| 'Thousands' Of Terror Suspects Under Watch In London, Mayor Says |
| 2014-10-12 |
| [IsraelTimes] The British government is monitoring thousands of terror suspects in London, Mayor Boris Johnson told the Telegraph newspaper on Friday night, as the official terror threat in the UK remained at "severe" level. "In London we're very, very vigilant and very, very concerned," Johnson said. "Every day -- as you saw recently, we had to raise the threat level -- every day the security services are involved in thousands of operations...there are probably in the low thousands of people that we are monitoring in London." In late August the UK's terror threat risk level was raised to "severe," meaning an attack was "highly likely". It was the second highest level out of five possible categories and the highest since July 2011. The increase has been tied to developments in Syria and Iraq, and Britannia's involvement in the fight against the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group there, which could encourage retaliatory attacks by British Death Eaters. It has been estimated that approximately 500 UK nationals have traveled to fight in the region, with the Telegraph reporting that about half have returned home for various reasons. "London has a particular concern," Johnson said, "because probably of the five or six hundred that are out there, we think a third, maybe more -- maybe half -- come from the London area. If and when they come back, we have a real job to deal with them." |

| #1 Your [UK] immigration policies helped create this situation. Now solve the problem. At this point it won't be easy. |
