the key suspect from the first attack Moussa Oukabir has now been confirmed as one of those later shot

Good

Totally! :thumbs:

Do they ever need a valid reason. Their hate of anyone who doesn't subscribe to their hate-filled ideology is reason enough for them. Morons!!!

Its low numbers in total.


But look at France just over a year ago
The Fast Truck Killed over 80

So one Driver can Kill Massive
amounts



The Spanish Terrorist :
they need to catch the Killer on the run
or blow his Head to BITS via a Sniper.....

FAST

That little boy is still missing, has he been abducted? if someone took him to safety they would have contacted the authorities by now, surely he isn't laying somewhere injured or dead unfound?

My thoughts Cherry. If he wasn't amongst the victims where is he? It doesn't bode very well and is very worrying. Some opportunist maybe!

Reports saying he had been found in hospital have now been dismissed as untrue

Toll has risen to 15 I think. Also:

The chief suspect in last Thursday's Barcelona attack made his escape on foot to the outskirts of the city where he hijacked a car, Spanish police say.

At a news briefing, they confirmed that Younes Abouyaaqoub, 22, was suspected of driving the van which ploughed into dozens of people, killing 13.

CCTV footage in Spanish media appears to show him walking through a market district shortly after the attack.
A manhunt has been extended across Europe and police say he may be armed.

Some 90 minutes after mowing down dozens of people on the central Las Ramblas avenue, Abouyaaqoub fled to the city's university district, police say.

Abouyaaqoub is alleged to have hijacked the car before driving it through a police checkpoint and later abandoning the vehicle. Police say he may have crossed into France.

The male driver of the car, Pau Pérez, 34, from Vila Franca, was found stabbed to death in the back seat, becoming the 15th victim of the Barcelona bloodshed and a later attack in the resort of Cambrils

Are they serious?

Pau Was an Aid worker in Haiti where he helped out for months after the Earthquake in 2010

what a waste of life


the Iman who is suspected of radicalising the 12 in Ripon was Iman at a Mosque in Belgium for 5 months, he was reported to the authorities there as some of the Muslim community were not happy with his views and teaching.... yet he was free to return to Spain to radicalise these young men, the police really need to get a grip...if they are ignoring reports especially from within the muslim community there really is no hope

Agreed Cherie. For all of the anger about letting people into the country, there seems to be minimal interest paid towards us who govern and police it.

Any time people question the police (here, anyway, can't say I can pretend I know how Spain's works) you just get told "well they've stopped 95% of attacks". Not good enough really.

Its good to hear the Muslim community reported him to the authorities though, considering you always hear about Belgium being an extremist hotbed and how their are Muslim only parts of the country now, pretty reassuring to see they have the courage to report the extreme teachings

Don't think the Police really have any idea how to handle it anymore and maybe in places like Belgium its gotten overwhelming and sense they have lost control of areas
