No, he's just pining for the fjords.

[skend04]

So we saying the Abu wasn't the guy or are Ch4 being racist and saying all black guys with a beard and shaved head look the same?

I think you'd find it hard to prove you been defamed as a terrorist when you're a convicted terrorist inside on terror charges.

England fans booing the German Anthem, classless bastards.

It's quite a leap from what he was convicted of to being falsely accused of what happened today though? I think he'd have an argument.

You honestly think his reputation has been damaged because for an hour it was mistakenly reported he was the murderer?

Probably well chuffed and brightened up a dull day 

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Maybe.

 

Do you honestly think that there's no difference between being shouty and raising money on the one hand and stabbing a police officer dead and driving a car into a load of people?

 

I wouldn't confidently say he's suffered serious damage to his reputation, but nor would I confidently rule it out.

Chilling 4chan post written day before London attack appears to predict terror incident

 

The post included specific reference to the location of the attack

 

A post on an online forum appeared to predict the terror attack at Westminster, according to internet users.

 

At least one man ran over members of the public with a car before trying to stab and injure police officers. He was shot by armed police next to the Houses of Parliament.

 

The attack may have been flagged by a post on the 4chan forum, which contained references to its exact location. It also contained a photo, taken from the internet, of two guns

 

It isn't known that the post was anything to do with the attacker, and it made no explicit reference to the date or nature of the incident. But many internet users are pointing out the chilling coincidence of the two events.

 

The reference to the location was posted through a strange code. Alongside the picture, the user posted a series of dashes and dots – when translated into Morse code, they pointed to a URL, and at that page was the exact co-ordinates for the attack

 

Those co-ordinates pointed to Westminster Bridge, which the attacker drove over. Specifically, they are located at the side where Parliament is located, which is where the shooting took place.

 

The post went live on the afternoon of 21 March, almost exactly 24 hours before the attack. It featured a note written on paint that included that date, making clear that it had been posted to 4chan's "Politically Incorrect" board.

 

One user followed the code and posted "Big Ben?", just minutes after it went online

Raising money for terrorists, not for Red Nose Day. I'd say someone who raised money for terrorists implicitly supports terrorists and therefore his reputation could not be damaged by being mistaken for one.

I'll make it easier.

 

Money. Shouty.

Stabby. Drivey.

 

Arguably differenty?

[Lee909]

Sorry but i think its bollocks saying one is worse than the other

One is a mouthy arsehole that does not have the balls to go with his convictions and do the actual attacks himself the other actually does them

Both scum and fuck both of them

Ha ha I just love this. The man who buys the bomb is less guilty than the man who sets it off?

[njackets]

Anyone skimming through the last page would think racist England fans had just killed a Muslim outside Parliament.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Nobody has mentioned levels of guilt or wrongness.

 

Just that they're two very different acts. And that there's potentially an argument of damage to reputation to be falsely accused of one event even if you've been convicted of another event.

 

Can you lot even read properly?

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

No they wouldn't.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

But, hey, I'm sure the quick and rather sheepish backtracking by Channel 4 News was because they were just a little bit concerned that they'd hurt Abu's feelings.

 

Nothing to do with quickly dispensed legal advice, or shit like that. Cos some bloke who flogs gas knows better.

 

Chortle!

[Guest Pistonbroke]

No they wouldn't.

 

Of course they wouldn't. Plus the post I made about the England fans was meant for the Other Football thread but I mistakenly put it in here, left it as it was as you would think the cunts would give it a rest when other countries have offered their solidarity. 

[njackets]

No they wouldn't.

Maybe not, but they'd defo think racist England fans had just killed someone called Abu Izzadeen outside Parliament whilst singing songs about beating Germany in the war!

That sounds more like you fantasising
