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

UK: Six more Muslims arrested by counter-terror police

Oct 14, 2014 2:55 pm By Robert Spencer

UK-JihadisGood thing jihad terror has nothing to do with Islam. Imagine what the situation would be like if it did: British police would be making counter-terrorists on a nearly daily basis. Oh, wait…

“Six arrested by counter-terror police,” by Danny Boyle, the Telegraph, October 14, 2014:

Six people have been arrested on terror charges after a series of dawn raids by the South East Counter Terrorism Unit.

Thames Valley Police said three men and three women were arrested at two properties in Portsmouth, one in Farnborough and one in Greenwich.

Counter-terror officers, working alongside colleagues from the Hampshire Constabulary and Metropolitan Police Service, carried out a series of warrants.

Police confirmed the arrests were related to the ongoing conflict in Syria. The majority of those arrested are suspected of helping others rather than having been there themselves.

Ten police officers arrived at a terraced house in Southsea, which was the former home of a jihadist who was killed in Syria.

Neighbours said they were woken at around 6.30am by police officers running towards the house, which is the childhood home of Ifthekar Jaman, who was killed in Syria, and his family including parents Jena Choudhury and Emu Miah.

University of Portsmouth student Cordell Thompson, 19, said he thought something was thrown out of the window of the house.

Mr Thompson said: “I woke up with a start at 6.30am because the police were running and shouting.

“I sleep with my window open and think something got thrown out of a window of the house. There were three police cars here, then more officers wearing masks and balaclavas turned up.”

Police said two of the men, aged 26 and 23 from Portsmouth, were arrested under Section 41 of the Terrorism Act 2000 on suspicion of commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism.

A 23-year-old woman from Farnborough and a 29-year-old woman from Greenwich were also arrested under Section 41 of the Terrorism Act 2000 on suspicion of commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism.

A 57-year-old man from Portsmouth, was arrested under Section 38(b) of the Terrorism Act 2000 failing to disclose information about acts of terrorism, Section 5 1(a) Terrorism Act 2006 engaged in conduct in preparation of terrorist acts and Section 17 Terrorism Act 2000 arranging availability of money and property for use in terrorism.

A 48-year-old woman from Portsmouth was arrested under Section 38(b) Terrorism Act 2000 failing to disclose information about acts of terrorism….

An elderly neighbour said the house had previously been raided by police.

He said: “There are always people going in and out, young men. You don’t know what’s going on.

“The police have been here before. There were lots of them, all with their lights on and everything.”…\

Police investigating an alleged Isil-inspired terror plot in London have made a further three arrests, officers disclosed on Monday night.

The men aged between 21 and 25 were detained in the capital just days after four suspects were arrested in dawn raids.

Counter-terror officers said they had disrupted what was believed to be the early stages of what could have turned into a “significant plot”.

    One doesn’t hear the ludicrous phrase:-

    ‘tiny minority of Muslim extremists’

    -being mouthed so much these days by Islamic apologists, for obvious reasons.

      Except from delusional head up their arse celebrities like Ben Affleck. The obvious takes a long time to sink in for them because they’re so removed from reality.

        Ben Affleck has no real acting talent and relies on image.
        It is not just his opinions that are shallow, his acting is shallow.
        The leftist movie industry and hype promotion machine props him up as an image.
        In order to camouflage Ben Affleck’s many shortcomings some directors manipulate the movie plot around Ben Affleck and try to cover up with bursts of potty mouth characters who overly rely on noisy conflict in a hope that no one will notice how incredibly shallow Ben Affleck is on the screen.

    I wonder who chose the name (acronym) ISIS.

    Isis was the moon goddess in Ancient Egypt. How apt.

    The UK and US arrest recruiters and prospective jihadis on their way to fight. Then the mujahideen, after participating in genicide, theft, rape, enslaving women and girls, and murder, when they come back from the fight, security services let them roam around… why? Every supporter of IS who lifts a finger in any way is complicit in genocide, at the bare minimum.

    What is going on? It makes no sense legally to make cases before the fight and then start head-scratching and merely observing when the fighters come back after conspiring and participating in unspeakable crimes against humanity. I do not get it.

    • steakman says

      Having gone to Syrai or Iraq to wage Jihad is in itself a Treasonous act.
      Why it is not being pursued as such is completely beyond me. If they come back the Charge of Treason is PERFECTLY good for these sub humans.

      As should be the sentence…. Firing squad.
      No sense in keeping them alive, for many reasons..

    These terrorists are popping out a dime a dozen. But law enforcement will have to spend $billions and countless hours tracking, arresting, processing, prosecuting, incarcerating these 7th century mad-mo mercenaries copycats.
    Even if they are thwarted, they still cause a terrible burden on modern societies.

    At some point war needs to be declared so that this problem can be handled swiftly and effectively using military ways and means.

  6. Coolio says

    We need to start by banning halal (and kosher) methods of slaughter and import, and ALL (male and female) genital mutilation under 18. A sensible next step would be to close down, demolish, and replace all mosques and Islamic organisations associated with Jihadists, replacing them with peace parks.

    We need to formally declare war on the Islamic State and imprison all jihadists in the Shetland Isles as Prisoners of War.

    Robert, any chance you could get over your legal difficulties and speak (or get Ayaan Hirsi to speak) at UKIP’s Spring 2015 Conference?

    • Jerry says

      Oct 15, 2014 at 9:49 am

      Where do you get the crazy notion that Jihadis terrorists should be considered and treated as prisoners of war?

      Jihad is not conducted in compliance with the “rules of engagement” relating to the Western notion of laws governing the conduct of war.

      The mere participation or association or support for Jihad makes the participants and their fellow travellers and apologists complicit with genocide, crimes against humanity and “war crimes”.

      Those should carry an unappealable death sentence, fall within the jurisdiction of Military Tribunals, require no more than proof on balance of probabilities and sentences should be executed within 24 hours of the proceedings.

      Why should the Shetland Islands be defiled by keeping Jihadists?

      As far as Kosher and Halal are concerned, I would support you Kosher suggestions as soon as there is credible evidence that there is a clear and present danger of massive terrorist attacks from Orthodox Jewish Elements (never happened and never will). I would allow Kosher and Halal only if each item is individually and personally certified by hand written certification. This would restrict the proliferation thereof only to those who personally wish to adhere to those rules and relieve the general public from being subjected to unsolicited Kosher and or Halal items an do away with disguised Jizzya levied and extracted by the Muslim organization from the public using bullied and intimidated large corporations.

      I would close and demolish each and every Mosque in which Jihad is advocated, preached or promoted. This should take care of more than 99.999% of all Mosques. I would only allow new ones once at least one Church, one Synagogue and one Hindu Ashram are built, commissioned opened to the public and are allowed to publicly function at least in Mecca, Medinah, and Riadh.

      I would prohibit any female or male dressing in public in a manner that would tend to conceal their individual recognizable features, such as faces, eyes and hair or facilitate the carrying of concealed weapons or explosives.

      This should eliminate the Hijabs and Niqabs as well as wide male garments that may facilitate concealment of weapons. Balaclavas, Hoodies and crash helmets should only be worn on motorcycles but not off them.

    @Coolio: Sorry, but I’m not for banning kosher and halal slaughter. There are people whom I like and deeply respect who keep kosher kitchens–even if I firmly believe that the need for such went by the wayside with the coming of Messiah (Mk. 7 and Ac. 10). If it were only about such things as keeping halal and covering girls’ hair, I wouldn’t be wary of Muslim immigration. Don’t sweat the small stuff.

    Then again, I’d ban female circumcision. From what I’ve heard, it does serious damage that the circumcision done on us males does not.

      So the pain and suffering of the animals thus slaughtered, doesn’t matter to you ?

      ”Don’t sweat the small stuff.”

      I don’t think there is anything ‘small’ about being concerned about animal cruelty.

    I take it none of these terrorists were muslim..seeing as it has nothing to do with Islam??? Hmmm they are all muslims

    • Charli Main says

      Oct 15, 2014 at 7:38 am

      Good point Veronica. The religion of these terrorists is not specified.
      Why, they might well of been some of all those vile, Christian, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist or Jainist terrorists infesting Britain, Europe and elsewhere.
      People are much to quick to assume that terrorists in Britain are Muslims.
      Definitely Islmophobic !!!!!!!!!!!

    The UK gov. (as well as the US’s) don’t even have the balls to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. ISIS is an offshoot of the MB.

    The Islamic State might be realizing that Islam’s pretense at decency is unraveling before the world and are behaving the way they do without hiding it in a Mohammad like barbarism frenzy as last desperate act before traveling on the path of Islam’s death march into Satan’s abyss.

    THE FINGER :-

    In Western culture – the finger – as in giving someone the finger or the bird – the one finger salute is an obscene hand gesture. It is commonly used by much of the Western population young & old & communicates mild to extreme contempt that is roughly equivalent to meaning #@$% &*!.

    Today our finger gesture has been given over to the terrorist cause. So that / which means, that if I stick my finger up at anyone I am now seen as communicating a terrorist message & can technically be arrested for committing a terrorist act.

    We the people of the Western world have had our freedom of speech & expression, not only taken away from us, but turned into a weapon against us.
    The Media is to blame for this assault on Western freedom, for promoting ISIS & the Islamic hijacking of our cultural methods to communicate.

    • Mirren10 says

      Oct 18, 2014 at 4:38 pm

      In Western culture, giving someone the finger is done with the *middle* finger, not the index finger.
