says
It’s ok because it’s ok to stab a police officer in England now in the name of BLM and diversity.
Rakesh Sharma says
Why do the authorities so reluctant to tell the brutal truth to the member of public that why is it happening he got a knife he attacked a Jewish what if he had a gun in his hand he could kill all the Kafirs
The problem is well known that specific religion people are becoming radicalized and killing the innocents people all over the world and trying to prove their point in every manner
Just name someone Asian did it is not a justice to other Asians those does not believe in that ideology Asians have different religions too. All I am trying to say it by the time we will not cut the tree from the roots or just try to break the twigs nothing will be changed
Let innocent and non believers live they have full right to live an ordinary lives
Kepha says
Absolutely! Fear of being branded “racist” has removed the backbones of too many Western governments.
Thereader says
But we all know that “Asian” stands for Islamic. Government is so out of touch with people that they think they can still lie to us and get away with it. It seems to me that as soon as we elect anyone into office they become foolish and their back-bones dissolve. Everyone in the UK is complaining about this – that is, all except the young people who have been so thoroughly brainwashed in schools and “universities” (such as they are!) that they too cannot think straight. It is as if a satanic fog has fallen upon sections of our population.
Roger Woodhouse says
We here in the UK are being lied to on a massive scale and its been going on for very many years.Our ‘electorate is fooled into voting for the same old same old but we must place the blame at the feet of the ‘bought’media.They are complicit in the take down of the UK.Led by the tratorious BBC the people are denied the truth about Islam and the threat it poses.They believe that by keeping the lid on the ideology of that religion its influence will slowly erode.Our governments are leading us into disaster but they wont be around to see it.
Crusader 666 says
And still the British government, which ran on a “Keep the immigrants out” ticket, continues to turn a blind eye to the thousands of Muslims invaders pouring across the English Channel on rubber boats provided by the people-smuggling mafia. I hate to think that “The Great Replacement” is now British government policy, but all the evidence points that way!
Co-incidentally, the statue of Winston Churchill has been encased in plywood after being defaced by the BLM/Muslim rioters. How much freedom to protest do these scum think they would enjoy if Churchill had not thrown back the Nazi invaders? Just asking.
Kepha says
The little I know about British discourse tells me that “Asian” means “South Asian”–Indian, Pakistani,Bangladeshi, Sri Lankan, and Maldivian; the lands once “the Jewel in the Crown” of the British Empre. This being said, it’s clear the assailant was neither Hindu, Jain, Buddhist, Zoroastrian, or Christian.
But it’s no mystery why the British (and American, and other Western governments) are being so cowardly about identifying the source of this kind of poisonous behavior. Two or three generations of “anti-racist” and “anti-colonial” ejjimakashin and the capture of the major media and academia by the followers of Antonio Gramsci. The fear of being branded a racist is just too overwhelming.

UK: Muslim stabs rabbi in “hate crime,” cops say it’s not “terror-related”
…………………..
Ridiculous willful denial.
More:
Horrified witnesses screamed ‘He’s got a knife… stabbing!’ before they grabbed the suspect and pinned him down after the attack in Stoke Newington, north London.
…………………..
Glad to see that bystanders tackled this Jihadist and held him for the police, though. This is heartening.
Jayell says
This incident has shocked the local community. Just a bit of background information:-
Stoke Newington is very close to Stamford Hill, which has been known as Europe’s largest centre for Hasidic Jews for a very long time indeed, and you can see them in their distinctive garb all over the place – at the moment, that is.. It had always been a model of civilised coexistence for our Jewish friends – until relatively recently, that is when antisemitic attacks against the person in the street began to be recorded. This part of London is just two or so miles north of the Islamic Republic of Tower Hamlets, and it seems that ‘Asian’ (sic) persons from that part of the world seem to have found their way northwards, courtesy of the excellent services of Transport for London.
I haven’t got the official crime figures for Stamford Hill/Stoke Newington, but I believe that (apart from some sporadic ‘live street entertainment’ in the past from a different but non-islamic community around Stoke Newington) the areas have been generally civilised, and I believe Stoke Newington might still have its ancient church from its village days, apparently functioning without reported problems. Stamford Hill still looks quite neat generally, with its 3-4 storey Victorian/Edwardian town terraces which seem to retain at least some of their elegance. Compare that with Tower Hamlets, which can resemble an Islamabad slum in places and which quite recently earned the accolade of the ‘Acid Attack Capital of Europe’ – along with the rest of it which we won’t mention (or I’ll be here for hours0;. Also,Tower Hamlets has many historic and elegant Regency and Victorian churches – well, at the moment they are still ‘churches’ dedicated to the Christian religion and not something else, but that might depend on the gracious permission of the local communities and how long the vicars can tolerate being beaten up and their buildings vandalised.
It seems like tsomeresidents of Tower Hamlets might be in the process of making some more of their ‘last territorial claims’ over the borough border, just as they’ve been doing in Golders Green, another long-established Jewish area. In which case, watch this space for a few more pieces of ‘asian’ (sic) public spirit.
David says
Thank you Jayell for that interesting History Lesson. As an update, quite a number of Jewish families have ‘discovered’ a haven of peace on Canvey Island, on the east coast of England. They have very likely moved from Stamford Hill. They are not unexpectedly keeping themselves to themselves, after an initial welcome from the locals. Anything for a quiet life. My only gripe is that they are I believe living on Benefits, with large families to support. In this way, they are similar to muslims. But at least, they make no trouble.
gravenimage says
Thank you for that additional information, Jayell. No wonder this murderous Muslim went there to find a Jewish victim.
Anne Smith says
Brave bystanders -because they were liable to be arrested by the police who prefer that they are the only ones arresting and holding, as many householders who have tried to defend their property will testify.
David says
Good photo of the man kneeling on the neck of the attacker. Will muslims complain and riot over this? We shall see. Somehow, i don’t think they will. The evidence is too damning.
David says
Just re-looked at the photo. Not on the neck. I won’t say any more.
andrew mckendrick says
Just wondering recently ,during this period of virtue signalling statue removal of former slave traders ,what will happen when the mob find out that Prophet Muhammad was a slave trader and referred to blacks as raisin heads. Will the mob turn on the mosques?? No did not think so! Hypocritical cowards!
Jayell says
Further to the above,It’s also long been known that:-
(a) the transatlantic slave traders from Europe usually purchased their slaves either from African tribal chiefs/warlords/slave traders (who had first captured them in inter-tribal conflicts), or from Arab slave traders; so they were buying in to a trade that was already flourishing;
(b) the practice of large-scale slavery in any case had been well established in Africa centuries before the Europeans arrived and still continues unabated today, according to reports (see below);
(c) according to a report from one 19th century British explorer in Africa, up to 50% of village populations in a region he visited were of ‘slave’ status (so, if the report’s accurate, one presumes that it was considered culturally acceptable if they actually managed get away with it on that scale);
(d) when the British tried to stamp out slavery in Africa in the 18th century, they encountered strong opposition from one African King of the time (sorry, name’s gone right out of my head at the moment) who owned very large numbers of slaves, refused to co-operate and insisted that it was his right; how many more ‘Kings’ like this were there?; and how much, if any, organised opposition did they face from within Africa, because I’ve never seen mention of any to date? (In the UK, slavery was banned in a 12th. century declaration in London, then by law in nationally 1802 and internationally through naval action from around 1830 onward – I haven’t seen mention of anyone else doing anything much along those lines at the time;.and where is anything like the UK track record on this matter replicated anywhere in African or the Middle Eastern history?);
(e) male African slaves who stayed within the African continent were often killed or, if they ended up in Arab hands, castrated; and, according to media reports, this sort of thing still continues today in Africa where abductions from African villages occur, often for religious or ethnic reasons, or as prospective migrants to Europe who, according to reports, have often been found to end up in slave markets in places like Tripoli, courtesy of their Arab/African(?) traffickers;
(f) according to an American website I’ve recently looked at, some slave owners in the USA who profited from this business were themselves black, including one who it’s been claimed owned one of the largest number of slaves at the time; so who was oppressing whom?
(g) in the early 19th. century, up to 40% of the UK’s GDP was spent on naval and other campaigns to stop slavery against opposition not only from extra-African agencies but also African ones; and British naval casualties are known to have occurred because of these campaigns, a sacrifice that benefitted absolutely no-one in the UK;
(h) according to another American website that I’ve seen, over 1,400 white American ant-slavery combatants died in the 19th. century campaigns to abolish slavery in the USA; that’s some price to pay!.
So perhaps those who seem to be exalting themselves with so much ‘virtue signalling’ by threatening to tear down other peoples’ statues in the UK and elsewhere in the West had better try examining their own historic ‘virtue’ credentials first – that is, if they ever existed at all!

Fine post.
David says
andrew, muslims are keeping a low profile at the moment, except for this current terror attack. The police are really looking stupid by saying it is not terror related. We, on this website, all know it is.
Incidentally, blacks have traditionally voted Democrat, probably not knowing it was the Democrats that were the slave owners. I hope Trump points this out! A low blow, but an ace card!
wpm says
It does not matter what Trump points out to these leftard minions and BLM communist stooges they have whipped up the mobs to loot and burn with no resistance from mayors or governors in blue states and cities. The elected “leaders” of blue cities have issued a stand down order for the police to let it burn ,to sow a economic depression ,with the divided America into warfare among tribes All so Trump can not get reelected ,they would burn down their own cities ,kill the economy on the alter of “wokeness” ,the new found religion of the left.The black community have been feed the lie for the last 40 years all republican leaders wake up in the morning their first though is how can I keep the black man down.Every white cop thinks first thing in the morning boy I would like to kill a black man today!When you have a known race baiting ,open anti Semitic , anti white,lying ,stealing ,felon ,store front preacher Al Sharpton holding court on every major news network at a funeral for a violent felon who died because one bad cop murder him as a respected “leader” of the black community .Sharpton has a track record on inciting people to riot,encouraging people to burn down businesses in Brooklyn and Manhattan over 30 years ago,encouraging weak minded women to press fake rape changers against innocent men,tax invasion running into the millions.The list goes on to this day he is still held in high regard by many elected leaders ,and the MSM especial those who buy into the religion of “wokeness.”

Our Churches,pubs and all the premises are turning into Mosques and Madrasa government is not stopping them
they get a subsidy in council tax when do they declare one of their room as a prayer room many of them are living in big council houses as they have 10 kids or so
Still they do not have any loyalty towards this fantastic and accepting society
Their shop names are in Arabic
They implemented Halal economics -all over the word
They came as refugees and exploited the resources of the country
Now they started killing our innocents citizens
Love Jihad has opened its wings and our innocents girls are getting converting
Will we be blind as cat is not around
Rufolino says
Rakesh, thanks for your generous comment that Britain is “a fantastic and accepting society”.
With unbelievable things happening such as the statue of Winston being boarded up and the Cenotaph being desecrated your positive words are like a ray of light in the surrounding gloom.
I witnessed Churchill’s brilliant statue being unveiled in 1973. The Queen was present to unveill it but at the last moment she invited Lady Churchill to do the job.

The perpetrator is just another of the muslim migration invaders doing what he was sent there to do, cause death and violence.
