Of course. The UK Home Office was too busy keeping out foes of jihad terror to give proper attention to this.
Britain has a steadily lengthening record of admitting jihad preachers without a moment of hesitation. Syed Muzaffar Shah Qadri’s preaching of hatred and jihad violence was so hardline that he was banned from preaching in Pakistan, but the UK Home Office welcomed him into Britain.
The UK Home Office recently admitted Shaykh Hamza Sodagar into the country, despite the fact that he has said: “If there’s homosexual men, the punishment is one of five things. One – the easiest one maybe – chop their head off, that’s the easiest. Second – burn them to death. Third – throw ’em off a cliff. Fourth – tear down a wall on them so they die under that. Fifth – a combination of the above.”
May’s government also recently admitted two jihad preachers who had praised the murderer of a foe of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws. One of them was welcomed by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Meanwhile, the UK banned three bishops from areas of Iraq and Syria where Christians are persecuted from entering the country.
“Exclusive: More than 40 convicted terrorists have used human rights laws to remain in UK,” by Robert Mendick, Telegraph, June 24, 2017:
More than 40 foreign terrorists have used human rights laws to remain in the UK, according to an unpublished report delayed by the Home Office.
The study highlights the near insurmountable problem for the Government in deporting dangerous jihadists and follows a series of Islamic State-inspired attacks in the UK.
In the court cases, lawyers – typically funded through legal aid – have successfully prevented foreign-born terror suspects from being sent back to their home countries.
At a time when Britain’s security services are fully stretched, the additional burden of monitoring so many foreign terrorist inevitably adds to the strain.
Details are contained in a report ordered by Theresa May when Home Secretary into a scheme called Deportation with Assurances (DWA).
The scheme – in theory – allows the UK to expel terror suspects with guarantees they will not be mistreated or even tortured in their home country.
But it appears to have broken down allowing terrorists to remain in the UK.
The report is potentially embarrassing for the prime minister because it is expected to highlight the collapse of an initiative she pushed hard for while in the Home Office….
Jaladhi says
Yup, we should give these terrorists and murderers “human rights”! It seems somebody forgets the word “human” in human rights before, letting the terrorists hide behind these laws!
martin says
How can we possibly give muslims ‘human’ rights when islam has made them SUBHUMAN.
Angel Gabriel says
Another example of how leftist ideology aligns itself with Islamic terrorists.
They write laws that are informed by their identity-politics ideology and surprise, surprise, end up being completely divorced from reality. So then the public ends up less safe, the police end-up more stressed and the march of sharia-creep remains unimpeded.
John A. Marre says
Human rights are for humans, and don’t apply to head choppers.
Charli Main says
These pieces of Muslim shyte hate Britain and the British way of life but will fight tooth and nail to remain in the country they loath and despise.
Now let me see if I can figure out why that would be. Ah yes !!! The FREE housing, FREE healthcare, FREE money and the FREEDOM to carry on living, dressing and behaving as they did in what MUSLIM SHITHOLE they came from.
Jaladhi says
Yup – “we don’t have to work for livelihood and devote all our time to jihad murders of the infidels” – what can be more attractive than suck infidels of their hard earned money and then chop their heads off!! Totally Islamic Muslim thinking!
Wonder why the infidels haven’t caught up with this smart scheme!!
One must agree the West is gullible and moronic!
mortimer says
Quote: “More than 40 convicted terrorists have used human rights laws to remain in UK”
The beefing up of anti-terrorist legislation will be easier after Brexit. Any terrorist suspect in UK should be expertly deprogrammed.
JAR says
Perhaps, mortimer, you have elsewhere detailed what you think is required to get a Muslim “deprogrammed.” And maybe there are some weak-willed Muslims that have gone along with the jihadist platform only to be part of the in-crowd or avoid their own execution.
But with all due respect to your perpetual, fine postings here at JW, I do not see how you can deprogramme someone (or very many) who is a fanatic, someone who is looking for a rewarding outlet for his or her inborn inclination to violence, rape, supremacy, and such like. As the warden said about Cool Hand Luke, “Some men you just can’t reach.” Which is how they want it: to slay and be slain in service to Allah in hopes of reaching Muslim heaven.
You are asking an awful lot, in a world that now sees Islamics as a protected class worthy of all deference. How could governments and citizens ever judge their religion to be so requiring of reformation? The masses, many of them Christian, have been so effectively programmed not to judge others (Matthew 7.1), but rather to be tolerant.
Perhaps you can point to successful examples where terrorists were “expertly deprogrammed”? Not that I’m against efforts in doing so. I’d just like to know where it’s been proven a good or effective avenue to pursue. It must needs be an expensive venture, and would require persons with knowledge, courage, and skill, personnel that, I am guessing, is sorely lacking.

“Human Rights” à la UN = the Religion that kills !

Tom says
They, just like mass murderers everywhere, should forfeit ANY rights once convicted of such heinous crimes.
Anything less means we do not take the threat of terrorist murder seriously and ordinary people are not worthy of justice.
Albert says
The idea of human rights is needed to argue against the harms to women, gay people, and apostates in Islamic theocracies, and also within places like the UK where there are honor killings and FGM. Amnesty International uses the concept of human rights for good use in this way. But there is a disturbing trend in places like the UK, Germany, Sweden, and Canada (i.e., the West): the use (or mis-use) of human rights laws to punish legitimate criticism of religious violence as alleged “hate speech” and also, as in this case, to delay the deportation of alleged terrorists.
The argument given (and I don’t see it mentioned above) is that the alleged terrorists will be tortured and murdered in the places they are deported to. Under international law it is illegal to deport someone who will face their death in this way. So that puts the Western countries in an impossible bind: jailing them indefinitely so they won’t commit terrorist acts because they can’t be returned to where they came from. This is in part why Guantanamo Bay was built in the U.S.
The civil rights of the terror suspects is said to be further violated by indefinite imprisonment in these places, which are hugely expensive for the taxpayer and which can be training grounds for jihadism in the prisoners are not in solitary confinement. It’s an impossible situation for those wanting to respect the civil right of all but at the same time combat terrorism.
The root cause of the problem it is the policy of mass migration, which lets in so many people from countries where there is a strong anti-Western sentiment, often for humanitarian reasons. Inevitably some will slip through who are up to no good. The EU is most guilty of this for letting in so many people, some of whom they must have known where jihadis. It is probably one of the most irresponsible acts by a politician in the history of politics, and that is saying a lot.
Gary says
Ahhhh..!!!… in Canada we make it much easier on terrorists. Actually there’s no need to even take your complaints to any tribunal… No need because our left wing liberal government have just past a law that says ” Once a Canadian always a Canadian “..that’s right..even going so far as to re-issue citizenship to terrorist locked up in prison who had been stripped of citizenship by the previous Conservative government. This after he tweeted to the world that our border is open…”.. Come on in..”.
Yes what a lovely treasons government we have protecting it’s true citizens . Our only hope would be a misplaced bullet, a military invasion by our southern nabour, or for the citizenship of Canada to take matters into there own hands.
Jack Holan says
Ms May what are we to do with her? I can’t bring myself to a serious way of thinking call her PM unless I think of another acronym and I’m not one to color an argument this way. The bottom line is how many citizens through policy and cover up,restricting the security forces has she killed? The Madame Police Commissioner too addressing multiculturalism in the same breath that she is giving a news conference about a terrorist attack and casualties is obviously a Kook of the first order. I’m certain behind the scene Mayor of London Sadiq Khan is quite comfortable about the infamous 40 amongst the citizens. After all he also mentioned how paramount multiculturalism is for a cosmopolitan metropolis like London. You don’t get more multicultural than claiming 40 convicted terrorists. Now as far as Ms May and her ilk the day is almost here that Common Sense will prevail over Political Polemics (Hogwash) sorry Sadiq I forgot the PC Police. After the next Islamic Terrorism in the UK and you start to give your lofty egalitarian lesson of Supposed Islamophobia versus dead bodies based on hatred YOU Ms May should wear a hat for the ripe tomatoes & eggs and ear plugs when survivor families call out that you are a murderer and traitor!

When a country has a spineless jellyfish as its political leader it’s inevitable that they’ll be forever blaming the Courts for their own lack of commitment and resolve.
RationalVoice says
The UK has always been a sucker to Muslims claiming to be refugees seeking human rights,students etc,etc.I had one living in the flat above claiming to be a refugee and a student of human rights.He was about 17 and made a nuisance of himself for a couple of years before leaving his “peppercorn” rent flat subsidized by benefits for somewhere else .Didn’t go to college either !! A lot of these “refugees” are just the undesirables these countries don’t want.In this case Iran
A lot of them are given citizenship after 5 years no matter what they do.Its always the magic figure of 5 years.Does a leopard change its spots after 5 years? I don’t think so !!!
