An American woman was killed and five other people injured in a stabbing attack in London’s Russell Square by a Norwegian man of Somali origin who was arrested after the incident, authorities said.

"So far we have found no evidence of radicalization or anything that would suggest the man in our custody was motivated by terrorism," Rowley said.

He said the woman who died was a 60-year-old American, and the five injured people are British, American, Israeli and Australian. None had life-threatening injuries. Two remain in a hospital, while three others have been discharged.

Hmmmm. Somali perp. Victims are American, Australian, British and Israeli. Yeah, probably no connection to the religion of pieces or terrorism. Any reports of him screaming about the snack bar? Lucky for them they have strict firearms laws. How much worse could it have been.

American, British, Australian, and Israeli. What incredible accuracy! Positively preternatural. Satan must’ve guided this demoniac’s hand.

The report in The Sun (yeah, I know it is a tabloid) had the first witness describing the perp as a black man in a white t-shirt. Further down in the article, a witness describes the perp as a chubby white man. PC rears it’s ugly head? I wouldn’t think a Somali-Norwegian will be perceived as white.

"... by a Norwegian man of Somali origin..."

By a Somali man posing as a Norwegian.

“a Norwegian man of Somali origin”

No. He was a Somali who invaded Norway for a while, and now he’s invading Britain.

A Drudge headline reports that the UK is stunned over the Somali teen’s attack. Considering what has been going on in Europe with third world Muslims, why would the UK be stunned?

What a joke. Forget the fact that his MO fits exactly with many other terror attacks by Muslims, and the fact that there is no other apparent motivation to explain it...

Western Media has become "Hear no Muslim Terror, See no Muslim Terror, Speak no Muslim Terror"

Tabloids in England do a good job of reporting. They have massive circulation.
