Finsbury Park terror attack: Father of four guilty of carrying out murderous attack on Muslims

Posted: 01 Feb 2018 08:01 AM PST

Finsbury Park terror attack: Father of four guilty of carrying out murderous attack on MuslimsA father of four from Cardiff, who became brainwashed against Muslims after watching a BBC drama on the Rochdale grooming scandal, has been found guilty of carrying out the Finsbury Park terror attack. Darren Osborne was convicted of murdering 51-year-old Makram Ali and attempting to murder others, when he deliberately ploughed a hire van into a group of worshippers who had just left a mosque in the Finsbury Park area of north London last June. Osborne, 48, a lone wolf attacker, had tried to claim that the driver had been another man called "Dave", who then mysteriously vanished from the van.  Darren Osborne has been found guilty of murder and attempted murder But he was found guilty after the jury spent just less than hour deliberating its verdict. Osborne, who had denied both charges, nodded and looked around the courtroom as the verdicts were delivered on Thursday afternoon. Makram Ali, who died in the attack, leaves a wife and six children Credit: PA He will be sentenced on Friday morning and the judge will be asked to take account of the fact this was a terrorist act when deciding on the length of the prison term. Woolwich Crown Court had heard how unemployed Osborne, 48, became a "ticking time bomb" after watching Three Girls, a drama based on events in Rochdale, where young girls were raped and abused by a group of predominately British Pakistani men. Video: Moment Darren Osborne ploughed into worshippers He was then "radicalised" within three weeks, after viewing extreme right-wing material online, including social media posts by Tommy Robinson, the former leader of the English Defence League, and Jayda Fransen, the co-founder of the Britain First group. On Sunday 17 June last year, Osborne drove a Citroen Luton hire van from his home in south Wales to London, where he spent several hours scouring the capital for a target. Finsbury Park van attack - How it unfolded Just after midnight, he spotted a group of Muslim men who had gathered on Seven Sisters Road in Finsbury Park to help Mr Ali, who had collapsed after taking ill. Osborne accelerated into the group, driving over Mr Ali and killing him and injuring 12 others. In the van police found a note in which Osborne expressed his extreme racist views and also railed against politicians, referring to Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, as a "terrorist sympathiser" and calling London Mayor, Sadiq Khan, a "disgrace".  Osborne was detained by the crowd and handed to police after carrying out the attack During the trial, Osborne's estranged partner, Sarah Andrews, described how he become radicalised by extremist material he had been viewing online. She said: "The first thing that started it was when we watched Three Girls . I think this may have caused Darren to go on the Internet to research this subject further. Darren has always been very unpredictable man in terms of his temperament and I think the feelings he had after watching has fuelled his unpredictability." Osborne just moments after the terror attack Credit: PA Other family members, including Osborne's mixed race nephew, Ellis Osborne, said there had been no sign of racism prior to last summer. Speaking about the investigation, Commander Dean Haydon, head of the Met's counter terrorism unit, said the speed in which Osborne had been radicalised by material online was extremely worrying. He said: "He has become radicalised in a period of three to four weeks. He was certainly not interested in extreme right wing up until that stage." The scene of the murderous attack in Finsbury Park  Credit: Geoff Pugh He added: "My view around Osborne is that he is a troubled, vile and hate filled individual.  If you go back 30-years, he has a history of violence, a history of alcoholism and drugs abuse, depression, a dysfunctional family background. "Taking all that into account, the first trigger for him on the path to radicalisation was that TV drama documentary. That was the catalyst for him having a hatred for the Muslim community. "From thereafter  he accessed extreme right wing material. He then became obsessed with that material and that sent him into a further spiral of him wishing to carry out an attack." Mohammed Mahmoud, won praise for his actions after the attack Credit: PA After carrying out the attack, Osborne leapt from the van and tried to escape, but was detained by some of the crowd he had targeted. Some of the group began attacking him, but Imam from the nearby Muslim Welfare House, protected him from further attack and handed him over to the police. Darren Osborne was found guilty of murder and attempted murder Credit: Elizabeth Cook/PA Sue Hemming from the CPS said: "Darren Osborne planned and carried out this attack because of his hatred of Muslims. "He later invented an unconvincing story to counter the overwhelming weight of evidence but the jury has convicted him. "We have been clear throughout that this was a terrorist attack, and he must now face the consequences of his actions." One person was killed and another 12 injured in the attack Credit: Neil Hall/Reuters Commenting on the verdict, HOPE not hate's chief executive, Nick Lowles, said: "This case highlights the pernicious nature and danger of online hate and sadly confirms the threat from right-wing extremism, which we have long warned about." Harun Khan, secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain said: "The scenes we witnessed last summer were the most violent manifestation of Islamophobia yet in our country. We cannot be complacent and regard this as a one-off terrorist incident. "We heard during the trial how Osborne was motivated by anti-Muslim groups and Islamophobic tropes not only prevalent in far right circles, but also made acceptable in our mainstream. "The case tells us that we must all exercise caution when tempted to stigmatise any group of people, regardless of colour, creed or community."

We saw this deadly 'Hong Kong' flu coming, but no one could prevent its spread

Posted: 01 Feb 2018 01:04 PM PST

We saw this deadly 'Hong Kong' flu coming, but no one could prevent its spreadIn 1968, scientists discovered a new strain of flu circulating around Hong Kong. The virus, though, didn't stay put. It soon left Asia and turned into a proper pandemic, traveling around the globe and killing one million people worldwide, including 100,000 in the United States that season. The deadly virus struck in the U.S. when it usually does, during winter. That year, "kids didn't care about when Santa came," remembers Susan Donelan, who is now a medical director and assistant professor of infectious disease at Stony Brook University's School of Medicine.  SEE ALSO: This year's flu shot might not stop the virus, but it can fend off the worst symptoms Fifty years later, the Hong Kong flu, known more formally as H3N2, still exists, periodically popping up from year to year.  "Now it's considered one of our seasonal viruses," said Donelan, in an interview.  The Hong Kong flu influenza viruses, magnified 100,000 times.Image: wikimedia imagesBut the Hong Kong flu is an especially infectious strain of the virus. It has the ability to mutate both during and between flu seasons (more so than other strains), rendering our preventative vaccines less effective. "By the time we're ready for the flu season, the strain has kind of changed itself," Neha Nanda, a hospital epidemiologist and medical director of infection prevention at Keck Medicine of the University of Southern California, said in an interview. "That's why it's a nasty strain." And like most years, scientists knew the Hong Kong flu would make an unwelcome appearance during the 2017-2018 flu season. Doctors predict what flu will hit the U.S., and accordingly, what vaccines to produce, based upon what influenza has been dominant in the Southern Hemisphere — places like Australia.  "Every year we look at the Southern Hemisphere," Shane Speights, dean and associate professor of Medicine at New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine at Arkansas State University, said in an interview. "The Southern Hemisphere dictates what goes into our vaccine."   So, by watching events unfold in Australia in 2017, where the Hong Kong flu was dominant, doctors knew what to expect and prepared as best as they could. But in this strain's typical fashion, it has likely mutated, rendering our vaccines less effective and resulting in the Hong Kong flu's remarkable 2018 spread. #Flu activity continues to increase nationally in the United States. CDC recommends flu vaccination, even if you've already been sick, and early antiviral treatment for people who are very ill OR those who have flu and are at high risk of complications. https://t.co/KHXucF48vi pic.twitter.com/7oJK4qbUp8 — CDC (@CDCgov) January 26, 2018 "The number of people impacted by it [the flu] has been huge," said Nanda. The CDC, as of January 20, reports "widespread" flu activity around the country, including the deaths of 37 children. Even though some of us may have been exposed to H3N2 in previous seasons (for example, the CDC identified six variants of H3N2 during the 2015-2016 season), the exterior of the virus — home to a variety of specific proteins — may have mutated too dramatically for us to have any substantive immunity from this earlier exposure. "The surface proteins change," said Nanda. "Our body may not remember what we experienced two seasons back."  While scientists seasonally do a pretty good job of predicting what will hit the U.S., much less is understood about why strains like the Hong Kong flu wreak havoc for a season or two and then become less dominant or disappear, only to return once again.  "We need a crystal ball," mused Nanda.  WATCH: Paris is flooding and rats are taking cover

Vatican's delicate China mission runs into trouble

Vatican's delicate China mission runs into troublePope Francis is facing a complex row over the Vatican's warming ties with Communist China, which have sparked a new war of words with a Hong Kong cardinal and growing bitterness among some Chinese faithful. Beijing and the Vatican severed diplomatic relations in 1951, and although ties have improved in recent years as China's Catholic population has grown, they remain at odds over which side has the authority to ordain bishops. The Vatican relaunched long-stalled negotiations three years ago and now seems to be nearing concrete steps towards solving the major stumbling bloc of how to designate bishops.

Instagram model Jen Selter removed from American Airlines flight after 'humiliating' row An Instagram fitness model was "humiliated" after being removed from an American Airlines flight following a row with staff. Jen Selter, who has 11 million followers on Instagram, posted footage of her arguing with a pilot and a flight attendant on the delayed flight from Miami to New York on 27 January. "I did nothing wrong but got kicked off the plane," she wrote, adding she had the "worst experience" following a delay which left the aircraft stuck on the runway for two hours.

Shell was boosted particularly by a major recovery in crude oil prices, which tends to ramp up revenues and profits for the entire sector. World oil prices leapt by about 15 percent to finish the year at around $60 per barrel, aided by oil cartel OPEC's efforts to limit its collective production.
