Those employees are the same ones named earlier as members of Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. "British consulate employees in Jerusalem linked to terror attack," by Richard Spencer for the Telegraph, January 3 (thanks to all who sent this in):
Two Palestinians were charged by a court on Sunday with planning a rocket attack on Teddy Stadium, home to the Beitar football team.
Three more Palestinians, two of them maintenance men employed by the British Consulate General, were arrested on suspicion of supplying them with guns. All five were arrested in November but the details have only now emerged following Sunday's court hearing.
A Foreign Office spokesman said that security and vetting procedures were being reviewed. He said all employees were vetted in co-ordination with the Israeli authorities "to a level appropriate to their job".
The Consulate-General plays an important political role in Israel and would be considered a major terrorist target, in common with diplomatic posts elsewhere in the Middle East. However, the authorities have said the men's arrests had "no connection to their work at the consulate".
The two men initially charged over the stadium plot, named as Mussa Hamada and Bassem Omari, were said to be members of Hamas, the militant group that controls the Gaza Strip and is in a state of war with Israel. They were also alleged to have received financial support from the Muslim Brotherhood in Saudi Arabia.
'Palestinians'.
Translation: "local Arab Muslims".
And from the article - "Three more Palestinians [sic: local Arab Muslims - dda], two of them maintenance men employed by the British Consulate General, were arrested ".
**Maintenance men**.
Think of what could happen when someone with access and knowledge of that order, chooses to Go Jihad.
They're nazistinians, not just local Arab squatters, in keeping with the traditions of Amin al-Husseini.
Hmmmmm:I wonder if the U.K. might consider they have a bit of a security problem in their embassies/ consulates if they have muslim employees?
Talking of jihadis working on the inside; the governor of the Punjab, Salman Taseer, has been shot dead today by his *bodyguard* in central Islamabad. He was an outspoken critic of 'militant groups'.

Yes Buraq, and I'm sure you spotted how the Guardian tied 'colonial-era' in with 'blasphemy laws' in the sentence that they mention Aasia Bibi. .
I wonder if anyone knows if M. Zuhdi Jasser is truly an American or if he also secretly has Islamic supremacist aspirations. It seems to me there will be a security issue in any democratic Christian, Jewish, Hindu or Buddhist country that allows Muslims to move into positions of power and authority. If Muslims are not seeking first the "kingdom of Allah and His supremacy," then they are nominal Muslims at best. If they are only nominal Muslims, they are just waiting until they see that their chances for personal success and happiness in this life are better going with Islam or with the modern ways of the country they are now living in. If they are devoted Muslims, they are just pulling the wool over our eyes and they will steel, kill and destroy when they get the chance, just like their true father, the devil.
According to the New York Post, M. Zuhdi Jasser said,
"The idea of the Islamic state must be left for history. It is time to help usher in a modern era for Islam and Muslims. Our national security depends on it."
M. Zuhdi Jasser, a physician and a former US Navy lieutenant commander, is the founder and president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy. info@aifdemocracy.org
