Default Crash outside parliament in London treated as terrorism

Quote:
A car crashed into pedestrians and cyclists near the Houses of Parliament in London Tuesday and police arrested a man on suspicion of terrorism, heightening tensions in a city that has seen a string-of vehicle-based terror attacks.

Two people were taken to local hospitals, but authorities said the injuries aren't believed to be life-threatening.

Armed police swooped into the area and cordoned off streets surrounding the heart of Britain's government. Police appealed to the public to stay away, and the Westminster Tube station was closed.

The 29-year-old suspect is not believed to be known to MI5 or counter-terrorism police, and is not co-operating with officers.

Lock him up until he decides to talk.

They'll probably lock up Tommy Robinson instead.

So, the oxygen thief does have a name...

Quote:
The man arrested on suspicion of terror offences after a car crashed outside the Houses of Parliament has been named as Salih Khater by government sources.

The 29-year-old British citizen, originally from Sudan, has also been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, Met Police said on Wednesday.

He came to the UK as a refugee and was granted asylum, the BBC understands.

His brother described him as a "normal person" with no fanatical ideas, and no links to any religious group.

Abdullah Khater also said his family - who are originally from Darfur in Sudan - was in "a state of shock" over the incident.

Its really outraging how impertently he refuses to reflect the glorious shine of superior Western society in his own life to illustrate how eagerly he just awaited to become like us and turn his culturally transported moral system and own feeling of identity into ours. Doesn't he know how superior we are with our civilizational example setting? That we convince by just being what we are? And the rest of mankind is eager to beocme just like us? What have they taught him instead that he did not learn this?

Very unthankful by him, to say the least. And shockingly unreasonable. We really need a public debate about how to retrain him better. We still can succeed, if only we put all out heart and money into it. He needs to feel our love, and that we do not mean him any harm.

Once again the bloody TV news went way OTT again. All other news cancelled yesterday why? I'm not convinced this is terrorism as today the story has dropped to third and fourth story line. Seems to me this guy was just a hot head and angry at something so he decided to take it out on some persons.


Bang him up and when he has served his sentence kick him out the country.

His claim is that he was in London to get a visa to visit Sudan.

Sounds like a bad excuse, then driving like a fool and hurting people.

I see it has fallen off the news agenda in 48 hours, seems to prove my point OTT news reporting.
