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

UK: Jailed jihad preacher Anjem Choudary moved to isolation after he refuses to stop preaching Islam

Jul 23, 2017 6:51 pm By Robert Spencer

What are British officials going to do when they discover that Choudary’s “hate” and “extremist views” are far more mainstream among Muslims, and within Islamic tradition, than they had realized?

If they ever discover this, by then it will likely be far, far too late.

“Jailed UK cleric moved to isolation after refuses to stop preaching hate: report,” i24News, July 23, 2017 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):

Notorious UK Islamist cleric Anjem Choudary has been moved into isolation at a high-security jail after he failed to stop preaching his extremist views despite warnings from prison authorities, the Sunday Times reports.

Choudary is reportedly the first known Islamist to be moved to the specially-created unit at HMP Frankland, however the Ministry of Justice has refused to identify the prisoners held in the unit.

Choudary was jailed for five-and-a-half years in September 2016 for encouraging support for the Islamic State militant group. He and co-defendant Mohammed Mizanur Rahman, 33, used a series of talks posted on YouTube to invite backing for the group, and pledged their allegiance to IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

Choudary is the former head in Britain of Islam4UK or al-Muhajiroun, a now banned group co-founded by Omar Bakri Muhammad that called for Islamic law in Britain.

But for two decades the former lawyer, who is of Pakistani descent, managed to stay on the right side of the law….

That’s a vivid illustration of just how supine and compromised British authorities really are.

    If you’re jailed for preaching hate, and you continue preaching hate while in jail, shouldn’t your sentence be extended accordingly?

    • AzB says

      He was jailed for pledging allegiance to ISIL. Along with about 62 other islamist terror groups it’s illegal to give allegiance, where their symbols, display their flags, download or copy their material and so forth.

      Since he’s in prison he’s just gone back to his normal “militant salafi” “soldier of allah” preaching. You raise a good point though i wonder how man prisoners day to day the prison services here talking about ISIL and saying they approve.

      IN theory they’re all guilty under terror offenses. But would require to prove it. Not really possible unless you have a video or a file on a computer.

      This guy is TOTAL poison in any DEMOCRACY ! He is a HATE PREACHER of ISLAM & campaigns tirelessly for the introduction of SHARIA !
      If anyone out there would condone the STONING of a WOMAN it would be this character !!

        Islam is the other name for HATE ,hence what else can one expect from the Muslims .Britain could turn into another AFGHANISTAN in years to come. NEVER HOLD A SNAKE BY ITS TAIL!!!

      The Choudary approach is wrong. No taqiyya with this guy. Only truth. The BBC and Sky News and CNN London need to put this guy in front of the cameras as much as possible and get as many eyes and ears as we can on this guy. He is our best teacher of Islamic doctrine besides its scripture. Amplify him!

    • Don Foss says

      Jul 24, 2017 at 10:22 am

      Choudary is our best teacher of Islamic doctrine and should be amplified, not isolated. Get this man in front of all the cameras and microphones BBC and Sky News have. People need to see the real and honest face of Islam.

      Vic, he has blown is chances of parole that`s for sure. The scum will serve the full time,about 2 and a half years to 3 then he will be free of any probation or other conditions having served half the sentence.. This scum must be dealt with properly as he will not stop. He should have got 15 yrs at the least.

    • Jen says

      Jul 24, 2017 at 8:07 pm

      The English are a special kind of stupid. With all he’s done over so many years, why wouldn’t they have placed him in isolation or found a convenient accident for him in the first place. He is in the same category as Osama bin Laden or Sudam Hussain, just smaller in scope. He deserves the same treatment.

    Was he given a Quran and a prayer mat by the jailers?

      Yes.

    Jul 23, 2017 at 7:48 pm

    I think this is the only way Muslims should be treated in jail, whatever their sentence is, always with solitary confinement, unless they talk like ordinary persons of course. But this is something the observant ones never do.

  4. moeped says

    Jul 23, 2017 at 8:05 pm

    Like Tommy Robinson says, there should be a separate and military style jail for these enemy combatants.

    We need to recognize and acknowledge that we’re in a war and all extremists need to be put down immediately.

    Take them all away and re educate their sick followers. Wholesale sweeping changes are the only way to turn the tide. Military law must apply to these cu*nts.

    The likes of Anjem Choudary, Linda Sarsour, etc are so convinced about the superiority of Islam that they will not shut up for a moment. In fact, they kind of help in exposing Islam. Likes of Anjem Choudhary tell the world, this is Islam – take it or get killed. And please do not blame Anjem. He is just following his perfect men – the worst criminal/murderer/rapist/looter that the mankind has ever known.

  6. leah says

    Jul 23, 2017 at 8:17 pm

    Good he’s been put in isolation, but it’s unfortunate the UK no longer hangs traitors, he would be among the first I’d have hung, absolute scum.

  7. Jack Holan says

    British cousins rather than make the tribe restless just move Terrorists(recruiters propagandists, those who will sway masses using Religion as a tool)without fanfare or announcements. Just so you realize this enemy of the West will never be rehabilitated. He needs to be stripped of his UK citizenship and deported back to Pakistan if they won’t take him drop him off and leave him there

    Sending Choudary to jail was like gifting him a training academy. He is able to preach his message, gain converts and mold them into jihadists like himself. He is a very effective promoter of Islam and probably the most dangerous man in Britain.

    • underbed cat says

      Jul 23, 2017 at 11:15 pm

      Choudary is preaching Islam….it just so happens it is the same teaching as teaching Isis, or any other terror group. The facts are the facts, unless the British leadershiip want to make them public and make better decisions about the facts….because if you do you may be charged with hate speech…or arrested or lose your job or be call racist but you wont be slandering you will be silent on the facts….it is really twisted. It makes you want to scream what the heck is going on ; here very loudly. But at least he is in jail….but he should be isolated and the qurans have to be removed from prison or else you will have a new group of upstarts. The mosques are training centers for teaching islam. If they haven’t figured that out this whole arrest is just for show and no change. Sharia law found is partly found in the Quran….so it is almost insolvable unless they see and are willing to understand the book and give a choice to the muslim….live here follow our law…or here is a ticket to the homeland.

    Fly him to Pakistan, push him out of the plane from about 5000 meters. Problem solved.

    What, did they think this piece of Camel dung would stop his hate preaching inside?
    Morons are in charge, over there here in Australia and elsewhere, there is only ONE way to stop this happening, deport them, even if native born, if they love that religion so much, go and live there

  17. Flavius Claudius Iulianus says

    Jul 24, 2017 at 12:50 am

    And while he’s in isolation they can work on deprogramming him by piping Jayda Fransen’s voice into his cell: “Face us Anjem, you coward!”

      Another video which demonstrates the average person’s ignorance of Islam..

      Choudary is NOT and “Islamic extremist”.

      He is a Muslim.

      A Muslim who knows his Islam.

    “What are British officials going to do when they discover that Choudary’s “hate” and “extremist views” are far more mainstream among Muslims, and within Islamic tradition, than they had realized?”

    I think they already know, they are just determined not to admit the truth. I am not sure they will even admit it once the Islamists start taking control of the cities where muslims are in the majority.

    • Anne Smith says

      Jul 24, 2017 at 4:52 am

      They have already started – we have a Muslim Mayor for London, the appalling Sadiq Khan, who made sure one of his first acts was to ban advertising on London buses which showed scantily clad women. Sharia law is creeping in, its just that our Government doesn’t even know what it is.

      Anjem Choudary’s wife was filmed on an undercover documentary exorting other Muslim women at great length about joining ISIS and how they could further the cause of Sharia and promote Allah. The film made it very clear that she was inciting people to fight for ISIS. The undercover reporter deserves acclaim for her fearless exposure, at some personal risk. However, we are still waiting for any action by our security forces. No doubt this revolting woman is still pouring poison into young Muslim’s ears.

      • PRCS says

        Jul 24, 2017 at 7:51 am

        The Sharia defines a Muslim’s every behavior (yes, EVERY aspect, including toilet etiquette), from birth to death.

        It’s Islam’s Yellow Brick Road

        Let’s call it what it is.

        ISLAMIC law!

  19. Irene Brekelmans says

    Jul 24, 2017 at 4:26 am

    Keith, I think they all know already for a long time, but dear not to admit it, but they got us into this, while we warned them year after year, they took away our freedom of speech, so now it is their turn to get us out of it, they are already too late and the outcome will not be pretty for anyone.
    And we can not deprogram millions of people, plus they will always lie about it anyway. They have to get out of western countries and first fix themselves in their own country. Nothing is going to work with these guys, they are getting worse by the day, and I have a very good idea how it will end, but I still pray for the best. Just at the point muslims will think, we conquered the world, something will happen, unexpectedly, which will blow everybody’s minds for the good of humanity. Keep the faith in Christ, ask Him for help in this enormous conflict, but without violence, that will help the best.

    The headline I think is indicative of the moral and intellectual “bankruptcy” of our culture. Within our culture there is a rejection of reality. Have Europeans and Americans devolved so much that we are willing to reject the freedom of speech because our intellectuals can’t tackle what Choudry is saying? No arguments from our scholars that can counter the absurdities postulated by Islam, Muhammad, and Allah? There is the notion that if we don’t name it, address it, know of it, confront it, then it just doesn’t exist and can’t hurt us. It reminds me of pagan superstitions that place a taboo on speaking a demon’s name lest they call up the evil.

    I have judged Islam to reverse the standard by which rational men define good from evil. The movement to reject rational thought, reason, logic in our own culture has taken its toll on us. So instead of formulating arguments that expose right from wrong our highest authorities choose to shut down thought, speech, and most importantly truth. Choudry is jailed and now jailed again from the jailed population because no one is willing to address what he is saying.

    The insanity reaches out to punish people who do have the intellectual capacity and will to tackle the very ideas Islam has convinced Choudry of.

    He should be re-tried for incitement to murder, many of which have been carried out. That makes him the eqivalent of a murderer anyway, and he be locked up forever.

    Make the koran a book promoting hate speech. As for Anjem, send him to Damascus, most likely they will execute him for supporting ISIS

  27. John A. Marre says

    Jul 24, 2017 at 9:00 am

    Do a Google Images search for “obama one finger hand sign” and compare the results to this picture of the imam.
    Islam is moving in to the UK thanks to a Sharia-compliant government which willingly accepts it. It is moving in to the USA thanks to Obama and the democrat party, with little opposition from Trump.

  28. DiMu says

    Jul 24, 2017 at 11:11 am

    Pipe Churchill’s words about Islam followed by Christian hymns into his cell 24/7. And leave a bit of rope lying around. With any lucky he’ll send himself off to be with the 72 virgins and save us the trouble.

  30. Voytek Gagalka says

    Jul 24, 2017 at 5:31 pm

    They (the authorities) think that they can somehow control “extremists” and decide who is and who is not representing “mainstream” Islam by branding anyone as an extremist who does not represent “true” Islam. In other words, they appointed themselves as religious arbiters in matters anything Islamic, perhaps on the level of Al-Azhar (if not higher). So, now the time came for Mr. Choudary. They think that if they just merely brand him as an extremist they can “contain” and discredit him and thus reduce his influence over masses. They forget that no Muslim will aver listen to any kuffar in determining who is and who is not representing Islam.

  31. Buford says
