London Under Siege From Islamic Terrorists -- Again UPDATE

London Police have confirmed terrorist attacks on London Bridge and in Borough Market. Authorities have determined a stabbing in Vauxhall has been determined not to be related to the attacks.

The London Bridge attack involved a vehicle ramming approximately 20 people while the Borough Market attack involved multiple attackers with knives stabbing people in a restaurant. Borough Market is a short distance from London Bridge. At this point, only one fatality has been confirmed, but surely there will be more. It does not appear if the persons responsible have been captured or killed.

The attack comes only 11 days after the bombing at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester and two and a half months after the Westminster Bridge attack. I don't think anyone doubts that Islamic terrorists are responsible.

The attack also takes place six days before the UK goes to the polls. Will this attack make voters stick with Theresa May and the Tories or will it drive people to Jeremy Corbyn and Labour. In this respect, this attack reminds me of the 2004 Madrid train bombing which occurred three days before the Spanish general election which saw the incumbent Popular Party ousted in favor of the Socialists. Whatever occurs on June 8th, no doubt security will be tightened at the ballot box. The temptation to carry out attack on election day must be in the back of British authorities' minds.

While President Trump expressed sympathy for the people of London and the UK, he took the opportunity to promote his Muslim Travel Ban. Never mind that San Bernardino and Orlando wee perpetuated by American born Muslims, Given that the Westminster Bridge attack and Manchester attack were committed by persons born in the UK there is a very distinct possibility this is the case today. On the other end of the spectrum we will invariably be told that this has nothing to do with Islam when it has everything to do with it. Clowns to the left, jokers to the right and we're stuck in the middle with the deaths of innocent people.

UPDATE: As this hour, six people have been killed and 30 people have been injured. Police have killed the three attackers.
