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

British rapper a suspect in journalist’s beheading by the Islamic State

Aug 23, 2014 10:00 am By Robert Spencer

rapperAbdelBaryThis is what is happening in Britain today: Mehdi Hasan and others like him are all over the airwaves, smoothly arguing that “the 1,400-year-old Islamic faith has little to do with the modern jihadist movement.” Meanwhile, Muslims like Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary are departing for Syria and Iraq from their “plush homes,” explaining that they are “leaving everything for the sake of Allah.” British authorities were thoroughly unprepared for the actions of Abdel Bary and others like him, because they believed Mehdi Hasan. They never dreamed that Muslims from Britain would be interested in waging jihad anywhere. Now that they know better, will they turn to Mehdi and say, “You misled us”? No. They will do all they can to increase his reach and influence, in the vain hope that he will keep more Muslims in the U.K. from becoming like Abdel Bary. They will probably never realize, until it is far too late, that what Mehdi Hasan is doing is fostering complacency and ignorance among non-Muslims, not convincing Muslims that it is wrong to wage jihad warfare against unbelievers.

“British rapper a suspect in journalist’s beheading by ISIS,” by Bruce Golding, New York Post, August 23, 2014 (thanks to Anne Crockett):

A British rapper whose father is awaiting trial in Manhattan for a pair of US embassy bombings is a leading suspect in the barbaric beheading of American journalist James Foley, it was revealed on Friday.

Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary — who recently tweeted a photo of himself holding up a severed head — was among three Brits identified as possibly being the masked killer known as “John the Beatle.”
Bary, 24, is the son of an Egyptian-born militant who is awaiting trial on terror charges tied to the deadly 1998 bombings of embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.

Also under investigation are the brother of a British doctor once charged with kidnapping two Western war correspondents, and a former gang member who converted to Islam and traveled to Syria, Britain’s Telegraph newspaper reported.

A dozen American counterterrorism experts are expected to fly to the UK “within days” to help identify Foley’s killer, Britain’s Daily Mail reported.

Former hostages held by ISIS have said he is one of several jihadists they nicknamed “the Beatles” due to their British accents, with two of his cronies referred to as “George” and “Ringo.”

Bary, who went to Syria last year to fight in its bloody civil war, has a build, skin tone and ­accent all similar to those of “John,” according to The Telegraph.

Before becoming a jihadist, he was an aspiring rapper from West London known as “L Jinny,” whose music was played on BBC Radio 1.

Bary also appeared in music videos posted on YouTube for songs titled “Overdose,” “Flying High” and “Dreamer.”

But he was reportedly radicalized by followers of firebrand ­Islamic preacher Anjem Choudary and walked out of his family’s plush home in the Maida Vale district of London last year, saying he was “leaving everything for the sake of Allah.”

Earlier this month, he was seen in a photo posted to Twitter wearing camouflage clothing and a black balaclava while holding a severed head with his left hand — the same hand “John” is seen using to draw a knife across Foley’s throat in his execution video.

According to The Telegraph, Bary is on an official list of British jihadists who may be “John.”

Also on the list is Razul Islam, 21, the paper says.

In 2012, Islam’s two older brothers — including Dr. Shajul Islam, a suspended physician with England’s National Health Service — were charged with kidnapping two Western war correspondents near the Syrian border with Turkey.

But the brothers were released last year after neither British journalist John Cantile nor Dutch photographer Jeroen Oerlmans appeared to testify against them.

Another suspect is Aine Davis, 30, a former drug dealer and gang member who The Telegraph said converted to Islam and flew to Syria to wage jihad.

    It is obvious that a lot of people in the UK must know who this man is. Father on terrorist charges? Suddenly “disappeared” in the last year or two? Talks like Ali-G? That narrows it down a bit!

    I fully expect him to be named pretty soon. I’m more interested in what will happen next. There is talk of “special forces” being sent over just to trace this idiot. Personally wouldn’t waste time /money/someone’s life on that. It is 99% certain the loon will meet his death at some point. If he doesn’t, the whole of the West will know who he is if he tries to return “home”. Sorted…..

      If special forces do catch is piece of Muslim vermin, killing him is the last thing they should do, instead they should castrate him and feed the proceeds to a pig.
      That way this POS can spend the rest of his life knowing that when he gets to paradise, his 72 virgins, sweet little boys and herd of goats will be of little use to him.

    ‘The Independent’ is also running this story at the moment. This guy was a rapper and there are examples of his rap stuff around the Internet. A sound expert compared the voice from the Foley jihad killing video and this guy’s rap songs.

    Here’s what The Indy said. “A sound expert who compared the footage of the brutal killing with Bary’s rap songs told the paper there was a “big likeness” between the voices.”

    Elementary, my dear Watson?

    Britain must be spending quite a bit of money on all the welfare these Islamic savages suck up, as well as on tracking them for security reasons. Why not restrict immigration from Islamic countries and prohibit reentry for those who go to jihadville? Instead, Britain, just like most other Western countries, practices multicultural suicide for the sake of diversity while admitting people from the least multicultural, most intolerant cultures on earth.
    Many great civilizations have declined when they decided that their success can be conferred on everyone regardless of their familiarity with the basic ideas that have made those civilizations successful in the first place. We are witness to it right now.

    • Bill says

      Aug 24, 2014 at 8:43 am

      Not only should all western countries prohibit entry to every Muslim, they should also deport any muslim who so much as utters a word contrary to our culture, in favor of Islam, or complains that they are not being respected.

    My question is, what are they going to do with whoever they find? I would one of two things: Bring him and execute him (because if he’s found fight jihad, he is guilty anyway); or forbid him and any relations to ever come or stay in Britain.

      He’d need to be killed on the spot. If he’s brought back to Britain, all we get is an expensive trial where we end up getting put on trial, followed by imprisonment at vast expense, with medical expenses thrown in if he’s wounded, or falls ill, and there’s prison da’wa. Killing him on the spot is far cheaper and rids us of him permanently.

    If it was Abdel-Majed Abdel who slashed Foley’s throat, remember that all he did was commanded in the Holy Ko-Ran and enacted for emulation in the holy Hah-Deaths. He did it for the Cause, and I don’t think he deserves consideration for his motives. We know Islam is a religion of peace cuz Prez Dubya sez so, and so does Barack. And our next prez Hill is way on board. The skeptical crowd, Sean and Bill and that crew, assign some culpability to Islam, maybe, but wrap themselves in words like extremist and radical. Extreme and radical what?

    Well, here’s a baby step: if there are any Englishmen left with balls, if, then there must be one of those loud debates in the House of Commons where an real Englishmen reads a damning ayat from the Holy Ko-Ran or a witnessing from the Hah-Deaths, and let a Moslem-Englishman [sic] rebut. Do this for two straight weeks, on live TV, if the BBC would permit, and England, Britain and the world would be changed.

    Easy to pull off, do-able. Never happen, makes too much sense. Let’s just give Abdel-Majed Abdel a lifetime pension for his military work and faith and be done with it.

      I’ve often thought any government that had the forethought to employ, say, five theologians a la Spencer , who knew Islam inside out, would go a great way towards destroying Islam. They could be employed in an existing department, and wheeled out for government press releases on any matter pertaining to Islam. We all know that Spencer’s knowledge of Islamic texts often embarrasses muslims to the point where they won’t even debate him.
      Now imagine if you had a few of them IN GOVERNMENT…..

      You would need more than or two, since these individuals would inevitably be targeted as “Islamophobes”, even though they’re speaking the truth. Also, it would shock the muslims to see yet another “expert” wheeled out week after week. How about it? Maybe have a word with Nigel Farage on that….

        I don’t get the impression that Nigel Farage is calling for an end to Muslim immigration. I’ve lost respect for him because of his hypocracy toward Marine le Pen. Clearly there is no significant difference between him and le Pen, with the exception that le Pen has more depth and sobriety. She also runs an operation that is far more intelligent and effective than Farage.

        • Peter Buckley says

          Aug 23, 2014 at 8:29 pm

          Farage wants a 5-year ban on ALL immigration, including muslims

          As for Marine Le Pen, Farage reckons there still a whiff of anti-Semitism still hanging around her party. He may be right:

          http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-27761534

          What’s far more baffling are her odd ideas on Foreign Policy:

          http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/4160/marine-le-pen-chauprade

          So I reckon Farage is right on both counts……

      • hopkins says

        Aug 23, 2014 at 10:06 pm

        Of course there is antisemitism in Jean-Marie. Marine no longer has positive relations with him after the two latest comments. I can’t say that I see anti-semitism in Marine. And certainly the only antisemitism that is serious in France is from Muslims. I don’t completely understand her foreign policy, that is true. Perhaps she has an outdated view of Iran. There certainly are many people behind closed doors in Iran who sympathize with the West. They had been westernized with the Shah. This is not true in Saudi Arabia at all. US complicity with saudi arabia has always been shameful. The whole jihad thing began there. I can’t imagine that she thinks reachign out to Iran will get the people behind closed doors to rise up. Women are treated better any where in the world than they are in saudi arabia, but still. Chauprade’s deal is weird, hadn’t heard of it. Disappointing. I think Marine sees the US as creating trade deals that have been detrimental, which is true. They are the source of material in France teaching about gay life, as if it is okay to tell school children that Scotty has two mothers, how charming. The US is also the source of this crap Rap music that has been so injurious to European culture. Obama has not supported “moderate” Muslims like he has bowed to the extremists, this is true. Why she has a Putin fixation, I do not know. But I can tell you that her organization could turn out to be more influential and longer lasting than Farage’s. Her greatest support is with the young. Farage gets his support from oldsters. She is impressively effective at upending the politically correct media, enraging them, exposing them. She makes her points with much more sobriety and lucidity than Farage. And she had to dig out of a bigger hole than Farage given the demonization in France of the NF. I can’t say that I believe that Farage would be more capable of governing than Le Pen. He is quite flighty. But he’d be better than anyone else. And I could say the same for Marine. There is no other hope in France. She is certainly a respectable nationalistic leader in Europe, unlilke some others. To try to exclude her in the EU when their aims and motives are so similiar seems childish. She is clearly a force.

      Thanks for posting that.

      Interesting article and an even more interesting comment section. Seems to me that the general consensus amongst Muslims is, essentially outlawing the Brotherhood is declaring war on all Muslims. When you look at the goals of the Brotherhood, the comment section of that article becomes even more startling.

      I think declaring the Brotherhood a terrorist organization would lead to essential public discourse as to the goals and aspirations of this organization and all of its affiliates, which is to destroy our civilization, install a global Caliphate and ultimately global Sharia, like we see in IS. It appears that the common Muslim believes fighting to preserver our civilization against the Brotherhood & it’s goals is war against all Muslims?

      http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/viewSubCategory.asp?id=1235

      It’s also important for people to know that Obama backed the Brotherhood in Egypt, and both he and Hillary have Brotherhood affiliates as advisors.

        I would *certainly* welcome seeing the Muslim Brotherhood designated a terrorist organization—it is, in fact, absurd that this hasn’t been done long since.

        But I really doubt that this will lead, in an of itself, to a larger public understanding of the threat of Islam—or of what Obama has done to enable it.

          Aug 23, 2014 at 10:54 pm

          It just seems incredible, that the Brotherood and it’s affiliates, who espouse the same goals and aspirations as ISIS, have been serving, granted security clearances, and have been advising our government on Islamic issues. The fact that Senator McCain and others were supportive of and indeed photographed with the Caliph himself last year speaks volumes in regards to the people advising our government. I doubt most are guilty of treason, but if all the evidence of the Brotherhoods connection to our government were exposed, and the facts were known, this connection would have to stop. At this point, for the most part, folks in our government are just ignorant, and in their desperation to find some secular elements to replace the Baathists they are destroying, are discovering that the only ready made political systems available to them are ones like ISIS and the Brotherhood.

          I think what we are witnessing now in the Middle East is the final destruction of the original inhabitants of the area by Islam, so we get to see what the designs are on us, by looking at the genocide and open sex slavery. It’s what the end looks like, and quite literally, our government has people advising them who have these goals for us.

          And this isn’t news…. Incredible.

    Those Islamic thugs of ISIS in their jihad for Islam behead many people. With all their demonic scheming they would also like to murder many people of and in the Western countries. This includes ,of the the Untied States. The chief military brass and some the former US administration officials have described as “unprecedented” the threat posed by the ISIS terrorists to America. We all may be in no doubt, of the malice and vicious intentions of the ISIS jihad terrorists fiends with their Islamic hate for the United States and her people. They want only to do us great harm. Nevertheless, it’s important that we ,as Americans , not live in fear or be afraid to go different places or do different things out of fear of any ISIS threat, or an Al Qaeda threat either, for to live in fear would many the Islamic enemy happy. So we need to keep on moving on living our own lives. Still, we need to keep a balanced view on things and even through in very important that we don’t live in fear we should keep on the outlook for things that seem no to look quite right and then let the right person know about it if somethings seems wrong. As in “What’s wrong with this picture ?” As for example , that Tee-Shirt vendor at NY.NY. on Times Square who saw some smoke come out of that parked van and then let a police officer know about it. As it has been said “If you see something, say something.” To put it another way,the wisdom of the words of Thomas Jefferson do very much apply even more today then they in Jefferson’s own time. For Mr. Jefferson stated “Let the eye of vigilance never to closed.”

      To anyone in the UK:

      2UKIP leader Nigel Farage has called on Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron to take a stand on the Islamic State and strip UK nationals who are fighting abroad of their citizenship and cancel passports using the little-known Foreign Enlistment Act of 1870.
      The move would bring the United Kingdom into line with close ally Australia, whose Prime Minister Tony Abbott has sworn “to do our damndest” to ensure “trained killer… returning Jihadists” would never be allowed to return to Australia.
      UKIP leader Farage said in a press release today that; “in choosing to quit the UK to fight abroad, [UK National Islamic State Fighters] have rendered themselves effectively stateless by conforming to an ideology of wanting to create a terrifying caliphate. If they choose to leave the UK they simply should not be allowed to return. Where intelligence identifies UK nationals fighting for IS their repatriation absolutely should be blocked.”
      The statement said that those fighting abroad should be stripped of their British citizenship, passports of British only citizens should be withdrawn and foreign nationals with a ‘right to reside’ in the UK should have that terminated immediately.

For example, he has been filmed and posted on Youtube speaking to Muslims when he said, “Non Muslims live like animals”. Unfortunately, the British media (especially the BBC) regard this man as an icon of moderation.

    He is intelligent, photogenic and very articulate. He is also very dangerous, something the ‘establishment’ have not realised.

    The murderous Muslims who engage in the violence and killing of the jihad for Islam is terrible indeed. As for cutting off a persons head. the Quran does teach in Sura 47:4. “Whenever you encounter the unbelievers strike of their heads…” Some “peaceful religion.” This is only one out of many places in the Quran that does teach violence and the killing of other people for the cause of Islam. Thomas Paine did have a good and valid point when he wrote in bis book THE AGE OF REASON that “Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind, cannot be a true system.”

    I am sickened by the media’s the routine use of the word “brutal” in referring to ISIS! With so many more descriptive terms at our fingertips, why do they fall back on an adjective that can apply equally to a slap on the face? Any violation of another’s body is brutal. The DEGREE of the so-called Brutality is woefully absent when talking about these monsters.
    I tried to comment on Fox online about this, but was unsuccessful.
    I wanted to affirm the following replacements to the word “brutal”:
    SADISTIC – SAVAGE – BARBARIC – MONSTROUS – VICIOUS – BEASTLY – SICKENING – DISGUSTING

      Yes, when will the MSM speak the truth and describe these Islamic jihadists as the bloodthirsty enemy they are?

      • Bettina says

        Aug 23, 2014 at 3:34 pm

        If by chance you gain entry into some of the media’s website comments, would you please offer them these and other adjectives to replace “brutal”?
        I truly wish with other JW posters would do the same — please?
        With many such voices, “brutal” should disappear inch by inch.

      Bettina, those are all words I use on a regular basis—even since I began posting about Jihad, certainly.

      I often note that all of these words seem woefully inadequate to express the horror we regularly see from pious Muslims.

    Britain, France, Sweden they have all fallen to Islam. We pray their natives will become restless. Inshallah

      Only France is showing some push back. Marine le Pen is causing many to wake up. They are too scared over there to even think about the situation. France seems to have more back bone than Britain on this issue. But it may be too late.

    Anyone familiar with British English will realize that the voice on the video combines East London phonemes with distinctly non-English sounds, particularly in the vowels.

    Most likely, the foreign accent evident in the voice-over (particularly vowels) is due to Egyptian Arabic.

    There are unlikely to be many males in the UK with this highly unusual mixture of accents. An linguistic expert with real familiarity with MIDDLE EASTERN LANGUAGES would be able to identify the foreign language (and narrower local variety) based on numerous subtle features.

    Put simply, before turning to unproven high-tech means to identify the VOICE, a real investigator would try to identify the speaker’s other LANGUAGE.

    All this assumes, of course, that Scotland Yard investigators have the courage to follow the (phonetic) EVIDENCE. Sadly, under the Saudi-bought “Dave” Cameron and Nick Clegg, real investigation results are liable to end the investigator’s career.

    Over 90 times in the Quran we hear that Mohammed is an excellent example for man.

    In the muslim Hadith we read all sorts of nasty stuff that Mohammed did to other people: he encouraged rape, he committed mass murder, kiddy fiddling etc etc

    All it takes is for muslims to read their own source texts to get the mental images necessary to make them Jihadists.

    But to suggest such a causal link is Islamaphobia.

    British rapper a suspect in journalist’s beheading by the Islamic State
    ………………………..

    Yeah, I remember Abdel Bary—L Jinny—of the infamous line, “Chillin’ with my homie or what’s left of him”, as he holds up a severed head:

    http://www.jihadwatch.org/2014/08/uk-jihadi-poses-with-severed-head-chillin-with-my-homie-or-whats-left-of-him

    I hadn’t realized at the time that his father has murdered Americans as well—but it does not surprise me.

    Here’s his rap “Dreamer”:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgkrxvDGgBg

    Of course, now we know what he was likely “dreaming” about—not the silly Kumbaya of “Imagine” by the Beatle he has nicknamed himself after, but *beheading an American journalist*.

    And while “Overdose” had typically incoherent ‘lyrics’, he slams Great Britain and intones ominously “I guess a soldier part of the plan”.

    The problem is the west is too civilized. We have to use the Koran against these barbarians. We too should have videos of executions kill them whenever we find them and we kill them while they stand in a pig sty and let the pigs eat the remains. The knowledge they will die unclean unfit for paradise will have a telling affect. These throw backs the the 6th century will know that when they do battle with western forces they will die the worse death imaginable, no quarter, no mercy. This the way the Roman Legions of old dealt which the barbarian in their world we should be no different. We are defending western civilization from modern day Vandals.

      I think that after the terrorists who perpetrated the Beslan massacre were killed, the Russian authorities wrapped up and buried their carcasses in pig skins, didn’t they?

    “British” rapper? Going by that name he sounds more like a Muslim rapper but knowing that Islam forbids music I guess “British” rapper is more socially acceptable.

    Now, how about if the UK rounds up every Muslim on their soil and deports them to Arabia?

    They are bloodthirsty demons who worship a 7th Century child abuser.

    Problem is that in countries that are comprised of mostly uneducated and unemployed teenagers only ISIS is hiring.

    Meanwhile conversion to Islam is very popular with prison inmates and other psychopaths, it is a perfect fit.

    Wake up and smell the peace of Islam, Hello!

    Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary, who went by the rap name L. Jinny or Lyricist Jinn, is a suspect in the beheading of journalist James Foley this week. Bary’s father, Egyptian national Adel Abdul Bary, was believed to be a close confidant of Osama bin Laden and was extradited from the UK to the US in 2012 for his alleged involvement in the 1998 bombings of two US embassies in east Africa. So, solid jihadi background and upbringing, 1st clue

    The little jihadi’s catchy lyrics:
    “Give me the pride and the honor like my father, I swear the day they came and took my dad, I could have killed a cop or two,” he rapped. “Imagine then I was only six, picture what I’d do now with a loaded stick. Like boom bang fine, I’m wishing you were dead, violate my brothers and I’m filling you with lead.”
    2nd clue

    Between the US and the UK we did not have eyes on this POS when he left his multimillion dollar childhood home and jumped a plane to Syria to join ISIS? Is this happening thousands of times, this failure of intelligence and intervention?
    How many Johnny Jihads have left America, UK, and the West to join ISIS or ISIL in Iraq and Syria? A more disturbing question, how many of these jihadis have returned unmolested and are ready to perpetrate their violent murderous jihad within their host countries?

    Here’s an even better plan: Round up all muslims and send them back to their country of origin–then bomb them out of existence. Those who are born in our country have a choice–they can stay here and spend the rest of their life in special muslim prisons. Any problems with that, we can bomb them out of existence, too. First ones in are Louis Farakhan and all members of the present White House staff with ties to islam in any way.
