Record number of terror arrests as EU warns of ‘stay-at-home’ jihadists

11

There was a record number of terror arrests last year, and there will be another record number this year, because the European Union keeps importing more Muslims, among whom there is an unknowable number of jihadis. This is civilizational suicide. Meanwhile, the Telegraph reports below that “the number of right-wing extremists arrested also rose to a record high.” This is ridiculous moral equivalence. “Right-wing extremists” aren’t carrying out terror attacks all over the continent, and threatening more.

“Record number of terror arrests as EU warns of ‘stay-at-home’ jihadists,” by Ben Farmer, Telegraph, June 15, 2017:

Police arrested a record number of terrorist suspects last year, as fewer would-be Islamic State group jihadists head to the Middle East and instead decide to stay at home to plot attacks.

The number of arrests for terrorism-related offences in Great Britain jumped by nearly a fifth, with 304 people held in the year until the end of March.

The figure was the highest since records began in 2001 and three quarters of the arrests were for international terrorism, almost all linked to Islamist extremism.

But the number of right-wing extremists arrested also rose to a record high after a neo-Nazi group called National Action in December became the first extreme Right-wing group to be banned as a terrorist organisation.

The surge in far-right extremism led to a jump in the number of white people being arrested, up from 68 to 113.

The Home Office released the latest figures as police and MI5 have said they are dealing with an unprecedented threat from Islamist terrorists planning attacks in the UK.

The statistics were released as the European Union’s own law enforcement agency warned about the threat from home-grown “stay-at-home” jihadists.

Stops made at ports and airports under counter terrorism powers fell sharply as the number of people heading to join Islamic State in Iraq and Levant (Isil) dropped, the Home Office said.

Fewer jihadists are heading to Iraq or Syria as Isil’s self-style caliphate shrinks in the face of an international air campaign backing Iraqi, Kurdish and Syrian rebel forces.

As the caliphate has dwindled, jihadist propaganda has encouraged would-be terrorists to remain at home and carry out attacks on civilians.

A Europol report warned: “Ongoing contact on social media between combatants in Syria/Iraq and ‘stay-at-home jihadists’ fuels the enduring potential threat posed by jihadist networks; now that leaving the country to take part in jihad has become more difficult, would-be attackers may indeed shift their focus to their countries of residence.”

The Home Office figures include 12 arrests made as part of the investigation into the Westminster attack in March. All were released without charge and told they would face no further action.

Since then, there have been two more deadly attacks, in Manchester and London Bridge, while counter-terror agencies have foiled five alleged plots.

After the Manchester attack police and MI5 said they were dealing with an unprecedented threat and were running 500 investigations involving 3,000 individuals at any one time.

There are also 20,000 former “subjects of interest” whose risk must be kept under review….

Left/Liberal Loons vote for scumbag “leaders” who allow more of these jihadis in and this should not surprise anyone.

While Muslim youths practice the art of torturing and beheading infidels http://bit.ly/2tlUWt3 ………to prepare for future jihadi attacks.

The clueless Left/Liberals run away instead of confronting them. Same story across Europe and parts of Dem controlled states/cities in America.

Paid media will not talk about it.

They’re more cowards than clueless.

Where are the men of the Christian West?

Was the WWII generation the last generation that produced men?

Or course there are masses of stay at home jihadists there all on welfare. The governments own making but never take responsibility instead passing more and more laws affecting ALL citizens.

Demonstration against terrorism in Cologne.
They have expect 10. 000 people. Well, 250 Musels 300 lefties thats it. For Erdogan there was 10.000 Musels on the streets.
We see it every day that lefties and Musels just tell us lies and primitive slogans.
I praise the day when the people have enough.
I will praise the day when Musels run home to get protection.
I will praise the day when the western world fights back.
I will praise the day when Musels swollow their own medicine.

German (and other EU) cities have been lost in large part, to no-go zones, which are now under control of organized crime groups made up largely of muslim immigrants. The crime groups are stronger than the police, and the German justice system is feeble, so there is no check on the crime groups.

Would the e.u kindly shut up, go forth and breed. The eu caused this problem, it exacerbates it, in essence it is more of a problem than the problem of colonization is itself. It is time for individual countries to act in their own best interests as the borderless eu has resulted in a lifeless western europe. No real loss though, western europe peaked about a hundred years ago, it has been regressing into a form of stone age socialism ever since.
