A Visit to Woolwich; The trial of the two men who proudly claim they killed British soldier Lee Rigby is drawing to a close.

By John O’Sullivan  "From Green Park station in central London it takes only 15 minutes to get to Greenwich by the Tube. From there a taxi will get you to Woolwich in another 15. I took this journey a few months ago, and I learned from the taxi driver that I was just the latest member of a fairly crowded pilgrimage to see . . . well, what exactly?"

Not where Drummer (Private) Lee Rigby was brutally murdered last May so much as where the English people in their thousands came to lay wreaths, medals, and other mementoes on the weekends following his death. The taxi driver gave me a running commentary: Here was the road where the banks of flowers had spilled over the pavement into the street; they had now been removed by local government authorities, but visitors kept coming; now they usually left flowers at the entrance to the Woolwich Arsenal.
....
"... But the details of the murder — and the video recordings of it — still have the power to shock. Rigby’s mother and sister had to run in tears from the court to avoid seeing him deliberately run down by a car driven by the two defendants before they went on to cut him up with knives and cleavers."

From the UK Daily Mail: '...Muslim converts ran him down before almost decapitating him with meat cleaver and knives'
"There were gasps in Court Two when video footage of the soldier being mown down by a car, dragged into the road and executed was shown."

Drummer Rigby carried away by comrades from his unit.
