#1 "Britain's first home-grown jihad training camp in the grounds of a former English ballet school . . ."

That strikes me as-- as insane. What's the world coming to.

#2 and there's probably many more of these schools. This happens to only be one that was found out.
No textbooks eh? Probably funneling the money as well.

#3 The Trust bought the school in 1991 for £850,000, with money raised by Muslims across the country.

That $1 million plus purchase price came from exactly where? Most likely it was zakat, largely donated by, guess who? Moderate Muslims. This is why I have largely ceased to differentiate among Muslims in general. No questions are being asked by a majority of the Islamic community as untold millions of dollars flows into the coffers of jihadist terrorists. Until Muslims actively intervene instead of relying upon the kuffar to catch every last stinking security violation, they are all one in the same. A threat to Western civilization.

#4 "A threat to Western civilization"

Actually a threat to the entire non-islamic world. While the Western civilization has potentially the best means of dealing with this Cult of zombied vampires, self-afflicted political correctness shackles it foolishly.

#5 Hmmmm. A cult of killer zombies. Seems to be a pretty apt description. No matter how many get whacked they just seem to keep coming.

#6 It's only the tip of the iceberg and only in the UK. What about other european countries? Good work from MI5. Now we have see how socialist forces in the UK will start their media offensive and tell that it is all discrimination.

#7 Praise be to allan that MI5 have plenty of experience in infiltrating terror groups because of their work against IRA. One mole for every active jihadi should keep them under wraps.

#8 Amen, Zenster. The bulk of the world's Muslims aren't interested in going on jihad themselves, but they'll cheerfully fulfill their obligation by handing over the cash. They know damned well where it's going, and approve.

#10 There are an estimated 1.2 million muslims in the world. We can't kill them all, but we CAN (and are) killing the most 'adventurous' of the lot in Afghanistan and Iraq. It'll take several more years, but eventually the 'adventurous' ones will be killed off, and only the placid ones will be left to deal with. Those can be isolated and marginalized.

#12 The old ballet school cover up trick hmmm.... If they had looked closer at the personal intersts of the al Qaida top dawgs, they would have noticed their peculiar fetish for not only dressing up as women, but wearing tutus, fantasizing as being ballarinas and having boy harems. A look at this would help home in on a segment of the leadership that has a lip-lock on these fetishes. What a double the pleasure it must have been for this secret training camp, and an inside joke among the leaders. If some stereotyped non-ballet types in the future inquire about purchasing such facilities in the future using a Pakistan-Afghan region-like accent, then by all means take their money and report them. Make the Queen proud and the rest of the kingdom. Tally-ho!

#13 Am I the only one who gets the impression that the Brits simply stopped doing the three monkeys imitation.

#14 gromgoru, it looks to me like this airplane hijacking plot they stopped was the end of a thread that they just keep on pulling to unravel the fabric. I suspect whole units are going to sleep each night with happy smiles on their faces, awakening full of zest to the joys of the next day's labours -- and emailing the results to share the joy with the cousins across the pond.
