She has balls of steel tbh. I wouldn't confront them.

I don't even know what's going on. But my understanding is:

- Two British born men attack a man, believed to be a soldier (and wearing Help for Heroes t-shirt), run him over then behead him
- BBC reporting they shouted "Allahu Ahkbar" at the scene
- One of them speaks to camera (posted above)
- Police shoot the two suspects

Seems politcally motivated tbh. None of the above is confirmed btw.

EDIT - Suspects not dead apparently and are being treated in hospital.

The alleged attacker (I use that very loosely, the knives and bloodied hands are quite condemning) seems to have a very British accent for someone talking about "our lands".

What a horrible event though.

In England, thanks to groups like the EDL, BNP and other far right groups, a lot of British born ethnic minorities don't consider themselves to be British because of these groups making them feel unwelcome.

There is race/nationality fetishisation as well, but that's another subject entirely.

A politically motivated killing somehow gets turned into an act of terrorism by our media of propaganda mongers. There was no connection to Islam!
It was a black man, who appeared on camera and explained his motivations for killing. This does not constitute a terrorist act.
Abominations of 'journalistic' entities such as the Daily Mail take a story like this and use it to spread their own vile agendas of xenophobia and racism.
The man was acting as a statement on the number of innocents the British Army has butchered which is in the hundreds of thousands since the Iraq invasion began, yet nobody bats an eyelid.
Who really has more blood on their hands here? It's about time people escaped the shackles of our biased media outlets and were able to think for themselves. Inspiring fear and mindless hatred of another culture/race is what allowed Bush to push through policy and invade the Middle East. This is what the British media will do with this story, they've already began the process of scapegoating Islam for a politically motivated murder.
Fuck this country

If they shouted "Allahu Ahkbar" then it seems there was.

they didn't. I'd like to see one piece of evidence to suggest what the Daily Mail randomly plucked out of mid-air is true. NONE of the eyewitnesses or cameras heard this. Yet somehow the media did.
