Authorities remain completely indifferent to the recurring phenomenon of converts to Islam somehow falling prey to the crazy idea that their new religion commands violence against unbelievers.
Interesting to see the hopeless “journalist” Lizzie Dearden at the Daily Mail. For years she has been with the Independent, covering jihad terrorists while steadfastly toeing the Leftist line that they have nothing whatsoever to do with authentic Islam. The equally ridiculous Daily Mail has been repeating the same Big Lie, of course, so she fits right in, although one wonders how uncomfortable she must be in a putatively “far right” setting.
“The baby-faced fanatic inspired by Jihadi John to unleash terror at a Justin Bieber concert in Cardiff… Just one of the thousands of under-the-radar lone wolf terrorists radicalised online that a chilling new book says MI5 is struggling to track,” by Lizzie Dearden, Daily Mail, March 11, 2023:
Lloyd Gunton was not a typical Islamist terrorist. The 17-year-old farmer’s son lived in the Welsh valleys with his Christian parents.
His sole knowledge of fighting jihad – a holy war – had been gleaned from his computer.
Yet the freckle-faced teenager had a butcher’s knife and a heavy claw hammer in his school rucksack, alongside a handwritten martyrdom letter proclaiming: ‘I am a soldier of the Islamic State.’
Inspired by Isis terrorists, his motivation for violence was to wreak revenge for British air-strikes on the Middle East.
From the confines of his bedroom, Gunton had planned to launch a deadly attack on a Justin Bieber concert in Cardiff on a balmy June evening six years ago. But his plot was foiled in the nick of time.
Just hours before 40,000 Bieber fans arrived at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, armed police – acting on information from the security services – burst into Gunton’s farmhouse near Llantrisant, South Wales, and arrested the would-be killer.
Gunton came to the attention of security services after boasting of his plan on Instagram.
Using the name ‘Alqaeds’, he wrote: ‘Cardiff, are you ready for our terror… May Allah bring terrorism to Cardiff.’
Posts also included a picture of the Welsh capital’s castle, an image of a Jeep, a knife, a bomb and a fluttering Isis flag.
He had even posted instructions on launching vehicle attacks, copied from Isis’s translated propaganda magazine….

Looking at the islamic creed, it seems that Mohammed and his bunch of thugs engineered their ‘faith’ to appeal to the lowest common intellectual denominator in order to maintain the dubious quality of membership necessary to execute their equally dubious proselytising strategies. So, even today, it should not surprise us to find that their new recruits have standards of moral integrity that would shame even the inmates of the farmyard – and maybe even a screw slightly loose. The ‘hero’ of this story seems to fit this profile exactly.

To me, it is absolutely unbelievable that that “journalist” mentioned, Dearden, and all the other fuckwits who still say that authentic islam is peaceful, can be so stupid. All that a person has to do is read some parts of the Koran where murderous violence against the dreaded non-believers is called for, or look at the blood-soaked history of islam to know that islam is, in no way, peaceful. And, of course, there are the endless Muslim terrorist attacks day after day. These people must have an amazing capacity for ignoring unpalatable truth, or maybe they are in the pay of the Muslims. Islam and peace, yeah, right, what a ridiculous notion that is!

OT from the UK
“Migrants ‘to be moved from hotels to ferries in bid to cut costs,’ reports”
“More than 50,000 migrants are currently staying in hotels in the UK at a cost of around £7million a day.
However, Rishi Sunak will reportedly declare the “beginning of the end” of asylum hotels in the coming weeks.
According to The Daily Telegraph, migrants will be moved into “decent but rudimentary” accommodation in former military bases that will be used to house adult males. It also claimed that the Government may house more migrants in ferries to cut costs.
Golf courses, country houses and airport hotels are among hundreds across the UK being used to put up asylum seekers.
“We continue to work across government and with local authorities to identify a range of accommodation options.
“The government remains committed to engaging with local authorities and key stakeholders as part of this process.””

It’s all utter madness. Governments continually say they are going to “do something” about immigration, but it doesn’t happen, and the UK continues down the road to destruction.

The kid must be mentally ill. That is what the authorities always say.

Do you mean she has that glassy-look in her eyes? She refuses to make eye contact? Just like all the terrorists do. That’s their get out free look as they refuse to take any responsibility for their actions? Islam tries to put across that is is good and kind when it is just the opposite. You know that islam gives only – ONLY- to islamic-groups?? Selfish and repeats the lies by their actions . You can’t but help to hate them and all their actions knowing they are lies and evil acts!

UK media submitted to Islam long time ago – forget freedom of speech in the UK.

I expect not many can recall the strange ideas one gets in the teen years. I can and some make me cringe with embarrassment. Today they get encouragement from the ‘net from all directions especailly the jihadis and Islamists. That is why so many young people went off to join the caliphate, after all that is what they are taught from childhood. When it is all dressed up with slick videos and promises of a bright future how can they resist?. It is also why the vote should not be given to teenagers.
This boy/man is in the category of the ones who think he serves ‘god’ by murdering innocent people. Of course nobody in UK or USA is innocent as they are all against ‘allah’

The quran abomination should be nowhere near an English school!
The last thing England wants to do is to protect the infernal quran it perpetrates the cult of evil, misogyny, terror and death (8:12 etc) it even JUSTIFIES CRIME (8:17), authored by the “Best Deceiver” (3:54) and inflicted on mankind by the deceiver’s messenger the foreign warlord Mohamed.
Only Marxists enemies of England like Labour (Starmer, Brown, Blair etc) or One Nation Tories who are New Labour (Theresa May, Johnson etc brainwashing everybody against Merit, White People and England -Equality Act 2010) would want England to fall.
BAN the infernal quran in English schools for the sake of English children.

My first impression, looking at the baby-faced picture of Lloyd Gunton, was that he is a trans (pretend) female wearing lipstick.

Could be, James. The one thing he isn’t is a “lone wolf.” In islam, there is no such animal
