There are no lone wolves in the global jihad. It is a worldwide war where education, income, color, race are irrelevant. The one common thread, the single motive, is Islam.

5th arrest in Manchester bombing as police look for role of ‘network’ in attack
5th arrest in Manchester bombing as police look for role of ‘network’ in attack
By Emily Shapiro, Karma Allen, Morgan Winsor, ABC News, May 24, 2017:
Authorities in Manchester, England, are investigating a network that may have played a role in the deadly attack at Manchester Arena on Monday night.
“This is clearly a network that we are investigating, and extensive activity is taking place across Greater Manchester as we speak,” Chief Constable Ian Hopkins of the Greater Manchester Police said today.
Five arrests have been made in connection to the attack at the Ariana Grande concert. Twenty-two people, including a police officer, were killed.
The Greater Manchester Police said today a fifth person was arrested in Wigan, located about 25 miles west of Manchester.
“When arrested, the man was carrying a package which we are currently assessing,” the police department tweeted. “A police cordon remains in place while this is carried out.”
On Tuesday, U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May raised the country’s threat level to critical — the highest of the United Kingdom’s five threat levels — indicating that another attack may be imminent.
Investigators on Tuesday identified 22-year-old Salman Abedi as the suspected suicide bomber. He died at the scene.
ISIS has claimed responsibility for the bombing.
Officials said that 119 people went to hospitals after the bombing, 64 of them are being treated and 20 of those are in critical condition.
Saffie-Rose Roussos, 8, is the youngest known person who died from the attack. She was separated from her mother and sister, who were among the wounded, police said.
The mother of 15-year-old Olivia Campbell confirmed on Facebook that her daughter was among those killed.
Runshaw College in Lancashire confirmed on its Facebook page that 18-year-old student Georgina Bethany Callander died from the attack.
Lisa Lees, a 43-year-old mother and grandmother, was confirmed to be among the dead by her daughter, Lauren Ashleigh Lees.
“My mum was an amazing lady and wife,” her daughter said in a statement. “We will pull together as a family and help each other through the darkness.”
May said Tuesday, “We struggle to comprehend the warped and twisted mind that sees a room packed with young children not as a scene to cherish but as an opportunity for carnage.”
Witness Joseph Harries told ABC News’ “Good Morning America” that “people were just trying to get out of the arena as fast as they possibly could after the blast. I was directly in front of the stage at the heart of the arena. I had exactly the same distance to get out of any of the doors.”
“I had my best friend with me, and I grabbed hold of her wrist and told her never let go of me,” he said. “We just ran. We jumped over chairs, railings to get out of the doors. We had to force open doors that wouldn’t open because people were trying to get to — the entire capacity of the 20,000-person arena were trying to get out of one exit.”
“It felt like an eternity,” Harries said, but it “couldn’t have been more than two, three minutes from in our seats to outside of the arena.”
On Wednesday the Metropolitan Police Service in London said that the public should expect to “see more armed officers” patrolling the streets in response to the elevated terrorist threat levels.
“The reality is that we must be prepared to be able to respond to and deal with armed and deadly attackers, so we must be in a position to respond with firearms officers who will use force to stop those attackers in their aim,” Metropolitan Police Service Commander Jane Connors said in a statement. “That is why is we have increased the number of firearms who are on duty, both out walking and in roaming patrols, at fixed points and carrying out a range of operations.”
Amid the security developments, the U.K. Ministry of Defense said the Changing the Guard ceremony at Buckingham Palace has been canceled for Wednesday in order to allow police officers to be redeployed.

And this Barbarian AND his family were “Known” to the British Security Services!!WTF!!!
The WTF is apparently British leadership believing it is better to let a few hundred be killed or injured by Muslims now and then than offend Muslims with effective surveillance, intervention, and deportation. Absolutely WTF.
I agree!! The British Leadership, its apologists and enablers ALL have blood on their filthy hands!!
Officials are examining Abedi’s trips to Libya and possibly Syria…!!! They KNEW this Barbarian had made these trips, but did NOTHING to investigate him on his return!!! Because they didnt want to ‘upset’ British Muslims, they did NOTHING!! These Fucking Politicians PC is KILLING us ALL!!
Look for a “network”, sure. But don’t ignore the ideology that motivates one or 1.6 billion: Islam. Britain’s leaders are hopeless fools for enabling these immigrants incompatible with civilized society. What is the purpose? How does it benefit Britain or humanity?
They don’t get it do they? Until they start seriously addressing the cause, instead of treating the symptoms, the root cause will continue to grow bigger and stronger until no amount of antiobiotics will work! Although, sadly, the same applies in my own country.

What a lovely crock of fertilizer. The bomber was known to police, who considered him not to be a threat, now they are going through the exercise of pretending to investigate others? Check their notes, assuming the police are telling the truth about knowing of the assassin’s terrorist ties. More theatrics, like the army ion the streets, how many troops are dispatched to enter and control the “no go” zones. Stop peddling this fake news, go bury your dead and get used to the concept that this is your culture under islam, which you voted for.
Profoundly ignorant people.
If the UK came to its senses and restored the private ownership of firearms and the right to self-defense, who do you think would profit most in the aftermath of such situations as this, the gun dealer or the florist? Of course, that is a pretty big “If”; if a frog had wings it wouldn’t bang its ass so hard every time it jumped either, would it?
It’s time the Americans stopped leaking our own secrets. It was bad enough when Obama did it but he was a muslim and it was to be expected. This time it’s different. We are trying to catch the members of a terror network and some asshole over there is leaking details of our own investigation.
We have now stopped sharing our secrets. What a state of affairs between friends.
For many months, Germany/EU has been threatening Poland and her Visegrad allies Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia to take in dangerous Muslim “refugees”. But the Visegrad 4 nations are still holding strong and keep telling Germany/EU….”We STILL say NO TO MUSLIM “REFUGEES”!!
Just after the Manchester bombing….the Polish Prime Minister Beato Szydlo made a speech basically saying that “Poland will NEVER take in any Muslims….especially after what we saw in Manchester!”
The Polish Prime Minister said Poland will NOT be blackmailed by the EU to take in Muslims since its CLEAR that Muslims are only creating terror across Western Europe. The Polish PM said its disgusting that Muslim terrorists have even sunk to a new low of viciously attacking young girls at a concert. The Polish PM said she WANTS Poland to continue to have an environment where young Polish girls and all Poles can walk around Poland without the fear of being blown up by Muslims. AMEN to the Polish PM!
