Brother of London jihad mass-murderer was paid by UK Govt to ‘fight extremism'
2017-06-07
BLUF: [Geller Report] The brother of the man behind the brutal massacre of seven people in the London Bridge terror attack had actually been paid by police to fight extremism, despite it going on within his own home.

Saad Butt, 29, brother of murderer Khuram, 27, was involved in the Government’s ‘Prevent’ programme set up to counter extremist groups.

His actions are a far cry from his younger brother, who led the three-man death squad who went on a bloodthirsty stabbing frenzy in Borough Market on Saturday night, injuring a further 48 people.

The news has prompted further questions as to how authorities missed Khuram’s bloodthirsty plans when they worked so closely with one of his blood relatives.

He was even being investigated by anti-terror forces in 2015 but was deemed a ‘low priority’ with police saying there was ‘no evidence he was planning an attack’.

#6  From #5's link:

The terrorists, though, have succeeded in turning the police agents sent to spy on them and forcing them to commit suicide attacks to expiate their sins. This has become depressingly familiar; as Ryan Gallagher reported recently, perpetrators already known to the authorities committed ten of the highest-profile attacks between 2013 and 2015.

The terrorists, in other words, are adding insult to injury. By deploying police snitches as suicide attackers, terrorists assert their moral superiority and power over western governments. The message may be lost on the western public, whose security agencies and media do their best to obscure it, but it is well understood among the core constituencies of the terrorist groups: the superiority of Islam turns around the depraved criminals whom the western police send to spy on us, and persuades them to become martyrs for the cause of Islam.


Emphasis added.

#4  Mr. Butt had a last name he could never overcome. He was the butt of jokes in school.

Those on the left will probably defend these boneheads as poor mis-understood immigrants. Screw winning the hearts and minds.

Louisiana congressman and former law officer “Cajun John Wayne” (Rep. Clay Higgins(R)) is known for his tough-talking. Recently, he was asked what to do about the problem of Islamic terrorists; he said: "Kill them all."

Little more than paid source reporting. It all goes to kak when the source becomes a double agent, or goes over the edge himself. Never trust a Muslim or a Russian.
