(Jewish Chronicle-UK) Daniel Ben-David - Munawar Hussain, 59, who stabbed a Marks & Spencer store manager in the neck before launching himself at a customer on December 2, 2020, in Burnley, Lancashire, has been found guilty of attempted murder and wounding with intent at Manchester crown court. Hussain said he carried out the attack because he believed the retailer funded Israel's "persecution" of Palestinians. He told the court, "Allah will not be upset with me or angry with me and he will be happy with me." Hussain previously told police he would have carried out more attacks had his knife not got stuck in the second victim's handbag strap.
