Will the Islamophobia never end?
“Counter-terror police arrest five men at sites across England,” by Vikram Dodd, Guardian, December 30, 2019:
Counter-terrorism police have arrested five men over concerns about a potential Islamist attack plot.
The arrests followed a joint investigation by MI5 and police, who conducted raids on Monday morning at residential addresses in London, Manchester and Peterborough.
The police side of the investigation is being led by Scotland Yard’s counter-terrorism command, with officers conducting searches of addresses in all three cities.
Investigators are understood to have been monitoring the men, aged 19 to 23, before their arrest.
Police said one man, 19, was arrested in Peterborough on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of an act of terrorism. A 21-year-old man in Manchester and two men in north London, aged 22 and 23, were also arrested on suspicion of the same offence.
Another man, 19, was arrested in Peterborough on suspicion of encouraging terrorism.
A number of separate operations targeting suspected jihadist plots in Britain have failed to lead to charges being laid, and there have been claims of flawed intelligence….

Yes as we all know arresting jihadist plotters and rapists is a racist act, despite Islam not being a race.
The fact that they desire to kill non-believers everywhere as a requirement of their religion is repeatedly ignored.
To admit the truth is politically incorrect and not helpful. They are reported as deluded, mentally deranged or not quite in tune with the true faith and meaning of Islam. So the head burying goes on and on and will do regardless of what they try to do next.
Even after the Manchester attack the press concentrated on the young man and his connection to Libya, and western policy, not the religious cause behind the attack.
And a few days later in Birmingham the local Muslims were handing out leaflets promoting Islam and selling the Quran in the Bullring, I saw it, as if nothing had happened. Quite frankly considering this failure to tell the truth we deserve to be bombed. J

Islamophobia outbreak in the UK: Counter-terror cops arrest five Muslims for jihad massacre plot
……………….
But…but…isn’t Islam the religion of peace? sarc/off
Simon Jones says
A phobia is an irrational fear. Standing up against Islam’s savage practices should be a normal humane thing to do.

Despite the PC world, Truth will show fourth!
Looks like the “big lie” of racism is dying already!

Islamophobia outbreak in the UK …………. ?
For a moment I wondered whether Spencer had joined the PC crowd.
Full reading gives one a gist of his satirical prowess.
Even dreadful things can be expressed in ‘Spencerical’ terms .

Yes–I treasure Robert Spencer’s unflagging sense of humor even in the face of this unrelenting savagery.
