Rachid Ramda Update. "Terrorist mastermind who was granted asylum in Britain for 10 years is jailed for life for Paris bombings," by Peter Allen for the Daily Mail, October 14 (thanks to Alfred):
A terrorist mastermind who was harboured by the British government as an asylum seeker for more than ten years has finally been sent to prison for life.
Rachid Ramda, 39, pointed his fingers skyward and shouted 'I'm innocent - praise Allah' as a Paris appeal court confirmed his sentence for a series of attacks on the city's underground system which left eight dead and hundreds injured.
He will now spend a minimum of 22 years behind bars, with France's Advocate General Anne Vosgien saying he should 'never be given the chance to reoffend again'.
Despite being a prime suspect for the 1995 bombing of the St Michel Metro station, Algerian-born Ramda was granted political asylum in Britain soon afterwards.
Although he was imprisoned while in the UK, his time there caused a diplomatic protest, with the French dubbing the capital 'Londonistan' because of its reputation for sheltering Muslim terrorists.
It was not until after the 7/7 attacks on the London Underground in 2005 that Ramda was finally sent back to France to face trial.
In 2007, French anti-terrorist judges ruled he was a leading member of the Armed Islamic Group (GIA), which carried out at least three attacks on the French capital's Metro stations, including St Michel, Musee d'Orsay and Maison-Blanche.
During a two-day appeal hearing against his conviction, Paris's Special Assizes Court heard how evidence against Ramda included a London bank payment slip bearing his signature and finger prints.
It had been used to fund the 1995 murders.
In 1993, Ramda was sentenced to death in absentia in Algiers following a bomb attack on the city's airport in which nine people died.
He escaped to Britain, where he was kept under surveillance and was arrested in November 1995 before being granted asylum.
He said he was a refugee from what he described as political repression in Algeria.
As well as the airport bombing in his home country, which was in political turmoil at the time, he was wanted for numerous other attacks against what he viewed as oppressive forces. [...]
I'm innocent - praise Allah'
Eight dead and hundreds of injured kufr makes a mahoundian not only innocent from a mahound-worshipping point of view, but it also makes him one of those tapeworms that consider Mein Qurampf 33:21 the cornerstone of their lives.
Somalia, the Beqaa Valley and Britain-places to go for sanctuary after committing terrorist attacks on non-combatants. Time to spin my "Battle of Britain" DVD again to remind myself that the current multicultural dementia in the UK is completely out of kilter with the rest of its history. I guess we should be grateful that a sentence was handed down at all, considering Anjem Choudary has more religious freedom there than the Church of England.
Rachid Ramda, 39, pointed his fingers skyward and shouted 'I'm innocent - praise Allah'...
Mahoundians are always innocent...no matter how depraved and brutal their actions...In fact Mahoundians are the only innocent people...everyone else is a guilty kufr...
Rachid Ramda, 39, pointed his fingers skyward and shouted 'I'm innocent - praise Allah'
I believe that the government of France has a different viewpoint.
"It was not until after the 7/7 attacks on the London Underground in 2005 that Ramda was finally sent back to France to face trial."
So as long as there was no major Muslim attack in Great Britain itself -- apparently, having Richard Reid try to blow up Americans and British over the ocean did not count -- the authorities in Great Britain were willing to keep, in mild British detention, free from French justice, this murderer Rachid Ramda. It was only after the attack in London on July 7, 2005, that the British government decided to stop being so solicitous of Muslims, and so indifferent to the requests of French justice.
Of course, look on the bright side. Had Rachid Ramda's victims been only Israelis or other Jews then, as with the Achille Lauro hijackers and others, he might have been freed altogether. The deplorable record of Great Britain is -- still more deplorably -- not unique.
In prison for at least 22 years? Why not dead for all time? Not having capital punishment for someone like this piece of vermin who kills and maims en masse is not indicative of an enlightened state but rather one which suffers from false compassion and moral timidity. Having the death penalty for certain heinous crimes is not evidence of barbarism but rather absolute justice. In fact, not having it is itself arguably immoral, as in this case.
I'm innocent - praise Allah.
He's right. If we're not in a position to punish Islam then we're in no position to punish him as a Moslem activist. By the dark light of today's Islam Fictive Reality, Monsieur Ramda did nothing wrong and should be freed forthwith.
Sarkozy might even want to host a parade for him down the Champs Elysees,Moammar-style. It would be such a grand moment, so filled with meaning and heartfelt emotion for everybody.
*** 47:33 ***
This double standard is hypocritical and illogical. If Islam is innocent, then so is Ramda. Either set us free or set him free.
Is Obama a Sunni Muslim?
http://english.pravda.ru/opinion/columnists/109871-0/
As many of us in Russia have noted, America, under the so called "peace" loving Barack Obama, has become much more militant towards Iran than even the "Decider" Bush ever was. For all the talk of talking and meeting, the propaganda and rhetoric spilling forth from the US is directly setting the stage for war and nothing else.
At first thought, one may consider that oil is to low and the US is trying to hammer the cost up to raise profits for its own oil giants, but this reasoning seems rather hollow. However, as more and more seem to realize the true nature of the American president, the more obvious reason emerges.
For many people, it is becoming obvious that once more America is leading the West, by setting a new trend: America is the first Western nation under the rulership of a Muslim and more specifically a Sunni Muslim. Outside the fact that Obama's father was Muslim, a Somalie black Arab, to be specific and his step father was Muslim, a Pakistani Sunni, and the fact that he studied as a child in Madras, there can be no doubt that he is a Muslim. It is Islamic Shari law that any child or bride of a Muslim is thus themselves a Muslim, which is why Solemn Rushdie is condemned as a apostate or heretic Muslim, even though he has never practiced the faith: but his parents did.
Further, it is state in the Koran, that apostates must be put to death, and if Obama had left the faith, surely some one out there, by now, would be issuing Fatawas against him. Since there is an absolute lack of such, it can only be concluded that there is no need for them, due to the fact of his faith.
Volume 4, Book 52, Number 260:
Narrated Ikrima:
Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn ‘Abbas, who said, “Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, ‘Don’t punish (anybody) with Allah’s Punishment.’ No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, ‘If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.’
Sahih al-Bukhari Haddith
Volume 9, Book 83, Number 17:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
Allah’s Apostle said, “The blood of a Muslim who confesses that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am His Apostle, cannot be shed except in three cases: In Qisas for murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and the one who reverts from Islam (apostate) and leaves the Muslims.“
Sahih al-Bukhari Haddith
They long that ye should disbelieve even as they disbelieve, that ye may be upon a level (with them). So choose not friends from them till they forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) then take them and kill them wherever ye find them, and choose no friend nor helper from among them.
Koran 4:089
Thus, if we accept the fact or supposition that Obama is a Sunni Muslim, as thus are his wife and children, it can be seen that America is once again leading the West, in degenerating its Christian roots and civilization and throwing out everything that was fought in defense of for the past 1300 years. But as the American president said in Cairo and as I have often stated; America is no longer a Christian nation or anything actually resembling one.
But, dear reader, I digress. Back to the question at hand: if Obama is a Sunni, this will go a long to explaining the new ever more militant stand of the Americans toward Iran, a nation of Shiite Muslims, the age old enemies of Sunnis. This is a hatred that sprung from a schism amongst Muslims following the very death of their prophet about how the succession should work: hereditary by Shiite standards or elected (as in he who grabs the most power and destroys the most enemies) by Sunni standards.
As such, America may be the only Sunni Islamic or rather pseudo Sunni Islamic nation that can stop the Shiite Iranians. Thus the American will go from enabling Sunni Jihad in places such as our own southern Russia, Turkey, Bosnia, southern Serbia, Albania, Egypt, Sudan, Eritrea, Kenya, Israel, Lebanon and so on, to actually leading a Jihad, quite a move forward in the route to full conversion of the dhimi population.
This may also explain why the American forces are suddenly in no hurry to leave Iraq, after all, a sudden or any departure would fully enthrone Shiites in power in Iraq, a thought that a Sunni Muslim such as Obama, surely can not ingest.
As a nation, Russia should now do several things: prepare for and deal with a rising surge of Jihad that is surely in one way or another sponsored by the Sunnis in charge of America, and indeed that Jihad has suddenly resurged, most notably this year, where it was all but destroyed and only sparking occasionally for the past 5 years. Russia must also, along with an alliance of other Orthodox nations, push forth in missionary work in America, as only the Orthodox Church remains true enough to Christ's faith and morally strong enough to fight off and conquer against Islam. If that fails, than she must be prepared to evacuate the faithful and any willing to convert, from the new American Caliphate that is forming under our very gaze.
It's disgraceful this reputation of Britain for being so protective of Islamic terrorists & Islamic freeloading opportunists with their insane asylum policies. How can the Brits stand their sellout government?
The BBC, The Guardian, Jacqui Smith, Jack Straw, Blair with his Qur'an that he carried around and so impressed him, the malevolent Robert Fisk, the influence of so many rich Gulf Arabs -- including of course those from Mr. Big himself, Saudi Arabia -- who run a kind of civilisational interference for the unrich, on-the-dole, aggressive Pakistani Muslims who make life extremely difficult for the indigenous ritish, and all non-Muslim immigrants too, in Bradford, in Leeds, in Manchester, wherever their numbers become enough to allow them to swagger about in what have become pockets, in Great Britain, of Dar al-Islam.
... in Bradford, in Leeds, in Manchester, wherever their numbers become enough to allow them to swagger about in what have become pockets, in Great Britain, of Dar al-Islam.
We'd be remiss here to not mention the most tragic case of all, Birmingham.
*** 5:51 ***
Make that Birmingham England, not Birmingham Alabama, although I'm sure the latter is well in to the process of systematic self-destruction also.
And let us not forget Detroit and Oklahoma City.
Another Jihadist from North Africa educated by France's liberal secular educational system, this time at l'Institut Polytechnique?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachid_Ramda
If Islam is not the problem, then something must be terribly wrong with the French educational system to create these anti-social psychopaths from it institutes of higher learning.
Rachid Ramda, 39, pointed his fingers skyward and shouted 'I'm innocent - praise Allah' as a Paris appeal court confirmed his sentence for a series of attacks on the city's underground system which left eight dead and hundreds injured.
................
Any Westerner would conclude from this that Ramda--honestly or not--was proclaiming that he was not involved with the attacks with which he is charged, but this is likely not the case at all.
Ramda likely considers himself responsible only for the murder of Infidels in France (and for "apostates" in Algeria), and so, as a Muslim, considers himself "innocent"--while Infidels and "apostates", no matter how decent they may be, are always and ever "guilty" from an Islamic point of view.
How can the Brits stand their sellout government?
We can't!!
I for one am not ready to surrender to Islam yet.
We have an election next year but unfortunately there is only one party in th UK who dares to address the issues of Islamic invasion and it is not one of the main three.
.
Then you have to vote for that party, regardless of whether it is "one of the three". More voters and new members can also steer that party in a more British mainstream direction, ie.. dump the anti-semitism, if there is any.
.
Dear Wellington, I couldn't agree more. In spite of being in general against capital punishment I think when Mohammedans are concerned, we Europeans have to say good-bye to the good old humanitarian idea that nobody should be deported to a country where capital punishment and/or torture awaits them. Why should the French waste the French taxpayers' money? Get that scum on a plane to Algeria and you only pay once. The Algerians will give him a very warm welcome and take care of him. The same holds for the Uighurs in Guantánamo, they should be deported to China. BTW a never saw any Mohammedan, not even the "moderate" ones protest against the beheading of Daniel Pearl.
Hugh mentions Robert Fisk, but left out the Independent which publishes Fisk’s writing on the dangers of depleted uranium.
The Independent will publish stories with headlines that do not relate to the body of the article. Such as:
“Secret memo shows Israel knew Six Day War was illegal”
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/secret-memo-shows-israel-knew-six-day-war-was-illegal-450410.html
The Independent is also where you can find Johann Hari, the gay journalist who seduces Neo-Nazis, and jihadis, and then writes about it as “undercover work”.
http://www.johannhari.com/archive/article.php?id=201
He has defended the Somali pirates. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/johann-hari/you-are-being-lied-to-abo_b_155147.html
“Pirates have never been quite who we think they are. In the "golden age of piracy" - from 1650 to 1730 - the idea of the pirate as the senseless, savage thief that lingers today was created by the British government in a great propaganda-heave.”
Today Hari tells us:
“Britain is facing the real risk today of a bombing campaign that targets random civilians for death – but it is being virtually ignored. . . The campaign I am talking about is not being planned by jihadis or fringe Irish nationalists but by white "neo-Nazis" who want to murder Asians, black people, Jews and gays in the bizarre belief it will trigger a "race war".

“The Big Question: Is al-Qa'ida really cash-strapped, and is the threat it poses diminishing?”

The Independent is among the worst newspapers I know of.
"Is Obama a Sunni Muslim?"
I don't know what kind, but he's definitely a Muslim.
Let's stop calling these thugs hyphenated Americans; Somali-Americans, Afghani-Americans, Pakistani-Americans. They are no more American than the usurper in the Oval Office.
How about calling them ungrateful bastards from Somalia?
No: wherever they're from, and wherever they were born, call them 'ungrateful Muslims', and be done with it, for regardless of their ethnolinguistic origins, regardless of what part of the planet they come from, that's the only identity they're supposed to have, if they're Muslim, no matter whether they've been born into the Ummah, or been forced or tricked or lured into joining it (I say 'lured' for there *are* people who happen to have the kind of depraved soul that *admires* and takes pleasure in the psychopathic example of Mohammed the Arab Warlord).
Thus Keith Ellison, though born in the USA, has become an 'ungrateful Muslim'; so has Ingrid Mattson.
Shane Kent and David Hicks are not Aussies any more; they are 'ungrateful Muslims'.
the french jail will not be anything like an American one. No good time ,no lounge with Tv not too many friendly faces either.
