UK: “Jerseyman” charged with terrorism offenses after publishing bomb-making instructions taken from an Al Qaeda magazine

Oct 9, 2014 5:40 pm By Robert Spencer

alQaedaITV considered that the salient aspect of Mark Alexander Harding’s identity, the one that they needed to highlight, was that he was from Jersey. (Channel Islands Jersey, not Springsteen Jersey.) Apparently we are to believe that because Mark Alexander Harding was from Jersey, he decided to publish bomb-making instructions taken from an Al Qaeda magazine. ITV doesn’t see fit to explain what Mark Alexander Harding’s relationship to Al Qaeda is. It doesn’t tell us if he is a non-Muslim thrill seeker or a convert to Islam. It doesn’t tell us with whom, if anyone, he has been associating. It doesn’t tell us whether he was frequenting some Jersey mosque. In short, it tells us nothing that would be illuminating or informative about this at all.

Journalism, 2014.

“Jerseyman charged with terrorism offences,” ITV, October 9, 2014:

Mark Alexander Harding, 21, has been charged with terrorism offences after publishing bomb-making instructions taken from an Al Qaeda magazine.

The Jerseyman, from Grouville, was arrested in the parish by police on Friday 3 October.

He was charged in the Jersey Royal Court on the same day and has been remanded in custody awaiting his next court appearance on 31 October.

Mr Harding is charged on two counts of the Jersey terrorism law including copying of the bomb-making section of the magazine and publishing it online.

The second count covers being in possession of the spring edition of an Al Qaeda magazine at his home.

    It must be because of violent extremism.
    “the ideology of extremism and terrorism is the problem;
    legitimate religious belief emphatically is not.”

    Who are ITV to argue with the Home Secretary?

    I’m sure all the main-stupid media outlets have indoctrination manuals for interns that state be sure to always assert that the individual is a “U.S. Citizen” or “from New Jersey” or from whatever city to obscure the identity truth.

    Jersey is the original. NEW Jersey, not Jersey, is where Mr Springsteen is from. In the same way, let’s not forget ICE hockey, not hockey; AMERICAN football, not football.

    i guess they don’t have freedom of speech there, and if that magazine had that information in it how did this guy get one, the nanny state should have already taken all of them to where ever the take forbidden items too.

    According to 4chan this “kid” was a regular poster there. He seems more like the angry young man type than a jihadi;

      That “kid” also attempted to report a Saudi poster to his country’s Ministry of the Interior for being an atheist, which carries the minor penalty of death in Saudi Arabia. Baiting the Sheikh was completely just and warranted.

      If not least of all for the humor value:

        Interesting Jimmie, that adds another layer to the onion skin. Thanks.

    On the other hand it might be that ITV reported all the information that the police released and that the police judged that more might prejudice a fair trial. Hopefully it will all come out in the wash.
