Sadiq Khan not worried about terrorism in London Tube

Recalling his days as a geek

He told Londoners that they'd better get used to terror attacks and today he said of the terrorist bomb on a Tube train, "we will never be defeated."

What does he mean by not being defeated? Not being killed? Winning the war against lunatics with a crazy ideology they get from their Koran? 

The person I'm referring to is Sadiq Khan, the London Mayor and Khan artist.

Like a good politician, Khan condemned the "hideous" terrorism. Well of course he did. What was he supposed to say, "It wasn't their best effort because nobody died this time"? 

At least John 'Hair-plugs' Kerry condemned the attacks when he was Secretary of State "in the strongest possible terms."

What terms Kerry was referring to is anybody's guess. Does he really think terrorists care about the strength of the terms we condemn them with? Words, just words, and they laugh at us.

Khan issued his first set of words after an incident caused panic on a packed rush hour train in Parsons Green, in west London.

Witnesses reported an explosion and a sheet of fire. Twenty-two people suffered burns, one woman was reportedly burned head-to-foot, but nobody was killed so the media didn't make a big deal out of it. 

Social media images showed a flaming bucket in a Lidl bag with what appeared to be wires attached.

The area was evacuated as they confirmed they are treating the incident as terrorism. No kidding.

Mrs. May joined Khan at a meeting of the emergency committee Cobra. Her words, memorized by now, were: "My thoughts are with those injured at Parsons Green and emergency services who are responding bravely to this terrorist incident."

Those are some seriously powerful words. I can imagine they'll scare the crap out of terrorists all over the UK.

Fortunately, English bobbies don't, for the most part, carry guns, so no terrorist will be hurt if captured.

But Sadiq Khan didn't just condemn the "hideous" attack; he "utterly condemned" it.

Khan posted on Facebook:

"Our city utterly condemns the hideous individuals who attempt to use terror to harm us and destroy our way of life. As London has proven again and again, we will never be intimidated or defeated by terrorism."

Just murdered by it.

His cool close:

"I urge all Londoners to remain calm and vigilant." [Especially religious Muslims who can quote the Koran.]

Nothing substantial is being done, not in London, not in Washington.
