It is believed the group of around ten Muslim men were run over at the renowned Finsbury Park Mosque, in Seven Sisters Road, just after midnight.

Eyewitnesses reported seeing bystanders wrestle the suspect to the floor and pin him down until officers.

The Finsbury Park attacker is identified as Darren Osborne.

The man suspected of using a van to attack worshipers at a London mosque has been identified as 47-year-old Darren Osborne, a father-of-four from Cardiff, Wales. Police have confirmed that he will be charged with the commission, preparation or instigation of terrorism and attempted murder.

Osborne's neighbor, 52-year-old Dave Ashford, told the Guardian he was shocked to discover that Osborne was suspected of being behind the attack...

“Someone called me and said it was him and I said ‘It can’t be’. Then I saw the picture on the news and said, 'it’s him."

As RT reports, one person died and 10 others were injured in the incident, which British Prime Minister Theresa May has called "sickening," and London's mayor has described as a "horrific terrorist attack."

Ok so we reported a rumor last week from the Syrian regime that Baghdadi is dead.

I gave it a 20% percent chance due to all the whining about airstrikes on Raqqa a couple days before.

Now the Russian at saying they also believe he's dead Jim!

And that the strike on a ISIS command was theirs, its hard to tell because the US, UK, Russia and France are all bombing Raqqa or claiming to.

So there is no proof of life from ISIS to dispute the claims. I'm hopeful. Bumping it to 40% chance.

Is this real life?

It's not a phobia when they really are killing you.

In order to stop the growth of Islamic Terrorism it's helpful to read their statements. They often talk of Success.

As in the Islamic State successfully attacked this, or successfully took this area or defended that area. The event does not matter, what ISIS and terrorists are offering to young disillusioned Muslims is success. A pathway to make a difference.

Of course its a dead end as the terrorists can't provide the end state they suggest.
But without an alternative narrative or pathway to succeed in life , young idealistic people will continue to be sucked into the terrorist camp.

There must be an alternative pathway for them as well as efforts to fight.

The U.S. government has incorrectly characterized the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant’s (ISIL) strategy as having the endstate of creating an Islamic state according to the Westphalian definition of “state” built on the shared experiences achieved through geographic proximity and territorial integrity. While this goal is certainly an aspect of ISIL’s strategy and one that the U.S. may be thwarting, ISIL’s overarching strategic objective is one that U.S. national security professionals do not adequately appreciate or address: ISIL is leveraging basic psychological manipulation principles in order to build an online community predicated on the notion of a digital caliphate which is more important to ISIL’s long-term success than a geographically bounded caliphate. While true that U.S. military forces are defeating ISIL fighters and liberating key terrain from ISIL control, it is a mistake in perspective to see these defeats and ISIL’s associated transition from the land domain to the cyber domain as large blow to ISIL’s organizational efficacy.

This paper argues that ISIL’s notion of a Caliphate is aligned with the concept of a community rather than that of a state and that ISIL’s strategic focus is on psychological control rather than territorial control. After exploring ISIL’s success in building a digital caliphate based on the sociological concept of community, this paper presents recommendations for developing and promulgating alternative methods of community that will usurp the appeal of ISIL’s burgeoning digital caliphate. Finally, this paper concludes by discussing the implications of this research on a U.S. counter-ISIL digital messaging strategy.

The argument advanced by this research adheres to the following structure. The paper begins by articulating the differences between the concepts of community and state from a sociological perspective. It then makes the case that psychological control is more important to ISIL than territorial gains by assessing ISIL’s ideological impact on their three major target audiences before disaggregating the digital caliphate into its four basic components. After showing how these four components support ISIL’s concept of community, the paper offers a new paradigm for developing alternative models of community that offer credible alternatives to ISIL’s digital caliphate and how the U.S. government bureaucracy and organizational structure should be leveraged in order to effectively address the digital caliphate.

They tried to steal the wrong car.

A Tennessee homeowner held two escaped inmates wanted in the killing of two prison guards at gunpoint Thursday until authorities arrived and made the arrests.

Miller says something alerted the homeowner that people were outside his home and he saw the men trying to steal his vehicle. The trooper says the homeowner held the two at gunpoint with a neighbor he called until the Rutherford County Sheriff's Department could get there to arrest them.

This is her.

Looks like she may have stopped in NY on the return, I'm not sure.

Update: Reports this morning is that its all clear.

Coast Guard Lt. J.B. Zorn told NBC that an anonymous call was received, followed within minutes by a YouTube video with similar information regarding a potential threat on board the vessel.

The Coast Guard twitter account said the original reporting source of the threat had been detained by authorities for questioning.

Sketchy reports coming in, two police also shot.

Police outside of Washington, D.C. are investigating a shooting in the Del Ray neighborhood of Alexandria, Virginia.

Police are calling it a “multiple shooting,” WRC reported.

ox News is reporting that House Majority Whip Steve Scalise and members of his staff were shot during baseball practice.

The shooting occurred in the 400 block of E. Monroe Street, police told WUSA9. In addition to Scalise being wounded, WJLA is reporting that two capitol officers were also shot.

ABCNews is reporting that members of the FBI are on the scene of the shooting.
One witness told WRC that there were many shots fired and that members of Congress took shelter in nearby apartments. A baseball game was scheduled for Thursday morning, according to Roll Call.

Hat Tip: Matt.

Update the suspect is James T Hodgkins.

Don't blame the media.

Also he supports Rachel Maddow for President and is a member of a group called The Road to Hell is Paved With Republicans and Terminate the Republicanb Party.

Also an Occupy activist.

Update: His twitter feed.

Update: Bernie Sanders' statement.

Update: I would like to point out that when people go off and shoot people, I post on every one (who I will not name here) the same way. Other mass shooting POS no matter their political affiliations.

It would be refreshing to see some on the left do the same. Because lets face it, if someone shoots up an abortion clinic and you don't question yourself about it. Well you're not trying very hard. IMO of course.

But there has been an effort on the left to start trouble, like in Chicago last year and point fingers. And at every mass shooting to point fingers. At us, at those of us on the right who are appalled by all these actions. And terrorism.

We're called Islamophobes. Look if Amish start blowing shit up and starting WWIII and I don't develop some sort of Am-o-phobia, then that's crazy, its counter survival.

And go ahead and throw odds and statistics, that's the point of terrorism, to act in spite of the statistics. To sew terror. That's the point. To make you and the left and me on the right afraid.

Fear is perfectly normal, its the response that matters. You have to stand when you're scared.

So that is also what James T. Hodgkinson wanted. To make Republicans afraid.

We all have to stand against that as surely as we stand against all forms of murder.

Right, Left, Islamic, Amish (not very likely and I wouldn't expect it) , no matter. But we have to call evil what it is.

ISIS and other Islamic terrorists ARE evil. This lefist toxism and communist movement are evil, anti-free. Right wing racism is evil. if you hang on StormFront you can go strait to hell for all I care.

because those murdered people didn't deserve it. Those DC cops didn't deserve it. Lee Rigby didn't deserve it. Ken Bigley didn't deserve it.

These Muslims didn't deserve it.

It's all the same, Lord forgive me but may the memory of James T. Hodgkinson die today.

There was a horrific fire in London last night. 120 apartments burned. So far 6 people are reported dead.

It is said the building had no alarms or sprinklers. No word on the cause. Many are still missing.

Apparently Fouad is racist against Moroccans, either that or he doesn't want to face the drug charges. He already served time in Belgium but the Moroccans convicted him in absentia.

Daily Mail:

Belgium's most notorious terror recruiter has been allowed to marry the mother of his three children from behind bars.

Fouad Belkacem, 35, wed the woman in Hasselt prison several weeks ago in a move that activists and politicians fear could stop him being deported back to Morocco.

Under the alias of Abu Imran, Belkacem ran the Islamist website Sharia4Belgium which aimed to turn the European nation into an Islamic state.

So Islamic State says they are either going to wipe out all the infidels or die trying.

An editorial by IS's Naba on the Raqqa battle: "We either eradicate the infidels or we die trying, no third option.

But you have to hand it to them, they have a great sense of humor about it.

Another one!

A GINGER jihadi Muslim convert was radicalised online from his home in the Welsh Valleys, downloading evil terror manuals on carrying out “lone wolf” attacks.

Call centre worker Nathan Saunders, 24, used the web to seek out ISIS guides on making homemade bombs.

Well it does but not at Jawa Report, here we ask the really important questions.

Ginger or Mary Ann?

Of course we're out of water, the vaporators are broken.
