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

UK: Muslim supermarket security guard joins the Islamic State, blows himself up in Syria

Aug 19, 2019 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

When Omar Hussein was hired at Morrisons, was he questioned as to his views regarding jihad violence? Of course not. That would have been “Islamophobic.” But what if a Muslim had shown up at the Morrisons where Omar Hussein worked who shared his views on Britain? Hussein said: “I hate the UK, the only reason why I would intend to return to the UK is when I want to come and plant a bomb somewhere.” If such a man had shown up at Morrisons with a bomb, would Hussein have stopped him from killing Infidels?

“ISIS BRIT’S ‘SUICIDE’ British jihadi who worked as Morrisons security guard ‘kills himself in ISIS suicide bombing in Syria,’” by Neal Baker, The Sun, August 18, 2019 (thanks to the Geller Report):

A BRITISH jihadi who worked as a Morrisons security guard before joining ISIS is believed to have killed himself in a suicide attack in Syria, it was revealed last night.

Omar Hussein – dubbed the Supermarket Jihadi – volunteered for the “martyrdom operation” in the Islamists’ besieged capital Raqqa, it’s understood.

He blew himself up as Western-backed Kurdish forces drove the terrorists out of the city in northern Syria, security sources told The Mail On Sunday.

Hussein fled the UK in 2013 to become one of the most high-profile British ISIS jihadis in Syria under the name Abu Saeed Al-Britani.

He had previously worked as a security guard at his local Morrisons supermarket in High Wycombe, Bucks.

His escape to Syria via Turkey was seen as a major blunder by British intelligence who had already flagged him as an extremist.

He had also been stopped from travelling to Syria just six months earlier.

Once in Syria, Hussain [sic], who would now be 32, became a prolific social media user as he attempted to groom and recruit ISIS followers.

He also ran a series of blogs in which he often complained about life in Syria – including how he missed his mum’s cooking, fish and chips and Jaffa Cakes.

Hussain [sic] also called for and praised terror attacks in the UK – as well as encouraging ISIS supporters to rob non-Muslims to fund the terror group.

He gained notoriety after giving an interview to the BBC in 2014 in which he told of his hatred for Britain.

He said: “I hate the UK, the only reason why I would intend to return to the UK is when I want to come and plant a bomb somewhere.”

In that interview he also admitted to carrying out beheadings in Syria and displaying severed heads as warnings.

Hussain [sic], who was one of only four British jihadis in Syria to be placed on a UN sanctions list, also called then-Prime Minister David Cameron a “despicable swine”….

Well, at least he got one thing right.

    He said: “I hate the UK, the only reason why I would intend to return to the UK is when I want to come and plant a bomb somewhere.”

    And yet, I have the feeling the UK would allow him to return…

    Wow! doesn’t that make Britons feel safe? Another jihadist to provide SAFETY for shoppers, only he actually couldn’t have cared less about the dirty kafirs, because he HATED kafirs ‘for the sake of Allah’.

      So sorrowful about the victims of these selfish BLASTARDS !

      Suicide by cop also is a horrid psychological way to go out,
      as it leaves the police with brokenness from the residue.

    I guess he’s in the arms of his allah now

    allah,the god with TWO RIGHT HANDS {sahih muslim 1827}

    allah,”the BEST of deceivers” k3:54:no doubt he is realizing that now as he stands before the one who will judge him: a Jew{something muslims don’t get}

    He chose the way of the sword:”He who lives by the sword.dies by the sword”Matthew 26:52
    A shame he didn’t follow allah’s unwitting advice in k10:94 to consult those who know the.. Bible.
    For even allah says the Gospel contains “A guidance and alight” k5:46

    Still,he has an eternity of delicious Raisins to enjoy with LAH the “BEST of deceivers”.

      No FYI….He’s in the arms of Satan, as are all Muslims who reject Jesus as the Messiah and continue to commit suicide as well as killing others…God put us on earth for one purpose….To save ourselves and others from that awful Lake of Fire.

    At least he didn’t blow himself up at his supermarket.

    It’s really very sad that there are so many like him — as if they have nothing better to do with their lives. If I had the power I’d be all over the inhumane morons who lead (from behind, of course) their followers into such darkness.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 19, 2019 at 6:36 pm

      Agreed–we should be looking at the Mosques and the Imams.

        You bet !!

        But nobody can do this because it would be Islamophobic.

        So Britain’s hands are now tied behind her back, waiting for the blows.

    Why am I not at all surprised.

    “I hate the UK, the only reason why I would intend to return to the UK is when I want to come and plant a bomb somewhere.”

    Well. a large proportion -if not most – of 90+% of the UK hates the likes of this character and can’t understand what they’re doing here in the first place (they don’t understand ‘jihad’). If he’s blown himself up – oh dear, we are SO sad!

    Many, if not most, of the supermarket ‘security’ guys in British stores are muslims. I wonder why that is?

    • gravenimage says

      Deeply disturbing.

    How could you spot a real jihadist? You probably couldn’t in most cases, especially if the jihadist is skillfully concealing his intent.

    Muslims with big beards wearing cammo outfits may or may not be serious about jihad. But I would guess they are wannabes. Real jihadists know the value of concealment and misdirection, principles employed by Mohammed, their role model.

    UK has now finally led the way for other Commonwealth countries by expelling jihadis with dual passports. We look forward to see more Muslim radicals stripped of passports by Western countries. This is what most Muslims fear the most even more than they fear Allah.

    Hussein is now out of his misery, having murdered himself and others. He might easily have perpetrated a similar massacre in Britain. The British were lucky this time. If there are truly over 20,000 wannbe jihadists in UK (as British intelligence believes) then the British had better start deprogramming Muslims and start ENCOURAGING this deprogramming, rather than calling it ‘Islamophobia’. Persuading Muslim to leave Islam is the kindest and most beneficial thing we can do for them.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 20, 2019 at 5:41 pm

      Certainly, quite a few Muslims dressing the part are also the real thing.

    ”Hussain … was one of only four British jihadis in Syria on a UN sanctions list”
    Just four British jihadis in all of occupied Syria and Iraq? Did you forget 3 or 4 zeroes, UN? Paying your statistician 200,000 US per year? Obviously that’s not enough.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 20, 2019 at 5:42 pm

      Yes–this is ludicrously downplaying the problem.

  25. Walter Sieruk says

    Aug 20, 2019 at 4:14 pm

    This is, somewhat, of a reminder that the Bible informs its reader in Proverbs 11:27. “If a man pursues evil it turns upon him.” [N.E.B.]
