Imam backs terror attack against Blair
2006-06-18
Brighton mosque radicalised

A radical Muslim who ousted a leading moderate cleric from his mosque on the south coast with a campaign of violence has said he believes Tony Blair is a “legitimate target” for terrorists.

Abubaker Deghayes, who now runs the mosque in Brighton and whose brother Omar is a detainee at Guantanamo Bay, told an undercover reporter that he endorsed the views of George Galloway, the Respect MP, who said an attack on the prime minister by a suicide bomber could be morally justified. Deghayes said he prayed for Allah to support anyone who attacked Blair.

Court documents show Deghayes took over the mosque using violence, intimidation and threats. Dr Abduljalil Sajid, a leading imam and a government adviser on Islam, was forced out as head of the mosque by Deghayes and his supporters.

It is understood Sussex police Special Branch held a number of meetings with Sajid about extremist elements at the site, but no overt action was taken. Sajid, chairman of the Muslim Council for Religious and Racial Harmony, is understood to have raised his concerns about the mosque with Blair.

Police sources have confirmed that in the past extremist literature had been found at the site and that some of those attending the mosque were suspected of having fought as “mercenaries” abroad.

#8  "Imagine if during WW II the UK had allowed Nazi groups to openly organize, proselytize, and advocate the murder of Churchill as well as British Jews."

They did! it wasn't till 22nd May 1940 that Defence Regulation 18B was enacted. Mosley etc was arrested and the british union of fascists considered illegal.

Sorry for being pedantic but history is truth.
BTW churchill personally allowed them a little cottage in jail.

plus ca meme change.

Mind you the states were busy navel gazing at the time.

#6  Let's ask the important question: Did Deghayes turn in his knife during the amnesty program?

#5  People must understand where they stand in the feeding chain.
Islam is number one and the rest are according to the hadiths,
The crucial element is jizya, which is a pool tax which must be paid in the same spirit as protection money.
Additionally the payer must feel humiliated.
Back in the old days this was accomplished by a physical beating of the individual when they paid the tax.
Now, however governments pay the tax (tribute), see the recent tribute paid to the Palestinians by the Big four, including the US.
As there was no physical abuse involved in handing over the money, a token abuse must be inflicted, such as a train bombing or a hijack of an airline which is subsequently flown into commercial buildings.
No hard feelings on the side of the Mohammedans, just a reminder of the natural order of things.

#4  Imagine if during WW II the UK had allowed Nazi groups to openly organize, proselytize, and advocate the murder of Churchill as well as British Jews.

Then when they decided to do something about Nazi murderers, they announced that they'd first "consult" with them.

Europe will soon be lost, and descend into a space for everyday Moslem war. The question facing us is what will happen in the USA. The right to own guns and to self-defense are in much better shape here, so far.

#2  The police would rather secretly observe him for a few years while he infuses his followers with stupid ideas. Lucky for him I'm not the king.
