Topic: No Xmas for Jihadi John

[NJ Uncut]

Saw this in Big Work, just... flummoxed. The poster next to it was "good news: the terrorism threat level has been reduced from 'severe' to 'substantial!"

.. with the disclaimer that "substantial" means an attack "is likely". Goody goody gumdrops.

 


So is it ACT - or CDT?

Anyway, thought you might like to know that terrorists are only LIKELY to ruin your Xmas! Not defo nailed on.

Report anyone not celebrating.

Counter-terrorism and Christmas, together at last!

The status was lowered to help the tories in the election - in reality the level is Low

I was so upset that I cried all the way to the government

Anyone who, on the basis of the terrorist thread lowering to merely "likely", finds this - this! - is the good news that pushes them to finally vote Tory, needs to be terrorised

And it's not even Easter!

I'm delighted that there's only a substantial chance I might die.

Jihadi John got exploded and he didn't celebrate Christmas anyway.

Shit innit. At least in the movies dystopias looked fuckin tits. The art direction on reality is wank.

Read it as 'Communists Defeat Terrorism', what a let-down on the re-read.

I would like to wish all the readers of this post a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  In the words of Tiny Tim, God bless us every one and keep safe x

See it, say it, turkey.

We had to do a ludicrous online training course to do with this, which was aimed at people working in publically accessible places (even though my workplace isn't) and I can confirm it was so shit you could do it in half an hour with the sound turned down only half paying attention and still get a little printable certificate at the end that proves you're now apparently trained in terrorism prevention.  I know it's only arse covering but it's still a massive waste of work time that I could have spent on CaB.

So not only are we likely to be blown up, but we have to be grasses as well?!

Your names are all going on the Festive List.

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

Just like artificially setting interest rates at zero I wondered what the value was of setting the terror threat level at ceiling height forever. What they ask the public to do and how to behave is ridiculous.

Last Christmas, I launched a jihad
But the very next day you gave it away.
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special— speshul.

Last Christmas, vowed a fatwa,
But the very next day you gave it away.
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special— speshul.

Once bitten and twice shy,
A spicy shawarma, my oh my.
But you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby
Do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year
It doesn't surprise me
(Merry Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, ‘Allahu akbar,’ I meant it.
Now, I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd Jew me again.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away.
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special— speshul.

Last Christmas…
