The Inevitable Decline Of Great Britain

John Hinderaker @ Powerline:

The brutal murder of an off-duty soldier by two Muslim activists continues to dominate the news in Great Britain. The scene was utterly bizarre: in broad daylight, in a busy section of London, the two Muslims apparently ran the soldier down with a car, within a block or two of his barracks, and then attacked him with knives and a meat cleaver. They attempted to behead him, apparently not quite successfully, as hundreds of passers-by looked on. No one stopped them–private ownership of firearms being illegal in the U.K.–but three random women, who have been extravagantly praised for their bravery, tended to the soldier’s body and engaged the murderers in conversation, in hopes of diverting them from killing anyone else. This went on for quite a while.

I was puzzled by early reports which indicated that police were present at the scene from the beginning, but also suggested that the killers waited for something like 20 minutes for policemen to arrive, whereupon they attacked them. It turns out that the reports were not inconsistent. There were policemen on the scene from the beginning, but they were unarmed:

Although other bystanders watched in horror and police waited helplessly for armed officers to arrive, Gemini modestly insisted her [sic] and her mother were not heroes and had done what anyone else would do.

The idea of policemen in one of the world’s major cities “wait[ing] helplessly for armed officers to arrive,” while murderers parade up and down the street soaked in blood and the body of a half-beheaded soldier lies in the street, is almost unbelievable. And yet that is the state of law enforcement in Great Britain. The average American household is better armed than a London policeman, and as a result, it was left to a few women from the crowd of bystanders to try to deal with cleaver-wielding murderers.

But that doesn’t mean the British are entirely lax with respect to law enforcement. No, not at all: it just depends which laws you are talking about. If you mean laws against carving up innocent people on the street with knives, well, the Brits have a problem. But if you complain about such an outrage on Facebook or Twitter, you’re going to be crushed by the full majesty of the law.

Michael Adebolajo’s friend, Abu Nusaybah, told Newsnight that Adebolajo had informed him six months ago that the security service had been “knocking on his door”.
He said Adebolajo had told him he had turned down an offer to work for them.
Mr Nusaybah said that his friend was “basically being harassed by MI5”.
“His wording was, ‘They are bugging me – they won’t leave me alone.’
”He mentioned initially they wanted to ask him if he knew certain individuals.
“But after him saying that he didn’t know these individuals, what he said was they asked him if he would be interested in working for them.
He was explicit in that he refused to work for them.

IF he had been remotely interested in ASSIMILATING into British culture he might have agreed to work with MI5.
But he, like most Muslims in Europe, have no intention of assimilating.
THEY want, as he made clear in his rant, Europeans to assimilate into Islam or die.

So what does the brave leaders of a once great country do, Why they tell soldiers not to wear their uniforms! They bravely come down on twitterers that say “harsh” things about Muslims. That’s what I call “bravery”

You see what we will become if we don’t take back our country? Why we are dangerously close now. Those that killed our embassador in Benghazi, what have we done to punish them, even though we know who they are? What have we done to stop all the Gestopo tactics of Obama?
