To think the authorities covered up this terrorist attack in France.

Last week in France a group of muslims attacked a bus full of people with a bomb, it appears that the authorities and media have failed to report on it which in the current climate is really strange, the video of a group of muslims attacking a bus full of people with an bomb went viral on social media and it appears the media are only now reluctantly reporting on it?!?!? Is this the new normal for Europe?

The Japanese murders were top story on bbc news. With follow ups in the days following.

That's because it was an individual in Japan, Asia.

I don't see your point Tbh.

I don't do hashtags so I don't see those responses, I just watch news.

I guess they don't want to give too much publicity to these things as that's what they thrive on plus, cynically, it would put you off going there on holiday and therefore hit them in the pocket.

I think there is quite enough going on in the world today without throwing paranoid conspiracy theories into the mix.
Disaffected French youth of Northopaedic African background have rioted and had a fraught relationship with police for years.
And "a group of Muslims" is a rather loaded way of putting it.

Phew, good to know this is just standard everyday behaviour then! I thought by watching the video that it displayed behaviour more befitting a third world shit hole but apparently it's normal! Just another example of my backwardness not understanding this example of cultural enrichment.

Glad we could clear that up Grin

The japan killings have been on sky news app (front page and world news); initial news report, subsequent arrest and charge of suspect.

Yes, but your just ignorant like I once was, as other posters have educated me on, that attack in Japan was "abnormal" while a gang of "Disaffected French youth of Northopaedic African background" (remember not to call them muslims) blowing up a bus while shouting Allah akbar is a mundane, every day event in 2016 Europe, do you see?

Are you being deliberately dense?

I agree with throckenholt - both terrorists and these idiots who burst into schools etc and start killing kids see this as their way to become famous and achieve notoriety.

Although I feel that things need t be reported, giving great detail, and allowing videos of horrific killings to be made public is just playing into their hands - and giving other deranged tw*ts ideas.
