UK Muslims planned to kill thousands by bringing down SEVEN jets with liquid bombs
dailymail.co.uk ^ | CHARLOTTE GILL and SAM GREENHILL

A gang of British Muslims planned to blow up seven planes within hours in the biggest terrorist atrocity since 9/11, a court heard yesterday.

Two thousand passengers would have died in the plot by eight fanatics working "in the name of Islam", the jury was told.

It could have involved up to 18 suicide bombers. And they were almost ready to strike.

The jets they targeted would all have been bound from Heathrow to cities in the U.S. and Canada, it was claimed.

Makes sense, because being “British” is their defining quality. We all know that “real” muslims would never kill anyone. They’re as peaceful as tibetan monks! Anyone who says otherwise must die.

What would be the headline if a group of fanatical Christians plotted to kill thousands of Muslims?

So that’s why we can’t bring more than 3 oz. of liquid through security.

“Not a single one named Nigel.”
“Where’s my Nigel?” (very obscure reference!)

Too bad there’s no more capital punishment in Great Britain... if indeed they are guilty.

I can't find "Where's my Nigel?" but I did find an incredibly stupid description of Not my Nigel on an incredibly stupid site. (Be prepared to barf.)

Yep, and if you love the new requirements put in place by TSA as a result of this, please do be sure to thank a Muslim.

These people think they’re going to Allah when they die.

I’d rather they spent the rest of their miserable lives in solitary being kept alive for as long as possible....

What, and give the a martyr’s death?

Personally I prefer the old Byzantine approach: blinding. It renders them fairly harmless, denys them martyrdom, makes them a burden on their community, and gives them a chance to repent if God choses to soften their hearts.

Infidel lies! I myself have seen 5-storey buildings built of mud brick in Yemen. If Allah the All-Wise wanted the faithful to go higher, He would have said so through His Prophet Muhammed, May Peace Be Upon Him.

What's more, my ignorant dhimmi friend, the jet engine was invented in Arab lands. By feeding one's camel enough dates, a powerful jet exhaust often propels one across the desert on Haj to Mecca and Medina. And what exactly, infidel dog, does your perverted Western science think propelled Muhamed's (MPBUH) horse on The Prophet's miraculous journeys.
Clue: it was not a Yanmar... it was a date-jet. To deny these fundamental truths of the ROP, o non-believer ... is to suffer a fartwah ... as proclaimed by my imam. ... it means you and other infidel slaves will stand behind my camel for all eternity in Paradise.

Your infidel heart is so hardened that even if you were to submit to the Divine Will of Allah and don the Semtex Vest of Holy Martyrdom, you might only get 30-40 really ugly non-virgins, instead of the true Muslim's share of 72 actual Brittany Spears-type virgins, as promised by Muhammed, May Peace Be Upon Him.

mmmmmmmm, where do I start with this
I am from England and now live here in Florida and have become an American
Not sure where you get the limey retards view as many British have died including my mates helping on the war on terror

Is England being over taken yes it is slowly

Do many people know yes they do but the word has not got out as much as I like and the left have really got their heads up their arses.

When you say idiots who are you exactly reffering to, thsoe elected
Yes I can agree on that
the people who are letting this happen
yes I can agree on that

those who have served their country as I have, those who have died in Iraq and afghanistan and elsewhere

No I don’t agree at all

Britain has been America;s best ally, unlike other euro countries, like Spain, Ireland portugal etc

ALso you do know many muslims are moving here and are keeping quiet till their numbers get bigger

so what is happening in England and Europe is happeneing here,
foot washes, seperate, gym classes and times, right to pray for just muslims

o and jaguar is not British no more.

My sense is England is target 1 for infilitration since it’s viewed in the ME as evil 1. France for it’s part is fighting a sucessful battle to retain cultural identity, the key being outlawing the hijab. Knowledgeable muslims and arabs know the headscarf worn tightly on ones head is the primary symbol of control and pre-emminence of the religious males over the rest. We are so stupid we don’t outlaw the headdress. Outlaw that and you mortally wound the males while giving the females their first opportunity to express some small degree of freedom from same said males. That’s the key.

I think that the one thing that the muzzies and lefties miscalculate here is the depth of patriotism that runs through the hearts of REAL Americans - those of us (including you) who understand love of country, love of the ideal of liberty, and general love of freedom, and what this country represents.

Plus, most REAL Americans are very well armed, and will ALWAYS be... that alone separates us from most of the rest of the world. A fact which the international left knows and hates and is working very hard through the DemCom party to obliterate. A fact which keeps them up at night worrying, as well they should.

You can’t retain your liberty/heritage/culture if you have nothing to fight with to preserve it. If you have no teeth and claws, you are simply not a threat. We have a THRIVING “gun culture” here, in spite of attempts by the socialists to destroy it - and MEN who are willing to die to keep it.

And Americans have also given their lives to preserve England’s freedom as well (1917-1918, 1941-1945, 1950-1953, 1965-1973 - till the present. The jihad is against “The West”, after all, of which England is a part).

Thank you for your service, Manc. It’s good to have friends you can count on.

Thank you I’m waiting for my children to come home from school and show the oldest one that video.

Isn’t it ironic that a 10 year old knows about the sacrifices and honour more so than most adults who are on the lunatic left, especially those at code pink and other libs.

He knows all that
he knows that whites are africans as well as blacks so he never says african american when talking about blacks
he knows racism goes both ways
he knows more about American history and British History than most of them on the left and maybe even his teachers
He knows about what people have done in the past to give us the freedom to live iin America and England

I am proud and you have broguth some memories back for me,

God bless
