Will the UK let May tackle Islamist terror?
Times of Israel ^ | 4 May, 2017 | Daniel Horowitz

Posted on 06/04/2017 7:52:09 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Op-ed: The British prime minister plainly recognizes the nature of the struggle. Her opponent in Thursday’s elections, Jeremy Corbyn, equally plainly does not.

With Britain battered by three terrorist attacks in three months, and its security services having thwarted five more in the same period, Prime Minister Theresa May on Sunday morning set out the specifics of her intended strategy “to take on and defeat our enemies.”

May’s succinct and determined statement, delivered hours after three terrorists killed at least seven people in a central London murder spree, raises two questions: Does her government have the will to fight back in the way she specified, and, with general elections on Thursday, will it be given the opportunity?

Watching her from Israel, which has for so long been forced to grapple with the Islamist death cult, May gave every indication of having internalized what she, Britain, and the rest of our free world are up against.

What “bound together” the stream of terror attacks in the UK, she declared, was “the single evil ideology of Islamist extremism.”

Terrorism was now breeding terrorism, copycat style. The situation had become intolerable. Enough was enough. “We cannot and must not pretend that things can continue as they are.”

When will Europe realize that these terrorists are simply acting in accordance with their religion of islam.

...”take on and defeat our enemies”

How about immediately deporting people on your terrorism watch list?????

How about immediately deporting the entire families of immigrants who commit serious crimes?????

It’s getting very tiresome hearing the standard condolences to victims and condemnations to killers.

Time to get off your a$$ and DO SOMETHING.

They can target extremism all they want. The elephant in the room remains Islam.

(In British accent) Oh most assuredly we WILL NOT! We aren’t not going to behave like those ghastly Americans and their dreadful police television progammes running about shooting guns and locking everyone up! No violence here please, we’re British. We’ll just keep calm and carrying on, that’s what we’ll do and we’ll have no more of this foolish ‘’fighting back’’ rubbish. Tea anyone?

LOL!

I’m not sure which is funnier, the UK letting May attack, or the prospect of May actually trying to attack... something.

What a farce.

She can start by restoring the death penalty for terrorism. To paraphrase a 19th Century British General:

Mohammedan: But Jihad is part of our culture!

General: And it is part of our culture to hang those who kill innocent men, women and children. And there are many trees in England, and we have lots of rope.”
