It's all obvious but people chose to hide it. The so called Jihadis read books of certain scholars and listen to their speeches, get brainwashed and then get misused by the agencies. It's as simple as that. This same tactics is used all over the world but Muslims are mostly uneducated to realise what is happening.

Perhaps more foolishly they are modelling themselves as Modi Ji?
 
The British press does not seem to be calling him a Pakistani. What Pakistani links does he have.
 
madrassa mentality. wrong ideology of Jihad. Bringing change through killing humans.
All this is not required.

Not really, many people who previosly carried out attacks were from the educated, Some even worked in hospitals and were doctors. It's very easy to blame maddrassa but mostly it's not the case.

Which agencies are you referring to?
 
Appalling discrimination is the root cause. They have been coerced into an existence of living off drugs trade and low end jobs.
I've lived all my life in Britain. Never have I witnessed nor been subjected to appalling discrimination on a regular basis. This country offers everyone the opportunity to progress if they are prepared to work hard. It is one of the best countries in the world to live and bring up your children. I work with white British people daily as part of work. Fantastic people.
The only people who complain are those who insist on maintaining an us and them ghetto mentality and are not prepared to see this country as their own. They are the most backward, shameless, ungrateful people on the planet and they bring shame to the Muslims who do want to get on and improve their lives through hard work and endeavour.
I hope he and his ilk rot in hell.
 
When you are raised in strong society and you look back at your weak origin then things go wrong.
Palestine
Iraq
Syria
Libya
Lebanon
Yemen
Sudan
Pakistan
You will find this until above mentioned countries dont fix themselves.
The pride as Muslim and an embarrassing govt of our weak nations create a conflict in our heads.
 
Pak origin for the guy killed. And Indian origin Neil Basu for the Asst. Commissioner. Amazing how 2 communities who migrated at about the same time to the UK have taken such different paths in the country they adopted.
 
these crimes by such people make immigration by other Pakistanis much difficult and increases chances of rejection of visa application by peaceful citizens of Pakistan.May be british agencies are involved in it to stop more immigration of our citizens to u.k as europe is very concerned about increase in Muslim population in their countries so they can use such tactics

Metropolitan Police on Saturday identified the London Bridge attacker as British national Usman Khan, a 28-year-old male from Staffordshire.

"We are now in a position to confirm the identity of the suspect as 28-year-old Usman Khan, who had been residing in the Staffordshire area. As a result, officers are, tonight, carrying out searches at an address in Staffordshire,” Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu said in a statement issued past midnight.

Khan stabbed two people to death and left three injured a day earlier in an attack that caused fear and panic across the city as residents revisited the spectre of terror returning to London.

"This individual was known to authorities, having been convicted in 2012 for terrorism offences,” Basu said. “He was released from prison in December 2018 on licence and clearly, a key line of enquiry now is to establish how he came to carry out this attack.

He added that Khan was shot by specialist armed forces and died at the scene.

"The circumstances, as we currently understand them, are that the attacker attended an event earlier on Friday afternoon at Fishmonger’s Hall called ‘Learning Together’.

He added that police believe the attack began inside before Khan left the building and proceeded onto London Bridge, where he was detained and subsequently confronted and shot by armed officers.

Who is Usman Khan?
In January 2012, Usman Khan — a British citizen born in the UK — pleaded guilty to engaging in conduct in preparation for acts of terrorism contrary to section 5(1) of the UK’s Terrorism Act 2006. Khan was among nine men charged with conspiracy to bomb high-profile London targets in the run-up to Christmas in 2010. At the time, the men were described as an al Qaeda-inspired group that wanted to send mail bombs to various targets and launch a "Mumbai-style" atrocity. At the time of his arrest, Khan lived in Stoke-on-Trent, a city in central England.

At the time, a hand-written target list found at one of the defendant's homes listed the names and addresses of United Kingodom Prime Minister Boris Johnson — who was at the time the mayor of London — two rabbis, the American Embassy and the Stock Exchange. The British police counter-terror operation which led to their arrests was the biggest of 2010.

Khan was sentenced to detention for public protection with a minimum custodial term of 8 years — a sentenced designed by UK authorities to protect the public from serious offenders whose crimes did not merit a life sentence.

Offenders sentenced to an IPP are set a minimum term which they must spend in prison. After they have completed their tariff they can apply to a parole board for release. The Parole Board releases an offender only if it is satisfied that it is no longer necessary for the protection of the public for the convict to be confined. If offenders are given parole they will be on supervised licence for at least 10 years. If offenders are refused parole they can only apply again after one year.

2010 bomb plot
The judge who had examined the sentencing appeals of Khan and the other convicts in 2013 had said: “At some time, the accused each became a committed Islamic fundamentalist, believing in jihad, that is to say, they wished to support and commit acts of terrorism in furtherance of their religious beliefs. They came to the attention of the security services who monitored them using covert surveillance techniques and devices and were able to effect their arrest prior to advanced steps having been taken to implement their plans.” He also noted that although they were from different parts of the country (Stoke, Cardiff and London), the groups managed to meet together.

The judge had also said that the Stoke defendants, which included Khan, were recorded discussing terror attacks overseas. On December 15, 2010, Khan had been monitored by UK authorities in conversation about how to construct a pipe bomb from a recipe referred to in an Al Qaeda publication.

Authorities also heard Khan seeking to radicalise another male and making clear his intentions to travel abroad to a training camp which outwardly appeared to be a madrassah. The Stoke group, which included Khan, were to fund the camp and recruit men for it. The court noted that “Khan expected only victory, martyrdom or imprisonment.”
