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

Islamic State jihadis target British police officers inside the UK

Oct 18, 2014 4:34 pm By Robert Spencer

IslamicStatefighterAll the appeasement, all the pandering, all the praise of the Qur’an and Islam, all the covering up of crimes done by Muslims in accord with Sharia directives, and what do British authorities have to show for it? This. One would think that Britain’s peaceful Muslims, overflowing with gratitude to Cameron and May, would be working around the clock to stop this kind of thing. But instead — this.

“British police officers targeted by alleged Isil terrorists,” by Tom Whitehead, Telegraph, October 17, 2014:

British Islamist terrorists plotted to kill police officers or soldiers, possibly in a drive-by shooting on London streets, it was alleged.

Four British men were said to have sworn allegiance to the terrorist group Islamic State – also known as Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isil).

They had allegedly obtained a handgun with a silencer to carry out the shootings. The plot was believed to include the use of a moped.

The men had images of two police officers and two police community support officers and had conducted “hostile reconnaissance” of a police station and a Territorial Army barracks in the capital, Scotland Yard said.

They were accused of planning to follow a fatwa by a senior Isil terrorist who called for followers to kill “disbelievers” in their home countries.

Details of the alleged plot emerged on Friday as the four men were charged with terrorist offences. A fifth man was charged with firearms offences linked to the plot. They were arrested as part of a series of raids across west and central London earlier this month. Only last week, police chiefs issued an unprecedented alert to officers to be extra vigilant for their own safety because of the heightened terror threat.

Tarik Hassane, 21, of Ladbroke Grove, west London, Suhaib Majeed, 20, of St John’s Wood, north London, Nyall Hamlett, 24, of Notting Hill, west London, and Momem Motasim, 21, of Bayswater, west London, were charged on Friday with intending to commit acts of terrorism or assisting others to do so.

Nathan Cuffy, 25, of Notting Hill, west London, was charged with unlawfully passing on a handgun and ammunition.

Three of the men are said to be former classmates from the same London school.

An unusually detailed charge sheet issued by Scotland Yard said the four charged under the Terrorism Act had allegedly sworn an allegiance to Islamic State and had Instagram images of two Metropolitan Police officers and two Metropolitan Police community support officers.

They were said to have carried out “hostile reconnaissance” of Shepherd’s Bush Police Station and White City Territorial Army Barracks in London using Google Street View.

They were also accused of downloading, circulating and “considering or deciding” to act on a “fatwa of Al Adnani”. Abu Muhammad al-Adnani is a leader and spokesman for Isil who has issued a call for mujahideen, or Islamic warriors, in Europe, America, Australia and Canada, to kill “the disbeliever, whether he is civilian or military”.

He urges them to do so in “any manner or way”….

    These scumbags are all living in the most expensive areas of London. What’s the betting they are living in council-owned properties and receiving housing benefits and all the perks that go with it. Disgraceful!

    They were probably trained by the jews (sarcasm) ….

      No, the garbage-mouthed idiot in that ISIL message is not really an Islamofascist dirtbag, he’s really a sneaky Zionist Jew who is pretending to be an Islamofascist dirtbag, in order to discredit Muslims amongst the Coffee Crisp kuffars (sarc).

    Relax. The Islamic State “want to enforce their view of conservative Islamic traditions”, says the BBC. They have nothing to do with Islam. Cameron, May, and crew have told us.

    Political correctness doesn’t work. Let’s just treat people the way they deserve, without worrying about how emotionally disturbed they feel about getting their comeuppance.

    Ben Shapiro estimates in this just-released video that there are 2.2 million radical muslims living in Great Britain.

    The UK needs to round up every single Muslim on their soil and deport them to Iraq or Arabia – forever.

    Cameron was probably too busy apologizing for eating black pudding and bacon on a that same Friday to notice jihad Muslims with firearms.

      And apologize for eating an English muffin with ham, or downing a bottle of London Pride Ale.

      I hate to be non-pc here, and don’t intend to incite further violence or threats of violence, but England has got to get over their irrational fear of handguns amongst the general, law abiding populace. If you want to see a quick end to these threats, legalize concealed carry in the UK and other European countries. The islamofascists will have a hard time carrying out their threats not knowing who is armed and can justly fight back. That’s why islamofascists will have a hard time making a foothold of any real significance in most parts of the United States.

        You hit the nail on the head.

        Banning private ownership of guns has resulted in more lawlessness and violence than ever before in the UK due to Muslims living there.

        A gun carrying society is a polite society.

      “Downing Street wants information on who is radicalising British Muslims”

      That would be mohammed, and the Koran …

    Something for all English police to start singing – like their forefathers did during WW2 – it is a variation of the Hitler’s only got one ball song – to the tune of Colonel Bogey’s March:

    Abu Bakr has only got one ball,
    Osama’s were very small,
    Khomeini’s so very mini,
    And jihadis have no balls at all.

    Erdogan has only got one ball,
    Boko Haram’s are very small,
    al-Zawahiri’s so very mini,
    And jihadis have no balls at all.

    Hassanal has only got one ball,
    Omar al-Bashir’s are very small,
    Khamenei’s so very mini,
    and jihadis have no balls at all.
