Attack on London

A man was seen driving on the side walk over the west minister bridge. After crashing the car he then got out of the car and started stabbing other people including a police officer. He eventually was shot by the police. He managed to injure 40 and managed to kill 4 others. A tweet from ISIS-affiliated news agency Amaq said the attacker was "a soldier" of ISIS inspired by its message. However, ISIS has provided no evidence for any direct links to the assailant, whom it did not name.

Questions 

Do you think this was an ISIS attack or some other terrest group?

How do you think that London should take this as in beefing up armed forces or stricter security?

I think that this was an ISIS and their man goal was just to show that they are still out there and are still wanting to reak havoc. I do think that that London should take some action but through the government and not through armed forces.

  • I don't know how to distingusih certain terrorist groups from others, but it defineately could have been ISIS. There is no for sure way to keep terrorists out of a country, beefing up security means less freedom for the people.

  • I think that this guy was affiliated with ISIS in some way. I also think that London should consider strengthening their military force or security as ISIS is an elusive group who needs to be stopped. 

  • It may not have been directly related to a terror group such as ISIS. but he may have practiced what these groups do. They should take this very seriously, I would put up cement pillars between the walkway on the bridge and the road next to it.

  • I think that ISIS or another terrorist group could have been behind this because they do these kind of things, and I think that London should start putting more law enforcement and security in different parts of the city and try to secure their borders more to be more aware of who is getting into London.

    • Yes I am wit you on that it was another terrorist group But i do not think it was ISIS because they would have already said that they did but they just said that they might have. Yes they should but they really can not tell who is a terrorist and who isn't and it would be hard even with more security 

  • I wouldn't doubt that ISIS was probably behind it. I think that London should take action and be better prepared for attacks like these. They maybe should try securing their borders or conduct background checks.

    • Yes i feel like it was but with the poles how would the people feel about them and having to walk around them?

  • I could believe that ISIS could be behind this it wouldnt surprise me

    They should definetely beef up military and security to make sure this doesnt happen again

    • Yes know what they are trying to do now a days . But i don't think that beefing the military would really help anything but stir things up
