Britons are waking up this morning to the news that there has been yet another, presumably Islamic, terror attack, an attack that has claimed 22 lives and has injured at least 59 people. According to news reports a suicide bomber set off the explosion in the Manchester Arena where fans of the US singer Ariana Grande were enjoying a concert. Most of the audience appears to be made up of children, young teenagers and their families and it is these innocents that appear to have made up the majority of those killed and injured.

The Islamic terror attack, and it is more than likely to be an attack by Islamic savages, happened at about 10:45BST just as the concert was ending and created such a loud explosion that it could be heard by residents of houses and flats nearby to the Manchester Arena. According to witness reports published by Sky News those people inside the venue who were unharmed, both customers and security staff, fled in panic after the bomb went off.

A full scale emergency has been declared by the local authorities for the area and the police have said that this is an act of terrorism. It will be noted by many that the modus operandi, the choice of target and the targeting of children all points to this attack being the work of a bestial follower of the even bestial ideology of Islam and I’d be very surprised if it was the work of any other group. The hospitals that have been receiving the injured from the scene have been working through the night to save the lives and tend the wounds of those caught up in this latest act of grotesque Islamic savagery and I pray for the comforting of the bereaved and for the recovery of the injured.

22 people, maybe more by the time that you read this, who went out on a night out expecting a good time will now not return home to their loved ones because of the actions of a follower of a twisted death-cult called Islam. The death-cultist who did this, murdered children and women and men, not for any political cause or because of ‘mental illness’, but to appease a blood-soaked deity called ‘Allah’, a deity that sees murder and bloodshed and calls it ‘good’.

If this does turn out to be Islamic terror, something that is more than likely to be the case, then this wanton murder of our children and young people by this Islamic savage then the ideology that created this mass murdering thug, must not be forgiven or forgotten. Following this awful attack by a follower of Islam there must surely be now a realisation by those in government, that not only is this ideology, in its orthodox form, incapable of full loyalty to British culture and values, but also has no moral qualms about killing our children? Sadly, based on past events, I do not expect either an honest and public admission that Islam is a threat and neither do I expect a vengeance policy from the Government aimed at the community that produced or nurtured or sheltered this and so many other Islamic terror attackers. I suspect that instead of the police and military clearing out the mosques and madrassas and whole areas that have become nests of jihadism, we will see the same sort of mealy mouthed quisling-like appeasement as we saw following other Islamic attacks. We will probably see ‘reassurance patrols’ by police in Islamic areas and police guarding mosques, protecting Muslims from all, even peaceful and justifiable, public moral opprobrium. This crap needs to stop, individual peaceful Muslims should of course be protected from physical harm, but Muslims should not be protected from hearing and experiencing our justifiable anger at this and other Islamic atrocities.

We should not be putting up with these savages murdering our children, our police officers and our soldiers and a Government that thinks the nation should put up with an ideology that produces savages that delight in murdering British citizens, is an entity unworthy of being called a government. Harsh government action is needed against this savagery and the savages who promote, plan and carry it out, nothing less should be acceptable by the people following the awful atrocity in Manchester. The gloves need to come off now they really do.
