British police charge six in terror plot

Members of the Religion of Peace, preparing for a party of death for some innocent victims!
Could you Imagine what the world would be like right now if no one actively went after those who would commit such acts of terror, it would be a scary place.


Dawn.com
Six men have been charged with involvement in a terror-bomb plot, police announced on Sunday.

The arrests last Monday of the six Birmingham-area men were part of a “major operation” by the West Midlands counterterrorism unit, the West Midlands police department said.

Police said Tuesday they had been given until midnight Sunday to charge the men, release them or apply for a further extension.

Four were charged with preparing for an act of terrorism and two more with failing to disclose information, the police said. One of those two was also charged with terrorist fundraising.

All six, who are aged between 25 and 32, will appear at West London Magistrates Court on Monday.

The police said Irfan Nasser, 30, Irfan Khalid, 26, Ashik Ali, 26, and Rahin Ahmed, 25, were charged with plotting terrorist acts.

They were involved in planning between Dec. 25, 2010 and Sept. 19 of this year to prepare or help others prepare to commit acts of terrorism, the department said.

Ash cloud moves towards UK airspace

Awesome display of Mother Nature.





Guardian.co.uk
Airlines and airports have been warned to expect ash from an erupting Icelandic volcano to arrive in UK airspace by Tuesday, with the possibility that it could affect Heathrow airport by the end of the week.

Europe's air traffic control organisation, Eurocontrol, told airlines and airports on Monday that particles from the Grimsvötn volcano could reach Scotland by 1am on Tuesday and southern England by Thursday or Friday, depending on wind direction.

An aviation industry source said if the volcano continues to erupt at same intensity ash cloud could reach the west of the UK on Thursday or Friday, but the Met Office has low confidence in the forecast because of a prevailing low pressure system.

Nick Clegg to denounce Mahmoud Ahmadinejad at UN

So once again Imalitlemunky spouts his ridiculous B.S. at the U.N. , It has become expected of the little Jackass .

The U.N. was less than half full to begin with , and the U.S. along with 30 some other countries walked out again !

It is an Unfortunate truth , that any world leader can go to the U.N. to say whatever they want , but a line has been being crossed repeatedly when the little Mullah Monkey stands up on his step stool to speak .

It would be nice to see more of the people that represent their countries at the U.N. openly speak out against this type of Insanity !


Guardian.co.uk
Nick Clegg will today issue a strong condemnation of the Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, telling the UN that his claims, made yesterday, that the US government was behind the 9/11 attacks on New York are "bizarre, offensive and attention-grabbing".

The deputy prime minister has added the comments to a speech he is to due to make to the UN general assembly after an international outcry over Ahmadinejad's comments to the same meeting yesterday.

Ahmadinejad accused the US government of orchestrating the 9/11 attacks to prop up Israel. Speaking just a few miles away from Ground Zero in New York, he prompted a walkout of the US and UK delegations from the chamber. US diplomats dismissed his comments as "abhorrent and delusional".

Clegg will say: "I was ready today to welcome the progress made in this week's meeting of the E3+3 group on Iran. I was ready to straightforwardly reiterate our concerns about Iran's nuclear programme. But instead, once again, an issue of grave global concern has been overshadowed by the bizarre, offensive and attention-grabbing pronouncements by President Ahmedinejad from this podium yesterday. His remarks were intended to distract attention from Iran's obligations and to generate media headlines. They deserve to do neither."

Ginormous Rats Invade U.K. Housing Complex

I have seen rats this big in Detroit , it's a pretty scary thing when they run at you like a rabid dog !



Foxnews
Horrified U.K. residents claim their homes are being invaded by giant rats -- including a 30-inch long monster that was shot dead.

The rodents, twice the size of common types, are plaguing an estate in West Yorks in the Northern U.K., often appearing in kitchens and lounges. Some fear they could be "super rats" from South America.

But the shaken man who shot it in the head -- 31-year-old Brandon Goddard -- yesterday revealed four others of the same size scuttled away to safety.

"They were more like Ratzillas than rats," Goddard said. "I got out of there as fast as I could. Who knows how many there will be if they've been breeding?"

Plastic bags to be put over Birmingham 'terror cameras'

Muslims will cry about anything .

The U.K. has the more Security cameras trained on it's citizens , Than any other country in the world , It is something These citizens all have to deal with in their everyday lives .

Except for Muslims , They feel they need to know where every camera is , nobody else waking the streets of the U.k Know or really even care , But the muslims feel as though they are the only ones being watched


BBC
Bags are to be put over dozens of surveillance cameras in parts of Birmingham with large Muslim populations, after local objections.

Safer Birmingham Partnership (SBP) said 218 cameras were put up, including hidden ones, mainly in the Washwood Heath and Sparkbrook districts.

The cameras were financed through a counter-terrorism fund, but the SBP said they would tackle all crime.

Councillor Salma Yaqoob said people had lost faith in the authorities.

The Respect Party councillor for Sparkbrook said: "In terms of reassurance it's going to take a lot more than plastic bags.

"The residents have lost faith with the authorities for their sneaky handling of the way they went about this and will not be reassured until they have been told the locations of the hidden cameras too."

SBP - a partnership of the police, the city council and other agencies - said 72 cameras had been placed covertly but that they would not be covered by the plastic bags.

UK can't deport men to Pakistan over torture risk

Al Qaida = Bad guys !
Bad guys "Do" Bad things !
So what is the problem with bad things happening to Bad guys ?


Dawn.com
LONDON: Two men regarded as a serious danger to national security can't be deported to their native Pakistan because they face the risk of torture in their homeland, a British court ruled Tuesday.

The Special Immigration Appeals Commission said Abid Naseer, 24, and Ahmed Faraz Khan, 26, can't be forcibly removed to Pakistan, because of the likelihood they would be mistreated.

Judge John Mitting and two colleagues made the ruling despite labeling Naseer an al-Qaeda operative and Khan an Islamist extremist.

''There is a long and well-documented history of disappearances, illegal detention and of the torture and ill-treatment of those detained, usually to produce information, a confession or compliance,'' the judges said in a ruling issued Tuesday.

British Defense Unveils Special Goo to Protect Soldiers

Amazing what can be done when you put your Mind to it .
Special Goo ? Just sounds odd though .


Foxnews
Britain's Ministry of Defense unveiled a robot hand that could defuse bombs and a luminous goo that flows around soldiers’ moving bodies but hardens to protect them if they are hit and a uniform that conducts electricity.

The innovations were among the first fruits of the initiative that aims to harness scientific innovation for rapid use on the battlefield. They are being funded by grants from the MoD's Center for Defense Enterprise, which encourages private companies to bring their products straight to the government for development. Officials say that 15 in every 100 applications are tested and about two are then developed.

But, the event held in Oxford on Friday looked more like a convention for dreadlocked and ponytailed Dungeons and Dragons enthusiasts than a Ministry of Defence event.

Among the companies to have received funding is d3o Lab, which has developed an "intelligent" liquid polymer that is easily malleable when moved slowly but whose molecules lock together and absorb force when hit by a projectile.

To demonstrate its properties, which have uses in a new generation of helmets and types of body armor, members of the d3o team wrapped the luminous orange goo round their hands and then struck them repeatedly with hammers. "The way that the material responds to your body movements, you get a duality of flexibility and protection," Floria Antolini said.

Other innovations on show included the "Little Owl", a lightweight drone that its developers hope will carry 20kg of surveillance equipment and power itself on solar energy for up to three months. The project has received £44,000 of funding for development.

Intelligent Textiles received £49,500 to help it to develop an army uniform that conducts electricity and computer data through internally woven "conductive yarns". It allows troops to attach electrical equipment to powerpoints on their uniform, and to run internal heaters to keep them warm. The uniform runs off a central battery pack.

Muslim students monitored in UK

The UK is setting up a panel to consider ways to prevent extremism while protecting freedom of speech.


So they were doing nothing Before , to protect Against Extremism ?


Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Nigerian who allegedly tried to explode a US bound airliner on Christmas day, spent three years studying at the University College London (UCL).

He was also the president of the university's Islamic Society, which has since been under intense scrutiny - along with UCL administration.

UK: Bad news. Terror suspects set for payday after winning landmark human rights case.

Mr. Justice Silber Reason #3421 why Guantanamo is prudent and necessary in today's world.

Mr. Justice Silber - voted most likely to deserve waterboarding. --->

From The Daily Mail:

Terror suspects who were placed under virtual house arrest by the Government may claim thousands of pounds in compensation from the taxpayer.

The High Court ruled yesterday that two alleged fanatics given control orders by the Home Office had been denied their human right to a fair trial.

The men may now lodge compensation claims under Labour's Human Rights Act. This is in addition to legal fees running to hundreds of thousands of pounds.

It is the latest in a series of blows to the control order regime administered by the courts.

UK: Sharia is coming, perhaps a military coup, too - Randy Andy Choudary

And he says he's forming a new group: Democracy is Dead.

"... (Choudary) planned to “launch a new organisation under the title Democracy Is Dead, adding: “You will have to wait and see.”

What a dipwad this guy Choudary is. His group Islam4UK has just been banned, his website has been taken down, he bites the hand that feeds him as he lives on the UK dole and now he's advocating a military coup to implement Sharia in the UK.

“Seriously ... I don’t think I need to leave Britain; I think that we can live here and propagate Islam and one day we will implement the sharia here.” He is vague about the time frame but more specific about the method. “Public awareness and possibly a military coup,” he says.

There's more - he threatens violence in the streets ala Srebrenica:

Speaking exclusively to the Daily Star Sunday, East London-based Choudary, 42, said: “The Government’s decision to ban Islam4UK is a very dangerous one as it will only increase the potential for some very nasty conflict. You only have to look at what happened between Bosnia and Serbia at Srebrenica. There could be a bloodbath on the streets."

“I don’t think the British people want that but, when you start to suppress ideological movements, you push them underground and there is more chance of conflict. The Government has created a tinderbox situation by banning us. We were the ones calming things down.” (Ed. Note: That's a joke. He's come a long way from his beer swilling, pot smoking, porn ogling days, hasn't he.)

Here's a little something to cleanse the hint of this dipwad Choudary "ludicrous bearded pig on a stick" out of your mouth courtesy of Pat Condell. Enjoy.

UK: Muslim protestors get day in court. And special treatment galore.

Muslim protestors luton
The a-holes refused to stand for the judge and the judge 'compromised' by allowing them to enter the court after her. To add insult to injury, they were given an extra 20 minutes on their lunch break to go pray at a nearby mosque. A special 'quiet room' has also been set up in the court house to allow them to pray during the rest of the trial.

Dear God, what on earth are they thinking over there in the UK?

From the Daily Mail:

Seven Muslim protesters accused of screaming insults at soldiers during an Iraq homecoming parade refused to stand for a judge yesterday.

The men are alleged to have shouted 'murderers', 'rapists', 'terrorists' and 'baby killers' while waving placards at the 2nd Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment marching through Luton.

At the town's magistrates' court, they denied using threatening, abusive, insulting words and behaviour likely to cause harassment, alarm and distress to others.

The defendants were given an extra 20 minutes on top of their lunch break to go to pray at a mosque a few minutes' walk away.

A separate 'quiet' room has been set aside for their regular prayer intervals for the rest of the week. The seven accused men are Munin Abdul, 28, Jalal Ahmed, 21, Jabair Ahmed, 19, Yousaf Bashir, 29, Shajjadar Choudhury, 31, Ziaur Rahman, 32, and white Muslim Ibrahim Anderson, 32, all from Luton.

They are alleged to have chanted: 'British army murderers', 'British soldiers burn in hell' and 'Baby killers shame on you'.

UK may ban Islamist march in military memorial town

This should be good , especially if Islam4uk does hold a march and are banned from doing so .
Either way , Islam4uk will have a major hissy fit over this , and it can only help confirm the fact that Islam and its Radical fringe are not good for the rest of the world .

....
LONDON (reuters) - British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said on Monday he was appalled that an Islamist group planned to march through a town renowned for honoring British troops killed in Afghanistan.
Any attempt to distress the families of dead soldiers would be "abhorrent and offensive," he said in a statement.

Home Secretary Alan Johnson said the proposed march through Wootton Bassett in southwest England filled him with "revulsion" and he would grant a ban on the march on public order grounds if police and the local authority sought one.

Mourners regularly line the streets of Wootton Bassett as the coffins of troops pass through the town from a nearby airforce base which receives the bodies of British soldiers flown back from Afghanistan.

Islamist activist Anjem Choudary said his organization Islam4UK intended to hold the procession to highlight the deaths of "innocent Muslim men, women and children" who had been killed in the conflict.

Islam4UK seeks the introduction of sharia law in Britain has links to Islmaist militant leader Omar Bakri Mohammed who has been banned from entering Britain. The group's website gave no indication of when the march would take place.

Some 246 British soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan since the invasion to oust the Taliban in 2001.

A protest last March by Choudary's supporters in Luton, north of London, against soldiers returning from Iraq led to widespread condemnation.

A facebook page set up to oppose the Wootton Bassett procession has already attracted almost 180,000 supporters.

UK: You better not pout. You better not cry. You better watch out - I'm telling you why.

The "Christmas Cutters" and "Mutilation parties" are coming to town.

Ain't diversity grand?

Hundreds of British schoolgirls are facing the terrifying prospect of female genital mutilation (FGM) over the Christmas holidays as experts warn the practice continues to flourish across the country. Parents typically take their daughters back to their country of origin for FGM during school holidays, but The Independent on Sunday has been told that "cutters" are being flown to the UK to carry out the mutilation at "parties" involving up to 20 girls to save money.

The police face growing criticism for failing to prosecute a single person for carrying out FGM in 25 years; new legislation from 2003 which prohibits taking a girl overseas for FGM has also failed to secure a conviction.

Experts say the lack of convictions, combined with the Government's failure to invest enough money in education and prevention strategies, mean the practice continues to thrive. Knowledge of the health risks and of the legislation remains patchy among practising communities, while beliefs about the supposed benefits for girls remain firm, according to research by the Foundation for Women's Health, Research and Development (Forward).

As a result, specialist doctors and midwives are struggling to cope with increasing numbers of women suffering from long-term health problems, including complications during pregnancy and childbirth.

[...]

FGM is classified into four types, of varying severity; type 3 is the most mutilating and involves total removal of the clitoris, labia and a narrowing of the whole vagina.

An estimated 70,000 women living in the UK have undergone FGM, and 20,000 girls remain at risk, according to Forward. The practice is common in 28 African countries, including Somalia, Sudan and Nigeria, as well as some Middle Eastern and Asian countries such as Malaysia and Yemen. It is generally considered to be an essential rite of passage to suppress sexual pleasure, preserve girls' purity and cleanliness, and is necessary for marriage in many communities even now. It has no religious significance.

But you sure don't hear the Imams putting a FATWA on the practice now, do you? No, but the multicultural mavens in the UK have appointed something called an "FGM Co-ordinator" to "drive forward a co-ordinated government response to this appalling crime and make recommendations for future work."

No word on making any arrests, though. I guess that wouldn't be politically correct. Or something.

UK: SIOE demo in Harrow today.

Harrow 1

Update: Tweets here.

<--- Today in Harrow. (Pictures cheerfully lifted from that moonbat site Anorak.com.)

The Harrow Times is reporting:

ANTI-fascist and anti-Islam protesters are facing off this afternoon in opposing demonstrations in Harrow. Around two hundred people under of Unite Against Fascism (UAF) started to arrive outside Harrow Central Mosque at midday for a protest to “defend Harrow's community”.

Harrow 2 The bought and paid for opposition. Note the expensive pre-printed signs. The red socialist flags were in evidence, too.----->

They are objecting to plans by Stop the Islamisation of Europe (SIOE) to hold an anti-Islam rally outside the mosque today. Eighteen men and one woman have arrived to protest against the mosque, but it is unclear whether they are SIOE members.

The groups are currently in a stand off in the car park of Harrow Civic Centre, separated by police and specially erected security barriers.

Harrow 3 <---What's with the Daily Mail mask?

The UAF supporters have been chanting “racist scum - off our streets”, which have been occasionally countered by shouts from the sparse gathering of anti-Mosque supporters.

Roy Parsons, one of the anti-Islam protesters, told the Harrow Times: “Muslims want dominance, they don't want to live alongside us. “They have a right to be here, but they have to live alongside us with our laws. We are here for a peaceful protest, it's the UAF who are the dangerous ones.”

Islam establishes a beach head in Ireland

Irish muslims on parade Irish Muslims on parade. ---->

The Saudi Arabian government will open an Islamic secondary school for hundreds of Muslim students and Christian converts in Dublin.

These plans were revealed in Arabic on the website for the new Saudi embassy in Dublin. The Saudis intend to use the embassy to "further develop our political, trade and cultural relations with Ireland."

The Saudi ambassador to Ireland, Abdulaziz Aldriss, said, "Many Saudi students have found Ireland as a friendly destination to improve their English language skills and pursue their second and third-level education." (Ed. Note: Just like the 9/11 hijackers found America to be!)

Ireland has a Muslim population of more than 40,000 people, but there are only about 400 Saudi students and 15 Saudi families in Ireland.

Speaking to the Irish Times, Ali Selim, a theologian based at the Islamic Centre in Clonskeagh, welcomed the news and said if the high school opened it would "achieve a long-cherished Muslim ambition" in Ireland.

That would be the establishment of the caliphate, possums.

UK: 90 ft steel tower built next to mosque: Don't worry it only 'resembles a minaret'

Iconic minaretWould the last Englishman to leave Britain please turn out the lights?

Courtesy of the East London Advertiser.

Work begins this week on erecting a giant 90ft ‘iconic’ steel tower next to a mosque in the middle of the Brick Lane conservation area in London’s East End.

<--- Looks more like an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile to me.

The structure which will resemble the shape of a minaret is being erected inches from the wall of the Jamme Masjid mosque, a converted former synagogue founded originally as an 18th century Huguenot church, after planning permission was given by Tower Hamlets council.

Council Leader Lutfur Rahman visited the site last week when the base was completed, where he met Muslim community leaders. The steel structure will dominate the skyline of the Georgian conservation area around Spitalfields, the historic Huguenot weaving district, and is being billed by the Town Hall as “a new iconic East End landmark.”

The seven sections of the tower are being fitted together and erected during the week.

Ghastly bishops square About Bishop's Square? It's pretty ghastly if you ask me. And the project represents nothing more than the city's shakedown of a developer for some jizya. Exhibit A? The "iconic 90 ft steel tower resembling a minaret".

The local authority also intends to erect new arches along Brick Lane, all paid for by £8.6 million ‘planning gain’ cash from the nearby Bishops Square development on the ‘City Fringe’ near Liverpool Street station.

“It’s important developers give something back to the community,” said Cllr Rahman. “The council planning team makes sure their contributions offset the disruption and additional pressures their developments place on our services.”

The cash from Bishops Square, one of the largest single payments from a developer ever received by a local authority, is also paying for open spaces on the nearby Chicksand and Holland housing estates and a new building for Osmani Youth Centre.

Minaret rocket Update:

Here's a better view of how the minaret "iconic 90 ft steel tower" will look. Oh, and my bad. I neglected to mention the project's installation of a series of arches - designed to resemble a hijab.

From the Sunday Express:

The odd looking minaret has just been put up outside London’s most famous mosque, a building whose appearance until now has remained unchanged during previous spells as a Huguenot church, a Methodist chapel and as a Jewish synagogue. Arches as muslim hijab

The structure will be joined soon at either end of the street by two arches that have been designed to look like Muslim hijabs.

Wales to get first Sharia court?

They will if the camel with its nose under the tent MUSLIM ARBITRATION TRIBUNAL has its way!

From the al-Beeb:

Wales could get its first court based on Islamic law under proposals from a Muslim body, BBC Wales has learned. A Sharia law tribunal in Cardiff will help community relations and give some Muslims services they want, supporters have told the Dragon's Eye programme.

But the Ministry of Justice said that Sharia law "has no jurisdiction in England and Wales". A spokesperson said: "Regardless of religious belief we are all equal before the law".

Some commentators, such as the think-tank Civitas, say a Muslim arbitration tribunal undermines the concept of one law for UK citizens. A women's group said it was not needed and women may not be treated fairly.

A tribunal has been proposed for the middle of next year, and its backers say it will bring the law and Muslim faith together. There are already seven such tribunals in England when two parties facing marital, financial and other disputes come before experts in Islamic and UK law.

UK: Gordon Brown snubbed by soldiers curtain protest.

Gordon brown and the swastika God bless them. (President Obama please take note. Read the comments!)

<--- Per Kyros at ROA: This is not photoshopped!

From The Times UK: (h/t FReeper mware.)

Gordon Brown was snubbed by badly injured Afghan veterans when they closed curtains round their beds during a hospital visit and refused to speak to him.

More than half the soldiers being treated at the Selly Oak hospital ward in Birmingham either asked for the curtains to be closed or deliberately avoided the prime minister, according to several of those present.

The soldiers, who have sustained some of the worst injuries seen in Afghanistan, described his visit as “opportunistic” and a “waste of time”. Furious about equipment shortages and poor compensation for their injuries, one soldier said: “It is almost as if we are the product of an unwanted affair ... he has done nothing for us.”
