nursery worker stabbed in wanstead by 3 girls shouting allah allah

What?

The woman quoted in the ES article was the nursery manager.

What does your link add to this?
It was just about who was attacked.

The manager (who reported to the police and to the papers) is the first woman on the web page. She has 3 female staff.

The one attacked on Wanstead High Street will be one of these... That's all.

Well since the top left picture is of the nursery manager, the victim must be one of the other three ladies.

I would have thought that this question is relevant because if the woman who was attacked is muslim or 'muslim looking' (see also a woman of colour) then we are likely looking at a hate crime. From the website, all the female staff are women of colour. There is definitely more to this story than the scant details in the report linked to above.
Not sure if it counts as a hate crime unless it's been done because of race, religion, sexuality, or colour. Maybe one of the staff members has been having an affair with one of the Asian ladies' husbands, and they decided to wet her up and tell her god will get her (for her infidelity, breaking up a marriage, etc).

That scenario would place it firmly out of hate crime territory, and I'm sure I could come up with other examples that would also not be a hate crime. Just because someone is brown doesn't mean all crimes against them are automatically 'hate crimes'.

Huh? I didn't say just cos someone is brown then it's a hate crime. You are purposefully misrepresenting what I said.

If someone shouts Allah and attacks someone who is black or brown ('muslim looking') it's not unreasonable to suggest that it may be a hate crime :facepalm:

I didn't say that's definitely what has happened here because there aren't enough details, as I also said.
 
If she is a Muslim, then it would not seem obvious that this is a "terrorist" attack, which is the impression given. If she is not a Muslim, then it is unlikely that she would recognise chanting from the Quran, so the part of the account that links the attack to religion looks questionable.

Again, the one who was attacked (staff member) wasn't the one who is quoted as saying the attackers were 'chanting from the Koran' (manager)

And it could just be the managers' clumsy expression.

It could be, but clumsy expression of what? If they weren't chanting from the Quran, what were they doing? Talking to each other in Punjabi, maybe?
 
Is the Manager knowedgable about the Qur'an to the extent that he/she would/could identify and recognise any phrases from the Qur'an? Moreover, 'Allah' is not specific to the Qur'an.
 
One of the comments about the article in the Ilford Recorder suggests that this story is not as published:

Disgusting that the newspaper has published an article without knowing the facts correctly! As we live in the local vicinity and have children in the local school and nursery, we have been told by the nursery manager that the attack on the woman was a personal 'stack' and nothing to do with any chanting of 'Allah'! Please be responsible when publishing such articles as it has a direct impact on the local Muslim community.

Nursery worker stabbed in Wanstead by three women
 
It's still in The Daily Mail which also gives the nursery worker's first name and says she was treated for broken ribs as well.
 
Looks like all reference to Allah has been edited out of the article now?
All very odd.

Maybe all reference to Allah should also be edited out of the thread title, or at least change it to "...allegedly shouting Allah Allah, though this claim later removed from the Standard's story", or something
 
No, it's a story because someone reported that someone said Allah.

It probably didn't happen like that at all, as is being suggested by articles being edited etc.

Is anyone actually surprised this story has changed?
I'm surprised somebody jumped on the story before the Allahu akbar angle was investigated.
Actually, no, I'm not in the least surprised.
 
Whatever you do, don't allow yourself to believe that it is possibly religiously motivated or inspired by the latest attacks. No, it's better to reach a safe verdict and convince ourselves, without any proof, that whatever happened, nobody said Allah and the nursery worker started it anyway.

Now, let's all sing kumbaya.

Someone's laughing, Lord, kumbaya
Someone's laughing, Lord, kumbaya
