Rampant Government-Sponsored Islamophobia in London: Surface-to-Air Missile Systems Installed Throughout the City

Remember, we used to opine about how the Olympics were a time when the whole world dropped their daily grievances and celebrated the brotherhood of man, as we participated in the joy and beauty of Sport for Sports sake?

Yeah, that no longer exists.

Oh my, rampant islamophobia!
"It is the biggest peacetime security operation the country has ever seen" Uh, it ain't peacetime. Get a cluebat.

  • Rapier and high-velocity missile systems are being installed in Leytonstone, Bow, Blackheath Common and Oxleas Wood, Enfield and Epping Forest
  • It is the biggest peacetime security operation the country has ever seen

  • It is a sight which many older generations thought they would never see in this country again.
    Soldiers in residential tower blocks and green open spaces were yesterday pictured installing surface-to-air missiles at six sites across the capital, a show of strength not seen in this country since the Second World War.

    This is sad.

    Doesn't the religion of peace make the world a lovely place!

    As I always say,

    IT'S JUST ANOTHER ONE OF THE LITTLE INCONVENIENCES WE HAVE TO PUT UP WITH FOR THE PLEASURE OF LIVING WITH ALL THE MODERATE MUSLIMS HERE IN THE WEST.

    The headline was pretty funny though, I must say.

    What good are SAMs against a ground assault, a homicide bomber, a Munich style attack?

    I can certainly understand increased foot security, increased scanning, profiling for heaven's sake. But this seems way over the top to me.

    MR,
    That''s a good point. I don't know why I did not think of this.

    What the hell are they expecting, and why are they expecting such a thing?

    What have they heard?
