7 arrested in Suspected Iranian Islamist Terror Plot in The UK

According to conservative warrior Pamela Geller, “at least seven Muslim terrorists were arrested in counter-terrorism ops across England, thwarting a terror plot targeting a specific premises.”

Geller cites an AP article that states among the arrested suspected are at least four Iranian men. They plotted against a target which has not yet been revealed in London. The suspected terrorists are between the ages of 29 and 46.

Commander Dominic Murphy, head of the force’s Counter Terrorism Command, said police are still working to establish a motive, “as well as to identify whether there may be any further risk to the public.”

Three Iranian men were also arrested in an unrelated investigation in London. Britain’s domestic intelligence agency has warned of a growing Iranian terror threat in England.

Already in March 2024, Pouria Zeraati, a presenter at a Farsi-language television station which was critical of the current Iranian government or “Islamic Republic”, was stabbed outside his home in London. Two men were later arrested in Romania and charged with the attack.

The UK’s overall terror threat remains substantial.

All of the suspected Islamist terrorists arrested are currently in police custody.

This highlights the growing threat from Iran and its proxies as well as the need for extreme vetting across the Western Hemisphere.

Despite propaganda, immigration is not always a good thing and open borders are always a bad thing.

In order to properly protect from Islamist terrorism, some have advocated for a travel ban across the West from Islamist countries that pose a threat to the West.
