This is hardly big news. Or, at least, it shouldn't be.

Back in the Eighties, in the days when Britain's biggest threat came from Paddy terrorists rather than Muzzie terrorists, Britain's threat level was also "severe" but it was never reported in the media. Throughout virtually the whole of that decade, Britain's terror threat was "severe", yet it was never even mentioned to the public. It's only in recent years have the government decided to tell the British people what the "terror threat" is.

from link:


1979
Nov. 4, Tehran, Iran: Iranian radical students seized the U.S. embassy, taking 66 hostages. 14 were later released. The remaining 52 were freed after 444 days on the day of President Reagan's inauguration.



{Ahem} USA invades Iran in 1952 and destroys a democratically elected government.





1983
April 18, Beirut, Lebanon: U.S. embassy destroyed in suicide car-bomb attack; 63 dead, including 17 Americans. The Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility.
Oct. 23, Beirut, Lebanon: Shiite suicide bombers exploded truck near U.S. military barracks at Beirut airport, killing 241 marines. Minutes later a second bomb killed 58 French paratroopers in their barracks in West Beirut.
Dec. 12, Kuwait City, Kuwait: Shiite truck bombers attacked the U.S. embassy and other targets, killing 5 and injuring 80.



And Bush later became friends with al-Daawa's Maliki and imposed him as president of Iraq when he should have had him stretching from the end of a rope for his part in those terrorist attacks.




And not surprisingly the link failed to note the attack on the USS Liberty for which its perpetrators should have been hung.

Re: UK raises terror threat to 'severe', Cameron says 'attack likely'

I heard Boris Johnson had a nasty fart that created a smell over most of the UK, they raised the alert believing it was a chemical attack..


Along with Nigel Farage he's the most popular politician in Britain.

A Scottish-born private schoolgirl who travelled to Syria has joined Islamist militants there and urged Muslims in Britain to bring the “battlefield” home, the British Daily Mail newspaper reported Monday.


The case of Glasgow-born Aqsa Mahmood, 20, surfaced as Prime Minister David Cameron announced plans to give police more powers to curb the rising phenomena of Britons joining militants in the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.


The British daily said Police Scotland and security services confirmed they were aware of the case of Mahmood, who in 2013 abandoned a university course to join militants fighting in Syria.


Since leaving to Syria, Mahmood has got married and been tweeting on a variety of subjects including descriptions of her routine life of cooking, cleaning and looking after children.


Her tweets also contain radical messages, including a call for others to copy the September 2014 murder of British soldier Lee Rigby, the April 2013 Boston Marathon bombing in the United States and the deadly April 2014 shooting at the Fort Hood U.S. Army base in Texas.


“Follow the example of your Brothers from Woolwich, Texas and Boston etc. Have no fear as Allah swt is always with the Believers,” Mahmood, who tweets under the name Umm Layth, says in one tweet.


Jihad is not limited to Shaam [Syria], Khurasan, East Africa, Yemen etc. It is a worldwide battle against Kufr [infidels],” Mahmood, whose profile carries a picture of the black flag of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), says in another tweet dated June 27.


“If you cannot make it to the battlefield, then bring the battlefield to yourself,” Mahmood says in another tweet on that date.
