    Was irishness the problem when the IRA was bombing the UK?

    With some it was, with me it wasn't, specially when people understood that those who sympathetic to "the cause" were but a tiny minority of Irish people.

    The states has got off incredibly lightly if you exclude 9/11, Western Europe and Israel has really bourne the brunt of of the Islamic terror recently. As for Ireland it is not a question of if but when we will see something similar here.

    But why exclude 9/11 its worse than every terror attack in western europe combined, so the US didnt get off lightly

    Don't bore me by lecturing us on how much you hate the Daily Mail, thanks.

    Mod-Ok folks, this thread is starting to descend into madness. Cut out the crap or else. Locked for 5 minutes so people can see this and cool down.

    Attacker stabbing people with long knife - eyewitness
    A security guard who oversees a number of pubs in the area has told the BBC he saw four people stabbed by three attackers.
    The man, who was deeply shocked and asked not to be named, said he was at the Market Porter pub when a colleague at another bar said there was a stabbing at the Borough Bistro pub nearby.
    He said he went towards this pub and saw that "everybody started running" and there was screaming.
    The eyewitness added that he saw three attackers, one of whom had a long knife and stabbing people, including a girl in her early 20s.

    Equating a peanut allergie to having someone run at you with a knife and slice you up,
    Your disgusting,
    If i was in charge,extremists would get a quick death but people like you would be would get a slow one.

    People have probably died in a horrific way and all you can do is regurgitate your peanut allergy mantra, would you tell that to the faces of the family's that have lost loved ones tonight, would you ****,
    And if you look through the thread only yourself has mentioned the colour of peoples skin, you might want to have a chat with yourself about that, its very telling.

    I hope we can all agree that this tweet is an absolute DISGRACE.

    He has no clue what happened yet and is using a terror incident to score political points and push an agenda.

    Of all the shameful things this clown has done, it's right up there.

    There's always someone who has to make it about their own pathetic agenda. You are pathetic.

    I'm sorry is it uncomfortable reading for you?

    The noble provos were ahead of their time in bombing and maiming innocent children before the Muslims.

    One is good the other is bad, is that what you're saying?

    That could be just a Muslim man in the video wearing traditional dress. He may have nothing at all to do with this attack. And as someone with experience of wearing dresses, they are restrictive and not something many people would choose to wear on a murder spree.

    I'm wearing a dress right now. If I was intent on murdering people I can't see why it would hinder me. Unless you're wearing an actual hobble skirt!
    The guy in the clip is wearing loose flowing clothing, not in the slightest bit restrictive.

    No lecture, but a bit odd that they've jumped to 7 fatalities when the closes verified news is 'more than one fatality' from BBC News

    The Daily Mail seems to have the wealth of information so far (they are after all the world's most read news-site).
    Three men with large knifes, but being described as 'Mediterranean' on their website

    Very very sad. :(

    This is literally what will be happening in different EU cities over the next decade at least. There is no mistake about it. This is the new normal.

    Dunno what he/she said, but that account was suspended. As it was suspended, it's probably best I never know.

    And also kind of irrelevant, considering people in most of the attacks across Europe have been from those particular countries.

    You want me to suffer a slow painful death for making the point that people use hyperbole relating to Radical Islam.... and you think I need a chat with myself?

    Listen, there's been a dozen murders in London in the last 8 days. None linked to Radical Islam.

    They get zero press coverage.

    My point re: peanuts is simple: Recognise that Radical Islamist pose a threat but don't let them win by over-inflating the scale of the threat.

    I don't know if there are new police protocols after the last few weeks but this seems different to what has happened before.
