Terrorists kill and maim on London Bridge

London Bridge at night

The UK got hit by terrorists again:

June 3, 2017

An unmarked van drove into pedestrians on London Bridge in the British capital late Saturday evening, striking a number of people. There also were reports that attackers stabbed people near the scene of the road terror.

British police responded in force to what they described as a “major security incident” and closed the bridge and nearby roads to all traffic. Subway service to London Bridge station also was halted by underground railway officials, and armed police were patrolling the area.

Prime Minister Theresa May was briefed by security officials and monitoring the situation, her office at 10 Downing Street said. In Washington, President Donald Trump’s press secretary, Sean Spicer, said U.S. security officials were following the events in London closely, and that Trump was up to date on the details.

The carnage occurred near the southern end of London Bridge, which crossed the River Thames between central London and a South London neighborhood known as Borough Market. Police tweeted that they are also responding to an incident in the Vauxhall area.

Many people witnessed what took place and gave their accounts to police and news reporters. Most said they saw a white van heading toward Borough Market veer off the roadway at high speed and drive into pedestrians; about five to eight people who had been walking across the bridge were hit and thrown to the pavement.

Other witnesses said they saw people who had been stabbed in a restaurant close to Borough Market. https://www.voanews.com/a/london-bridge-incident/3885732.html

June 3, 2017

Three men jumped out a white van after it mowed down pedestrians on London Bridge and began stabbing people with “12-inch knives,” it has been reported.

Police confirm there has been more than one fatality in the attacks.

A man was taken into custody by police who warned those nearby to move away.

There have also been reports of another attack in Borough Market after bodies were seen lying on the ground by horrified witnesses.

The white van is said to have veered off the road and struck “15 or 20” people after 10pm. There are also unconfirmed reports of stabbings and gunfire – with one witness reporting that she saw three people whose throats were cut. …

It is feared that the incident is terrorist-related.

It comes just two months after terrorist Khalid Masood mowed down pedestrians on the city’s Westminster Bridge before stabbing an unarmed policeman in a deadly rampage. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/breaking-news-terror-attack-fears-10555735

Yes, this looks like another terrorist incident. It was deadly and terrifying–that makes it a terrorist incident. Presumably we will learn later if there is a connection to Islam for any of the terrorists.

Terror is prophesied for the end time descendants of the children of Israel–and this includes the UK:

25 The sword shall destroy outside; There shall be terror within (Deuteronomy 32:25)

12 “Cry and wail, son of man; For it will be against My people, Against all the princes of Israel. Terrors including the sword will be against My people; Therefore strike your thigh. (Ezekiel 21:12)

25 Because you disdained all my counsel, And would have none of my rebuke, 26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes, 27 When your terror comes like a storm, And your destruction comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you. (Proverbs 1:25-27)

5 Also they are afraid of height, And of terrors in the way (Ecclesiastes 12:5).

6 You have forsaken Me,” says the Lord,
“You have gone backward.
Therefore I will stretch out My hand against you and destroy you;
I am weary of relenting!
7 And I will winnow them with a winnowing fan in the gates of the land;
I will bereave them of children;
I will destroy My people,
Since they do not return from their ways.
8 Their widows will be increased to Me more than the sand of the seas;
I will bring against them,
Against the mother of the young men,
A plunderer at noonday;
I will cause anguish and terror to fall on them suddenly. (Jeremiah 15:6-8)

Terror within is referring to terror coming from people living within a nation.

While many political, media, and other leaders refuse to believe the Bible, the reality is that those of us who believe the Bible realize that terrorism is prophesied–and we keep seeing it.

There is likely to be a lull related to some type of a peace deal (cf. Daniel 9:27; see also The ‘Peace Deal’ of Daniel 9:27), future terrorism will hit not only the UK, its Anglo-Saxon descended allies, and the USA, but also many in Europe (cf. Daniel 11:40-43) and elsewhere.

The only real solution will be the Kingdom of God. Pray for it to come (Matthew 6:10; see also Prayer: What Does the Bible Teach?).

An hour of so after posting all of this, the following was reported:

June 3, 2017

British police are responding to three incidents across London following reports of a vehicle slamming into pedestrians on the London Bridge. Police say there is more than one fatality following the three separate incidents, the BBC reports.

A witness who was on the bridge told the BBC she saw a speeding van veer onto the pavement, striking as many as six people. Police then responded to reports of incidents at two more sites. Live updates are below:

8:07 p.m. ET: Police say they are working with Royal Naval Lifeboat Institution to evacuate public from the London Bridge incident.

7:51 p.m. ET: Metropolitan Police tweeted the London Bridge and Borough Market incidents were declared terrorist incidents. The Vauxhall stabbing is not connect to the incidents, they tweeted. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/london-bridge-british-police-respond-to-incident-close-bridge/

So, yes, this is now being recognized as at least two terrorist incidents.

Notice also the following which I saw online another a bit later:

A BBC eyewitness saw three men stabbing people indiscriminately, shouting “this is for Allah”. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-06-03/van-rams-pedestrians-serious-incident-london-bridge-knife-attack-follows-live-feed

This is no surprise as the entire story sounded like Islamic terrorism. Sadly, terror from those claiming Islam will continue.
