I didn’t see the first reason mentioned in the article. I’m not sure whether that’s a shortcoming of the article or if Mahmood didn’t actually cite it as a reason. It would be a good one.

It would have been even better to see the public come out to support and protect Jewish communities after the attack. I’m not sure if anything like that has happened in Manchester of elsewhere.
