Bin Laden lieutenant killed by British troops

A key jihadist who had escaped from the Americans in Afghanistan. From Reuters:

BRITISH troops in Iraq said they killed one of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden's top global lieutenants, who escaped from a US prison in Afghanistan last year.

Omar Faruq was shot dead while resisting arrest during a raid by about 200 British troops in Iraq's second biggest city, Basra, British military spokesman Major Charlie Burbridge said.

US leaders have described Faruq as the top al-Qaeda operative in South-East Asia. He was caught in Indonesia in 2002 and held at a high-security detention centre at Bagram airbase, north of the Afghani capital Kabul, until his escape last year.

“The individual had been tracked across Iraq and was in hiding in Basra,” Major Burbridge said, calling him a “very, very significant man”.

Faruq, once believed to be the main link between bin Laden's followers and the Jemaah Islamiah militant group blamed for bombings in Indonesia, was one of four men who escaped from Bagram in July last year.

I dont know if anyone is aware of the character Borat in an upcoming film -

Google Borat and you will be amused

What i'm trying to say is he should tour the middle east and try it out on muslims.. it would be so funny -

He could change the character to Bob from America tours Arabia

In America we treat women as equals...
In America we have elections..
In America we are taught love thy neighbour in church...

Then they can pan to the Arabs disgusted faces

Churchill1939:

Apparently, Borat was screened at the recent Toronto International Film Festival. A reviewer friend mentioned it in passing but must have assumed I knew what he was talking about as he didn't enlighten me as to what the movie was about. I will take your suggestion after I finish reviewing this morning's JW/DW postings.

Also screened at the TIFF, a movie named New Moon, made by an Iranian film maker and banned in Iran because it featured women actresses and also showed the persecution of the Iranian Kurds through the story of some musicians who wanted to put on a concert with fellow Kurdish musicians in Iraq.

I know his killing means NOTHING , BUT , I do hope it was painful and slow......and he groveled to the Brits for some western / infidel medicine.....and he cried like the mama boy he was.....and he shat his pants........that kind of thing......

SOMEONE , SOMEWHERE , make a video of these MAMA BOY'S pitiful last moments alive , let's see their glory , their bravado , their crap , as they watch they inners become outers.....

FUCK 'EM

The individual had been tracked across Iraq and was in hiding in Basra,” Major Burbridge said.


Tracked across Iraq? Good...

Good riddance.

Amazing that each one of these pukes are supremicists, right down to your local muslim at the corner store: they believe they are superior and destined to enslave you - all part of the precepts of islam.

It, islam, is abhorrent.

If islam wont reform itself, it must be defeated.

Particularly despicable is an organization like CAIR, seeking to infiltrate the West under the guise of "multiculturism" (the flavour du jour of our own leftists and "liberals').

The front men are dissemblers like Ibrahim who wont be honest and tell the truth about either what he is doing or what islam entails.

Go, Brits!

I suppose now we'll have more outrage from the "peaceful" ones. Oh well, good news is always welcome, no matter how small it is.

If history in our schools were properly taught, instead of revisionist Chomsky-eske absurdities and self-accusing drivel, if every man, woman & child in the west would have learned to critically disseminate truth from trivia and instead of multi-culti-foggy-bottoms stupidity everyone were required to memorize, by heart, these verses by the great Winston Churchill, the Mohammedan invasion and our squeamish appeasement-gymnastics would have taken a different direction.

Here it is again, priceless and more to the point than anything you ever hear in our pathetic "why can't we all just get along" environment:

Winston Churchill


"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men."


"Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die. But the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science - the science against which it had vainly struggled - the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome."

Finally -- some good news, and I hope Bin Laden is next.

OT-

Has anyone else heard what I just heard about the British authorities considering alerting Muslim leaders before conducting future raids?

Has CAIR expanded to the UK too?

Thanks you Brits!

XRDC,
Don't forget to complement this site with sister site, "Dhimmi Watch".

http://www.jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/013284.php

Cheers.

Hooray for the Tommies!

Well done the British troops.

There is a Bloke in the UK called Abu Izzadeen. He is on an internet site looking for some more wives. he link is here...

http://www.newenglishreview.org/blog_direct_link.cfm?blog_id=2291

His email address is ghaziizzadeen@hotmail.com

"THE Muslim extremist who yesterday heckled John Reid roared with laughter at the victims of 9/11 during a sickening internet rant. Abu Izzadeen singled out the image of distraught Marcy Borders covered in dust in the aftermath of the Twin Towers atrocity for his vile attack.

Referring to the fact she was also in the 1993 World Trade Centre bombing, he sneered: "She goes, 'I was here last time as well'. It's so funny, it's so touching." And his audience of unknown British Muslims cracked up when he declared: "That was a day which changed a lot of people's lives, especially those inside the tower."

In the UK layabouts like Izzadeen and Choudhary are paid for each thing that their womenfolk drop. It's what's called a nice little earner at the expense of the Infidel taxpayer. They get about £1500 per month excluding perks, that's about $3000 including free healthcare, medication etc.

So British troops may dispose of Al Qaeda rubbish but there is plenty more being bred over here.

Xero G-

One more coffee and I would've caught that...thank you sir.

Shot while resisting arrest. An excellent reason. Shot while attempting to escape is also a good one. I hope we begin seeing these incidents more often.

When I was about 16 there was a dangerous escapee (convicted of two murders) on the loose for about three weeks. My older, married brother even nailed the windows in his house shut. This particular perp was also "shot while resisting arrest." That phrase was used very often in the Ole South.

Way to go Brits!!
I guess old Omar faruqed up by not surrendering when he had the chance.
I really liked Old Sarge's post a few days ago about it being time for some major Whoop-Ass.
