It was a mistake, they say now — a mistake that no one caught for 25 hours.
As Muhammad said, “War is deceit.”
“Muslim FM radio station broadcast 25 hours of Al Qaeda speeches calling for a holy war ‘by mistake,'” by Chris Brooke, Daily Mail, July 8, 2017:
A Muslim radio station broadcast lectures by an Al Qaeda terror leader calling for holy war.
Iman FM transmitted 25 hours of sermons from Anwar Al-Awlaki, a hate preacher killed by a US drone strike in 2011.
A complaint was made to Ofcom, which has suspended the Sheffield-based station’s licence.
The watchdog said the material ‘amounted to a direct call to action to members of the Muslim community to prepare for and carry out violent action against non-Muslim people’.
Bosses at Iman FM have 21 days to explain themselves or be closed down. They found the extremist lectures on YouTube and broadcast them during Ramadan.
Ofcom said Al-Awlaki, who was an American Muslim cleric of Yemeni descent, was an Al Qaeda leader, recruiter and trainer.
He is said to have inspired the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris, an attempt to blow up an American airliner and the massacre of 13 people at Fort Hood in Texas.
The lectures were broadcast in English on June 14. In one, Al-Awlaki said: ‘Prepare whatever strength you have for holy war in the cause of Allah. This is a form of worship.’
Under broadcasting rules hate speech must not be included in TV or radio programmes except where justified by context.
Iman FM claimed to be unaware of the preacher’s background and said not all the material was checked before being aired.
The Ofcom ruling described this defence as ‘not credible’….
No kidding, really?

The molsums in U.K., terrorists and their funders, supporters, advocates, apologists,…all…thought they could get away with it. They’ve gotten away with a whole lot…rapes, hate speech, terror…what’s one more “mistake”?
mortimer says
What? A “Muslim FM radio station broadcast 25 hours of Al Qaeda speeches calling for a holy war”? Speeches by JIHAD PREACHER Anwar Awlaki ??
How did a SOPHISTICATED, LITERATE RADIO STATION STAFF MISUNDERSTAND THAT ISLAM MANDATES AGGRESSIVE WARFARE AGAINST THE DIRTY DISBELIEVING KUFAAR???
The owners and operators of the MUSLIM radio station must NOT UNDERSTAND Islam !! They must be ISLAMOPHOBES !!!
(sarc/off)
How much longer will it take for LIBTARDS to figure out their is a connexion between the JIHAD DOCTRINE and ISLAM???
Caesar11 says
indeed.
mortimer says
Oh…I’m sorry…they were ‘unaware’ of the content of ANWAR AWLAKI’s SERMONS ! (Yeah, sure!)
But… is OFCOM ‘aware’ that VERBAL JIHAD means to use the tongue to conceal, hide and disinform concerning the MEANING, MOTIVE and METHODS of jihad???
One of the METHODS of JIHAD is LYING ABOUT JIHAD.
OFCOM must have realized some used VERBAL JIHAD and LIED to them. MUSLIM JIHADISTS LIED to them.

Our so called ‘leaders’ no nothing about this religion.They just cannot grasp that a ‘religion of peace’can be so subversive or indeed call for the death of unbelievers.They oh so want it not to be true!
roger woodhouse says
‘Know’
Hindu American says
Our leaders only “know” what they are “told” about this cult by the cultists themselves. In trying to be seen as “politically correct”, our so called leaders would not want it any other way.
BC says
You can be sure that if a British ie. kaffur news agency had broadcast anti Muslim rhetoric they would now be in custody or on remand awaiting trial. And were the ‘peace loving’ Muslims up in arms about this mis interpreting of their faith. Not on your life, they were no doubt lapping it up.
Caesar11 says
to lie about Jihad or Islam is called “Taqqiya” . meaning it is approved to lie about.

UK: Muslim radio station broadcast 25 hours of al-Qaeda speeches calling for jihad
………………….
Gee–doesn’t everyone make mistakes like this all the time?
About a month ago, my local radio news station ran the same segment–about an event in the Wine Country–twice in a row. Similar kind of error, right? sarc/off
Islam the religion of killers says
Is the radio station being shut down for broadcasting Hate Speech ???
How much anti Jihad rhetoric would go out on the air before the calvary arrived to shut the station down …
Westman says
Well, perhaps much of it was in Arabic, you know, the language that conveys Islam, “correctly”. Like Holy War really means “the spiritual struggle within oneself”.
Islam the religion of killers says
Why does “the spiritual struggle within oneself” have to cause the deaths of so many outsiders.
Perhaps they should make smaller bombs and move away from innocents …

i have just messed my table cloth with tea.. Maybe I shouldn’t be reading these comments while taking my morning tea.
Andy says
Why don’t we give all the jihadi’s broadcasts 24/7 365 day’s a year of Winston Churchill speeches and read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation to all the muzzies..
Andy says
I saw this one-line and wanted to share with the JW crowd:

Does Linda Sarsour listen in?
Lydia says
Oh, so that is not a ‘cupid’s arrow’ of love he is aiming at us???
What a shock!
What could it be?
Maybe we should ask ‘Linda,’ pretell; do you think she would know?
(sarcasm!)

Arthur says
Probably just dipping their toes into the water to see if Shari’a Law is fully in force in the UK. If there are no real consequences to this action, then they answer is yes.
25 hours before a single tipster calls in the hate speech! Where are all the ‘moderate’ Muslim listeners?
Jayell says
Two things strike me.
1. If thousands of Nazis had got into the UK around 1939 aiming at a takeover, this is precisely what they would have done, but under cover. These particular ‘nazis’ didn”t concern themselves with any subterfuge, they just brazenly broke the (kuffar’s) rules and then tried to palm the kuffar (Quisling?) authorities off with any old rubbish excuse because they’ve convinced themselves that they’ve already managed to take the place over.
2. The get-out excuses from the Muslims always amaze me, like the whinings and whinges of the cheap petty criminal or the obnoxious spoilt bully-brat in the school playground when he’s caught with his pants down – “It’s so unfair”,:You don’t understand”, “I didn’t mean it”, “I made a mistake”, “It wasn’t me, really!!”, “It’s all your/his/her/their/anyone else’s fault”, “You’re picking on me because you don’t like me”….etc., etc., ad nauseam. Didn’t Hitler try the same thing on in ‘Mein Kampf’?
R Russell says
Sharia is alive and well in the UK and being implemented by our government whether knowingly or in ignorance.
Civil war is just around the corner unless the church wakes up and fights this battle where Islam is fighting it – in the spiritual realm.
DDMisra says
Not civil war, Muslim take over is just around the corner.
roger woodhouse says
Over your dead body!
Stephen Goldspink says
Funny how hanging a piece of bacon on a mosque door gets you arrested in the UK, but broadcasting a call to Jihad for 25 hours solid does not attract any police action at all.

Yes…
Hindu American says
The Silent Invasion – 4 Muslims In A Rowboat
A Royal Navy vessel was patrolling the coast of Britain looking for people smugglers, and spotted 4 Muslim men in a small boat.
The Captain gets on the loudspeaker and shouts, “Ahoy, small craft !!! Where are you headed?”
One of the Muslims puts down his oar, stands up and shouts, “We are invading Britain”
The entire crew on the destroyer doubles over in laughter.
When the Captain finally catches his breath, he gets back on the loudspeaker and asks, “Just the four of you?”
The same Muslim stands up again and shouts, “No, we’re the last four. The other four million are already there”.
Nobody on the destroyer laughed.
Steven says
One of the biggest excuses made by the muslims………….. shut this terror radio down!
Steven says
Does it mean this muslim radio station didn’t aware that their so-called prophet mo-ham-mad is rapist, murderer, war-lord and paedophile???
Valkyrie Ziege says
; I thought ”Rap” was boring, wow, this broadcast upped that ante.
Tom says
Mistake or not the potential damage that such broadcasting can do warrants immediate closure of the station and fines levied to the owner/operators. If it is found to be deliberste then criminal charges are also warranted and must be initiated.
Yokel says
The only mistake they made was getting caught.
Yokel says
Everything else was a deliberate.
gravenimage says
Exactly, Yokel.
