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

Muslim found guilty of preparing Islamic State jihad mass murder attack on US forces in UK

Much more of this is to come. The British government is extremely hospitable to preachers of jihad, while making sure to hound and ban foes of jihad terror.

Junead Khan

“Junead Khan: Luton delivery driver found guilty of preparing for Isis terror attack on American forces in UK,” by Lizzie Dearden and Serina Sandhu, Independent, April 1, 2016:

A delivery driver from Luton has been found guilty of preparing to carry out a terror attack on US military personnel in Britain.

Junead Khan, 25, had considered travelling to Syria to fight for Isis but changed his mind and decided to plan an atrocity on home soil, Kingston Crown Court heard.

Prosecutors said an al-Qaeda guide to making a “viable” pipe bomb had been found on his laptop and claimed he scouted out air bases including the US Air Force’s RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk.

Messages between Khan and an Isis fighter in Syria were also found, with the pair discussing the best way to carry out a UK attack.

Following Khan’s arrest in July, police found black flags similar to those used by the so-called Islamic State, as well as photos of Khan posing with them.

He was also convicted alongside his uncle, Shazib Khan, 23, of preparing to go to Syria to join Isis. The pair have been remanded in custody and face sentencing on 13 May.

Both men denied engaging in conduct in preparation of terrorist acts between August 2014 and July last year.

Investigators found Khan had been exchanging messages with an Isis fighter believed to be Junaid Hussain, the British hacker killed by a US drone strike in August.

David Cameron said he and another British militant were recruiting sympathisers to “orchestrate barbaric attacks against the West” including unspecified plots in the UK last summer.

The court heard that Khan and Hussain exchanged messages on the encypted SureSpot app starting on 5 July, with Khan discussing faking a road accident before getting out to attack people.

Hussain claimed he could get him addresses of British soldiers, but added: “Most soldiers live in bases which are protected. I suppose on the road is the best idea. Or if you want akhi (brother) I can tell u how to make a bomb (sic).”

Khan replied: “When I saw these soldiers on road it looked simple but I had nothing on me or wouldve got into an accident with them and made them get out of the car (sic).”

“That’s what the brother done with Lee Rigby,” Hussain added, saying he would send Khan a manual for making a “pressure cooker bomb”….

    This makes me wonder how many other attempts at Jihad have been foiled, that we never hear about!

      Britain has the best and most experienced anti-terrorist network in Europe and one of the best in the world. Leaving the EU won’t weaken us in the slightest.

        Yes–I’m an American with an English mother and many British relatives. I hope the UK leaves the coercive and suicidal EU as spoon as possible.

    Gee, it’s almost as if they despise the West because of what their religion tells them…

    This 1 hr documentary will cure any guilt trips someone may have about the crusades. It exposes Islam for the conquest ideology it is.
    This next documentary shows how the Bible is historically valid.
    This web site shows a different perspective on Christianity than we are used to in the west and I think is far more accurate. http://www.roccoaerrico.com/index_htm_files/903.png

    These videos need to be shared as widely and rapidly as possible
