Cleric supports targeting children
The Telegraph ^ | 5 September 2004 | Rajeev Syal

Posted on 09/04/2004 6:15:26 PM PDT by NavySEAL F-16

An extremist Islamic cleric based in Britain said yesterday that he would support hostage-taking at British schools if carried out by terrorists with a just cause.

Omar Bakri Mohammed, the spiritual leader of the extremist sect al-Muhajiroun, said that holding women and children hostage would be a reasonable course of action for a Muslim who has suffered under British rule.

In an interview with The Sunday Telegraph, Mr Mohammed said: "If an Iraqi Muslim carried out an attack like that in Britain, it would be justified because Britain has carried out acts of terrorism in Iraq.

"As long as the Iraqi did not deliberately kill women and children, and they were killed in the crossfire, that would be okay."

Mr Mohammed, 44, who lives in Edmonton, north London, but is originally from Syria, also claimed that the Chechen rebels were not responsible for the deaths of more than 350 people - at least half of them children - who are so far known to have died in Beslan.

"The Mujahideen [Chechen rebels] would not have wanted to kill those people, because it is strictly forbidden as a Muslim to deliberately kill women and children. It is the fault of the Russians," he said.

The father of seven came to Britain in 1985 after being deported from Saudi Arabia because of his membership of a banned group. He has since been given leave by the Home Office to remain in Britain for five years but the Government is reviewing his status.

He gave an interview yesterday to promote a "celebratory" conference in London next Saturday to commemorate the third anniversary of the September 11 attacks.

Andrew Dismore, the Labour MP for Hendon, was infuriated by Mr Mohammed's comments. "That sounds to me like incitement and I will report him to Scotland Yard," he said. "It is an insult to most moderate Muslims, who are sick of people like this claiming to represent them."

Islam would appear to have a very warped sense of morality.

EXPOSED! The more they come out of the woodwork, the more people worldwide realize the intolerance and inhumanity of the enemy.

Then they'll realize Bush was right... You're either with us, or against us.

Are we sure of that, or is it just wishful thinking?

The father of seven came to Britain in 1985... So, I assume it would be OK to take his 7 kids and kill them, assuming the cause was just?

From the beginning the Beslan terrorists had every intention of killing all their hostages.

It shows the weakness of Western culture that a self-proclaimed enemy like this can live unmolested and call for the the commission of atrocities without the least fear that anything will happen to him.

Freedom of speech should not extend to muslims.

Does the term "vigilante" come to mind?

It is time for world wide political/terrorist assasinations. Needs to be expanded from Israel. 007 and the other "licensed to kill" - time to report for duty!

I have thots of buying a sniper rifle and getting my eyes operated on - but I am just too old for this sh*t.

Islam is not a religion - it is a political philosophy, much like socialism or fascism. The only difference is that Islam has "holy places", which they use to hide in.

And exactly why is this piece of floating excrement being allowed to live in England? Deport his sorry ass to any of the great Muslim countries he could be living in right now. I am sick of these leaches and even sicker of the appeasers in the West who allow them to live among us and incite the ignorant young to perform these unspeakably barbaric attrocities.

She said in an interview with Rudy that when Bush spoke those words, it really scared her. Forget about WMD going off in a city, or hijacked airliners, liberals are more scared of Bush than terrorists.

Reuters is on line 1. They say to tell Omar not to call them "terrorists," but "militants."

Well Omar, it would appear that the Muslim a$$holes who deliberately flew those planes with women and children on them, into the WTC and the Pentagon could have cared less what your religion strictly forbids.

Unbelievable. The deamage done by the left to the British systems of security is terrifying. Our own ACLU and the myriad of 'diversity' legislation is making us nearly as bad. The solution, ultimately, will be to render the entire superstructure of this kind of idiotic law making void. Then we can tear into these vermin with the kind of retribution they deserve. At the least, this particular Islamic swine needs to be deported to the vilest hell-hole on earth.

I read in another Post of a crazy Mullahg who blamed the Russian deaths on the Israeli's at least this guiy is a bot closer to the truth, but not much.

Having said that , a man in his position stating that taking British children hostage has got to be against some kind of British law. Why is this guy running loose.

If even the French can take a stand over head-scarfs, why can't the Brits take a stand against obvious treason and incitement of violence?

No, it's a religion.

The extremist form of a sick twisted religion that needs to be driven from the face of the planet.

By claiming it's a philosophy, you give Islam a foundation based on reason, not faith.

Extremism based on faith rather than philosophy is far more dangerous.

I wonder how many schools are going to be called about this exact scenario possibly happening at their schools.

I read that the "terrorists" posed as construction workers to lay a huge weapons cache underneath the floor of the gym before it was finished.

I wonder how many schools across this country were having some kind of construction done this summer?

I am surprised that the media hasn't had a poll of people to see if they were sending their children to school on the first day?
