8 minutes to kill all three of the London Bridge terrorist murderers.
"The Mayors of the USA who haven't had a terrorist attack know full well that in
today's age of terrorist actions, domestic and international, an attack could
happen in their city.
"And the Mayors of the USA whose cities have been hit with an attack of hate and
murder have an even more personal feeling for London Mayor Khan. We commend him
for his statement today.
"He has risen above this crisis of death and destruction, as mayors continue to
do, to alleviate fear, to bring comfort to his people of London and to give
support to the first responders who continue to protect, defend and provide
emergency care to his people of London.
"Thank you, Mayor Khan, for your leadership during this crisis.
"World Leaders need to know that, in 2017 thus far, in our cities across the
globe, there have been 500 attacks and 3500 deaths and many more physically and
mentally wounded."
