Belgast last night - horrific attack - why is this not being reported on BBC/Sky etc?

[MelanzaneParmigiana]

Absolutely shocking details of the injuries inflicted - the BBC minimise it.

Holy shit, that is horrific. That poor child. I am guessing we will see headlines of mental illness.

there’s a video on X. Horrific. Members of the public intervened by the look of it. It’s an attempted beheading, not stabbing.

Look up the Dublin riots. That’s why it’s being downplayed a little bit. I’m in Ireland and it’s headline news on our public broadcaster!

How many threads on this will there be …

The footage is all over the internet.

The attacker stabbed the victim and then attempted to behead him in the street while shouting religious words. The guy was literally trying to slowly saw the victims head off.

They are far right people who want to whip up hatred and division.

So you’re whinging that bbc isn’t reporting it - then when it’s pointed out that they are, they’re not doing it properly. And then when you’re asked for more information you’re just refusing to say…what’s the point, honestly. Get off twitter OP

Well thank fuck I didn't go looking for that. It would've been helpful if the OP had said what was in the video, before directing us all to go and watch it.

That is truly horrendous.

The BBC are a joke. Completely minimising a brutal attack.

Thank you for summarising - that is horrific.

like a PP - thank god I didn’t go looking for more information because the op is vague posting. Belgast attack indeed

The attacker tried to hack the victim’s head off, for those asking if it was more than a stabbing.

That it was a religious fanatic (going by the reports of what the attacker was saying), attempting to cut a man's head off in the street?

They literally quote descriptions of it as a 'brutal', 'savage', 'horrific' and 'barbaric' attack.

So you're actually minimizing it compared to the BBC.

Fucking hell. I don't use X & I certainly wasn't going to watch a video.

How old is the victim?

were they known to each other?

I just looked. It’s on the BBC news homepage.

But what are the other pieces of information they are trying to hide?

WHAT! Omg

You do realise Elon Musk who owns X has a political agenda OP ? And would like nothing more than to see the UK go into some sort of civil unrest ?
Instead of managing such appalling situations efficiently but calmly.
Any news you get from X will be written in such a way to whip up moral outrage. It is done like that on purpose.

Thank you. It hasn’t shown up on any of my algorithms and I didn’t want to actively search for the video.

The bbc aren’t reporting the gory details. That’s all. And tbh I don’t particularly want to know the details or watch the video.

“Open your eyes”

The unfiltered video (for all its faults on being shared so much and the horror of seeing it), shows that this isn’t a simple knife stabbing and in fact a man shouting in a foreign language was gouging out the eyes of a young male and trying to behead him.

Those are the facts whether you like Musk or not.

Bloody hell. Sounds horrific.

There will be unrest when the full details come out . As for those talking about stoking division and hatred I have news for you … it’s already here .

🎶 don’t look back in anger 🎶

The video was horrific. Guy just sawing at the boy’s neck, the victim seemed to be bleeding from his eyes? Would be surprised to hear he made it honestly

This isn’t even the first beheading by migrants. Was a migrant a few years ago in Ireland that went around catfishing gay men and beheading them.

Decline is a choice, and your betters have chosen this for you.
