Barcelona Terror Attack

Recommended Posts

I was thinking only yesterday that it's been a 'while' since the last incident and then here we are again. Our neighbors just got back from Barcelona last week. Beautiful city, beautiful people.

Live here now, very scary when it's close to home. Weird how the other day I was thinking how easy it would be to kill loads of people when I heard about the france restaurant attack when I was walking down La Rambla..

You'll be ok if you're dressed like the Original Fosse Boys, Singhy - they'll just assume the circus is in town... lol

Madness, mindless, stupidity.

 

Achieves nothing but breeding hate. One of these days they'll mow down a family belonging to their own creed/faction/race and what then?

 

Doubtless many will be thinking this is Muslims, which it may well be, but being Barcelona, could be one of the Basque separatist movements?

That happened a long time ago.

 

Many Muslims died on 911, at least one on London Bridge, Manchester Arena...

Such a cowardly act of violence.

 

Still, remember it's all a series of desperate attempts to break the collective as part of their retaliation against everything Europe stands for, so they can put a dent in our Western Civilization, meaning our civil liberties. Ain't going to happen.

I'm not overly familiar with ETA or Basque nationalists but I'm fairly sure their grievance is with Republican Spain and not Catalans.

ETA has renounced violent struggle and handed in its arms.

As good a place as any to post this:

Have IS stated they were behind this already?

Everyone is bound to be pointing their finger towards them for this, but that link doesn't feel relevant to this incident yet (despite how shocking the details within that article are).

I know, I meant historically there hasn't been aggression towards Catalonians from the Basques but I didn't word it well

My mate has sent me a video of a bloke with a rucksack arrested by a swarm of armed police and another video of loads of armed police cars surrounding a car on the motorway I think. 

Breaking news on tve1 is that one of the cvnts has just been shot by police

Sickening really the people behind this, needs to be stopped at the source before it gets out of hand.

 

Isis? I doubt it will happen tbh.  

 

How can you win a war when they're willing to kill kids like in Manchester?  This will all be brushed under the carpet again in a few weeks and it will all be forgotten about.
