I am actually horrified. A third, Muslim, man was stabbed in the attack but he isn’t being mentioned anywhere. How is this allowed?!

If he’d just stab someone in a personal dispute it likely wouldn’t have made the national news whereas if he had just stabbed the Jewish people it likely would.

It’s not that people who are stabbed don’t matter it’s just what grabs the headlines.

It’s like when school shooters kill their parents then go to kill at the school, it’s reported as a school shooting as that’s the main headline that grabs people. People can often forget there was a killing elsewhere.

This was pp’s post:

'What is the narrative? That Jewish people have been subject to racially aggravated attacks in this country at a far higher scale per head of population than any other group?'

Did you miss the highlighted parts? Is pp’s statement still inaccurate if you include them?

It can be the supposition. But we need to wait to find out more.

It’s v ch immobile now to use the word “their” in a singular - apparently you shouldn’t assume someone’s gender. It’s a point that’s been discussed move back to the fact the two men had a 20 year relationship

The problem is trying to link anti-Semitism to peaceful protest so you can ban peaceful protest.

Both the perpetrator and his first victim live in supported accomodation for people who have recently left psychiatric inpatient care. The address was not disclosed when he went to court die to this fact ie to protect identity of other residents. There may have been a delay in naming 1st victim due to these confidentiality issues. To say there is an equivalence between the 1st attack and the second , racially motivated hate crime and that the 1st victim is ignored because not Jewish, is stretching things to breaking point.

When someone attacks a long standing friend (in this case 20+ years) it is normally classified as a domestic dispute because of the relationship.

cannot understand what you meant to write.

It is now, and always has been, perfectly correct English to write "their" when referring to a person.

Yes, per capita. Something like almost 9 times as many.

I think he was agreeing with you.

The definition of a terrorist is someone with a clear political or ideological intent, I don"t think you can have that clear intent if you are mentally unwell. This is primarily a mental health incident and about the failure of mental health services in this instance. Even if the individual did have a focus on a certain section of the population for whatever reason that can"t be generalised to the whole country as some people seem to be doing, or used to stop people peacefully protesting against ethnic cleansing and genocide.

It isn’t minimisation though, it’s a distinguishing factor. Whilst it’s terrible that anyone got attacked, the second attack of two men in a religiously motivated terror attack is more news worthy than the stabbing of a man by someone personally known to him for 20 years. But for the link to the terror attack this world have been one of many assaults where the victim and suspect knew each other which happened on the same day. Minimal amounts of probably none of those other assaults would have been reported on, this one was because a person who committed an act of terror had assaulted a person. Known to him.

it’s really not difficult to distinguish the situation, my sympathies lie with anyone experiencing violence, including those who were attacked that day we will never hear about, unfortunately assault is so common most victims go unknown.

I’m not sure why you are trying to misdirect with this.

For anyone wanting to minimise the anti-semitism in this country. A test.
Do you honestly think you’d be more likely to get abuse from walking in a Jewish area as a visible Muslim or walking in a Muslim area as a visible Jew?

The thread is about this. Read the title.

Ah thank you for that, although Pressumably you are the psychiatrist who has examined him and this has been agreed in a court, don’t you have any concerns about breaking your patients right to privacy.

But focussing exclusively on the second and third victims because they are Jewish is equally absurd?

Yea. Only sane people stab Jews.

“A domestic dispute is a verbal or physical altercation between people living in the same household, often involving partners, ex-partners, or family members.’

It's being ignored because it doesn't suit the narative.

The first person he stabbed was a long time friend so would count as domestic as they had known each other for 20 years.
What exactly is your angle for trying to misdirect on this.

Why do so many people on this thread seem to think they know more than the police and security services who are conducting the investigation about the attacker's mental state and his motivations?

The focus was understandably on the terror attack as this has been escalating and it's a concern.
The stabbing of the other person is a concern, but not terror linked.

It's bizarre. It's like the people who get their "news" from tiktok.

What "narrative" would that be?
This claim has been made on this thread many times. What do you mean by it?
