Jury Hears Suicide Tapes

The BBC article does not state what ideology the hydrogen peroxide liquid bombs terrorists adhere to. The only thing the article mentions about the recordings is how to speak to the camera. I bet the recordings include the terrorists giving praise to a god named a---h that they wished to strike terror into the hearts of the 'unbelievers'.


A jury has heard recordings in which one of eight men accused of an aircraft bomb plot is alleged to be showing another how to present a suicide video.

Woolwich Crown Court heard the bugged conversations took place at an east London flat the prosecution claims the men used as their bomb factory in 2006.

The jury heard that the man said in the recordings: "Don't try and speak posh English... give a bit of aggression."

It is claimed they planned to make hydrogen peroxide liquid bombs disguised as soft drinks to detonate in mid-air on at least seven passenger planes flying out of Heathrow Airport.

The prosecution said the surveillance recordings were made when two of the defendants, Abdullah Ali, 27, and Umar Islam, 29, were inside the alleged bomb factory.

A man, said to be Mr Ali, tells the other man to relax.

"Don't try and speak posh English... give a bit of aggression", he says.

There follows a long section where a man who calls himself Umar Islam is allegedly recording or rehearsing a suicide video which was found by police.

'Give it some'

The man later says: "How did I do?". The other voice on the tape replies "OK", but suggests that he emphasises his performance when he talks about martyrdom operations.
