Sky News Two attackers armed with meat cleavers filmed their deadly assault on a man in London, according to Sky sources. A man reported to be a serving soldier died and the two attackers were then shot by the police following the terrorist attack in Woolwich. Senior Whitehall sources said the two attackers, who are in hospital, asked passers-by to film them, and they shouted "Allahu Akbar" (Allah is great). In footage that has emerged, one of the attackers wields a bloodied meat cleaver and says: "We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you." The black man, dressed in a gray hooded jacket and black woolly hat, apologizes to members of the public who witnessed the horrific scenes before making a number of political statements. In the footage, he is heard to say: "We must fight them as they fight us. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth...I apologies that women have had to witness this today, but in our land our women have to see the same. You people will never be safe...Remove your government, they don't care about you." Witnesses also described seeing the "crazed" Woolwich attackers "hacking" at their victim and posing for pictures before charging at police wielding meat cleavers. One onlooker, identified as James, said he saw two black men chopping at a man in his 20s like he was "a piece of meat". "They were hacking at this poor guy, literally. They were hacking at him, chopping him, cutting him," he told LBC. Describing the murderers as "animals", he told how he saw them drag their victim from the pavement into the middle of the road. "These two guys were crazed," he said as he fought back tears. "They then stood around, waving knives and a gun, asking people nearby to take pictures of them "as if they wanted to be on TV or something". He said they were running up and down the road, urging people to take pictures. "In my opinion, they were waiting for the police to arrive to be shot by the police. That's the only thing I can think," he said. When armed police arrived 20 minutes later, "the man with the beanie hat, the tall guy, he charged at the police vehicle," James said. Another witness, Julia Wilders, 51, who lives near the scene, said she saw one of the attackers run towards police clutching two meat cleavers. "He ran towards police before they could even get out of the car, and it looked like the other one was going to lift the gun up," she said. "We were driving back and my husband said to me 'don't look, they're resuscitating someone'. But apparently they were stabbing him."
