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

UK: National Crime Agency concludes that “organized crime” is a greater threat than jihad terror

Nov 3, 2018 8:30 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Once again we see thoughtless comparisons that undermine the response to the threat of jihad terror.

Organized crime has been and will continue to be a problem that plagues the UK and other societies, but it is not a a threat to subvert and destroy free societies around the world.

No matter how much documentation there is of the jihad threat, there is still a lack of understanding and a prevailing disbelief about the jihad agenda to dominate using every available means: “lone-wolf” jihad attacks, jihad groups, jihad by immigration and population increase, and stealth jihad.

The UK has caved to Sharia principles and betrayed innocent people in its cover-up of Muslim rape gangs who believe it is their right to take infidel sex slaves. The UK is more concerned about political correctness in offensive speech than about jihad attacks and Islamic supremacist abuse and bullying, so the National Crime Agency’s conclusion is merely in sync with the overall policy of the British government.

“Organised crime threat greater than terrorism – National Crime Agency,” BBC News, November 1, 2018:

The threat posed by organised crime in the UK is now greater than terrorism, the National Crime Agency has said.

Its latest report said there were 4,600 serious and organised crime groups, committing offences including child abuse, trafficking and drug dealing.

Director general Lynne Owens said that crime cost the economy £37bn a year.

Security Minister Ben Wallace said he wanted to target groups – such as accountants and estate agents – who launder money for the criminals.

He told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that those at the “bottom of the pyramid”, who were dealing drugs or laundering money for crime bosses – who he referred to as “foot soldiers” of organised crime – needed to face “the same weight of the law” as those at the top.

The government, which has published a report into organised crime, will later announce a new strategy and £48m of public money to tackle the gangs.

The last figure, published five years ago, showed the cost of such crimes was £24bn.

Ms Owens said some of the cost was direct, such as the impact of blackmail on business, but others were indirect, including the impact on the mental health of victims.

She described the range of serious crimes that had changed rapidly in volume and complexity over the last five years.

“It means children being abused, the vulnerable being trafficked, it means cyber crime,” she said.

“It means criminal markets that trade drugs, trade firearms, trade in people and make profit as a result.”

She added: “Each year it kills more of our citizens than terrorism, war and natural disasters combined.”

    Maybe because much of the “organised crime” now eminates from the so called
    Asian group.Just see any prison statistics?

      You’re absolutely right. It’s my understanding a lot of European gang crime originates in crime families from the Middle East. As usual, the European authorities look the other way, and spend resources fighting “hate” (a biological response to the reality of violence and threats of violence).

        It depends how you define JIHAD TERRORISM.

        Muslim criminals DEFINE THEIR CRIMINALITY AS ‘JIHAD’.

        Muslim criminals are proud of hurting the kafirs. They feel no guilt.

        Their criminality undermines KUFR and the KAFIRS in their minds.

          ‘Wilful ignorance’ is probably the best way to sum this gross misjudgement. They won’t accept that all the so-called ‘asian crime’ is islam-related and motivated by the urge to wage jihad and ‘strike terror’ into the kuffar.

          Islam is highly organized crime. From tribal gangs to ‘religion’ the warlords are the same, the loyalty or death oaths, recruitment, the ‘see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil about the acts of members to the outside or be labeled apostate. They have their symbols, hand signs, traffic rings, hit men, smuggling and money collections. Islam is a very organized Crime family and should be dealt with the same as Mafia, crips, bloods, MS13. I wonder if one of these gangs said ..A deity TOLD us to live this way’ US would legitimize them.

    Organized crime is a greater threat than islamic jihad you say? Okay then, let’s play by your rules. What would you call systemic rape of thousands underage white girls by muslim rape gangs for decades? Those gangs didn’t just pop up over night and for them to survive for this long, growing ever stronger by the day, is not something that can be achieved without support from the top. So we have large groups of people aided by people in power to perform an illegal activity. How is that called again?

    And to make the irony even greater, isn’t systemic rape of infidel girls a form of islamic jihad? The denial of reality from these rabid leftists is reaching new heights every day…

    Aren’t muslims an organized criminal enterprise? They abuse & traffic young girls. That is criminal, so that would be jihad by crime.

      Totally agree…would go so far to say that ISLAM is a de facto criminal enterprise expanding its fascistic control by invading territory by force, murder, intimidation and political control. That’s how Muhammad started his whole “religious gig” after Medina…attacking and looting, cutting off heads and taking sex slaves. Mosques are the “command and control” centers for this criminal political enterprise. The West is doomed because it’s unable to differentiate “Good” from “Evil” just because the ideology is given the misnomer of “religion.”

    There are so few policemen in the UK now that they are having to prioritise what they consider to be more serious threats.
    If they don’t sort things out I fear in a few years time there will be civil unrest/war.

    ………………..

    This just in; shoplifting by depressed teenage girls now a greater threat than Jihad terrorism.

    Shoplifting is now determined to be a greater threat to drugstore cosmetics aisles than is Jihad terror…
