[Jordan.]

Surprised this isn't getting much attention. Hopefully the guy is okay, there was a lot of blood from the video I saw :worry:

[lewis111]

have a feeling this will be the first of a few attacks in the coming weeks

[lewis111]

in the videos the people seems to be acting as normal, the WH smith literally steps away is still open with customers whilst a terrorist attack going on right there

[Vicky.]

First of many, sadly.

[Ammi]

..great that he wasn't killed/that his injuries aren't life threatening and the other two are minor injuries...terrifying for them all and all who witnessed it...

[bots]

in a city of millions of people, this type of thing is going to happen unfortunately.

Why should it get any more attention than the guy who shoved a fellow passenger onto the tracks at Kentish Town last week, that guy was seriously injured,just another nutter in a city of 10 million. Are you saying because he screamed this is for Syria it is more important?

[Vanessa]

They really need to tighten security in all underground station. We need armed police in all of them, because now the UK is the prime target.

Yeah, I tend to agree - some lone lunatic going around injuring people in the name of whatever is a problem, but nowhere near as big of one as the threat of actual ISIS attacks. If the swift police and civilian response to this attack is any indication, rogue nutters running around trying to stab people shouldn't be an issue for much longer

Yes now under Terrorism

[MB.]

If you focus solely on the attacker shouting 'this is for Syria' then the most you can get from that is that either a) ISIS and its supporters are violent in which case, well done b) the attacker isn't affiliated with ISIS but is just a supporter, in which the most you can take from this is that ISIS may be planning to attack the UK at some point or another in which case, well done or c) the attacker has no affiliation with ISIS whatsoever and is just a nutjob with a machete

They really do, however even them they cannot be everywhere.
At least one thing to be thankful for is no one has died in this terrifying incident but I agree, security again needs to be looked at and heavily strengthened.
Everywhere.

"with a machete "

It was not that just a kitchen knife

In which case, it was a nutjob with a kitchen knife - really the height of ISIS sophistication, huh?

(also, if there's anything guaranteed to make Londoners feel more safe, it's armed police on your commute to work every morning)

Its on the later Front pages



They saying the the injured man is stable now

Yes True

[Will.]

They really need to tighten security in all underground station. We need armed police in all of them, because now the UK is the prime target.

yep, I've noticed quite a few officers at stations but they need to increase the armed police present.

They should all carry heavy armed guns.

[Gusto Brunt]

The man is mad. In other words, CRAZY.

Poor guy! shocking attack luckily it seems like he was acting independently.

[Vanessa]

So is he a terrorist or just some random nutter? I have no doubt that ISIS is planning to hit us next. I don't know how the government is going to stop them.

[Firewire]

He caused terror in a public place so he's a terrorist.

Not to put a dampener on things but attacks could happen just about anywhere, in a church, in your supermarket, you can't really defend yourself against people who are to kill themselves for their cause no matter how many armed police are around, best you can do is carry on as normal

[Northern Monkey]

Luckily this was a pathetic attack.Not one that IS would be proud to claim.I'd guess the attacker is just a random nut with sympathies for IS.

[JoshBB]

Horrendous, thank god the guy can recover. Can only hope there aren't more attacks.

[arista]

A member of the Public
shouted out at the attacker
"You Ain't No Muslim Bruv"

that has gone Worldwide now
even on FoxnewsHD

Alias 'El Sicko Fukco Wannabe Jihadist Attention Seeker'.

Should have shot the bastard instead of tasering him. In my opinion of course.

I agree, messing about with Tasers with this deranged lunatic attacking members of the public is risky, rather instead he got both barrels from the business end of a 45 magnum...

End of problem , bring in the cleanup squad to scrape the bits of brain of the pavement.... Job done

Perhaps the fact that he is alive may prove useful? They might be able to get information from him regarding other terrorists and planned attacks (without torture of course, that would be inhumane)

Why on earth would we want that, blown to bits in the middle of a tube station surrounded by passengers is what's needed here, and then disposed of in a public televised celebration that will definitely not incite more violence :cheer2:

The right-wing love a good display of violence and murder don't they, something they claim to condemn.

Josh I love you to bits :fan:

But here in the west us white people aren't violent remember, we're just democratising the world ;)

[JoshBB]

Josh I love you to bits :fan:

That wasn't sarcasm btw I think torture is totally inexcusable despite any crimes committed.

silly me!! haha us white people could never do any wrong in the world #freemarinea #otherrightwingpolicies #likeslavery #bantheburkha

[lostalex]

he was definitely a muslim, "bruv".

...I doubt this is IS linked at all but more someone who is mentally ill and it's possibly he may have a 'fixation' on IS/hence what he said...apparently his family have been concerned about his mental welfare for a few weeks and tried to seek help for him...anyways, my thoughts are that it's a good thing that our police aren't armed because he may have been shot dead for being mentally ill as opposed to being a terrorist....

[Ammi]

...and just to be clear on this and to avoid confusion...can we have no mentally ill Muslims please...:fist:...

[Cherie]

I agree Ammi this seemed like the work of someone who was mentally ill rather than following orders from Raqqa

Oh I know. What made me smile is your reliability to remain un-aggressive.
