Although last week’s terrorist attacks in Britain were shocking in their murderous intent, they were not at all unexpected. They are merely the latest in a long series of attempts – successful, foiled and failed – in what is in effect a war waged from within Britain’s Muslim community against the host country.
Even a cursory recounting of recent terrorist activity makes it immediately evident that Britain is a country under attack:
On June 30, two Muslim men drove an explosive-laden car into the main terminal building at Glasgow airport. Most of the explosives failed to detonate.
On June 29, two cars loaded with explosives were discovered and defused in London’s nightclub district. Had the detonation gone off according to the plan, hundreds would have been killed.
On June 15, seven men received lengthy jail sentences for being members of a sleeper cell that was planning an extensive terror campaign across the UK. Their targets included buildings, aircraft and water supplies. On learning of the verdict, Home Secretary John Reid warned: “The outcome of this trial once again shows the extent of the very real and serious threat the UK faces from terrorism.”
On April 30, five men received life sentences for planning to bomb a shopping centre, a nightclub and a gas network with a giant fertilizer bomb. Expert witnesses testified that the explosion could have killed hundreds of people. The sentencing judge told the terrorists – all Muslim and British citizens – that they had “betrayed their country.”

Why isn’t this story running in the mainstream press? It’s the most important news of the day.
There appears to be one and only one realistic solution to this problem: Ban I-Slam in western countries. Anything short of that is not going to work in the long term.
Glenn Beck is about the only one calling this out. A lone voice in the wilderness.
We better be paying close attention to the Brits experiment in absolute diversity.
The Brits have sheltered the worst variety of terrorist scum, thugs and criminals under their ‘asylum laws’, provided networking and fund-raising opportunities, welfare funds and all the privileges that accrue to a British passport holder.
These terrorist and jihadist scum in turn ganged up and created subversion abroad - most notably in Israel and in India.
By one account, every single insurgent/terrorist movement in India had/has its leadership operating out of London! And India is a pluralistic, secular non-muzlim, democracy. These outfits are responsible for cold blooded murder of hundreds of innocents in India. The Brits refused to extradite even common murderers to India on the grounds that India would try and hang them!
The chickens are finally coming home to roost.
Let the Brits not pretend innocence on this one. Their pact with the devil - ‘stay in londonistan all you like as long as you don’t create mayhem here’ - is broken. Maybe the UK thought such groups brought it leverage. Maybe it was all one big unwitting accident (yeah, right). Whatever the reasons, the Brits ought to know you don’t set fire to others’ houses and imagine your own shall remain fireproof.
Ordinary Brits have my sympathies but the Brit govt needn’t pretend it had no clue this would happen one day.
/Have a nice day.
I've heard one commentator-Savge- suggest just that, but I don't think it'll happen, even after another attack!
Bush saw this coming to America and he had two choices: act or don’t act. Either way, he gets the blame when it happens.
I don’t have the answers, but suspect a southern fence will not stop it.
That pretty much sums up what you wrote. I can't see any chance of a turnaround anytime soon.
Islam is a criminal totalitarian system of governance. One addition, defund the Islamic world by destroying their oil fields.
The MSM will not ever regard this as ‘news’
One can but wonder how the Brits would have reacted if the attempted attack would have been done with a plane with swastikas on its wings. It is interesting how the nationality of the person is disconnected from the attack.
“a southern fence will not stop it”...any step towards enforcement does require a border that is controlled and the 1st step in realizing this is a real fence and a real force to man the border. The fence is the canary in the mine...we will continue to judge the efforts from our leaders by what is promised and by what is delivered.
it isnt because of the fact that mainstream news is liberal, and it is against the religion of peace.
We need to pick up all islamist peoples and deport them back to the country of origin.
We also need to free the U.S. of 30 million illegal aliens from mexico.
As a % of overall population they are far below critical levels as they already are in Europe but there are pockets of dominant Islamic influence in the US : Dearborn, Newark, parts of NYC are 3 that come to mind. In those areas they begin to change the culture towards Sharia law and slowly the locals leave or are intimidated into submission which is the meaning of Islam anyways. Parts of Toronto, Canada are an example closer home of what could happen here.
ISLAM is inherently incompatible with the West and nearly all Muslims do not want to assimilate into America. Our PC mindset stops us from addressing this and I fear it will take 2 911 + style attacks to wake us from the stupor of “Islam is like any other religion and most Muslims are good people”
Europe and Britain in particular is now a canary in the gold mine for the last hope of the West: The United States of America.
If so, then Christians need to get back to having kids again. In your great grandparent’s day a couple who were regular church goers who said they were only going to have two chidlren would have been met with the same shock as if a couple today said that they were going to have an open and gay marriage.
Of course, given another generation such a statement may not meet much disgust in most churches either. In that case, LONG LIVE ISLAM!
You go to Houston or Dallas or Pensacola or Tuscaloosa or Oklahoma City or Charlotte and the Muslims are not just going to take over an armed citizenry that is proud of their heritage. Luckily all of the US is not like MA (where I live) or the Left coast which I could see surrendering and living in submission to Islam.
The Brits have sheltered the worst variety of terrorist scum
While Amercia sheltered IRA terrorists because they wouldn’t get a fair trial in the UK, invited terrorist leaders Adams/McGuinness to dinner at the White House and continued to elect Peter King.
To see ouselves as others see us
Amen, brother.

Lowcountry, since you probably eat the right kind of BBQ I will respect your opinion.
mate I nearly spewed when I read that!
“the last great hope of the West: The USA”.
Its almost like you guys are doing an ‘i told you so’ to the UK for its choices in the past. Where’s the cameraderie? I guess at the end of it the UK and the US peoples don’t lost any sleep over one another right? I know for damn sure that should another 7/7 happen, these pages wont be filled with sympathy, but gloating.
Kick out Saddam after the US and UK had spent decades bringing him to power, financing his military, making sure he WAS the bastion against radical islam in the middle east, and what did you think would happen? Power vacuum, and all the players in the region want a piece. I told you so.
