Sky are reporting a gunman on the beach in Sousse Tunisia, apparently shooting tourists on sun beds, others being told to stay in their hotel rooms.

My friend came back from where this has happened just two days ago. He was a very lucky bloke.
Shocking scenes though for some stupid reason I looked at some of the images being shown on Twitter. Horrific.

These three attacks may simply be a coincidence , but I think most people are going down the lines of a considered coordinated attack designed to cause as much fear and panic as is possible. This is something that western society will now have to get used to on a more frequent basis . Events are overtaking western governments and will become much worse in the future . It is something that I have been saying for many years and now that it is here I am surprised that many are still over protective in terms of correctly identifying those responsible . These terrorists are the radical arm of IS and their clear aim is to spread their hatred as far and as wide as they can . Any area where there is a high density of Muslim people will be targeted as an area to recruit new members . In Britain those areas are too numerous to mention and as we have seen already , our security forces are at full stretch coping with the threats and current demands .
I think that today's meeting of Cobra once again illustrates quite profoundly how worried our Government is about the current situation and how it will all impact on the UK, At the moment we are in a high state of alert , and the counter terrorist squad will be at its most vigilant . I wouldn't be surprised that in the next few days we ourselves don't suffer from a similar attack following on from today's events . More outrage , more suffering and more strongly worded condemnation will follow . The downside is of course that all this will not prevent those potentially dangerous recruits entering into the UK as refugees and asylum seekers .We are talking you about hundreds of thousands of people entering every year with a tiny percentage of those being a security risk . One has to ask one self , even as a tiny percentage , if it is all worth the risk and what good is it doing .? I would have to say very little .

I'm reading on Facebook of a couple from Bucknall in the hotel next to one of those attacked!
Good news is that they are Safe at the moment.

RIP to all of the victims, murdered in cold blood.
Many Tunisians, just like Egyptians, will pay a heavy price for this also. Impoverished people who rely on the tourism industry are going to see their jobs disappearing. Which is pretty much what these terrorists want.

The Tunisian PM is saying that the majority of the victims were British and there are reports saying that the murderer was targeting British tourists.

And Tunisia are now showing us all how to deal with it. Close down all the mosques and organisations with any links to radicalisation. Question is, will the UK have the balls to do it or will we also have to wait for a few dozen innocent people to be murdered first?

We are too spineless to grab the bull by the horns and make a stand. We are to modern day terrorism what the french were to ww2. We are too wrapped up in political correct fucktardery to weed out these idiots.

'An attack upon the nests of fornication, vice and disbelief in God': ISIS's chilling words after Tunisian massacre which killed 38 as they warn 'worse is to follow'
Unfortunately not too dissimilar to the beliefs of mainstream Islam in respect of the West (if not the actions)

Supposed to be going on holiday near where this happened on August 4th. Thomas Cook are allowing free booking amendments to anyone travelling before July 31st.
So it's either go to Tunisia or lose around a thousand pounds.
All of which is of course insignificant in the grand scheme. RIP.

All terrorists convicted of terrorism charges should be executed and their families deported . What if there a suicide boomer and why wud you depart their families Because doing nothing is not an option. Terrorism is about as extreme a threat as we will face. There is no response too extreme! This Toff laden, shit stain of a Government needs to show some Leadership. A few "virtual" Hand grenades in the direction of the general Muslim Community is a good start. The British majority are getting impatient and restless. (Rotherham, Hate preachers, ISIS supporters in the UK, Tunisia, Divisive tax payer funded schools, Planning permission for huge Mosques, Still a complete lack of desire for integration, Muslim Ghettos, Immigration out of control). How long before the patience of the Great British Public runs out?

How long before the patience of the Great British Public runs out? I think it may take much longer than it would have done in the 1970s and earlier , simply because of the educational indoctrination our 40 year olds and under have been subjected to under the guise of Religious education , integration and tolerance . An excellent idea in principle , but not one that makes the threats or issues to the country easily fathomable if you've been told that there is not much difference in the religious paths . There are fundamental differences and the more radical extremists have exploited this for all its worth and are using it in a way to radicalise the more vulnerable members of young Muslims .... We are now at the crossroads . We are now at a point in our history where drastic action has to be taken to avert more terrorist attacks and subsequent gang warfare .

We are now at the crossroads . We are now at a point in our history where drastic action has to be taken to avert more terrorist attacks and subsequent gang warfare . I think Crossroads you talk of MUMF will come directly after the next UK based terrorist atrocity. Rest assured there will be another attack from these fuc&ing slugs in the (near ?) future. This will probably be met with mild indignation from our Muslim friends. At that point I think localised Gang warfare is a distinct possibility. As I say, the patience of the Great British public will eventually crumble under this intolerable provocation. I read somewhere today that the reason the Tunisia attacks had occurred is due to the Western Governments continued "poking" of the Muslim hornets nest in the Middle East. Well, these fuckers are now poking the English hornets nest and I believe this Government are too unaffected in their comfortable Rural Buckinghamshire estates to form any kind of meaningful response. This is my reason for thinking it will be the public backlash that occurs first. Sadly, I feel, this government will do nothing until the first UK Mosque full of "Worshippers" is bombed, burned or attacked.

From a perverse or fatalistic stance , I suspect that the bigger the atrocity the more impact it is likely to have on home soil....The U.S. Has had its 9/11 but as yet we haven't had anything on a similar scale . I sincerely hope we don't , but throughout history there has to be low point or extreme incident before more proactive strategies are employed to combat the more radicalised elements of Islam . Being more friendly and tolerant doesn't seem to be working does it ?
Our government doesn't have any answers .....it is the tail wagging the dog scenario at the moment . What is bizarre is the amount of people screaming and shouting that all 'Muslims are not bad '
We fucking know that ....Its those that are that we need to worry about .!
