Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

UK: Police raid home of Muslim who praised his brother for waging jihad in Syria

Apr 20, 2014 8:07 pm By Robert Spencer

Mustakim JamanThe British authorities are trying to “stop young Muslims joining the Syrian conflict.” This is yet another wise and well thought-out policy from that wisest of all Western governments, the British. These young jihadis are being stopped from going to Syria. They might then cast about for opportunities to wage jihad at home — but at least they won’t be waging jihad in Syria!

“Police raid the home of a Muslim man who praised his brother for fighting ‘holy war,'” by Dominik Lemanski and Neil Doyle in The Daily Star, April 20:

Mustakim Jaman was on Newsnight in December to talk about his older sibling Ifthekar – who boasted of fighting a “five-star jihad”.

Now he has been targeted by police amid fears he too may go to the Middle East.

The Jaman family home was searched as part of an operation to stop young Muslims joining the Syrian conflict.

Last week, Mustakim took to Twitter to complain about the raid which he claimed was done under the Terrorism Act.

The 22-year-old told followers his family home near Portsmouth had been searched for two days.

He said: “All of our phones are gone, so just a heads up for anyone trying to contact us.

“Before anyone starts running their mouths, it wasn’t to do with our tweets or ‘being careful’ it was more related to something else.

“Brothers, be cautious, this is only the beginning of a wider investigation…don’t give them a reason to take advantage.”

Hampshire police said no arrests were made.

After the raid, Mustakim and his family had a message of support from Jeremiah Adebolajo, brother of Lee Rigby’s killer Michael Adebolajo.

On Newsnight, Mustakim said his brother died “doing a good deed” and was always trying to be the “best Muslim” he could.

A BBC spokesman said: “The comments of Mustakim and Ifthekar Jaman were reported in the context of a film about the connections between foreign jihadis fighting in Syria and their motivations for joining.

“It is squarely in the public interest to investigate and understand how and why British Muslims have become involved in the conflict.”…

It shouldn’t even need to be explained.

    It’s the thought that counts, and this fine young man is a thinker. Hell, you can see the smoke coming out of his ears.

    It is not just Muslim fanatics fighting other Muslim fanatics. He might have ended up in John McCain’s ‘moderate’ Free Syrian Army murdering Christians.
    I would guess that the possibility of raping 9 year old girls (like Muhammad did) is just too tempting for repressed pray five=a=day Muslim to resist.

    ================

    If BBC would REVEAL the filthy ideology of Islam, Muslims might realize Islam is not worth dying for in the first place.

      The BBC and all the rest of the MSM as well as all our PC elites ARE the real problem. Were it not for them, Islam would have been defeated in no time.
      We should bring these traitors to justice and, if convicted of high treason, they should be executed.
      The Muslim Brotherhood thugs are running the show in the White House. In Egypt, they are rotting in prison!
      The vast majority of the egyptian people are MUSLIMS, yet they were brave enough to bring these MB thugs to their knees. And they did it PEACEABLY.
      The West needs to grow some balls!

        It would be great to type MSM on the keyboard and just hit delete to get rid of the vermin.
