'Toenail problems' force Hamza to miss court date

No, this is not a parody. From the Times Online, with thanks to libbysmom:

The Islamic cleric Abu Hamza refused to appear on a video link to the Old Bailey to face terrorism charges today, after complaining that his toenails were too long.

Mr Hamza, the former Imam of Finsbury Park mosque in North London, had been due to enter pleas to 16 charges, including soliciting murder, via a camera link to the court while he sat in a special room at Belmarsh Prison, South London.

But as the Recorder of London Judge Peter Beaumont, barristers and police waited in vain at the Old Bailey for Mr Hamza to appear on screen, a prison officer warned them that he was refusing to leave his cell.

The officer said: "He is refusing to come over here. He is being checked over by medical staff. He is saying he is unable to walk."

Paul Hynes, Mr Hamza's defence counsel, said: "He has been perambulating around the prison bare foot for the last couple of days. It is a long-standing problem."

Mr Hynes said that the defence was not ready, in any case, to enter pleas.

Adina Ezekiel, prosecuting, said: "The Crown do have some concerns. He is complaining his toenails are too long."

What a crock of crap and a waste of taxpayer money it is to dely for this reason and and what a joke this evil creep is making of western justice.

With hook hands, he obviously can't clip his toe-nails, but why not just strap him in a Hannibal lecter-like gurney and wheel him into court.

What a pathetic joke.

You mean he doesnt see a beutician ever week while in Jail? What a flagrant violation of his UN universal human right to look hot and funky!!! Abu obviously needs a total makeover...maybe there should be a "The Queer eye for the Jihadi(Abu Hamza) guy".

His toenails are too long? Must be a Zionist Conspiracy.

Simple solution under Shariah law: cut off his feet.

Pull them out without anaesthetics!

What is even more pathetic is that the dhimmi Poms yield to this nonsense.

Why didn't I think of that the last time I had to appear in traffic court!?

'Toenail problems' force Hamza to miss court date

What they failed to mention was the fact that the toenails were growing out of his forehead.

Leveller,

Pull them out without anaesthetics!

I had that done to one of my great toe nails as a teenager, but with anesthetics. Very painful to the point of being incapacitated from walking for a number of days. Not a good way to get Hamza into court. But I'm sure the TSA could have provided the Brish jail with a myriad of confiscated nail clippers, if only they'd asked.

Same here, Rick! They froze my toe and then yanked the nail out with pliers. Very painful operation.

leveller,

Yes, they froze it and yanked it out. But I wouldn't call it an operation. It was more like a procedure. But, granted, a very painful procedure.


Maybe while their at it they could give his a bath and wash his hair,by the looks of him he hasn't seen soap for about 3 decades.
It's actually quite funny that a man with one eye and hooks for hands is lecturing non-muslims of the curses from Allah for not following the Quran and Islam. Abu Hamxa is a poster-person for birth control methods and after seeing some of the Arab women I can see why they prefer them to cover their faces,it's easier to tell the men from the women.

More tales of the bizarre:

Toenail clipping under islam

SEQUENCE TO BE FOLLOWED IN CLIPPING OF THE FINGER AND TOE NAILS

Pairing of the fingernails should begin at the SHAHAADAT finger (index finger of the right hand). The nails of the balance three fingers (of the right hand) should be clipped next in order. Thereafter continue with the small finger of the left hand and complete the remaining fingers and thumb in sequence. Lastly, clip the nail of the right thumb. Clipping of the toenails should begin at the small toe of the RIGHT foot and end at the small toe of the LEFT foot in order.

http://www.inter-islam.org/Actions/Part4.html#Sequence%20to%20be%20followed%20in%20clipping%20the%20nails

I read that the Brits even pay somebody to wipe Captain Hook's ass for him. What a demeaning job. I guess it's against "human rights" law for Hook to have a dirty butt.

Great, Islamic instruction on the order in which the nails are to be pared.

It's not a religion, it's an instruction manual for obsessive-compulsives.

As for Hamza, don't they have any CATTLE PRODS in Britain?

Well !! I can't get my breath...
This is the extent to which PC has infiltrated everything. Anybody else ( non Muz)would have been dragged to court cuffed.
He's costing the tax payer 10s of thousands.
Blair should have let you guys in the States have him years ago, and got him tried in one of your nice little states that still has capital punishment, and sent the slimy swine to his Allah.

This obese, sweaty, one eyed, hook handed criminal is worried about his nasty toenails being too long?

Scoop him up in the bucket of a bobcat, take him to the shipyard, load his fat ass up, and haul him where he's supposed to go.

That, or shoot him and put everyone out of their misery. Long toenails on a heffer like this should never be confused with the tusks of an elephant, which are actually worth something.

We want death penalty for the Hamza´s rubbish

Look, behead this muderous Slimeball according to
Islamic Tradition and he won't have to worry about his toenails! And British Taxpayers won't have to shell out more pounds on keeping Hamza alive : they're already paying over a thousand pounds a week to keep his new missus and her tribe of brats [ugh imagine having sex with Hamza] in a palatial home no ordinary Brits could afford on Social Security.Abu SlimeBuBu Hamza should NEVER have got into Britain in the first place!! He ought to have been handed over to America years ago [Yemen wants him too].Whole affair is a crying scandal and affront to any Briton paying for a Murderer to continue Jihad in a country that gave him refuge. WAKE UP DHIMMI BRITAIN!!

No doubt we could find room for him at Gitmo.

Hey everyone,

Sorry I haven't answered your e-mails yet. I will soon. The flu has struck and I can't seem to get too far from the bed. I want my Mommy and chicken soup, NOW!

I will post an update real fast,

1. Mike is going to get information together on the various church headquarters/and information on violence against women.

2. Rabbit is putting together a web site we can use to post information, etc.

3. Son of walker is getting the leaflets together.

4. Rublev is going to get information together and format a letter for us on stricter immigration laws to send out to Congress.

5.Rikki is ready to distribute material in England.

6. Kelly mentioned getting a library project together to counter the project that CAIR has to place books on Islam in them.

We still need the following:

Someone to look into the day time talk shows, suggest a show to Oprah on reporters and authors getting sued for questioning Islam by CAIR. Suggest a panel, Robert, Daniel Pipes, Andrew Whithead etc.

Someone to look up information on "friendly" free press sites/web sites that we can submit articles by Robert, Hugh and DC Watson, plus other contributors from the site.

If Andrew is available, I'd like to get him to gather information on quotes from the Quran and quotes from various Muslim leaders. Show cause and effect on how the Quran is used to incite violence.

Someone to look into radio talk shows. Again we need to see what "friendly" sites there are to get Robert on them.

Throughout Europe and Australia, we need to get the same sort of information from members there.

From Canada, if Shiek Canuck and Ala Sux could put togeter information on Sharia law and how it will effect Canandian law and the loss of freedoms. Cause and effect.

I'd like to try to have everything by Mid-March, to pass along to everyone and start distribution of all the information we have.

I know there is more, but I can't get my brain wrapped around it.

I'm heading back to bed, will check in later.

I made a mistake in the update: Rublev is putting together info on Islam being taught in our schools, we still need someone to put something together on immigration.

For all the posters on the site, the following is what we're doing and we still need people to research out information and put some things together.

I'll start this off with some ideas I've had bouncing around my brain.

1.We need someone to contact all the daytime talk shows. Ophrah has a link on her site for suggestion for upcoming shows. The topic should be censorship of reporters/authors that question Islam and the Quran.
a. Give examples of lawsuits and reporters that have been fired (mainly in England this has happened)
b. Suggest the panel (Robert, Daniel Pipes, Andrew Whitehead, etc.)
c. Daytime talk shows have the highest veiwer percentage and the longest time period.

2. It's great to have the quotes from the Quran, but they really don't mean anything unless we can show exactly how it's used to incite violence and supression of rights.
a. we need someone to link the quotes with statements from religious leaders and show cause and effect of these statements. (I'll explain later how this will be used)

3. Mike, I told you I'd be calling on you! We need research into where all the national offices are for the various Christian/Jewish/Hindu etc. churches. All denominations.
a. Also need someone to put together a letter, explaining how Islam has no tolaration for other religions and provide background information. Again quotes from the Quran and news links of church burnings, forced conversions, etc.

4.Forward over any links anyone has to Islam being taught in our schools. Rublev has offered to put together the information to send out to the Secretary of Education.
a. Please inclose where books have used provided by the Saudis, 1 example was the book that stated that North America was founded by Muslims and the length of time this incorrect information was actually taught. I believe it was for 2 years.

5.If someone could put together an on-line petition to stop the teaching of the Quran in our schools. State the separation of "Church and State", explain that it is indocternination with religious text, give examples where Islamic leaders have stated how our children are targeted.

6. We need someone to research out "Friendly news sites" Free Press Newspapers/web-sites, etc, where we can send articles by Robert, Hugh, Dc Watson and others on the site. This is where the quotes and links in no. 2 will come in. At the end of each article, we need to show exactly how the Quran is a call to violence against anyone who is not Muslim. Otherwise, people don't get it. Include the idea of a worldwide Caliphate and how that plays into most of the conflicts we now have worldwide.

7.Book slush fund. We need to earmark some funds for this. We have people in Europe that are willing to translate and get the information out to like minded people in their respective countries.

8.Need someone to put together information on violence against women in Islam.
a. Honor killings, rape of non-muslim women, forced conversions, female mutilations.
b. A list of all feminist groups- worldwide. I have seen far too many women from these groups try to explain that violence against women is NOT a common thing. It's time they get some education on this subject.

9.We need a form letter put together stating that tougher immigration laws are needed. Again give examples of how Europe is being over run and show the cause and effect on the cultures, the push for Sharia law in many countries and the freedoms lost due to this. Also, link in stories of border crossings and the stats on what percentage is Middle Eastern. This will be sent out out to every member of Congress.

10.I will forward the leaflets over as soon as I get them.

11. For those in Europe and other areas, also forward over the links and information you have on each of the above mentioned topics. We can customize the information to help you.

Please, offer suggestions or criticisms as you see fit. The whole idea of this was to come up with viable ways to DO something.

Susan_b

He's just giving the West a great big middle finger. Showing his lack of respect for our institutions, our society - even though he's happy to feed off it for years, like a leech or a parasite.

I heard he has a personal nurse. Why wouldn't the nurse clip his nails for him? (Ugh! What a nasty job that would be! I hope he/she's paid a lot.) Or did he deliberately not have his nails clipped, planning this revolting display of disrespect all along? I'm sure there'll be other excuses & dramas in future. No doubt the old 'heart palpitations' will send the poor dear into hospital the next time he has to appear in court. It's all lies. But then, lies are a virtue in Islam. His conscience is clear.

Calling Monty Python! Calling Mr. Bean!

I can see the makings of Andrew Lloyd Weber's next musical extravanganza:

"The Chitin of the Old Bailey"

in which a crippled, hateful creature rises from the underworld to mock and torment the Brits with his perverse sense of mad and ridiculous demands.

Title song:

"The Magic of the Music of the Nails"

and including: "Tiptoe Through the Bloody Tulips", "Fun-Gus, and the Law of Courting Opposites", "I'm a Heel, So Sue Me!", "Hook, Line & Sucker", and the moving duet at the Coda:
"The Chador of Your Smile".

That the English don't use their own feet to kick this silly s.o.b. into the dock is their folly.

When did they start putting up with such insanity in the U.K. instead of laughing it out of existence?

Or, as Oscar Wilde put it:

"A man cannot be too careful in his choice of enemies."

I think that the logical thing to do is to cut his feet off. Gets rid of toenail problem and it'll match his hooks. What a filthy dirty bum! Hang the freak and his mummy boyfriend!!

:The Chador Of Your Smile"

I am just ROFL, profitsbeard. Well done!

HAMZA GETS £30,000 NURSE.. TO WIPE HIS BUM

Jul 2 2004


Jail aid as cleric gets new hooks on NHS

By Nathan Yates


TERROR suspect Abu Hamza has been given new hooks on the NHS - and a £30,000-a-year nurse to wipe his backside in jail.

The Muslim extremist, who has no hands, was fitted with special £5,000 replacement hooks because it was feared his original metal ones could be used as weapons.

HOOK: Hamza

He is unable to clean himself as he could do himself an injury. So prison officials have hired a male nurse named Harry to perform the task.

A prison source said: "He's known as 'Dirty Harry'. This guy has got one of the worst jobs in the world. His main reason for being there is to clean Hamza's backside. Everyone's having a laugh about it. But Hamza can't be left unclean. It would be a health hazard."

Hamza is being held in top-security Belmarsh jail, in South East London, as the US attempts to extradite him on terror charges.

The nurse - recruited from a private agency - spends up to two hours a day with him.

His other duties include helping the 47-year-old cleric to wash, cut his toenails, clip his beard and change his clothes.

Although employed mainly to look after Hamza, "Harry" performs similar duties for another inmate who lost his limbs. Hamza, the former rabble-rousing preacher at Finsbury Park mosque, North London, is said to have lost both hands and an eye in a bomb blast in Afghanistan.

His old hooks were removed when he was first locked up in May. The new ones, designed so they cannot be used as weapons, were fitted on Tuesday.

The source added: "They were specially made for him and fitted on the NHS. They're much better than his old ones. With his nurse, it's costing a fortune to look after him."

Hamza, who is still getting used to the new hooks, did not wear them when he appeared in a magistrate's court on a video link from jail yesterday. Instead, he wiped his forehead with his stumps. Egyptian-born Hamza, who has British citizenship, is being held in Belmarsh's Category A unit, which houses some of Britain's most dangerous inmates.

The unit contains 32 prisoners in single cells. Among them are al-Qaeda suspects and Nazi nailbomb killer David Copeland. None is allowed to mix with other inmates.

No one has ever escaped from Belmarsh which is hailed as the most secure jail in Europe. It was originally designed to house IRA terrorists.

The Prison Service refused to discuss Hamza. A spokeswoman said: "We do not comment on individual prisoners."


susan_b :


I have found several Islamic sites that prove
Shariah-Law is a goal for Muslims to make it the rule-of law for them in Canada,there's eve a Shariah-camp website that appears to be backed by the Saudis since it insists Wahabbism based Countries will be the source for defining the
use of Shariah-law in Canada.
CAIR and the C.I.C. are proponents demanding it for Family disputes but this is a ruse to allow Shariah to get a foothold in the Courts,next will be the school's,workplaces,hospitals,Governments,halal foods everywhere.and so on.

You'll laugh at the fact that Sheema Khan (new head of a civil rights board) works at CAIR-Canada and insists hear hijab is liberating and Shariah will give even more rights and Justice far above our Charter and Constitution.
Shemma Khan berated a female muslim on a TV show for not wearing the Hijab,while she touts it as a choice she won't remove it in public to prove it's a free-will choice.

I'll certainly look for some links of interest
and even save articles from the local newspapers.


Allah-sucks Bigtime!

The article above posted by Prince Harry says Hamza's £30 000 a year nurse is there not just to clean his backside, but to cut his toenails, etc. So how come his toe nails are too long?

TREATMENT OF BRITISH PRISONERS BY MUSLIMS

We may not unfittingly take a memoir written by Captain Campbell, who fell into the clutches of Hyder Ali (Tipu’s father / Tipu Sultan = Muslim national hero of India ) about the year 1780. His story and others quoted below were gathered together in a book entitled THE GOOD OLD DAYS OF JOHN COMPANY written by W. Carey and printed in Calcutta in the 1870’s.
After enduring remarkable sufferings, he escaped and managed to memorialize his depressing experiences in writing. On his voyage from the Persian Gulf he was shipwrecked on the south-western coast of India, and together with a few survivors was taken prisoner by Hyder’s officers. A young man named Hall shared Campbell’s sufferings. These despondent men were cast on shore in a state of near nudity, and in that condition were carried before the governor of the place. On their journey into the interior, they were served with only boiled rice and that sparingly twice a day, and at night were obliged to lie on the bare ground. When they arrived they were put into a dungeon where their sufferings were considerably increased. Hall was soon prostrated by dysentery, and after some days' suffering ended his career. Campbell and Hall had been yoked together by their inhuman jailer, and no representations, no entreaties, could induce the thug to release them from their tethers, though it was very apparent that Hall was in a dying state. Campbell continued chained to a rotting corpse. Putrefaction came on, as in Eastern climes it ever does, with fearful rapidity; and still the inhuman captor sternly refused to listen to the pleas for mercy. At length, when the corpse was in such a state as to render it difficult to remove in a compact mass of corruption, the fetters were loosed.
Campbell's sufferings having reached their climax, now, began somewhat to abate; the rigor of. his captivity by degrees relaxed, and he at last effected his escape. The record is one, indeed, of almost incredible sufferings - the details of most, revolting in character; and the inhumanity recorded difficult to understand. These men were not even prisoners of war; they were not taken with arms in their hands; they were a set of helpless men, cast by the elements on an inhospitable shore, their sufferings endured almost in secrecy, and unknown by their friends, could not have acted as warnings to others. They were tortured from a mere love of cruelty - seemingly aiming at nothing beyond the gratification of a ferocious sadism.
As a specimen of the cruelties inflicted by Tipu Sultan on the English prisoners who had fallen into his hands, we will quote the evidence of Colonel Braithwaite who had been set free after a long imprisonment. During the life of the late Nabob, Hyder Ally, he had been exceedingly well treated, but at the accession of his son, Tippoo Sultan, he was immediately removed from the camp to Seringapatam (a river island). At this time he was exceedingly ill with ague and fever, and endeavoured, by remonstrances, to delay his departure until the fit was over, but to no effect; he was put in a palanquin, and carried to Seringapatam. On his arrival there, he was shut up in a dark dungeon, where he remained for many months, without seeing or speaking to any one except his guard. At length he obtained permission for a Mr. Holmes to be confined with him, and in this situation he remained without ever seeing daylight, except once a week, when the barber came to shave them.
When the order arrived for their removal, on the late treaty taking place, he was informed that a palanquin and other conveniences were waiting at a Choultry about the distance of two miles: but this was like every other promise. On their arrival at the Choultry, they found a miserable cart and 15 skinny native horses, for about forty prisoners, the majority of whom had been wounded, and for want of proper assistance, were still bleeding, which rendered them incapable to ride; but hopes of relief supported their drooping spirits. In this situation were they conducted for upwards of 70 miles, without tents or other covering than the canopy of heaven, and driven by their merciless guard like a herd of cattle. When they arrived at Bangalore the colonel was again separated from his fellow-sufferers and confined as before.
Bad, as their treatment may have been, it was frivolous in comparison with the state of Lieutenants Speediman and Rutledge who, in the dead of night, were taken from their confinement, and carried away to a remote part of the town, and after being forced to drink a somniferous drink, were tied up, circumcised and dressed in Moorish attire. Still refusing to take up arms against their country they were burdened with chains, and forced to teach Carnatic slaves the British artillery drills.
Another interesting narrative is the ‘captivity, sufferings and escape of James Scurry, who was detained a prisoner during ten years in the dominions of Hyder Ali and Tippoo Saib.' Scurry was a young man on board the Hannibal in 1780, when to the east of the Cape he had the bad luck to be taken captive by the French navy. With the other prisoners he was disembarked at Cuddalore, and the French admiral, to his eternal shame, delivered over the whole party to the tender mercies of Hyder Ali. In the first instance they were taken to the fort of Chillenbroom, but were soon moved off to Bangalore. ‘No butcher ever drove oxen with more cruelty than they were driven.’ After a march of twenty-one days, they reached their destination, and then the crew was divided, and Scurry, with other prisoners, carried off to Burrampore. For day they were fed upon rice, then their warders changed their diet to ragee, the flour of which is nearly as black as coal. ‘This no doubt’, Scurry says, ‘occasioned the death of numbers of our poor fellows, who died in excruciating agonies, which I think would not have been the case if they had had medical assistance - but they might as well have asked for mountains of gold as anything of this nature.’ Out of this reduced number, however a small company of boys was formed - fifteen in number - who were soon amalgamated with corps of other boys from other parties of prisoners, until they were fifty-two in number. They were then carried off to Seringapatam, where having been well drugged with magun, they were formally ‘mahomedanised’; dressed out in Eastern attire, and formed into a unit. On the death of Hyder, this British battalion was incorporated with Tippoo's slave regiments. Previously Ali had shown them some consideration, they were even referred to as ‘Hyder's children’, however the moderate thoughtfulness which had before been shown to them soon degenerated into cruel and humiliating treatment once Tipu had the reigns of power. The following extract contains a sample: -

"Once we were kept without food for two days, and conscious we had done nothing to deserve it, we sallied forth to the durbar (a seat of justice so called) in order to exhibit a complaint of our grievances to the Killadar; but Abdel Gunney, to whom we have adverted, learning our intentions, was before us and intimated to the Killadar to take care of his person, for that we were coming in a body, and he knew not for what purpose. This alarmed the governor; and we no sooner arrived than we were surrounded by a battalion of sepoys, and our interpreter, Clark, a Lieutenant in the Company's service, who had begun to speak, was knocked down and beaten in a most shocking manner. While he lay on the ground, they put him in heavy irons, and took him away, nor do I recollect ever seeing him afterwards. All this time we were secured by the sepoys, who had orders to prime and load, and to fix their bayonets; and all this against 52 defenceless boys. We were seized and each of us was bound with two new ropes, confining our hands behind us; and, to make us secure, a strong man enclosed our arms, and with his knee almost dislocated our shoulders; many of us had the marks in our arms for some years after. This done we were wheeled to the right, then to the left, by the myre or adjutant, in broken English, who would frequently, in the most contemptuous manner, cry out 'General Mathews,' - 'Colonel Baily,' - 'Captain Ramney,'- and repeat the names of many officers they then had in their custody, of whom I shall very soon give the reader an accurate account. We were hauled in this degrading manner, until I and several more fainted; when I came to myself, we were all seated on the ground. I was bound between two lads, both midshipmen of the Hannibal, who told me, when I fell they fell, with most of the rest, those who did not, informed us that so many falling, they were ordered to sit down. The skin of our breasts was like a drum head, and I am conscious to this day, if it had not been for the humanity of the duroga: an officer equal to a sergeant, in slackening the ropes about 12 o'clock at night, very few would have survived till, the morning. This was, done on his part at great risk; may God reward him for it!
Not contented with shaving and circumcising us youths, the Musalmans scalded us in huge coppers to boil the impurities off their bodies. The reason assigned for this was that, we had eaten a large quantity of pork in our time and were therefore unclean.
The next day we were ordered to be untied one by one, and our heads to be again shaved, which was performed; our ears also were bored, and a slave's mark was put in each of us. This being done, we were prohibited from speaking to each other in English, under pain of severe punishment. We were then marched, or led crawling rather to our square, where they gave those who could immediately make use of it, some food. Here we met every day, - more or less, with severe treatment, until the year 1784, when a peace was concluded between the East India Company and Tippoo."
