In the UK, a Maryland Man Crashes His Vehicle Into a Synagogue on Yom Kippur, Killing Two, Wounding Four Others

These Maryland Men sure do get around.

A man in England on Thursday -- Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar -- rammed his vehicle into people at a synagogue, killing two and injuring four others, according to authorities, who called the attack a terrorist incident.

Assistant Metropolitan Police Commissioner Laurence Taylor, the head of counter-terrorism, said that the attack had been declared a terrorist incident and the suspect was fatally shot by police, according to NBC News.

Two people were killed during the attack at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Crumpsall, and three others were in "serious condition," he said.

The incident occurred at about 9:41 a.m. local time in the city of Manchester, and the suspect was reportedly fatally shot by police.

Greater Manchester Police initially said in an X post that the suspect could not be identified because of "suspicious items" on his body, as they were being dealt with by bomb disposal officers.

Authorities believe they know the identity of the suspect but are "unable to confirm at this stage," Taylor said. Two arrests were also made in connection with the attack.

...

The police posted earlier on X that a member of the public reported having "witnessed a car being driven toward members of the public" and that one "man had been stabbed" near the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Crumpsall, an area with a large Jewish community.

...

King Charles III said in a statement that he and Queen Camilla were "deeply shocked and saddened to learn of the horrific attack in Manchester, especially on such a significant day for the Jewish community."

Sure, Chuckles. Whatever.

Also happening in the UK: The British left is projected to be demolished when they finally hold elections again. Reform is projected to take a clear majority in Parliament, no need of any help from the "Conservatives." (Who will fall to about 30 seats, down from their peak of 350 five years ago.)

So what is the British left doing? Pumping out Assassination Bait against Farage.

The deputy prime minister, David Lammy, has found himself in hot water after claiming in an interview with the BBC that Nigel Farage "once flirted with Hitler Youth when he was younger".

Sources at Farage's Reform UK party responded by calling the comment "disgusting and libellous". Lammy has clarified his remarks. "He [Farage] has denied it and so I accept that he has denied it and I would like to clarify that position because in the end the prime minister is keen for us to focus on the policies not the individuals," Lammy said.

Effeminate communist PM Keir Starmer is tagging Farage as... anti-British??!!

He tagged Mr Farage an 'enemy of national renewal' and suggested he would say anything for popularity - dismissing the idea that the country is 'broken'. 'When was the last time you heard Nigel Farage say anything positive about Britain? He can't. He doesn't like Britain,' he said.

Sir Keir delivered vicious barbs at 'politicians who lie to this country, unleash chaos and walked away after Brexit'. He questioned whether Mr Farage 'wants the country to fail'. 'Do they love our country? Do they want to serve our country, all of it... ? Or do they want to stir the pot of division?'

In an immediate on-camera response from London, Mr Farage said the attack from Sir Keir 'will incite and encourage the radical left'. Highlighting the murder of Charlie Kirk in the US, he said the 'disgraceful' language 'directly threatens the safety' of Reform campaigners.

But deputy PM David Lammy quickly ramped up the tensions even further with an extraordinary jibe about Mr Farage 'flirting with the Hitler Youth'.

Asked on the BBC after the speech if Mr Farage was racist, Mr Lammy said he was not going to 'play the man' before adding: 'I will leave it the public to come to their own judgments about someone who once flirted with the Hitler Youth when he was younger.'

An incredulous Reform source said they had 'no words' to describe the Cabinet minister's intervention.

The innocent minded among you might doubt that this is Assassination Bait.

But, dig this: While the British communists are chumming the waters with Assassination Bait, they're simultaneously slashing the funding for Farage's personal security team by 75%.

Why not 100%? Well, because that would be too obvious. When he gets shot, they'll be able to say "we paid for some security."

Biden did the same thing to Trump, claiming he would destroy the US and imprison the population while giving him the D-team of Secret Service agents with zero counter-snipers.

You think this is all a coincidence?

Reform UK is accusing Prime Minister Keir Starmer's government of "stochastic terrorism" after the Home Office cut Nigel Farage's taxpayer-funded security by 75 percent. Spokesman Zia Yusuf said Wednesday the move, paired with coordinated attacks labeling Farage and his supporters "racist," has put their safety at risk.

Key Details:

Reform UK spokesman Zia Yusuf said the Home Office "decimated" Farage's protection team weeks before what he called a campaign of "unprecedented, vicious, and coordinated demonisation" from senior government officials.

Donors have reportedly stepped in to privately fund additional security for Farage, who has survived several past attacks and continues to draw large crowds on the campaign trail.

Yusuf accused Starmer and his ministers of engaging in "stochastic terrorism," a term describing the public vilification of an individual to provoke random violence against them. He warned: "If anything were to happen, we would hold Keir Starmer squarely responsible."
