London Bridge jihad: “The effects could have been EVEN WORSE,” jihadis tried to rent 16,500-pound truck

The devout Muslim mass murderers wanted to maximize the carnage, and were foiled in this only because they couldn’t provide payment details. And this is still just the beginning for Britain.

“London Bridge: more arrests as police tell how terrorists wanted to use truck,” by Vikram Dodd, Guardian, June 10, 2017:

The three terrorists who struck London Bridge last Saturday tried to hire a 7.5-tonne lorry on the morning of the attack to kill even more people and inflict a bigger atrocity on Britain.

Early on Saturday morning police investigating the attack made raids in east London and arrested two more people on suspicion of terror offences, bringing the number being held to seven. A 27-year-old man was detained at a house in Ilford and a 28-year-old man at a house in Barking.

Five other people were already in custody as detectives and MI5 investigate if anyone assisted the London Bridge terrorists or had knowledge of their plans go run people over and go on a stabbing rampage. Eight people were killed and 48 wounded in the attack.

The van they used was hired by the ringleader, named by police as Khuram Butt. Police believe the intended atrocity was on a similar scale to that in Nice, France, in August 2016 when a truck drove into a crowd and left 86 people dead.

The attempted truck hire failed only by chance, because Butt failed to provide payment details. Instead they hired a Renault van from a firm in Harold Hill, Romford, in east London.

Commander Dean Haydon, of Scotland Yard’s counter-terrorism command, said: “Concerningly, Butt had earlier attempted to hire a 7.5-tonne lorry that same morning. When he did not provide payment details, the rental did not go ahead. The effects could have been even worse.”…

Once again we are saved because of the lack of planning exhibited by these barbarians. Reminds of the Syrian man who wanted to bomb a concert in Germany but did not have a ticket to enter the concert. The cheapskate wanted to go to heaven but did not bother to buy to ticket.

Why bother with renting? All one has to do is hijack a truck.

What if the media stopped playing “What if”? What if the terrorists decided not to be terrorists? What if they each rented a 10 tonne truck? What if the media dealt with the facts instead of trying spin off fiction based on hallucination?

Well, don’t worry, the ‘good’ mayor of London is working REAL HARD to see to it that his fellow travelers get the right equipment for the next job coming up real soon. Because an ill-equipped jihadi is just another “moderate” muslim.

SO the muslum attack only failed because of their incompetence — how inspiring for the law enforcement community of the United Kaliphate. But at least they’re doing a good job shutting down islamofauxbia — otherwise known as free speech.
