kasper Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Twenty-two people, including children, have been killed and 59 injured in a suspected suicide attack at Manchester Arena. The blast happened at 22:35 BST on Monday at the end of a pop concert by the US singer Ariana Grande. Greater Manchester Police said the lone male attacker, who died in the blast, was carrying an improvised explosive device which he detonated. Relatives are using social media to hunt for missing loved ones. Police have set up an emergency telephone number in response to the attack. It is: 0161 856 9400. Chief Constable Ian Hopkins said it was "the most horrific incident" the city had ever faced. He said the "fast-moving investigation" was now working to establish whether the attacker "was acting alone or as part of a network". Home Secretary Amber Rudd said it was "a barbaric attack, deliberately targeting some of the most vulnerable". The prime minister is to chair a meeting of the government's emergency Cobra committee at around 09:00. Political parties have suspended general election campaigning.

p4psb Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 As I approach my 60th birthday, I feel sad for the victims of the Manchester attack and their families, as I did for Paris, London, Nice, Brussels and all the over victims, and I wonder what has become of the world. Over the past few years there have been numerous bombings and killings around the world and every one sends their condolences to the victims, their families, the people of that town and country and it's leaders. Nothing else - then it happens again, more condolences but no real actions against the perpetrators. Before I was born there was a certain Herr Hitler who threatened the world, and the world come together to eradicate the threat. I know you cannot compare them, but I believe that these so called ISIS/DAESH are as bad or even worse than Hitler, but the world uses feeble means to combat them. I am no warmonger, in fact I abhor it. However, enough is enough. It is time for the world and it's leaders to take action. I have no contact with these leaders, but some of you may. They must act now, ISIS/DAESH are cold blooded killers, and will not be stopped unless the rest of world come together. The are not real Muslims. So WORLD, STOP THEM.

pc71520 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Who has really been responsible for the ISIS actions? -The ones who destabilized the entire M. East area so that ISIS emerged. -The ones who trained & equipped ISIS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CODYQX4 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 UK: We'll just continue screeching "Not ALL of them are like THAT!" as all of Europe lets immigrants flood in at rates that are going to ensure the end of the native population of Europe. Poland refuses them. Where's the mass crime spike and terror spike in Poland? Oh wait, they didn't import 3rd world people, so they didn't import 3rd world problems. Really makes you think... They spend more time and money going after "racists" who say these attacks will happen, than they do actually preventing it. Meanwhile, rapists get slaps on the wrist. Any judge who gives them light sentences should be hanged, drawn, and quartered. 30 minutes ago, pc71520 said: Who has really been responsible for the ISIS actions? -The ones who destabilized the entire M.

Administrator DKT27 Posted May 23, 2017 Administrator Share Posted May 23, 2017 First of all, my consolation and support to all of the people either directly or indirectly effected by this. It's really sad this. I have heard that most of them were children. Really, the terrorist targeted children. I know children have been unknowingly or knowingly targeted before, but again, this has to be one of the worst target group one can ever have. I was reading the interviews of those or those who's children attended this, hearing about how this was going to even effect the children that thankfully did not become a direct target of this terrorist. Second, I would ask everyone not to take anti-any religion / belief / country stand here. I can understand people giving their opinions, but please not spread hate against anyone, terrorists excluded. @p4psb: While I completely agree with you, the group you are mentioning is not the only group out there. While it's a huge part of a problem the world is facing, it's not the only group out there example - a lot of them can be found in my country and my neighborhood country - I can immediately name more than a few. The problem is, either politicians lack intentions or if they do not, then world does not allow them to. Some countries unfortunately are busy between justifying what is good terrorism and what is bad terrorism, where as there is no good and bad terrorism, it's just terrorism, terrorism which needs to dealt with strong, coordinated and dedicated efforts, which will not happen if some countries or world leaders - not pointing anyone in particular, are busy thinking what is beneficial to them.
