Horrible bloodshed in London, England

Jeremy Corbyn Closing In On Theresa May, Says War On Terror Isn’t Working

Majority Report Contributor Michael Brooks is hosting the show for Sam Seder today. In this clip, we discuss the snap election in the U.K. as Labour narrows the lead the Tories were expecting and watch a clip of a recent speech Jeremy Corbyn gave.

Tonight, there was a criminal bloody attack near London Bridge in London, England. Best wishes for recovery, all you injured people! Stray strong, all your relatives and friends, and all people of London!

We know the attack was by van and knives. We known ten people are dead, including the three attackers. We know scores of injured people, some of them injured badly, are in hospitals.

We don’t know yet the motive and other context of this crime. Though Islamophobic political party UKIP already says they ‘know’ that Islam is to blame (meaning they claim to ‘know’ more than police (‘We know nothing yet about identities and motives of the attackers’) or anyone else), and that they are not suspending their general election campaign. And Donald Trump abuses the horrible bloodshed in London for propaganda for his plan to ban Muslims from the USA.

We do know something about the context of another recent bloody attack in England; on the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester.

By Patrick Cockburn in The Independent in Britain:

The Government has known since 2003 that the failed ‘war on terror’ could cause an attack like the one in Manchester

Were Saddam and Gaddafi not overthrown, it is unlikely that Salman Abedi would have been in a position to slaughter people in Manchester

British Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn agrees with this point that the foreign policy of the British governments of ‘new’ Labourite-Thatcherite Tony Blair, Conservative David Cameron and Conservative Theresa May, of bloody war on the Middle East in the name of a ‘war on terror‘ helped terrorism in Britain.

So do some prominent members of Theresa May’s own Conservative party. So do the British government’s own ‘security’ officials. So do most people in Britain, according to a recent poll.

One should hope that the British 8 June general election will bring the end of Theresa May’s failed policies of escalating a spiral of violence in both the Middle East and North Africa and Britain. Vote Theresa May out; save precious human lives!
