British Soldier Lee Rigby Murdered Five Years Ago Today

British Soldier Lee Rigby Murdered Five Years Ago Today

Two Islamist extremists butchered Rigby with a machete.

Five years ago today, in broad daylight, two Islamist extremists slaughtered British soldier Lee Rigby with a machete as the young father walked to his barracks in Woolwich.

Rigby’s child was only four days old.

One of the men proudly said on video that he apologizes “women had to witness this today but in our land our women have to see the same.” He also promised that “[Y]ou people will never be safe. Remove your governments, they don’t care about you.”

The killers didn’t back down in court. Professor Jacobson wrote how the MSM in America didn’t cover the trial despite the horrendous attack and appalling attitude of the killers.

Michael Adebolajo professed his love for al Qaeda and considers himself a “soldier of Allah.” He told the court, “I am a soldier and this is war.”

A jury convicted Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale of murder in December 2013. They each received life sentences.

His Memory Helps Others

Out of this tragedy came hope for other victims of domestic violence. His mother Lyn opened the veterans’ retreat Lee Rigby House in October 2017. Today, Lyn announced that the House will now open “its doors to civilian families affected by terrorism in the UK.” From The Daily Mail:

Now she has thrown her body, mind and soul into the retreat in Oakamoor which is jointly funded by the Lee Rigby Foundation and legendary 1970s masked wrestler Kendo Nagasaki – Peter Thornley, 77, now a devout Buddhist, who owns the country estate and was moved by Lyn’s plight.

A house built on the private Grade II listed estate, which opened last autumn, offers a peaceful place for military families who have lost a loved ones, as well as veterans experiencing the effects of PTSD.

Lyn, a founder and trustee, said the bolthole is now being extended to families of victims of home terror attacks. She said: ‘There is no cost to stay here, we just ask people to bring their own food, and it gives them comfort, tranquility and togetherness.’

An ambitious £500,000 project to extend the facility, for which Lyn and her team are now seeking donations and undertaking fund raising for is set to open later this year.

Lyn was gifted a four-bed house in the grounds of Moor Court Hall near Stoke-on-Trent overlooking the retreat by ‘my saviour’ Kendo and jumped at the chance of moving 60 miles from her home of 19 years – Lee’s childhood house – in Middleton, Greater Manchester.

Terrorism in the UK

Unfortunately, terrorism has not gone down in the United Kingdom. Today is also the anniversary of the Manchester attack at an Ariana Grande concert. ISIS claimed responsibility for the bombing that killed 22 people and injured 59 more.

In September 2017, a homemade bomb went off in the London Underground and injured 22 people. Officials arrested Ahmed Hassan and a jury convicted him of attempted murder. He received life imprisonment.

A jury convicted four Muslim men in August 2017 for planning an attack like the one on Lee Rigby. Officials had these men under surveillance at the time:

Pressure is mounting on the Government and security services to explain how a terror cell who dubbed themselves the “Three Musketeers” were able to prepare an imminent attack while under surveillance by police and MI5.

Naweed Ali, Khobaib Hussain, Mohibur Rahman and Tahir Aziz have been convicted of plotting a Lee Rigby-style attack on police or military targets in the UK at the end of a trial dogged by debates over secrecy.

Intelligence officers had believed the plot was in an early stage of planning when they went to bug one of the men’s cars, only to find a machete and homemade pipe bomb hidden under a seat.

Three members of the group had previously been jailed for terror offences but were allowed to mingle in prison, while Hussain and Ali moved next door to each other in Birmingham after being released.

Terrorists killed seven people and injured 48 more on London Bridge and Borough Market in June 2017. Officials arrested 12 people. One man told the media that “one of the attackers had become more extreme over the past two years.” After the attacker justified previous terrorist attacks, the man contacted the authorities, who “didn’t do their bit.”

In March 2017, Khalid Masood, 52, used an SUV to mow people over on Westminster Bridge and killed four people before he drove into the gates outside of Parliament. He exited the car and stabbed an officer to death before armed cops shot him down. Masood was born Adrian Russell Ajao and recently converted to Islam. [Top counterterror officer Mark] Rowley said Masood had many alias. Prime Minister Theresa May told Parliament on Thursday that the police knew about Masood and that he faced numerous charges in the past, including over “concerns about violent extremism.”

And in commemoration, the British bend over even further than they did five years ago.

150 years ago (1857-1858 Supoy Rebellion), these killers would have each been given a one gun (howitzer) salute.

I think we should be looking at the big picture, it would be bad enough just accepting the religious aspect of Islam with all the government, law, and brutal aspects. But when you look at the whole package, and look at what happens as they multiply and and their numbers increase, they start undermining any culture which has been stupid enough to allow them to settle.

If western civilization is going to continue to prosper, we need to leave some peoples in their self created shit holes. They reject the most basic tenets of our civilization, we should reject, no eject them.

I remember that at the time we were talking, tongue in cheek, about the need to enact knife control legislation.
And here we are, liberals proving again that they can bring the most ridiculous fiction to real life.

An average of 16 people per day in Great Britain are attacked by someone wielding a machete. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen in the US, but I don’t recall ever hearing of something that horrific happening here.
While debating gun control and school shootings with a former college classmate on fb, I brought up the statistic of a machete attack every 90 minutes in England. This person who is a teacher said they could at least outrun someone wielding a machete. They couldn’t outrun a bullet. That has got to be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard someone say.

On a separate note, we celebrated the British monarchy all weekend long because of the pompous wedding. Where exactly is the Queen in the midst of this coordinated Muslim invasion of Europe and the UK? A good monarch wouldn’t let their country be sacked by invaders; how pathetic.

    What exactly do you imagine she could do about it? She must stay out of politics and act only on the advice of her elected ministers.

    Mate, this aint the 16th Century any more. The Queen is nothing more than a figure head and has no actual power. Actually, think of her as the Anti-Obama. She avoids making political statements because its not her place to do so..you know..sort of the opposite of what the Black Baby Jesus gets up to!

      I love your characterization of Obama. I cannot stand him, it has nothing to do with skin color.

The Queen has no power, just a heck of a lot of money.

I think she hates it. Every now and then, rarely, got to protect the royalist , she lets out a comment or two…

The Sun has finally set on the Brtish Empire.

It died the day their men stood impotent, staring down at their shoelaces, as one of their soldiers was ambushed and beheaded on the streets of London in broad daylight.

    I think the British Empire died long before then! The backbone was shot out of the Brits in WW1 (slaughtered wholesale) and it only got worse after WW2.

    The death of Lee Rigby was a bookend of the UK as a culture set apart, now dead. Their churches are empty, their leaders are sons of immigrants, their weak suffer abuse, the elderly are dishonored by horrible indignities….and the invaders rape the women and children.

    We should consider that America and Canada are on the same list as the UK is on.

      The globalists ideological mantra deeply infects institutional Australia and New Zealand. However, the populous of both are serendipitously spared the policy extravaganzas of borderless ideology. Natural borders are virtually unassailable, unlike their politicians who were born legs akimbo, to the job title of global eco-Marxist apparatchik. Meanwhile, the best advice the Mother Country can offer is, “run, hide, tell.” It’s hard to tell who will be the last man standing at this juncture.

This is what happens when you disarm the people. Disarming doesn’t just happen physically, it’s mental too.

Interesting — that’s a shame.

Disgusting. Seeing what the Brits have become, I wouldn’t be surprised to find these two satanic spawn on government pensions and paid housing.

Poor guy. May he rest in peace, and may God give comfort and peace to his family.

Their not Islamic extremists. They are the true Muslims.
