Met police are erasing the third victim of the Golders Green stabbing

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

He went to an area where he would find Jewish people, hedidn’t just walk outside his front door and stab random people. How could it not be a targeted attack?

I can never decide if people just have no reading comprehension or are just stupid or rage baiting lately

From the BBC website -
A man has appeared in court charged with attempted murder after attacking two Jewish men in Golders Green, north London, and another man in the south of the city.
Feel better now?

No. One person is stabbed in a personal dispute, two were targeted for terror/ racist reasons.
Not one person has suggested that the first one "doesn't matter"? Do you have a link to that claim?

It's quite extraordinary.

The police have neglected to mention him.

Starmer fails to mention him in his statement.

The media have failed to mention him.

It ruins the narrative of the attack being exploited to suit the government.

It is being used as an excuse to prevent marches and impede civil liberties.

This individual was known to Prevent. He was mentally ill. This is a failure of police and policy, and they want to capitalise on it to further their own aims.

If action had been taken when a mentally ill man stabbed a roommate, would he have been able to carry out subsequent racist assaults?

What is needed now is more police available to respond, making people feel safe to go to school and synagogue. Not a massive campaign of legislation to further the government's own ends.

Same (ie mentioned / discussed) by the BBC yesterday.

A bit of all of that it would appear.

That’s not you “getting it straight” no one has said he doesn’t matter.

But it’s going to be different in the news stories, just as it is with shooting victims etc in America where there is a shooting at home that then goes into a school.

it also has been mentioned in the media, some of it has been posted in this thread

I think you'll find - with evidence on this thread - that the media, and the police have indeed mentioned him.

Probably a combination of of all three.

Just like someone can be mentally unwell and also racist.

Rubbish. Attacks that are also hate crimes are of greater national interest than those related to personal disputes. Violence against the Jewish community is rightly prominent in the news at present. This story is big precisely because of that.

This doesn’t mean that the Jewish victims of these attacks are inherently valued more as individuals than the other victim.

All the facts have been widely reported by all reputable, easily accessible news sources. He's been charged with three attempted murders. Two were racially motivated attacks. These made the news because anti-semitism is a big topic at the moment. The other was a personal attack that happened earlier. It only came to light after the others had already hit the news. There is no conspiracy to hide anything 🤷

The OP’s ‘take’ is currently big on Facebook, I’ve just noticed.

Quelle surprise.

Okay? I’ve barely used Facebook since about 2015

Can't see any progress happening in this thread - tulippetals will dismiss anything that doesn't fit her very dubious "narrative".

Because "man carries out apparently targeted attack on a religious minority" is a bigger headline than "man stabs his mate", even if it happens to be the same man doing both.

People (sadly) try to murder people known to them all the time. While (more happily) religiously motivated attacks on strangers are actually quite rare. So the second is a bigger deal than the first.

If he had only attacked the guy he knew then it wouldn't be in the news at all. He if he only attacked the Jews then the story would be just as big as it is.

I don't see why him stabbing someone he knew means that going on to stab strangers wasn't racially motivated.

He stabbed his first victim in a personal dispute then he specifically travelled to Golders green to pick his last 2 victims. If it didn't matter to him who he stabbed, why travel there? He could have stepped outside his home and stabbed anyone on the street.

Saying his later victims were stabbed because he wanted to stab Jewish people doesn't mean his first victim is less important.

Edited to add - how many people must he have passed on his journey from South London to Golders Green? He could have stabbed any of them. Why did he not? If not because he wanted to be sure he was stabbing Jewish people?

So you don’t find it suspicious that the third victim is being entirely erased because it paints a very different picture?

No, because the third victim is only being "entirely erased" in your fictitious account.

Well it was on the bbc and he was charged with all 3 and every news outlet has stated that he attacked his friend of 20+ years, right before he went on his terrorist attack.
It is completely understandable that the terrorist attack on 2 Jewish men just for being Jewish is being spoken about more than him attacking his friend.
This has nothing to do with his friends religion and everything to do with the terrorist acts he committed where he attacked random stranges because they are Jewish.

Again. The met police are ignoring him. Kier Starmer ignored him. The media are ignoring him.

Third victim isn’t being ‘entirely erased’ at all, as the multiple media reports linked to on this thread show.
