The Thirty Ninth Blog Of Trig - Woolwich Violence: The Facebook Response

"This country is disgraceful letting all the evil scummy foreigners in.the government needs to look after our own people first. Rip the fallen solider in Woolwich. Hope the scumbags rot in hell."

"It is terrible what has happened in Woolwich, but will everyone stop being racist until we know exactly what has happened, and plus not every Muslim is a soldier hating terrorist. P.s. I'm from an army family before anyone starts. X"

"What is happening to the human race?! And why are these men being cared for in a hospital after such a blatant and horrific murder? Hack the f*ckers to death."

"A few extremist's actions and thoughts are not that of an entire religion please remember that people there's to much hate in the world already"

"That attack in London is an absolute disgrace. Not a British National send them back, if we pulled that shit in Pakistan, Dubai, you name it there would be uproar"

"It's a lack of education and full understanding of the Islamic faith that leads to these kinds of acts and it's also unfortunately a lack of education and full understanding of all facts that leads to the statements and ignorant opinions that some people are posting. A lot of people on here could really use a few sociology lessons in my opinion. I am certainly not condoning any form of extremism or terrorist activity in any way but wake up people and do not judge an entire race or religion by the actions of a misguided few. I know lots of devout Muslims that are truly fantastic people. My thoughts go out to the family and friends of the deceased RIP"

"Why is David Cameron rushing home from Paris? Surely he can delegate sending non-lethal aid to the Woolwich terrorist beheader of soldiers? Aren't we supporting these people in Syria?"

"Fucking sick to my stomach about what's happened in woolwich. How dare them cunts come into this country and touch our troops like that , hope they fucking burn in hell. RIP the soldier who lost his life from this vile attack and thoughts are with his family."

"Cannot believe what my eyes have seen and heard... Woolwich attack and Stacey Dooley being bullied in Luton was wrong on soo many levels.. Extremist idiots who give a bad name to all of us people as humans regardless of race and reiglion... Their attitude stinks and also those who support violence and hate like that silly moron Anjum Chaudhry need to leave this country , migrate and preach somewhere else... We want to live here peacefuly with the rest of our communities without the fear of having barbaric extremists like them in our society.. I as a muslim condemn such attacks..I AM BRITISH and I LOVE MY COUNTRY... Islam means peace not war !!! And anyone who uses Islam to their own advantage to use excuses to preach hate and violence are idiots !!!"

"Broken Britain we want our country back all u scumbag Islam,Allah preaching terrorist arsehole's piss off back to your own country. Can see some serious retaliation from this."



RIGHT! Awful tragedy we have seen in Woolwich today. But I have to look at what I am seeing objectively. Where do I start...the BBC is saying it is a jihadist attack - the guy in the video is a Londoner. He sounds British to me. If you don't think he is, then you are thinking like a racist. I didn't hear him say anything about Allah, or Jihad, or Islam, or Al Qaeda, Iraq, Iran or Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya or Syria or Israel. He rants on about how we need to get rid of the government, and the scumfuck media have leapt upon it as an excuse to make you angry and scared to pave the way for relinquishing more of your privacy and freedom in the name of 'security'. This is not a religious attack. It is not a racial attack. It is a brutal murder, by sick, violent people. Like the many other murderers we see in London. Like the kids we see stabbing and shooting each other outside schools. You don't see the whole of Britain up in arms about that. That is also racism. Like the apathy towards the hundreds of thousands of innocent people around the world who have fallen victim to the bombs of western powers. People are so angry, so appalled and disgusted that this one man fell victim to this horrible act, but read about a wedding being blown up in Afghanistan and shrug. And you're surprised that some people hate our country?
Look at things objectively. Beware of emotions that spring up from what is shown to you. Look, listen, learn, grow, and think for yourself.

UPDATE - I have been criticised for the paragraph above. The men who committed this crime do clearly claim to be on some kind of a religious crusade. One of the perpetrators of this crime have since called themselves a 'Soldier of Allah', which some people would use as an excuse to brand Islam as an evil religion. Muslims around the world have condemned the attack.

The Muslim population of Britain is 1.54 million according to the Office of National Statistics. 1,540,000. Two men out of these one million five hundred and forty thousand brutally murdered a British soldier in broad daylight on the streets of London. Why did they do this? The Telegraph says the following:

The defendant said the only reason Fusilier Rigby died was because of British foreign policy, and told how he had been “disgusted” by the “shock and awe” of the Iraq war.
“I was keen that the reason for the death of this man is not misunderstood. I wanted people to understand that this is only happening for one reason: foreign policy.
“It continues to be my hope that the life of this one soldier might indirectly save the lives of many, many people both in the Muslim lands and this country.”

So the perpetrators claim to have a righteous cause behind this vicious murder, one whose goal is to save Muslim and non-Muslim lives. As disgusting and insane this might sound to most people, this is what they claim was their motivation. In contrast to this, I am reminded of Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian who murdered 77 innocent people, mostly teenagers, on what he claimed was a Christian anti-Islamic crusade. He may have been declared insane, but at what point does it stop being religion and start becoming insanity? When you try to slice a man's head off in the street? Or when you shoot 77 people?

It is all insanity.
