And now, Stockholm...
#1
And now, Stockholm...
Quote:The driver of a small truck steered his vehicle toward a crowd of people and then rammed it into a department store in the heart of Stockholm on Friday afternoon, killing at least two people, the police and local news outlets reported, in what was believed to be a terrorist attack.
One person was being questioned after the attack, The Associated Press reported, citing the Swedish prime minister, Stefan Lofven. The assault comes after several other episodes in Europe in the past year in which a vehicle was used as a weapon.
“Sweden’s been attacked,” Mr. Lofven said. “Everything points to an act of terror.”
Train service in and out of the city was halted, the police were urging people to stay at home and avoid the city center after blocking off the affected area, and the Swedish intelligence agency said “a large number” of people had been wounded.

RE: And now, Stockholm...
this is why no nation should accept refugees from the middle east it will only cause problems.
the fact is the rise of populism in the EU is a result of bad policies and actions of the EU leaders.
then you have Brexit i could argue that the refugee crisis was the straw that broke the camels back.
to make it clear the citizens of those countries don't care about the refugees yet the governments want to he humanitarian.
and the only way to stop this refugee crisis is to pull out the middle east.

no no that's not clearly what mean the problem from the start with the refugees is you had people from other areas in the middle east besides Syrians flooding in.
so you have others from places that the US completely destabilized with our foreign policy you so have more people coming from other countries that were radicalized
at the same time with the Syrians. The overall problem you can just do a background check on that amount of people crossing the boarders flooding in like that.. Even then
lets be realistic for a moment we need screenings for all those people that want to come into a modernized western civilization then on top of that the culture shock would be a lot to them. So yeah bad idea to take in mass refugees without any real background check i mean to stay that in the first place.

Frankly these kinds of attacks are not uncommon even in Europe. If the driver were white, there'd be a short flurry of attention in national media where they happened before disappearing.

What the fuck do refugees have to do with this? Do you seriously think not having refugees will do anything to curb terrorism? Congratulations on being a stooge for the racists.

Lol, "the only way to stop the refugee crisis is to pull out of the Middle East?" You don't have the first fucking clue as to what is going on there, do you?

Derp.

I know, let's all tweet #PrayForStockholm and forget about it in two weeks, like we do with every other terrorist attack.

Another one?? Ugh... Sad
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

This kind of attack executed by a local because his girlfriend left him wouldn't make international news, except that the London attack involved a ME person.  Rolleyes
