Manchester Arena jihad attacker ‘did NOT act alone’

Police believe that the Manchester jihadi did have accomplices — aside from Allah and his Prophet, that is.
Note, too, the reference to the bomb being funded by a “loan” from the British taxpayer — not much chance of calling that one in.

Manchester Arena attacker ‘did NOT act alone’: Terrorist carried his bomb around city centre for hours before targeting Ariana Grande gig as police reveal they’ve found explosives at a ‘number of addresses’

• Suicide bomber Salman Abedi detonated device at Ariana Grande concert
• He killed 22 people, including seven children, in the shocking attack in May
• Police revealed today that they do not believe the 22-year-old acted alone
• Investigator says Abedi wasn’t part of ‘large network’, but more arrests likely

By Richard Spillett, Crime Correspondent For Mailonline. July 7, 2017:

Manchester Arena suicide bomber Salman Abedi did not act alone and carried his bomb around the city for hours before blowing himself up, police believe.

Anti-terror officers investigating the attack found explosives at a number of addresses around the city during raids after the attack, they revealed today.

Abedi, 22, detonated his bomb in the foyer of an Ariana Grande concert in May, killing 22 people, including seven children, and injuring 250.

Greater Manchester Police are currently working with authorities in Libya to speak to the bomber’s brother, Hashem, who is being held by a militia in the North African country.

Investigators are also looking into whether Abedi financed his bomb-making through a student loan.

Salman Abedi killed 22 and injured 250 when he set off a bomb in the busy foyer of Manchester Arena. Police said today that they do not believe he acted alone

It emerged today that police have recovered explosives from properties in Manchester. He milled around for hours in the city centre before making his way to the venue for the attack

The explosion ripped through the arena’s foyer as thousands of fans, mostly young girls and their parents, were leaving the venue following the performance.

DCS Russ Jackson, head of counter terrorism policing in the North West, said today that police were now clear on Abedi’s movements in the run-up to the attack, they knew the make-up of the bomb and where parts were obtained.

He said: ‘There were a number of opportunities he would have had to detonate the device.

‘On that evening, we’ve got him at different points in Manchester. That’s not all going to crowded places, but he’s got it in public places, at different points, with the the backpack on.’If we assume it’s all primed and ready to go – and that would be a reasonable working assumption – there there were different points he could have done it.

‘He’s clearly gone to different locations. We’re never going to get into this man’s mind. Our assessment is that he’s targeted the Arena. He wasn’t looking for somewhere else that evening.

‘He was out in the early part of the evening. The best we can say is for several hours before.’

Police carried out a number of raids in the days after the attack but have previously suggested Abedi acted alone. A total of 21 people have now been arrested, of which twelve people have been released without charge.

Ms. Geller, I’m sure you, like me are surprised he had accomplices? LOL -sarcasm.

More Muslims = More jihadi attacks

They are so vicious they do not even spare christian Aid worker who was helping the “refugees ” settle in http://bit.ly/2rr9tGh

And the case was sealed from public airing under obama and his minions when it occurred to prevent Americans from waking up to the jihadi brutality.

So what will be done with this information? Assert that this is not islam, those saying so are islamophobic?

Crazy, nobody noticed a weird looking Muslim guy with a giant blue suitcase just roaming aimlessly?
So sad that this is just a small taste of what’s to come for all of Europe! Get ready it could be any day any hour any minute. You basically just need to stay shuttered in your house now your entire country is turning into a huge no go zone! Danger lurks around every corner.

I dont know about Britian but in the US the reaction to islamic terror is to take in more moslem refugees and then have the left and the media make excuses for the poor little moslems. Trump is saving us.

I wonder how many other “lone wolf” attacks were in actuality planned and aided by Islamist groups. The media tends to minimize the reality that we are at war and Islam is warring against us.
