Ongoing Terror Attacks

Here we go again...

Spanish police have confirmed a rented truck has struck a crowd on a popular tourist street in central Barcelona in what they are calling a “coordinated terrorist attack”, with authorities confirming 13 dead and over 100 injured.

Unfortunately, these radical Muslim terror attacks will continue to ramp up in western nations, due to their Jihad commitment to Allah.

Might as well post this here and keep the bad times rolling.

There was a (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-40978446) knife attack in Turku, Finland today as well. 2 dead, 8 injured. Police shot the suspect in the leg and apprehended him. No word on identity or motive yet. More will hopefully be revealed tomorrow.

Also earlier today, (https://www.rt.com/news/400149-germany-wuppertal-knife-attack/) 1 person killed and 1 injured in a knife-attack in Wuppertal, Germany. Perpetrator still at large.

Goddamn all this shit. :(

It does feel like the wheels are coming off sometimes, doesn't it?

I just want to point out that RT.com is a news network funded by the Russian government and they tend to put a specific spin on German local news stories.
Also the police said there is currently no reason to assume a terror attack: (http://www.bz-berlin.de/deutschland/ein-toter-bei-messerattacke-in-wuppertal)
Unfortunately a knife attack isn't something special. This news hasn't even made it into countrywide newspapers here so far. EDIT: I was wrong, (http://www.spiegel.de/panorama/justiz/wuppertal-mann-stirbt-nach-messerangriff-a-1163573.html) here it is, it just wasn't on the frontpage.

Isis is spending their last most stupid followers in an effort to bolster their flagging spirits from loss on the battlefield. Too bad they don't all try to build bombs and blow themselves up. I wonder when they will run out of stupid fanatics.

Ah, I just went with the first english-language story I found on Google.

Oh no, they got me! To be fair, I did check bbc.co.uk first but couldn't find a report on the German incident, which is why I had to go searching unfamiliar sites for a link.

The stabber in Turku has been identified as a 18-year old Moroccan, and the case is being investigated as an act of terrorism. 5 other people are also being questioned as suspects.

Supposedly the plan was to blow up the Sagrada Família. Or at least do the attack there.

I wonder if this is the start of a new trend. Attacks on churches. Easy targets. Obvious reference to religion and islam, to attack another religion. No innocent bystanders can be killed (why would muslims be inside a church ?) Lots of people close together (like at a pop-concert). It's perfect.

Capture a fuel-transport-truck. Attach some minor explosives. Drive into a Church on Sunday mass. The doors should be big enough for the truck to enter. Detonate the small explosives. Truck goes boom. Simple plan.
