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

Islamic State jihadi plotted with Muslims in UK to murder soldiers and cops in London

Apr 13, 2018 4:52 pm By Robert Spencer

In other news, London police are hot on the trail of some notorious Islamophobes…

“British Islamic State ‘Beatle’ Alexanda Kotey suspected of plotting to execute soldiers and police officers in London,” by Rohit Kachroo, ITV News, April 13, 2018:

A member of an ISIS cell known as ‘The Beatles’ is suspected of helping to organise a plot to execute soldiers and police officers in London while he was guarding western hostages 3,000 miles away in Raqqa, ITV News can reveal.

Alexanda Kotey from west London is thought to have been one of four British men who formed the notorious cell which was responsible for beheading western hostages in Syria. He was captured by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) earlier this year, and questioned about his role in the so-called caliphate.

But ITV News has learned that while in Syria, Kotey attempted to help organise a terrorist attack close to the London neighbourhood where he grew up.

The conspiracy to commit drive-by killings from the back of a moped in Shepherd’s Bush was foiled by Scotland Yard detectives, weeks after ‘The Beatles’ beheaded American journalist James Foley in Syria.

Kotey and other ISIS militants in Raqqa are suspected of guiding and funding the would-be attackers in the UK – helping to organise the plot ‘by remote control’.

He was in regular communication with medical student Tarik Hassane, a friend back home in London who was jailed at the Old Bailey in 2016 for his part in the plot. He was the ringleader of the four-man terror cell that had obtained a gun and silencer to carry out the plot to kill police officers, soldiers and civilians….

    ………………………………

    The terrible thing is that I am not even shocked by headlines like this anymore, they are so common–just glad when these plots are foiled.

    Meanwhile, the Mayor of London pooh-poohs the thought that Islamic terrorism is a big problem or that knife crime can be reduced, because so many police are looking for people who CRITICIZE ISLAMIC TERRORISM and KNIFE CRIME.

    The political opposition to Sadiq Khan and the British TRAITOR CLASS seems to be the main problem in UK as far as the British socialist ELITES are concerned.

      They’ve definitely got it upside-down and backwards right now over there.

      “…the Mayor of London pooh-poohs the thought that Islamic terrorism is a big problem or that knife crime can be reduced……”

      Why? Because he’s in on it? Which is also why he’s spending so much money trying to eliminate people who criticise his religion, because they’re throwing spanners into his devious works?
