Latest terrorist outrage
ISIS latest caper has resulted in approx 300 people dead.
Burst into a mosque, set off a bomb, then shot at people trying to escape, including incoming ambulances.
Absolutely shocking.
Strangely though, I’m not seeing #jesuisegypt trending, profile pics changed to the Egyptian flag.
Katie Hopkins and Tommy Robinson are strangely silent.
Why is that I’m wondering?

Re: Latest terrorist outrage
Half the idiots that are outraged because it's fashionable haven't got a clue about the people that die daily at the hands of these wankers all over the world. Only give a **** if it's new York Paris or London.

Nor the starving millions in Yemen due to a food and medicine blockade by Saudi Arabia, in fact are the media even reporting it?

So true, add in the 50 killed in Nigeria and the 20 killed in Iraq this week and it's been a much deadlier week than the lone wolf attacks we've seen in London and New York.
It's also been under reported in the media, whilst the BBC were covering the Egypt attacks, they broke off for the Oxford Circus event. OK, it was closer to home, but it was quickly apparent it was not terror related. Didn't stop Radio 5 devoting the remainder of their news hour talking to people who were crying but saw/heard nothing.
Last month's attack in Mogadishu killed 350 people. News coverage, scant.

They’ve been waging their own war for 3 years mate. On one hand we have people getting outraged because Britain involve themselves in troubles over that part of the world, and now we have the same people getting outraged because British people are not as outraged about attack’s over there than they are in this country?!?!

Shock horror. Radio station gives priority to news in its own country.

That last sentence..
Scary how often these types of things are happening in African countries.
Quite a lot is reported on Reddit, I've not read a newspaper or watched the news for so long I can't remember.

Re: Latest terrorist outrage
If the media reported on every single terrorist incident then we'd hear about nothing else. There are practically daily attacks in areas where it's expected daily so sadly isn't really "news" anymore. This incident was more ferocious than usual hence why we're hearing about it.
The reason people go crazier if it happens closer to home is because it's not only more newsworthy to them but also because it's not expected to happen around here. I understand why the media and people react more when it happens here but I'd also encourage them to acknowledge that it happens a lot in other parts of the world, hence why I've never changed my avatar to a French or Belgian or German flag. That gets tiresome really quickly.

The changing of avatars is a load of bollox, like most social media.
Great post by the way.
