TOM SLATER
Islamist terror has returned to Europe. But in truth, it never really went away.
On 23 August, the German city of Solingen was the scene of an all too familiar and barbaric crime.
Issa Al H, a suspected member of Islamic State, slashed at the necks of people in a crowd, as they gathered to celebrate the city’s 650th anniversary.
He killed three people and injured eight more.
Islamic State swiftly took responsibility, calling this murderer a ‘soldier’, and hailing the attack as an act of ‘revenge for the Muslims in Palestine and elsewhere’.
The killer is a Syrian asylum seeker, who was slated for deportation last year to Bulgaria – the place where he had first registered for asylum.
He only managed to stay in Germany because he was not at his asylum accommodation when immigration officials showed up to collect him.
