I awoke to a new year with a surprise that the BBC happened to have an employee at the train station
at the time of the stabbing incident. Usually, any reference to a religious aspect of -what are becoming
regular crimes, are missed out along with a description of the suspect.
As said in another thread, this statement may be part of the slow change occurring in the UK.
Since the Beeb are seen as the vanguard of diversity in this country, this comment from someone
witnessing the incident is something I never reckoned on.
We'll see.
The Daily Star went further, it reported that:
An odd comment to miss out from the BBC's article. But then again, to report this criticism could be viewed
as an alignment of the BBC with Trump's Syrian decision... and we can't have that, can we?!!

The other 'New Year' terrorist-like attack was in Tokyo.
Quote:'...A small van has ploughed into pedestrians celebrating the new year on one of Tokyo's most famous streets.SOURCE:
The man driving the car fled the scene but was later arrested by police for attempted murder.
Nine people were injured, one seriously, by the attacker who struck in the Harajuku fashion district shortly after
midnight. The street, which was sealed off to traffic, was packed with people heading to a shrine for New Year's
prayers.
The 21-year-old driver of the van was identified as Kazuhiro Kusakabe.
Police told broadcaster NHK that he initially told them he had conducted a terrorist act, but then later claimed it
was related to executions. It was not clear if he was referring to a specific execution or capital punishment in
general.

had allegedly planned to set the vehicle on fire...'
