UK: “A man from Liverpool” charged with attempting to obtain a chemical weapon

Feb 16, 2015 4:19 pm By Robert Spencer

BeatlesThe BBC deigns to tell us his name, Mohammed Ammer Ali, but other than that tells us only that he is “a man from Liverpool.” As is typical of the mainstream media, it makes no mention whatsoever of the fact that there is a jihad against the West, and that Mohammed Ammer Ali likely considers himself to be a soldier of that jihad. This kind of coverage would be like reporting that on December 7, 1941, a group of men from Japan destroyed some ships at Pearl Harbor, with no hint that it was an act of war or that the Japanese Empire was behind it.

“Man charged over ‘chemical weapon,'” BBC, February 16, 2015 (thanks to Marc):

A man from Liverpool has been charged with attempting to obtain a chemical weapon, police have said.

Mohammed Ammer Ali, 31, is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court in central London on Tuesday.

He was arrested on Wednesday, when officers from North West Counter Terrorism Unit and Merseyside Police searched five Merseyside addresses.

Officers have uncovered no plan or threat of an imminent attack either at home or abroad, police said.

The suspect is accused of attempting to have a chemical weapon in his possession between January 10 and February 12, contrary to the Criminal Attempts Act 1981 and the Chemical Weapons Act 1996.

    It’s not even front-page news for the BBC, buried away there, “chemical weapons” no big thing after all, happens every day.

      Well that makes sense, since this is a growing trend and the poor guy was probably misunderstood. (sarcasm). Telling the truth is the new hate crime.

      So what will be his punishment? Two weeks in jail so he can toughen up and commit an even greater crime – like a mass murder?

      If you take Islamic logic to its’ ultimate logical conclusion you may find the neither Mohammad, nor Islam are Islamic.

      Well, anyway Taqiyya is.

      No Dhimmi idiot who proclaims that Islam is peacefull ever bothers to acknowledge what was knows for fourteen hundred years:

      “Deen Mohammad BeSeif” – the law and religion of Mohammad are by the sword.

      Peacefull, my ace.

    The BBC’s daily political bias is getting worse.

    Its preferential treatment of Islam is blatant.

    And there are no plans to reform the BBC’s publicly financed political bias.

      The BBC is packed with Arab and Islamic names and looks presenters who far outnumber the indigenous British names and looks ones, to an extent that by far outweighs the already distorted demographics that disadvantages indigenous British people.

    Why did he go that route for chemical weapons?

    No…a Muslim with the makings of a chemical weapon…mustn’t make a fuss…we all need that much chemical fertilizer…enough to cover several fields…who’s to say?…unfair to characterize a whole religion with the desire to take over the world by violent means…jihad has nothing to do with Islam.

  11. Sam says

    Feb 16, 2015 at 7:01 pm

    Let’s not jump to the conclusion because his name is Mohammed and asking for chemical weapons. He may be stressed because of his low welfare check or the discrimination he faces in UK for being a Muslim. We can not say he is a Jihadist until he cuts our throat. Even then it is OK because it is their culture and this may not have anything to do with Islam, the religion of peace.

    ………………………………………

    Great to see that Robert Spencer can still maintain a sense of humor in the face of this grim insanity—even if the humor has to, necessarily, be pretty dark at times. Remember when the Fab Four were Liverpool’s most famous modern export? Now we have fine JIhadists like good Merseyside lad Mohammed Ammer Ali…

    The Fab Four from Liverpool took up the anti-war cause, especially John Lennon. Perhaps it’s time for Yoko Ono to reflect on todays ‘irregular’ wars and take the moral high ground. I’m sure John would have spat the dummy by now and spoken out about this current mess, perhaps even surpassing the courage of John Cleese.

    • Semeru says

      Feb 16, 2015 at 11:55 pm

      John Lennon was a hard core leftard hypocrite who would most probably be a moslem today

      There is very little mention of him supporting Abil Malik (Michael X)

      Abdul Malik, he founded the Racial Adjustment Action Society, and became the self-appointed leader of a Black Power commune on Holloway Road, North London called the “Black House.” John Lennon and Yoko Ono donated a bag of their hair to be auctioned for the benefit of the Black House.

      They pay several visits to Michael Abdul Malik, also known as Michael X, a Trinidadian Black Power advocate whose Black House cultural center Lennon was supporting at the time.

      The Black House burned down in mysterious circumstances, and soon Michael X and four colleagues were arrested for extortion. His bail was paid by John Lennon in January 1971.

      In February 1971, Michael X fled to his native Trinidad, where he started an agricultural commune devoted to Black empowerment 16 miles east of the capital, Port of Spain. “The only politics I ever understand is the politics of revolution,” he told the Trinidad Express. “The politics of change, the politics of a completely new system.”

      He began another commune, also called the Black House, which also burned down in February 1972. Michael X was tried in 1972 for the murder of Joseph Skerritt, a member of his “Black Liberation Army” who refused to obey orders to attack a local police station. Skerrit’s body was discovered with that of Gale Ann Benson by police who had come to the commune to investigate the fire. The bodies had been buried in a shallow grave. Benson, also called Hale Kimga, was the daughter of Conservative MP Leonard F. Plugge.

      A witness at his trial claimed that Michael X struck Benson with a machete on her neck. Michael X fled to Guyana a few days after the fire at his commune and was captured there. He was charged with Benson’s murder but never tried for the crime.

      The Save Malik Committee — whose members included Angela Davis, Dick Gregory, and Kate Millet — and others, including the well-known radical lawyer William Kunstler who was paid for by John Lennon,pleaded for clemency, but he was hanged in 1975.

        If lennon was alive today he could easily have written

        Imagine there’s no Christians,
        Its easy if you try,
        No Pope
        No George Bush.
        Infidels will die.

        Imagine all the Muslims
        Ruling all the world

        Imagine there’s no America
        This isn’t hard to do
        No one to kill or blow up
        and no Hebrew too

        Imagine all the Muslims
        Living life in peace?
        Allah!

        I have issued this FATWA
        and I am not the only one

        By the sword you’ll join us
        and the world will live as one

        Imagine no infidels
        I’m sure it will be true
        No kidnap no beheadings

        Got rid of all the Jews
        Imagine all the Muslims
        Ruling all the world
        Allah

        I have issued this FATWA
        but I’m not the only one
        and by the sword you’ll join us
        and the world will live as one.

        Dear Semeru, I’m familiar with John Lennon’s connection to the failed Trinidad Commune and other hopeless causes that he was associated with to greater and lesser extents. I’ve read all the major biographies of The Beatles and Lennon. He certainly was a mixed character, but a thoughtful singer songwriter and together with McCartney were probably the greatest English composers for a hundred years. Given he died 35 years ago it’s a pretty wide conjecture to guess where he may have stood regarding the current Jihad Crisis. He certainly didn’t have the insecure, head in the sand mentality of Cat Stevens who seemed to have taken too many drugs and ‘dropped out’ into the rigidly secure world of Islam like so many Western converts since. Lennon was a loose canon who got tired of being hemmed in by other peoples causes. When he smelt a dead rat he couldn’t help telling everyone about it. That’s why I’d guess that John Lennon would have ‘grown up’ over the past 35 years and grown tired of the current charade of a ‘rainbow coalition’ that regularly includes in its ranks the misogynist and intolerant face of Islam. He would probably have been one of the faces of the New Left that has broken ranks out of disgust for what that political movement has degenerated into. So Semeru, the best of The Beatles and John Lennon’s values belongs to those who are standing up to todays oppression and the hideous carnage of the Global Jihad. If John were alive today he probably couldn’t resist speaking up and helping to lead the way forward.

      • Angemon says

        Feb 18, 2015 at 9:41 am

        Yes, but how does that copy/paste job relate to Mohammed Ammer Ali wanting to get a chemical weapon?

        • Matthieu Baudin says

          Feb 18, 2015 at 7:39 pm

          That’s right, a Jihadi living in Liverpool wanted to poison the locals. The people of Liverpool including the friends, families and acquaintances of the Beatles would be stewing privately at this outrage. It’s time for them now to stand up publicly for the good name of their city and the safety of their children.

    A slightly more truthful version from the Daily Mail :

    ” British father-of-two allegedly bought ricin that could kill hundreds of people that was delivered to his home in a toy car but was caught in FBI sting
    Mohammed Ammer Ali, 31, is accused of trying to by £325 of ricin online
    Father-of-two allegedly ordered poison to be sent to his home in Liverpool
    Phials of powder were stashed inside the battery pack of a yellow toy car
    By MARTIN ROBINSON FOR MAILONLINE

    PUBLISHED: 16:18, 17 February 2015 | UPDATED: 17:01, 17 February 2015
    A father-of-two bought enough ricin to kill hundreds of people over the ‘dark web’ and had it shipped to Britain in a toy car but was caught in an anti-terror sting headed by the FBI, it was alleged today.

    Mohammed Ammer Ali, 31, of Liverpool, is accused of trying to buy £325 of the poison from a website in the United States using internet currency Bitcoins.

    Phials of powder were apparently transported in the battery pack of a remote control car and delivered to his home by post. The powder delivered was not ricin.

    Today Ali appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court, London, accused with attempting to possess a chemical weapon between January 10, and February 12 this year.
    He was arrested in a joint operation by the North West counter terrorism unit and Merseyside Police last week after a tip-off from the US authorities.

    Prosecutor Mark Dawson said Ali allegedly attempted to buy 500 milligrams of ricin but this was a sting operation by the FBI in cooperation with British authorities.

    Mr Dawson said 500 milligrams of ricin can be ‘scientifically fatal to a hundred people’.
    The court heard five addresses were raided by the police, which were all believed to be connected with the suspect, and a number of items were seized.

    He was charged with attempting to obtain a chemical weapon between 10 January 2015 and 12 February 2015 contrary to section 1 of the criminal attempts act 1981 and section 2.1(c) of the chemical weapons act 1996.

    Ali, wearing a blue jumper and blue trousers in court, spoke only to confirm his name and address.
    District judge Howard Riddle said: ‘Mr Ali you will next appear at the Central Criminal Court for your next hearing on the March 13’. ”

    Re:

    Sure, because everyone tries to obtain chemical WEAPONS, not as part of an overall plan or threat of an imminent attack, but only for personal therapeutic use – right, libtarded “police” traitors?

    😉

    Every time we notice these traitors enabling and covering up muslim crime, we should call them out about it; why wait to discover what their next crime or overall strategy “really” is, once they’ve already outed themselves AS traitors, in public?!
