Muslims in police will rise up, Bakri insists

Moderate British Muslims in the police, Armed Forces and Civil Service will one day revolt against the system to "crush it from within", according to Omar Bakri Mohammed, the notorious Islamic extremist.
Omar Bakri Mohammed claimed that the world was a better place after the July 7 bombings in London
In claims condemned as a cynical attempt to create division, the co-founder of the extremist al-Muhajiroun group said that Britain was "digging a deep hole" for itself by allowing Muslims into the Services and Whitehall.
Speaking exclusively to The Sunday Telegraph in Lebanon, where he moved in August 2005 at about the time it emerged the British authorities might charge him with incitement to treason he claimed police officers, soldiers and civil servants would one day become radicalised.
"When you start to ask Muslims to join your Army and your police you are making a grave mistake. That British Muslim who joins the police today will one day read the Koran and will have an awakening," he said.
"Those moderates are one day going to be practising Muslims. Now what happens if they are British police or in the Army and they have weapons? How much information do they have about you that they will use to serve the global struggle?
"They will revolt against the system if they have been failed by your foreign policy which is oppressive against Islam, or have been contacted by people who believe Britain is a domain of war."
In remarks almost certain to cause widespread anger among the survivors and relatives of victims, he also claimed that the world was a better place after the July 7 bombings in London. "I believe it is a better place for Islam and Muslims but not for non-Muslims. What's happening around the world is good and positive for Islam."
The comments were condemned by moderate Muslim leaders. Ibrahim Mogra, the chairman of the Interfaith Relations Committee of the Muslim Council of Britain, said: "This is part of an attempt to create divisions both within the Muslim community and the wider society.
"On the contrary, the more a Muslim police officer becomes a practising Muslim, the more loyal he will become, the more he will realise his duty to his country and the need to contribute to its well-being."
He added: "People are entitled to their views, but we actually have our own scholars and imams, who are still in this country, not abroad, and who talk about contributing to Britain and the responsibilities that we have to it."
Bakri Mohammed came to Britain in 1985 after being expelled from Saudi Arabia. He was rapidly derided as "the Tottenham Ayatollah". His inflammatory pronouncements have included calling the September 11 terrorists the "Magnificent 19".
He disbanded al-Muhajiroun in 2004. Shortly after the July 7 attacks Tony Blair announced the group would be banned as part of a series of measures against condoning or glorifying terrorism.
After Bakri Mohammed left for Beirut he was banned from returning to Britain. The Government deemed his presence "no longer conducive to the public good".
In Beirut last week, a relaxed Bakri Mohammed sipped freshly-squeezed strawberry juice in an upmarket restaurant overlooking the Mediterranean.
He took pleasure in hearing media reports about Abid Javaid, 41, of Thornton Heath, Surrey, a civil servant in the Immigration and Nationality Directorate, who was exposed late last year as a leading member of the extremist organisation Hizb ut-Tahrir (HT), which Mr Blair had wanted to ban.
This was despite Bakri Mohammed's admission: "I left HT in 1996 and they condemn what I stand for."
Bakri Mohammed readily confirmed that he had officiated at the wedding of Pc Alexander Omar Basha, his relative by marriage.
In October, however, when the diplomatic protection officer faced controversy after being excused guard duties at the Israeli embassy, Bakri Mohammed admitted Pc Basha's views were far more moderate than his own and even complained: "If I'd have known [he was a policeman at the time of the wedding] I would never have married them. My advice to all Muslims in the police is to leave their jobs."
Give that man a raise and a mansion in Surrey!
They take in everything around them, but subsume it, rather than learn from it and then continue in their destructive ways.
""When you start to ask Muslims to join your Army and your police you are making a grave mistake. "
Amazing, I agree with a muslim extremist about something.
For once he's telling the truth.
"Global."
When will people sit up and take these people at their word?
BTTT!
The liberals want to concede victory to these people.
Is this a death wish?
"When you start to ask Muslims to join your Army and your police you are making a grave mistake. That British Muslim who joins the police today will one day read the Koran and will have an awakening," he said.
Unfortunately, he's probably right.
I believe him.
This is rather bold. But why should they hide anything now? They have finally been exposed on local TV stations through documentaries broadcast almost simultaneously in every country of the West
...with extreme prejudice please?
You have a larger/higher-res version of that image?
I think that the Marxist, Leninist, Stalinist, Socialist, Abortion Loving, American hating, military hating, religion hating (except for Is-lum), conservative hating, gun hating, pig dimocrats actually believe they can be friends with these people and that these people are actually going to befriend them, and actually deal with them, actually work together on destroying the USA, fall in love with them, and all live happily ever after. The dimocrats that I hear talking around there, EVERYONE OF THEM ACTUALLY BELIEVE that America is destroying the earth, the environment, the world, using up all the resources, causing global warming, thus must be punished and destroyed. They just do not believe that the muzzies will cause them any harm. They think that they will be friends. And they will all live happily ever after here in the promise land. When you tell them that the Muzzies murder homosexuals and what women become under them, they do not believe all that, and believe that the Muzzies will allow the liberals to continue on their merry way.
Their stupidly is so deep, they cannot see the danger. Simply cannot, will-not, refuse, to see the danger of the Muzlins, their religion and that they want to enslave and dominate the world.
What you say is very true. Everything seems very remote to us. It's really hard to believe that everybody else in the world doesn't just want to hop in the car and go buy a new TV or simply go shopping and buy a few silly things for the house, a truly harmless pleasure. I honestly don't know why Muslims don't want to do this - it would be so much nicer if Muslims just wanted to go shopping and not kill and dominate us all. But the reality is that the latter is their goal, and it's almost impossible for us to understand that.
This has to be one of the most all time stupid pieces of pure bull $h*t that I have ever read or heard. This this person ACTUALLY THAT STUPID???????? Un-frigging bo-leave-able!!!!
