But just to highlight the fact that they are not just picking on Islam they announce that the threat from 'extreme right-wing terrorism' was also growing and four plots had been disrupted since March last year.

Would they be four planned peaceful marches of protest?

why would extreme rightwing terrorist plots be peaceful marches? Understanding plain English might be helpful here.

No. Don't know what the question is ?

// extreme right-wing terrorism //

The clue might be the word ‘terrorism’.

Though not as common as muslim terrorism, there have been murderous attacks by far right fanatics, so it would be niave to completely ignore that threat.

jno
Simply because we do not know what they class as 'extreme rightwing terrorist plots'.

These extreme rightwing (far right) marches certainly terrorise both the Left and Islam.

No. They would be attacks, not protests or marches.

[Gromit]

There have been many peaceful(ish) marches by far right groups in the UK. They are never classed as terrorist plots.

Only last week they were scaling the gates at Downing street.

If a similar mob had been muslims, you’d have been all over it.

What his colour has got to do with it, plus the fact that this individual is mentally ill.

“white supremacists” are a terrorist grouping same as “muslim fanatics” are.

If their terrorist agenda is based on their skin colour and not their religion, then their colour is relevent.

[dannyk13]

AOG 'white supremacist' is a description of what he is, not what colour he is,but I suppose you already knew that.

[sp1814]

Why is a far right protester attacking gay people?

[jackthehat]

He's a 'right-wing terrorist' and fits the description of having formulated a plot which was disrupted.

Wasn't that what you wanted?

/// AOG 'white supremacist' is a description of what he is, ///

No, it is the description that the BBC have chosen to call him.

From the report there is no mention that he was preparing to carry out attacks on none whites.

[Baldric]

White supremacy or white supremacism is a racist ideology based upon the belief that white people are superior in many ways to people of other races and that therefore white people should be dominant over other races.

/// Why is a far right protester attacking gay people? ///

Well first he didn't attack anyone, and secondly he was bi-sexual who was ashamed of himself.

Due to his sentence, he was mentally ill.

[sp1814]

Ah...another ‘mentally ill’ terrorist.

[sp1814]

It has to be asked...if this young savage hated himself - why did he plan to kill other gay people?

Would it not have made more sense for him to kill himself?

[sp1814]

//Stables was found guilty of preparing an act of terrorism, threats to kill and possessing explosives.//

I think his mistake may have been to post his plans on a public forum (Facebook).

One of the things that helps the police and security services is that some potential terrorists are as dumb as a box of hair.

Just as a person cannot be called a bricklayer until they have laid a brick, neither can a person be called a terrorist until they have actually carried out an act of terrorism.
