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

UK Muslim gets 18 months prison dawah for pro-Islamic State FB postings

Apr 25, 2015 7:17 pm By Robert Spencer

Hassan MunirIncluding instructions on how to make explosives. What might Hassan Munir do in Terrified Dhimmi Britannia after he is freed in 18 months (or sooner)?

“Bradford man, 27, jailed for posting IS terrorist links on Facebook,” by Michael Black, Bradford Telegraph & Argus, April 24, 2015:

A TERRORIST sympathiser in Bradford has been jailed for 18 months for posting links to an Islamic State (IS) magazine on his Facebook page.

Hassan Munir, 27, of Lynton Avenue, Heaton, posted a link to Dabiq 4, a propaganda magazine produced by the extremist terror group.

The Old Bailey heard that Munir had been repeatedly warned by Facebook and police officers after he posted jihadi material on his page – including material about beheadings.

Sentencing him today, Mr Justice Saunders said the magazine posed a serious danger because it incited people to take up arms for IS, which is also known as Isil and Isis.

He said: “On October 14, 2014 he posted on his Facebook page a link to a document called Dabiq 4.

“It is a document distributed by Isil’s media arm. It is lengthy and is clearly a professionally-produced document.

“It encourages the reader to fight and kill for Isil, both in the Western countries who are against their activities, and they are encouraged to help fight with Isil in countries where Isil fight.

“It is the sort of document that could well influence susceptible people, including the young, to do what the document urges them to do.”

Munir said he posted a link to the extremist document on his Facebook page “in case me loses it like”, but the judge said he did not believe him.

He has between 400 and 600 friends on his Facebook page.

He previously posted details of how to make explosives and other material supporting IS.

He was warned by police, but ignored them.

Mr Justice Saunders said: “Mr Munir denies he is a supporter of Isil. His case is that he has sympathy with some of the extremist cause but he’s against the acts of violence.

“In light of the material on his Facebook, I find that difficult to accept.”

The judge said he was passing a jail term to make it clear a “deterrent” is important in such cases….

Oh yeah, that’ll work.

    I blame the West.
    YES, It is all our fault.

    Islam is such a laughable buffoonery that these poor Muslims should naturally wish to recoil in total humiliation by the shame at merely being called such a disgraceful name as …. MUSLIM.
    While this poor guy need only peek at the ton of evidence rightly mocking Muhammad’s pathetically ridiculous claim at being a MESSENGER from his laughable made up sock-puppet god that he referred to as Allah to realize Islam’s disgrace, enablers in the West grovel at the mention of the pimping Allah HO named MO.
    Instead of helping him with a hint of truth intervention, the evil West allows him to roll in the filthy humiliating swine soup of Islam by pretending that Muhammad wasn’t really the most vile imbecile to ever to walk upright.
    All it took was a few beheadings to enable the shaking in their boots West to forget that Islam is an obvious JOKE that needs constant mocking and not appeasement reverence.
    Our refusal to laugh at Muslims and their stupidity is why poor Muslims like him are not ashamed to call themselves the most humiliating of names …MUSLIM

    It is our fault for not being kind enough to mock the hell out of Muslims.

    @Jay Airahs.
    Yeah – so while I wholeheartedly embrace your idea of “mock the hell out of Muslims”, I nonetheless can’t help mentioning the element of the demonic in the ‘allah-god’ deception! Remember, the David Koresh cult in Waco and the Manson cult and the Jim Jones cult in Guyana – not to mention the Nazis during WWII.

    Sadly, there are impressionable people in the world who gravitate toward stupidity. What’s even more pathetic is that FEAR is largely the reason that stupid individuals get mixed up in mind-controlling deceptions! The question comes to mind – ‘IS EDUCATION THE ANSWER’??? And my answer to that is ‘yes’ and ‘no’!

    ‘YES’, because all freedom-loving people everywhere should be shouting from the housetops, the words of Winston Churchill as he unapologetically berated ‘mohammedanism’ (lower-case used intentionally). He single-handedly rescued Britain from the worst attack of tyranny in the twentieth century. And that brings me to the ‘NO’.

    Unfortunately, education simply is not sufficient to correct wrong thinking – it only sheds light on the problem, at least that’s what it should do, when it’s based on Truth.
    And yes, I believe in absolutes! But to a greater or lesser degree, a majority of people nowadays DO NOT BELIEVE IN ABSOLUTES! Our world has gone stark raving mad with the PC concept of ‘anything goes’!

    Yes, while I totally agree that ‘mohammedanism’ is a philosophy of a 7th century blood-thirsty pedophile neanderthal FOOL, I would simply add the concept of “What is Truth” to that equation. Jesus Christ stated very emphatically, ‘I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, NO MAN COMES TO THE FATHER, EXCEPT THROUGH ME….’

    To me, HE is exactly who he said he was, THE UNIQUE Savior and Creator of the universe who became one of us in the flesh. To others, He is just a fool and sadly, those are the ones who believe in ‘anything goes’, to and including the diabolical concept of the demon-god, allah!!!

      Much more proactive Offence — not just reactive Defense

      Yes, impressionable people in the world need (much more) than mere education.
      My point is not for us to educate about Islam’s danger as much as to eviscerate Islam right at its rotted core by exposing its glaring weakness to the whole world (including impressionable people)

      In fact, bad education is worse than no education about Islam.
      So many politicians wrongly assume that Muslims will be less violent if only non-Muslims show even more groveling reverence toward Islam and Muhammad when they exact opposite is true.
      Muhammad was an obvious fraud. The evidence is so incredibly overwhelming and yet they wish to continue (feeding the bear).

    the Way
    the Truth
    and the Life
    Some will say those words are meant literally and others say figuratively (by Jesus’ example), so the possible choice that some will make is not limited to just the (either / or) two choices you listed. I could say more about how that is sometimes also misused to incorrectly lead to a ‘chosen people exclusivity’ within Christianity but it would soon lead us off topic, but you are certainly correct to show a stark contrast of the Good News that Jesus Christ offers while Islam offers only carnal lust and a world of hate ad misery.

    Peace
    Muslims who follow Muhammad grasp at vanity rather than surrender to God and underestimate the immense power of:
    “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

    Islam is more vulnerable than it seems.
    The light of truth reveals Islam’s emptiness.

    Here in the UK an 18 month sentence means he will be out in 9 months or less. Plus he will be with other muslims, getting special food and special treatment. UK prisons are holiday camps these days – although I have never actually been inside one. In UK prisons , there are a disproportionate number of muslims compared with the muslim population – probably caused by “Islamophobia”. You may have seen news from the UK about Ed Milliband (father active Communist who escaped Nazis, was given refuge by Britain and then spent all his time criticizing us). Red Ed proposes that, if elected ( and there is a very good chance of that ), he will bring in a law specifically defining criticism of muslims as “Race Hate”. Any criticism. Watch this space. Election May 7th.

    Mr. Justice Saunders said the magazine “posed a serious danger”. Why was that ? “..because it incited people to take up arms for IS… It encourages the reader to fight and kill for IS..”
    The Koran, over and over again, incites people to take up arms for Islam, to fight and kill for Islam. The Koran forms part of Islamic law, with the death penalty for denying any verse. Evidently the Koran “poses a serious danger”.
    Could British judges turn their attention to the Koran?

      The British Politicians should read the Koran and the hadith. Perhaps their views that islam is a religion of peace might change. Ooops Blair read it as “bedtime reading” and thought it all OK. So they would first need to be coached in the timeline of the Koran and the concept of abrogation.
      They should also consider Ergogan’s words “there is no moderate of immoderate islam – just islam”. Hence “nothing to do with islam” is shown as a complete lie.

    The British are only aggressive towards Christians, secular Muslims and other hard working ethnic minority who respect the British laws and integrate very well. Yes, what they are going to do when he is out of prison? quarter of this people supported the Charlie Hebdo killings and many of them sympathise IS, they like leaving their comfortable homes in Britain to join dangerous, dirty IS. The fanatic population in Britain is growing and they are threat to safety and freedom but it seems not many people care, it is strange!.

    Please, Mr. Spencer, translate Arabic words into English before using them in your headlines. You are just adding fuel to the Caliphate by making westerners learn Arabic.
