And he can’t be deported because of his “right to a family life” — that is, his right to be with the people he threatened to murder. A few British people have stopped by the comments field on various recent Jihad Watch posts to tell me to stop being so hard on the British. I will comply as soon as British authorities stop issuing absurd and suicidal rulings like this one.
The Daily Mail, true to form for all the mainstream media, doesn’t mention that this man is a Muslim, identifying him only as an “Algerian national.” But virtually everyone in Algeria is Muslim, and it is because he is Muslim, not because he is Algerian, that British officials are bending over backwards to accommodate him.
Britain Suicide Watch Update: “Algerian migrant can’t be kicked out of Britain because of his right to family life – despite threatening to KILL his ex-partner and children,” by Thomas Burrows, Daily Mail, November 30, 2014 (thanks to Mick):
A migrant from Algeria who threatened to torch his two daughters and ex-girlfriend cannot be thrown out of Britain – because of his ‘right to a family life’.
The Algerian national, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was ruled a danger to his daughters, now five and seven, by social workers.
A Child Protection Plan even forbids him from living with them in the West Midlands.
The 42-year-old was imprisoned for 15 months in 2012 after Wolverhampton Crown Court heard he vowed to burn down his house with his children and their Angolan mother inside.
But despite that, the migrant has won the right to remain in the UK.
Tory MP Philip Hollobone said he was disgusted by the decision.
He told the Sun on Sunday: ‘This is exactly why the Human Rights Act should be scrapped.
‘Any foreign national convicted of a crime should be deported and banned from ever returning.
The immigrant arrived in the UK in December 2003 when he paid smugglers to get him in. He claimed asylum the next day giving a false name and date of birth.
His claim was refused in February 2004, but his two separate appeals were both dismissed.
He remained in the UK, however, and six years later he was convicted at Brent Magistrates’ Court of drink driving.
Then two years later, he was jailed for 15 months and Home Secretary Theresa May signed a deportation order to send him back to his native country when he was freed.
An immigration tribunal was even told deporting him would not have a detrimental effect on his children.
However, Judge Conway allowed him to remain in the country.
He said: ‘You have been punished enough and I do not think further supervision is going to help you.
‘What will help you is trying to get on the rails with your family and your children and I know that you are determined to do that.
You made a very serious mistake but you are not a danger to the public and you are not a fire raiser.’…

Robert should keep being hard on the British and American dhimmis. We have a dhimmi President who keeps spreading the propaganda that ISIS has nothing to do with Islam and that the word “Jihad” does not mean holy war. We are really screwed unless we can replace Obama with someone like Allen West.
terry says
This judge looks like as if he was pulled out of outer space and thrown on the bench, right before rendering that ridiculous decision.
By the way, could that decision be appealed?
MS says
Don’t stop being hard in the British. When I lived in the UK some of them were still calling us the colonies. Trey have the lips permanently glued to kate and billy who do nothing and have capitulated to every single thing the muslimscwant. They won’t even honor the poor soldier who was beheaded right outside of the barracks. They still think they are a bloody empire. Screw them.
Kepha says
Some years back there was an equally horrible case in my natal state of Noooo Joysey. An malevolent imbecile in a black robe–oops, a judge–just to show how liberal and enlightened she was, ordered a battered Moroccan immigrant woman to stay with the perpetrating husband prior to the divorce being finalized, since the marriage was contracted in Morocco under Sharia. Thank God that a higher court ruled otherwise before the woman got hurt again.
The only option either here, Britain, Australia, Canada, or any other country where the ordinary folk have a vote is to make sure the parties of the Left lose lots and lots of elections, and we get a few judges who have a bit of sense about these things.
jihad3tracker says
As a Yankee from birth, I am the first to agree that we here in the U.S. have millions of citizens — in every state — who are clueless about jihad.
WILLFULL IGNORANCE HAPPENS IN BRITAIN, OF COURSE, TOO.
Robert Spencer calls attention to such dangerous fantasy ANY PLACE it appears — NOT to do so is
aiding and abetting the end of Western freedom.

I just don’t get how after 9/11 anyone can be clueless about Jihad.

Another example is the church of England who the queen is the head of thinks the quaran should be cream at Charles’ coronation. Do you need more evidence? They are an islamicized European company and the Brits Allie it like sheeple.
mortimer says
No. It’s an example of the Leftard cultural Marxists in BRUSSELS telling UK how to run its internal affairs.
The CofE has a growing number of clerics who have figured Islam out and they are beginning to say so. They are aware of the murders of Anglicans by Muslim terrorists!

No Problem! Screw the EU, the HRC, and any other jerks that want to join him. Put him on a plane destined for Algeria with 2 SAS men and drop him off period. He’s an Algerian and the UK isn’t accepting him back.

A guy who wants to kill his family can’t be deported because of his right to family life.

Neil Jennison says
Nobody on who sympathises with Robert Spencer and who posts on this site disagrees when he points out the insane human rights laws that Britain is subject to.
Of course the European Court of Human Rights is a parody of what it was meant to be and Britain should have no connection to it.
But as we do at the moment, this is alas the law we must follow and we must follow the rule of law. The answer is to change the law. not ignore it.

Well 900 comments at the Daily mail, all disapproving.
St. Croix says
What the feck? Nothing Monty Python could ever come up with would be as ridiculous as this reality. Right to a family life? And his children don’t have a right to a LIFE? Never mind a “family life.” How about a right to stay alive? The world is looking more surreal with every moment. Lately I’ve been thinking of Ionesco’s play “Rhinocerous” and it really does fit with the Islamification currently in progress.
mortimer says
Leftard ILLOGIC!
“doesn’t mention that this man is a Muslim, identifying him only as an “Algerian national.” But virtually everyone in Algeria is Muslim”
Calling him ‘Algerian’ is not considered ‘racist’, even though Algerians are a racial group, but calling him ‘Muslim’ would be ‘racist’, even though ‘Islam’ is not a race.
The Leftard political correctness is becoming an ongoing joke.

“Britain Suicide Watch Update” should instead be “Britain Suicide by Slow Bleed Update” or “Transmogrification of Britain Update.”
A suicide watch means a watch for an attempt at suicide. Britain, however, has already committed the act that will lead to her death. It is like watching someone who has already slit his veins as an act of suicide. We are watching to see when life departs from the body, leaving behind only a blood-drained carcass.
Or, should we say “Transmogrification of Britain Update.” After all, the entity – in whatever name – will continue to exist, though in a radically different (and vulgar) form. This transformation occurring through subtle changes along a continuum, is barely noticeable to the inattentive.
St. Croix says
When I first read your comment I thought you wrote “Brain Suicide Watch Update.”
TH says
Democracy only workd where there is a an educated and virtous citizenry, at least of good percentage of such. Neither is it what Lincoln proclaimed when he stated that it is goverment of the people, for the people and by the people. The political establishment and the media manipulate the citizens, plus there is only one political ideology and that is the leftist one. The right has simply surrendered and bought into leftie principles. Whether it be Republicans or Democrats in the U.S. or Labour or Tories in Britain, there is almost no difference between them and political campaigns are highly oquestrared maniuplation and deciet of the oridnary citizen, who is mostly involved in day to day tasks, and supposes the those elected to govern will do what needs to be done. The left promotes its version of compassion, such things as “animal rights”, the environment, global warming, and the rest so that to contradict their theses which are converted into mindless dogmas is opening onself to ridicule by the mainstream media. Of course, the compassion paracticed by the leftie is selective. It is not extended to unborn babies or to the elderly who are fair game for lethal injections or other forms of euthanasia.
So, as regards Islam, since the left has itself convinced that religion is out of date, and not in tune with their “progressitve” mentality they are willing to swallow the lie that Islam is a religion of peace, because if they didn’t they would have to reexamine a host of their convictions and their ideology, as task they are not willing to undertake, as human beings are mostly lazy and unwilling to change. Any of them who know the real doctrine and history of Islam and still proclain it a religion of peace, are involved in fantasy and wishful or magical thinking due to fear. They know that muslims are not peace lovers, as they cannot deny the muslim reaction to the Danish cartoons, or the fact that most muslims celebrated 9/11 and the recent atrocities in the Jerusalem synagogue. They are in denial and maybe hope that by being nice to muslims that they will in turn be nice to them. The left is also incapable of understanding the fanaticism of yihadis as they have only fuzzy principles themselves. Of course, there is also the hope that somehow jihadism will go away just by ingnoring it or being nice to the jihadis.
In the thirties of the last century, many lefties intellectuals went on pilgrmage to the Soviet Union to discover how the brave new world of real socialism was being implemented by Stalin. Most of them on returning to Britain published glowing reports of the wonders of socialims under Stalin, precisely at the time that Stalin was killing millions of his fellow Communists in the great purges. Malcolm Muggerridge was one of them, except that on return he told the real story of what Stalin was up to only to be ridiculed. Pablo Neruda, the poet, even wrote “An Ode to Stalin”. Einstein commented that two things amazed him: the order of the universe and the capacity of human beings for self-deception. After the fall of the Soviet Union many of the left got invovled in campaigns in favour of the envirnoment, such as those in Greenpeace, global warming, radical feminism and other such.
EnglishRevolution says
I’m actually glad that the government keeps doing such insanely incompetent things like this. Why, if they were not, people would never be angry enough to demand, and to vote for, change.
The Tories called us racists for mentioning immigration (very Stalin), and then swung the other way and promised a halt on immigration. And then Germany said no and Cameron instantly surrendered. They have now officially stopped competing with ukip. They are now a party for defeatists.
Labour looked the other way while Muslim rats raped the nation’s daughters – for the whole 13 years they were in power. They are unapologetic, and now they are on record for wanting to ban sweets, that’s candy to you. They are a party for dangerous idiots.
The Lib Dems made the singular mistake of getting elected. They are now history.
Ukip is consistently polling high, and it is almost a certainty that they will hold the balance of power, and will not negotiate with the Tories unless that nitwit Cameron goes, and an EU referendum is held.
The general election is in six months. Kindly reserve your collective judgement of the nation until the end of May.
Jay Boo says
Hate to say this but Germany is still marching in appeasement lockstep with Turkey and others.
Wellington says
Reading your post, EnglishRevolution, lifted my spirits. May your nation in May do an exceedingly sensible thing by voting for the UKIP in large numbers. As the UK goes, so may all the West and so this particular upcoming election is indeed a critical one.
Down with Cameron. Down with the major parties which have stupidly and cravenly allowed themselves to be dhimmified. Yes, sometimes some kind of a revolution is necessary to set a nation straight. No nation in history has been better at this in a bloodless or minimally bloodless way than has Britain. May Britannia do it once again.
Wellington says
Robert Spencer has been no harder on Britain than he has been on his own country. Anyone disputing this, provide the evidence.
On a related note, it serves no purpose for those in the Anglo-Saxon sphere, i.e., the UK, America, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, to go after one another other than with some occasional standard ribbing here and there along with some basic truths stated from time to time. I am an American first, last, always, proudly and only, and yet I chose to go by the name of “Wellington” out of respect for the Mother Country. I also think no greater human being has existed on this planet over the past century than Winston Churchill (whose birthday, quite coincidentally, at least I believe coincidentally, is today).
What those in the Anglo-Saxon sphere, and all others from whatever other sphere, who oppose Islam’s wretched designs on all of us must put front and center at all times is our unity of purpose and not any disagreements among us, which compared to the former, are of little to no consequence.
Islam is the common enemy to all who cherish liberty, equality under the law, women’s rights and other laudable things like musical theater, a true Golden Rule for all, and fine beer. Nothing should distract nor deter us from this realization and the determination to do all in our power to thwart what Islam wants to do to us all.
ecosse1314 says
With all due respect to a worthy poster …..the Scots Irish and Welsh are not in the anglo-saxon sphere.
Wellington says
Duly noted, ecosse1314. Generally I try to make sure I don’t leave out those impressive three groups of Celts you mentioned when dealing with the British world, though I might add that I meant Anglo-Saxon in its cultural sense and not in any ethnic way. For instance, I myself don’t have a drop of English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish blood in me (I’m of Polish and German descent) and yet I consider myself to be very much a part of the Anglo-Saxon world. But I am aware that it is much easier for someone like me to use the term “Anglo-Saxon” in any sense than it is for someone who is Scottish, Irish or Welsh. So, once again, duly noted.
pumbar says
I don’t recall sub-headlines that read, “Dhimmified America”, “America galloping headlong towards its own destruction”, “the abject weakness of contemporary America”, “America, in short, is a spent force”. I could carry on quite easily.
Wellington says
In the interest of accuracy, pumbar, It does appear that Britain is definitely more dhimmified at the present time than America is. I take no relish in this, nor should anyone else in the anti-jihad alliance, but this might help to explain the phrases you cited, though once again Robert Spencer has been very hard on his own country, and particularly on America’s elites.

The right to family life in Islam, includes Quran 4:34, sunnah and sharia law.
The judge was bowing it sharia.

I hope you are right my friend. However, it is not getting any better here in USA either. When will we start fighting the main cause of the problem, which is ISLAM?

Neil Jennison – of course, you are right, sad to say
Mustapha – you strike exactly the right note. But where is the ‘little child’ that will lead us?
Atilla – you describe my country as a “shithole”. Do us a favour. Lose yourself somewhere else.
To the blogger who says some referred to the “colonies”. Exactly how old are you?
To the blogger who says the C of E want Moslem prayers at a coronation. Please get it right. It was one, dotty, retired Bishop.
And to so many of you…..you exhibit a level of intolerance and at times ignorance which undermine and cheapen what we all basically believe. Why? Is it a kind of collective ‘let’s feel good’ onanism? Whatever it is, it does this cause no good.

At this rate one could suspect that David Cameron is a closet Muslim……

Philip
That Islam is or has become a threat to civilization as we know it; that the Koran cannot be considered a holy book judged by the standard of the law of love; that M was almost certainly a crook.
But the real test is this. How do we treat each other believing broadly as we do, and are we really any better than the next man? Many of the comments I read suggest not – and that includes yours – and all the clever captions and phony ‘sics’ won’t change that.
David says
I agree with many things in this article however this is :-
“But virtually everyone in Algeria is Muslim, and it is because he is Muslim, not because he is Algerian, that British officials are bending over backwards to accommodate him.”
Is not true if he were an white American criminal he would still be able to claim human rights and stay here. Our crazy system maybe pro criminal but they don’t have to be Muslims.
Carl says
What is going on now in the UK is equivalent to inviting over one million Waffen SS and their families to live in Britain in the early 1930’s. Not even Churchill could have saved them.
Joe says
You are not “too hard” on the British. Britain is at least 20 years behind the Netherlands and France in having anything like a suitable response to the islamic invasion.
When the British realise that something needs to be done, it will be too late.
Beatrix17 says
Do they vote for judges in England? Vote the SOB off the bench. What an idiot!

If we did vote for Judges – he would have no future. Sadly
a) we don’t vote for our judges
b) I think it might not be allowed under European rights laws, even if we wanted to.
Jae M says
The British that believe in keeping their culture and freedoms need to stop the silence and speak up. They need to act up, that is what seems to get attention for the Muslims in the UK. Come together people and do anything, write letters in mass to the politicians if that is all you feel safe doing. A lesser point but as Britain gives away it’s culture and belief system, they will lose tourists and money.I know I would not want to visit there again. People do not go there to see what Middle East in the UK looks like.
clifford hall says
Jae M
There are groups in the UK which stand for what we all wish however we express that. The problem is they will not band together. There is much in-fighting and jockeying for power – and in any event they are portrayed as “wicked and vile, vermin and scum” – in fact just the kind of empty language I read on Jihad Watch blogs day in and day out.
Uncle Vladdi says

girigirihanasu says
Nobody minds when you complain about ridiculous British politicians and useful idiots, Robert. It’s just frustrating when the whole nation is disparaged. There’s a clamour against the authorities here now… just read the comments section of “The Telegraph” and even the ultra-PC “Guardian” on subjects related to Jihad and the general betrayal of the country by the self-serving fools in power. We need support, not constant ridicule. I know you tried to support the EDL, but they were not the right vehicle for the message.
girigirihanasu says
… IMHO of course.
Crixus says
Agreed,
on top of this, the point of the article is to highlight the huge amount of resistance there is in the UK to the application of a European Law. The HR act is forced upon us because we are members of the EU.
Before you have a pop at us, Robert, you need to understand that as part of the EU the UK is not responsible for all of the daft laws that have been brought in in recent years. This is exactly the reason why a general election in May will be fought over our membership of the EU.
Please, get your facts right

I can remember when 9 what is now the ) EU was The Common market, and the goal was for free trade.
