It's about time! They ought to just close it down. It's not a mosque, it's a gathering place for terrorists. These people use religion as a cover for their criminal activity and count on us to be dumb enough to leave them alone to plot against us out of fear of "persecuting" someone for religious purposes.

Having just returned from two years in London, to say it's about time that the Brits raided the Mosque would be the mother of all understatements. They, the Brits, have let all sorts of terrorism related activities go on there for way too long, while siting on their bums. Only last week did they threaten to act against the Mosque, but their mechanism was that the Mosque was not in line with the UK Charity laws!!

I predict the next thing that will happen very shortly is that they will let all those arrested go free without pressing any charges!!

So he's a crappy fighter or crappy bomb maker. I would'nt consider either a resume builder.

Remarkable how hideously disfigured and ugly these mullahs are.

The gloves have come off in Britain.
