Counterterrorism police arrested three more suspects in the Woolwich murder of a British soldier: one man in southeast London, and two others south of the city. Prime Minister Cameron will launch an initiative to “[deal] with extremism at its root, as opposed to just tackling criminal violent extremism,” including preventing the dissemination of hate speech and telling moderate Muslim groups to be more proactive in condemning terrorism. Extremist cleric Omar Bakri called one of the attackers a “hero” for staying at the scene of the murder.
