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

More Islamic State jihadis now in UK than Britons in Syria fighting the Islamic State

Feb 4, 2018 8:17 am By Robert Spencer

“The source told the Daily Star Sunday that up to 300 people who have returned from Syria after fighting for Isis are believed to be living in the London borough of Tower Hamlets, using innocent Muslims as cover.”

Why don’t those innocent Muslims turn them in to authorities?

Why were they admitted back into Britain in the first place? They joined an entity that repeatedly reiterated that it was at war with Britain and called upon Muslims to murder British police, soldiers, and civilians. They are enemy combatants. Whose bright idea was it to let them back into Britain to run around loose? Why, Theresa May’s, of course. She is much more concerned with keeping foes of jihad out of Britain than protecting her people from Islamic State jihadis. If she had kept these jihadis from returning, her Muslim constituency might have been offended.

“Welcome to JIHAD BRITAIN: More Islamic State nuts here than Brits fighting ISIS,” by Patrick Williams, Daily Star, February 4, 2018:

Senior MI5 spies fear hardened fighters have returned to the UK intent on recruiting more fanatics to carry out attacks on our shores.

Intelligence chiefs believe hundreds of Brits have returned to the UK and are now living in areas with the highest concentrations of Muslims.

The source told the Daily Star Sunday that up to 300 people who have returned from Syria after fighting for Isis are believed to be living in the London borough of Tower Hamlets, using innocent Muslims as cover.

He added that hundreds more are living in Birmingham, Leicester and Luton.

The source added: “The best place to hide a tree is in a forest – and this is what those who have fought for Isis are doing. They have basically relocated their HQ from Syria to the UK. The fear is they will begin recruiting and will wage terror on British soil.

“Those returning include both men and women, mainly under the age of 25, who are skilled in guerrilla warfare and bomb-making. The threat is very real.”

Tower Hamlets has more than 40 mosques and Muslims outnumber Christians in the London borough.

Islamic State-style flags have flown in parts of the borough which was also home to three British schoolgirls who left the UK to join Isis in February 2015.

The threat from Islamist terrorism in the UK has never been so great and the police and MI5 are foiling attacks almost monthly.

Intelligence chiefs believe it is just a matter of time before Britain faces another major atrocity….

Yes, and it’s thanks to Theresa May.

    One glaring explanation for the returning jihadis issue is that the European countries or their allies are the ones who have been financing ISIS. Therefore if the jihadis are tried too much information about the role of Europe and America in funding ISIS will come out. We are seeing that right now with the use of American supplied MANPAD that was used to shot down a Russian fighter plane in Syria a few days ago.

    ‘Intelligence chiefs believe hundreds of Brits have returned to the UK…’

    Sorry, ‘chiefs’, but if they have been fighting for ISIS they are not ‘Brits’. They are traitors, and should be dealt with as such.

      • StellaSaidSo says

        Being a ‘Brit’ is more than being born in Britain. It is being loyal to Britain. It is identifying with British culture and values. Ask the real ‘Brits’ if jihadis are ‘Brits’, and see what they say.

        They are Fifth Columnists. As are the so-called “peaceful” ones, who are in truth not peaceful at all but passive, which is not the same. It is like claiming that an Africanised Killer Bee colony is perfectly safe to put in the school playground as most of the bees in it are nurses and housekeepers. Or that a tiger will never harm your child as most of it consists of fluffy fur.

        Islam is neither a religion nor a cult, but a collective organism like an insect colony. Every Muslim is brainwashed from birth to serve the needs of the colony with a blind fervour that normal folk simply cannot grasp. The loyalty of even the most passive and apparently inoffensive Muslim is solely to Islam, not their family, friends, neighbours or countrymen. That is why they are prone to such violence and hatred towards even their own children if those are perceived to be less than sufficiently Islamic.

        When I first took up beekeeping I was taught to see “the colony as the creature”, the individual bees having no sense of self at all. Islam is exactly the same. The only way to deal with a vicious bee colony is to kill the queen (who is producing them all) and replace her with a gentler one. The same applies to Muslims – it is Islam that must be destroyed; killing individual Muslims is as much use as plucking hairs from a tiger while it is eating you.

        The other way to deal with a vicious bee colony is to pour half a pint of petrol in the hive and block the entrance. Some might argue that that is essentially what the Arab despots in the Middle East were doing before the foolish West overthrew them to “free” the crazed Muslims.

          Excellent points, thesailor, especially the vital distinction between ‘peaceful’ and ‘passive’.

          Feb 5, 2018 at 3:49 pm

          How do you propose to “destroy Islam”? And how could we possibly accomplish that before Islam destroys us, or our societies?

          Muslims aren’t going to stand idly by while we attempt to “destroy” their religion — even if our attempts are almost totally ineffective, as I believe they would be. All we would accomplish is to turn more “moderate”, peaceful Muslims into violent jihadis.

          If Western civilization is to survive, we’ve got to eliminate Islam IN THE WEST. That is do-able. But the only way to accomplish it is to eject all Muslims from the West. That will be a big, difficult, messy project — but it really is the only effective & permanent solution, so we need to focus our energies on making that happen.

          Muslims will not be talked out of their religion fast enough to save us. And Islam cannot be legislated out of existence fast enough to prevent the Islamization of the West.

          After years of studying this problem, I’m convinced that the only way we can destroy the Muslim “colonies” in the Western world is by focusing on the individuals that keep Islam alive & growing in our countries, and sending them back to the Muslim world — no matter what it takes.

      • Savvy Kafir says

        Feb 5, 2018 at 2:24 pm

        But they are enemy combatants who wage war on the citizens of the nations that took them in and offered them a better life.

        To my mind, that’s just as deserving of capital punishment, or a military-style execution, as the actions of any traitor.

    Whose bright idea was it to let them back into Britain to run around loose? Why, Theresa May’s, of course. She is much more concerned with keeping foes of jihad out of Britain than protecting her people from Islamic State jihadis. If she had kept these jihadis from returning, her LIBERAL ILLUMINATI DEEP STATE COLLUSION might have been offended. George Soros would have been deeply offended about the lack of progress towards A New World Order.
    The Muslim immigrants are a means to an end, not the end itself.

    • StellaSaidSo says

      Feb 4, 2018 at 9:40 am

      You are right, Indiana Tom. The Muslim hordes are a weapon employed by the globalists in order to facilitate the imposition of their diabolical ‘New World Order’. Theresa May is a globalist asset, doing the bidding of her puppet meisters. The only good thing that can be said of her is that Jeremy Corbyn would be worse.

    • sally says

      Feb 5, 2018 at 8:37 am

      The real traitor here is Theresa May and it is she who shoul be tried. These jihadis are just following orders – the Qu’ran’s orders. Sure, they sbould be shot but not before you try, convict and execute May and her government lackeys. She seems to be confused as to whom she is supposed to serve.

    Britain deserves to reap what they have sown!

    • StellaSaidSo says

      Feb 4, 2018 at 10:21 am

      What exactly do you mean, Jaladhi? That the victims of the Pakistani rape gangs ‘deserved’ to suffer? That the children blown up in Manchester ‘deserved’ to be murdered and maimed? The British people did not choose to be invaded by hordes of savages. They were betrayed by their leaders, and by the bureaucrats in Brussels who make most of Britain’s decisions – decisions not made in the interests of the British people, but in the interests of advancing the globalist agenda. Nearly all Western countries are heading down the same path as the UK, and if we don’t take decisive action, we could end up in the same trouble. Will we be so quick to blame ourselves for our fate as we blame others for theirs?

      • Jaladhi says

        Feb 4, 2018 at 11:59 am

        Please don’t go on putting viscous words that I don’t mean in my post! I only mean what ever is happening in Britain is the result of the policy that British government has followed and is still following it. The British government has a love affair with Muslims and that is why they(govt. leaders) do what they have done. The citizens, it seems have no say in what the leaders are doing.

        On top of it the major political parties in Britain follow the same policy when it comes to crimes of Muslims and attributing it “south asians” which includes law abiding Indians, Chinese and people from other Asian countries. Why is it so difficult for the political leaders, police, press, and others to call spade a spade and call the crimes done by Muslims as done by Muslims and not done by South Asians?

        Ah, you mention the victims of Muslim rape gang – please tell me how were Muslim perpetrators treated by the police judicial system for years – with a knock on the wrist or were sent to jail to rot for life? Did the police specifically go out to put an end to this crisis or were they treating them with kid gloves?

        And now the Govt. have allowed these Muslim jihadis of ISIS to come back to Britain and the Govt. have no clue what they are going to do in Britain?

        And you say or imply I mean the suffering victims of Muslim crime deserve to suffer which is 180 degrees opposite to what I mean. Will the British citizens rise and throw out all these traitors in the government after seeing effects of the policies followed for last 6- to 70 years if not more?

          Read my post again, Jaladhi. I did not ‘go putting’ words, ‘viscous’ or otherwise; I asked questions, in order to clarify what you meant.

          You said ‘Britain deserves to reap what they have sown’. Such a blanket statement clearly implies ALL of the British people.

          It appears from your response to my questions that this is not, in fact, what you meant at all, and that – like me – you hold the politicians, not the British people responsible. I am relieved to hear this..
