Globalising the intifada. This is what it means.

Can we start taking antisemitism in the UK seriously? At last?

Update: two dead, two injured. Suspect, who was shot dead, appears to have been carrying explosives – so this could have been much worse.

Police have declared it a “terrorist incident” – code for, a Muslim did it.

Added: the killer was a British citizen of Syrian descent. His name was Jihad Al-Shamie. Police said they are still working to understand the motivation behind the attack. Perhaps there’s a clue in the name.
