Reuters: "Random Violent Crime" Is the New Euphemism for Likely Islamism-Inspired Terrorism

An Islamic Algerian man attempted to force a Norwegian airliner to crash using an axe he apparently smuggled aboard.

How are we sure he was attempting to crash the plane? Well, we don't have much evidence of that, except what he screamed out in lunatic rage:

"I’m going to crash this plane," screamed the asylum applicant[.]

Travelling Shoes notes that Reuters, ever alert for actions of a "militant" sort (like crashing passenger jets), offers the following paliative at the story's close:

Random violent crime is rare in the Nordic nation...

As it is in most nations, actually.

You know what's not quite so rare?

"Militant attacks." And/or "insurgency actions." Those aren't so rare as "random violent crime."

Is Reuters a publicly traded company? How long can shareholders of media companies go on allowing partisan political operatives-employees to destroy the brand name of the firm?

I don't think he's going to get the kind of asylum he was planning.

Planned attacks, like hijacking a plane are not "random" occurences (something that happens, the way it happens, at the time it happens, by whom it happens entirely because of chance). Terrorist attacks may use opportunity as a determining factor, but random chance is not the culprit. The premeditated violent hatred of vicious humanoid animals is.

Republican running for Mitch McConnell's seat literally trashes him in new ad
Kari Lake, just when I think you couldn't get any dumber, you pull a stunt like this, and totally redeem yourself!!!
I think the Democrat is arguing that the political appointees should exercise no control over their rabidly communist VOA employees. This is what they're always arguing -- they stock the bureaucracy with literal communists and then claim that the voters should have no control over these unfirable radicals. Lake offers a for-instance that will appeal to this Democrat of allegedly-suspect bedroom guests.
