How did these two brilliant brothers get “brainwashed”? Did the “brainwashers” appeal to the Qur’an and Sunnah? That is a prospect that, even after all these developments regarding jihadis in Syria, British authorities are not prepared to face.
An update on this story. “The brilliant brothers who left British suburb for jihad in Syria,” by Robert Mendick, Patrick Sawer and Tim Ross, the Telegraph, June 21, 2014
Counter-terrorism officers are hunting the jihadist masterminds who arranged for British students, including a teenage schoolboy, to travel to Syria to fight.
Aseel Muthana, pictured here for the first time, is, at the age of 17, believed to be the youngest Briton so far to join Islamist terror networks operating in Syria and Iraq.
His elder brother Nasser Muthana, 20, appeared on Friday in a chilling propaganda video for the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (Isis), just two days after David Cameron warned of the threat posed by Britons returning from jihad.
His father Ahmed Muthana said on Saturday that his boys, both clever students with excellent career prospects, had been “brainwashed” in Britain into going to Syria. Mr Muthana insisted that their trips must have been arranged by terrorist recruiters.In a series of further developments, amid a growing sense of crisis over the numbers being recruited to the jihadist cause, The Sunday Telegraph can disclose:
• the Muthana brothers were part of a wider network that included two friends arrested months ago on their return from the Middle East;
• a second Briton in the Isis video was identified as Reyaad Khan, 20. He studied in sixth form with Nasser Muthana at Cardiff’s Cantonian High School…

And the Foreign Office has decided to **cut its counter-terrorism budget** !!!
We are being ruled by fools, traitors, and mohammedans. I’ll bet that bitch Warsi is behind this.

Slightly off topic… The MCB (mudhutmaden cancer of britain) has recently publicly denounced the antics of ISIS and the BBC (Bedouin broadcasting corporation) sensibly applauded the sentiment. Undoubtedly this announcement put millions of hearts at rest as it confirms that islime is indeed a religion of peace? Why, there were endless demonstrations by “moderate Muslimes” all around the country, denouncing ISIS and it’s terror campaign. And no doubt when these “radicalized” miscreants return to our green and pleasant land there will be posse after posse of “moderates” awaiting them to introduce them to the latest Sharia court where they will be duly dealt with at their Islamic community’s cost, and sentenced to full instruction on the pleasantries contained within the Koran.
And yes Mirren, we are being ruled by fools, traitors and mudhutmadens including Baroness (WTF) Warsi, and state media (BBC) news broadcasts determined by another mudhutmaden.
Our losers (Camoron, Clegg, et al) cannot face the possibility of having to admit that in the face of the strongest evidence of the horror of Islime they were wrong, wrong, wrong to suggest that there was nothing to fear from mainstream Muslims and that there were only very few radicals who posed a threat to the British public. Now in the face of inevitable repeats of 7/7 on a much greater scale they are having to invent new ways of dishing out the lies.
I must say I am deafened by the silence of the vast majority of Muslimes concerning the atrocities carried out in their name, which indicates tacit agreement with the jihadists, and shows that if they had balls they would join in.

There is nothing brilliant about jihad.

There is not a thing the British ruling classes can do. From royalty down they are slaves of Islam. At stake are the lives of so many innocent and poor (by now) Britons and Irish too. The Muslim enclaves are well established and if you attack Islam you are labelled a racist from all sides especially the Churches and the “Left”
There is really nothing to stop this and it will take a totally revolutionary process but leadership on the left is absent and the present “Left” are covering for Islam. Many will die at the hands of these ISIS in Britain and Europe
A party needs to be built on the left that will concéntrate on teaching the youth what is Islam, especially its historym with special emphasis on Spain which is the centre of so many lies a la Karen Armstrong. Works of the early writers on this must be fundamental in this education and to counter the lies of Armstrong.
But in the meantime the British ruling class elites have ALREADY sacrificed the lives of thousands. Is this stoppable no! The proof is to google under pictures “ISIS Iraq” and that is your answer. They are primed to kill and will kill.
