Gunmen on Loose in Vienna after String of Terror Attacks

THE GUARDIAN: Two people dead – including one attacker – after string of incidents in Austrian capital

Police in Vienna were hunting for a group of “heavily armed and dangerous” gunmen on Monday night after a string of shootings described by the Austrian chancellor, Sebastian Kurz, as a “repulsive terror attack”.

Two people were killed and 15 others – including at least one police officer – were seriously injured in exchanges of gunfire in the centre of the Austrian capital.

One of those killed was an attacker who was shot dead by police. But several other gunmen were still on the loose on Monday night, and Karl Nehammer, the interior minister, warned that they were “heavily armed and dangerous”.

“We have brought several special forces units together that are now searching for the presumed terrorists. I am therefore not limiting it to an area of Vienna because these are mobile perpetrators,” Nehammer told broadcaster ORF, urging the public to stay indoors until the all-clear was given.

Shootings occurred in a string of incidents at six locations close to Seitenstettengasse street in the heart of the Austrian capital, a spokesperson for Vienna’s police force told ORF. » | Philip Oltermann in Berlin | Monday, November 2, 2020

Trump Scapegoats Immigrants, Calls to End Diversity Visa Lottery That Brought Saipov to US in 2010

Sayfullo Saipov, the suspect in the New York City attack that left eight people dead, is an immigrant from Uzbekistan who entered the United States in 2010 through the diversity visa lottery program. Now President Trump has called for a crackdown on immigration, telling Congress to cancel the program. We speak with Yolanda Rondon, staff attorney with the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, who argues that blaming the visa program “scapegoats the vulnerable, which always happens to be immigrants under this administration.”

Manhattan Attack: Suspect Requests ISIS Flag in Hospital, Trump Asks for Death Penalty

The suspect in Tuesday's deadly attack in New York has been charged with terrorism. Sayfullo Saipov is said to have been inspired by Islamic State, and even requested the group's flag be hung in his hospital room. It seems Donald Trump wants to take matters out of the court's hands, tweeting that rather than a flag, he should be handed the death penalty. The US leader is also open to sending the attacker to Guantanamo Bay

Parsons Green: Device Intended to Cause Significant Harm Says PM - BBC News

Speaking to the BBC after chairing a meeting of Cobra, the Prime Minister Theresa May thanked the emergency services for their professionalism and bravery.

She said the police were doing all they could to identify those responsible and bring them to justice but urged the public to continue to go about their daily lives.

The meeting of Cobra has not increased the threat level to critical, Mrs May said.

The threat level is only increased to critical if the security services believe the threat of another attack is imminent. "The threat of terrorism that we face remains severe but by working together we will defeat them," she added.

No Ma’ame, It’s Not a Perversion of Islam!

Our prime minister has come out yet again with the trope that this is a “perversion of Islam.”

I am sick to death of listening to our so-called leaders’ twaddle about these terror attacks being a “perversion” of the 'peaceful faith of Islam.' How stupid do they think the electorate is? As I tweeted today: ‘Jihad is to Islam what Coke is to cola. It’s the real thing!’ Beat that, Mrs. May! That would be a good soundbite for you!

Our politicians will never get a grip on this problem, because they simply refuse to confront the truth. As I have told you before, this is not a law enforcement issue, which they insist it is; rather, it is a war – a war on the West. The Islamic State has already come out and called for ‘All Out War’ on the West during Ramadan. Islamic State is the real thing, too. Not much different from the version of Islam practised in Saudi Arabia. In fact, one could say it is identical. The only difference is that what is pracatised in Saudi Arabia is state-sanctioned rather than rogue. But the end result is the same.

How many more innocent people are going to have to be killed and maimed before our weak leaders change the narrative and accept that they have made a mistake allowing all these people into the West? When will our politicians come to their senses? They need to stop talking nonsense and start talking sense for a change.

Sad times!

UK: May Says “Things Need to Change,” Then Repeats False and Failed Analysis That Jihad Is “Perversion of Islam”

JIHAD WATCH: Theresa May says “far too much tolerance of extremism in our country,” and that “when it comes to taking on extremism and terrorism things need to change.” Then she repeats the same false and failed analysis, that the jihad “is a perversion of Islam.” Her refusal to identify the motivating ideology behind these jihad attacks means that she will never confront this enemy properly, and never deal with the real source of the incitement to violence. And so for all her tough talk, she is doomed to failure. Read on and comment » | Robert Spencer | Sunday, June 4, 2017
