Treason must be punished by execution (death), if we are to win this war.

Coddling these traitors who unabashedly go about killing the troops and citizens of their host countries. (any Islamic, no matter what his/her citizenship, whether born in that country or abroad, is living in a "host" country.)

If he was a poor moslem who could not afford a plane ticket to Afghanistan might he have just done his jihad duties closer to home ?

Like the poverty stricken neurosurgeon who tried to drive his bomb laden car into Glasgow airport before being turned into a prawn cracker and banjoed by Stephen Clarkson (top marks that man).

What is utterly ridiculous, in my now communist country, is that this traitorous fck only gets four and a half years, and will be out in a year for his attempt to go on a murder holiday.

What sort of a message does that send out?

He should be executed.

When a muslim living in a Western Country takes a "vacation" to Pakistan (or any other muslim country), they should be told that they're not allowed back.

This bit of allowing them to go to training camps and then come back is akin to national suicide.

Years of Crisis Ahead

On December 23 the Telegraph (UK) published an article by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard with the headline, “Crisis may make 1929 look like a ‘walk in the park.’ The article begins, “Twenty billion dollars here, $20 billion there…. Buckets of liquidity are being splashed over the North Atlantic banking system, so far with meager or fleeting effects.” Large banks are in trouble. Huge sums of money are disappearing. The capitalist system is faltering. At the same time, the “former” center of global communism is brimming with new confidence. Russia is deploying warships to the Eastern Mediterranean, building and testing new intercontinental missiles and submarines. The rhetoric of Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, has a “neo-Soviet” ring to it. When visiting Cuba a few years back, a journalist asked Putin about his ideological loyalties. Was he a communist? “Call me a pot,” he said cryptically, “but heat me not.” Like Stalin after the New Economic Policy of the 1920s, Putin has nationalized major Russian industries. He has curtailed press freedom. He has reversed the process that dismantled the Soviet Union. He is taking up the pieces of the old communist empire, and putting them back into place.
Vladimir Putin knows that defeat may be a temporary expedient. A broken nation can bounce back. The tables can be turned on old enemies who believe they’ve won. He knows, as well, that history is cyclical; that peace leads to war and boom leads to bust. While Western businessmen and politicians have implicitly denied (in their rhetoric) the inevitability of war and financial catastrophe, there is a longstanding political movement firmly based on the expectation of both. I am referring to the political movement founded by Karl Marx and continued by Lenin, which has existed in many countries under various names and guises. Marx taught his followers to expect a future financial crash. This crash, said Marx, would discredit capitalism and open the door to global revolution. After Marx came Lenin, who taught that a future “imperialist war” would contribute to the destabilization of capitalism, discredit the leadership of the developed countries, and enable a worldwide workers’ revolution. The shrewdness of Marx and Lenin may be found in their prediction of what was always inevitable, making themselves appear more authoritative than other would-be revolutionaries.
Marx and Lenin have followers throughout the world. And these followers are organized. They also have Islamic imitators. The specifics of doctrine are unimportant when studying totalitarian countries. What matters is the ever-present hatred of Western civilization, mass-murder, oppression, and an obsession with destructive war. These are the common elements. These are the tags that give away the game and tell the observer what he is looking at. The Islamist and the Communist seek to undermine the West economically, socially, demographically and politically. The military balance also plays into their calculations. This is why the acquisition of nuclear weapons by communist and Islamist countries is a top priority. The policies of Hugo Chavez, Vladimir Putin, the Chinese communists and the clerical regime in Iran are all coordinated at the highest levels. Economic warfare is also a consideration, especially when it comes to oil and currency manipulation.
It is in this context we should consider the statements of leading economists and financial experts today. We are told that financial dominoes are tilting. If the fear of widespread bankruptcy cannot be contained, if banks and hedge funds are about to collapse, if lenders are hoarding cash and borrowers suffering the pangs of unsatisfied addiction, if the money screw has become a thumbscrew and the tortured victim is forced to yell out his bankruptcy, then the Marxist party is about to see the fulfillment of the old prophecies and promises. The expected revolution is about to come. It will come on the heels of capitalism’s crisis.
In the Telegraph article Evans-Pritchard quotes Professor Peter Spencer as saying, “The central banks are rapidly losing control.” He also quotes British and American experts who agree that “the crisis” has moved beyond collapsing mortgage securities and now threatens the entire financial system. On Dec. 12 the Wall Street Journal ran a piece titled, “Banks Sound Grim Notes.” According to this article, some of the “biggest U.S. commercial banks” have been issuing warnings that “underlying business fundamentals are continuing to deteriorate.” Many banks are predicting that 2008 will be a year of “mounting loan defaults” and heavy losses on all sides. Last month, Merrill Lynch advised investors to stay away from Bank of America and J.P. Morgan.

Sentencing him, Judge Brian Barker QC, the Common Serjeant of London, said: 'These are grave charges. It must be made clear that anyone who takes part in or supports terrorist activities will face a considerable sentence.

This was not a case of terrorism but armed warfare against the forces of the Crown ie, the forces of Her Majesty the Queen, by a citizen. It is pure treason, punishable, if there is any justice left in the UK, by execution and then deportation.

Instead, he gets 4 years, he will be out in one, and will head straight to the Benefits office, and then the mosque, for further instructions.

Posted by: duh_swami at January 8, 2008 3:55 PM

The biggest joke in all this is that you can now, in Britain, be sentenced to seven years for "religious hatred". You don't actually have to do anything, you just have to show hatred towards a religion (except Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism etc.) So basically you get a longer sentence for a thought crime against Islam than you do for attempting to go and murder the citizens of your host nation.

Get out the little red book, the commies are in power.

Robert -
For future reference, I would suggest that on UK terrorist stories, if you have a London Telegraph source, use that instead of Daily Mail. It makes no difference right now, but you will 6 months from now that Daily Mail has a much more limited archiving of its stories than the London Telegraph or BBC has.

I used to also recommend using London Times as well, until they redid their website, making a lot of their previous links invalid.

Posted by: exsgtbrown at January 8, 2008 5:15 PM

What I find the most disturbing about all this Islamic extremism is that you can not talk about it. I belonged to a forum that used to want to talk about the problems with Islam. The problem that makes people go out and kill in the name of Allah. Now, if you even mention it you are declared a bigot immediately. Posts are deleted, topics disappear, and people are suspended or ridiculed by the few and the others stay silent for fear of suspension or being labeled. I am totally bewildered by the suppression of speech when it comes to Islam and Islamists. Even PBS would not air Islam verses Islamists because they were afraid to offend. Offend who? The only ones who could be offended are the Islamists. When Christian do wrong in the name of God I want to know about it and I want to know why they think it was an instruction from God. I want to condemn it, loudly.
But even as the Islamists are declaring it is their job to kill Americans, Brits etc, etc all over the media, I am not supposed to think or mention the fact that they are all Muslims.
I believe a veil has been put over mentioning Islam, Muslims and terror in the same sentence, a veil, I am afraid, that is made of steel. We are being silenced. Our greatest freedom is being squashed in front of our eyes. Our right to free speech is being edited/censored by internet big boys like monster, Google etc, as well as the MSM. It's like they all got the same memo of does and don't concerning Muslims, Islam and Islamists. Amazing, just amazing. Thank you for Jihad watch. I've read it since it's start. First time I have posted. Frustration with the people who have buried their heads in the sand and made excuses for the intentional, purposeful killing of innocents has brought my words to your site. Here I sit safe from harm feeling more for Muslims than Muslims feel for themselves, because you see, it is mostly Muslims who die at the hand of their brethren.
Christianity would never have evolved if it wasn’t discussed and debated. They still have their nuts but it’s against the church and the law, they are condemned and imprisoned for their deeds, for the most part.

That being said, treason should a hanging offense, it no longer is.

Boy Scout saves Maldives president By KRISHAN FRANCIS, Associated Press Writer
52 minutes ago

A quick-thinking Boy Scout foiled an assassination attempt on the president of the Maldives on Tuesday, grabbing an attacker's knife as the man leapt from a crowd and lunged at the leader, an official said.

President Maumoon Gayoom was unhurt, but his shirt was ripped as the attacker tried a second time to stab him before being overpowered by security guards, government spokesman Mohammed Shareef said.

"One brave boy saved the president's life," he said.

Mohammed Jaisham Ibrahim, wearing his blue Maldives scout uniform with a blue kerchief, was standing in the crowd to greet Gayoom on Hoarafushi, one of the 1,190 coral islands in the Indian Ocean that make up the Maldives.

The attacker hid a knife in the Maldivian flag as he awaited Gayoom's arrival, then lunged at the president, Shareef said.

Ibrahim reached out and grabbed the blade, and he was cut on the hand, according to the government.

"There was blood on the president's shirt, but it was not his but the boy's," Shareef said.

"His wound was stitched, but later he complained that he could not move some of his fingers," Shareef said, adding the youngster was flown to the Maldives' capital, Male, for treatment.

Boy Scouts in the Maldives are similar to their U.S. counterparts, receiving training in first aid and participating in activities like camping. Their motto is the same as well: "Be Prepared."

After the attack, Gayoom addressed the nation in a radio broadcast, thanking the teenager and calling for calm, according to the Web site of the Minivan newspaper.

"We should not resort to violence even if we have differences between the parties," Gayoom was quoted as saying.

A police Web site identified the attacker as Mohamed Murshid, 20. No motive was given, and other details were not disclosed.

Shareef, speaking by telephone from Male, said the assassination attempt may have had a "political motive," but it was too early to say if Islamic militants were involved. Opposition to Gayoom's three-decade rule has grown in recent years and there have also been concerns about increased Islamic militancy in the Muslim nation.

Gayoom, 70, has ruled the Maldives since 1978 and helped turn it into a major destination for tourists seeking a quiet vacation on virgin beaches surrounded by crystal blue waters.

However, the country of 350,000 people has also had its share of turmoil in recent months.

On Sept. 29, a bomb blamed on Islamic militants exploded in a park in Male, wounding 12 tourists. A week later, police and soldiers raided an island that was a reputed insurgent stronghold, sparking a battle with masked men armed with clubs and fishing spears that wounded more than 30 security officers.

In recent years, Gayoom has also faced opposition protests of his previously unchallenged rule. Under pressure, he legalized opposition parties and agreed to hold the nation's first truly democratic election later this year.

The New Maldives Movement, a new opposition coalition formed to challenge Gayoom's rule in upcoming elections, condemned the attempted assassination.

"The NMM calls for an independent and speedy investigation into the attack and stresses the importance of making the results of the investigation public," the group said.

Ummmmmm, lets see, the attacker's name is Mohamed. I will be willing to guess the "Islamic militant" designation has about a 99 and 44/100% probability of being correct.
