We know now that at least one of the two men arrested in connection with the London subway bombing is a Syrian refugee. There's some stories on the web that say that the other person in custody is also a refugee from Syria, but this seems as of yet unconfirmed. There are also news items that say that the one of the terrorists planting the bomb was under surveillance by Scotland Yard.
Do you realize what this means? First, once again Europe has been attacked by refugees from Syria. Those are just the people who President Trump has wanted to subject to "extreme vetting" and to keep out until a sufficient system for that vetting is in place. For that reason alone, there is very little coverage of the identities and backgrounds of the men arrested in the UK. Second, it means that President Trump's tweet about the bomber being on the radar of Scotland Yard was accurate. Oh, the horror! The media could not possibly tell us that Trump was correct and all the upset about the tweet was not just nonsense but erroneous nonsense. No doubt editors are fainting at the newsrooms of the NY Times and Washington Post just thinking of the prospect of telling America the truth.
Don't worry. They'll be fine. Either they won't report the story or they will bury it on page 41 of the paper.
