Comment on UK allocates £250m for policing in Jewish communities
flamingos@feddit.uk 2 days agoThere was a third guy stabbed which is conveniently left out of the “antisemitic stabbing”. Guess his faith.
The stabbing of the two Jewish men in Golders Green was clearly driven by antisemitism, though. He tried to stab a Muslim friend before travelling 8 miles without stabbing anyone to a famously Jewish part of London and stabbing two visibility Jewish men. The fact he tried to stab someone who is a Muslim doesn’t mean the other attacks weren’t driven by antisemitism.

The stabbing was done by a man who was very clearly mentally ill and was just released from a mental institution.
He literally stabbed the guy. What do you mean “tried to”?
8 whole miles? Is real life like GTA where your wanted level disappears if you travel 8 miles and everyone forgets about your crimes if you don’t get caught?

The friend fended off the attack.
Now you’re being a prick. If he was stabbing people only because of his mental illness, then why didn’t he stab anyone travelling between Southwark and Golders Green? Did it conveniently only reactivate when he saw man wearing kippah.

Source? Reports say he got stabbed but got off with minor injuries. It is sill proscecuted as attempted murder.
Because he took the subway and it’s kinda difficult to get off that one???
And I just quickly looked it up and it seems it’s a direct subway line from Northern Line Borough to Brent Cross station. He essentially stepped out of the station and was at the attack location.
Then afer that stabbing he walked half a kilometer and stabbed another person.

The Standard:
He tried to stab his friend at around 8AM and didn’t arrive in Golders Green until after 11. Did he not see anyone for 2-3 hours while taking the London Underground on a weekday?
