So Golders Green attack not terrorism, but Starmer still raised ‘terror alert’

The Golders Green attacker Essa Suleiman has been charged with attempted murder and not terrorism.

London’s Metropolitan Police charge Essa Suleiman with attempted murder after a stabbing attack in Golders Green. The incident follows the antisemitic attack that raised Britain’s terrorism threat level.https://t.co/cKx923lIHw

Rightly so, since Suleiman had been discharged from a mental health unit just before the attack.

Channel 4 News has learned the Golders Green attacker left a psychiatric hospital run by South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust in recent days.

More tonight at 7pm.

The discharge of a man clearly still struggling with ill health, speaks volumes about Labour’s attrition of the NHS. Many hospital trusts have been forced to fill doctor positions with non-doctors, such as the Maudsley trust.

@Channel4News We’ve been warning @wesstreeting about @MaudsleyNHS for years .

When you have Dr substitutes such as physician Assistants managing these vulnerable patients instead of psychiatrists this is the result .

Was earlier attack on police and their dog ‘antisemitic’?

Further research shows that Suleiman is also being charged with attempted murder for an attack in Southwark earlier the same day. The area is not predominantly Jewish. This very detail is, somehow, absent from BBC and other mainstream media headlines, even if you tailor your Boolean search.

Suleiman appears to have a record of knife attacks. This includes stabbing two police officers and a dog almost twenty years ago:

Can we stop claiming it was an “antisemitic attack” please. Same mental health case previously stabbed two police officers and a police dog in 2008. Was the dog Jewish too? So please stop LYING. https://t.co/EmGdyIXFKt

Despite this, Keir Starmer’s functionaries have raised the ‘terror threat’ level to severe. His home secretary Shabana Mahmood has — of course — used this as cover to claim that anti-genocide marches are “stirring up hate against Jews.”

Mahmood also plans to tighten Starmer’s already anti-democratic, anti-human rights protest laws. Apparently too many people are opposing Israel’s crimes too often – and she lied that the protests include hate crimes:

Hon Secretary Shabana Mahmood says Palestine marches are stirring up hate towards Jews.

“There are too many instances when hate crime is committed.

“And the scale of their protests – the repeat nature of the protests – is intimidating.”

In fact, the only violence and hate at anti-genocide marches is perpetrated either by police, or by pro-Israel counter-demonstrators.

‘Surprisingly’, the government didn’t take the opportunity to crack down on Islamophobia or Zionist racism — or to raise the terror alert. Neither did the January 2026 stabbing — to death — of a Muslim man during Ramadan. Nor did the racist rape of women whose attackers thought they were Muslims, which barely made the front pages.

Keir Starmer has no interest in even speaking out against the terrorism of the Israeli apartheid colony. He will however exploit any excuse to further his war on British people’s rights to protest Israeli war crimes.

The Golders Green attack was certainly violent, as was the police’s response, but it was no act of antisemitism or terrorism — as the charges today confirm.
