No effort was made when this family entered Britain to determine what it thought about jihad, Sharia, and the like. That would have been “Islamophobic.” But avoiding charges of “Islamophobia” comes at an increasingly steep price.
“Is this Britain’s most dangerous family? Two brothers who fought for Isis in Syria. Another jailed for life here. One more brother, a sister (and her husband) put in UK prisons for spreading hate — and the list goes on,” by Tom Rawstorne, Daily Mail, April 22, 2021 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Four years ago and in the run‑up to Remembrance Day three young men headed to a high street in an East London suburb to put up some posters.
The design featured a red poppy — but this was no patriotic gesture. Closer inspection revealed images of a skull and Union Flag in the centre of the flower, alongside which were the silhouettes of five black warplanes.
‘British terror: lest we forget,’ read the accompanying slogan. ‘Britain uses your tax money to kill Muslims in Muslim lands. Don’t betray your ummah [community] — do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies.’
The message could not have been clearer — ‘them’ against ‘us’. That such a sentiment could have been expressed so brazenly in 21st‑century Britain will shock many.
But what is even more shocking is how such views had come to infect a whole family, with consequences not just for them but for wider society.
Because the three fly-posting on that day were all related: brothers Sahayb and Muhamed Abu, and their half-brother Ahmed Aweys.
While not charged with any offence over the poster, all would subsequently go on to find themselves in the dock for terror offences.
Last week, 28-year-old Sahayb was jailed for life for plotting an Islamic State-inspired attack.
His brother Muhamed, 32, stood trial alongside him but was cleared of failing to warn police about the plot.
As for Ahmed Aweys (although he has a different surname he shares a father with the Abu brothers), he was jailed in 2019 for 25 months for sharing vile Isis videos and radical material that proclaimed: ‘We are the enemy within.’
His sister Asma and her husband were also sent to prison for related offences at the same time. And the roll-call of family infamy (in total there are 17 children) does not stop there.
Five siblings — plus a brother-in-law — have been linked to Isis with three more siblings whose behaviour is, to say the least, highly questionable.
In 2015, two brothers went to Syria to fight for Islamic State. They have not been heard of since. One is believed to have died in an airstrike and another killed by a bullet to the head.
Clearly undeterred by their fate, another sister was recently stopped trying to leave the country to travel to Morocco with a number of the family’s children while using someone else’s passport…..
What we do know is that the story begins in the early 1990s with the arrival in the UK of Aweys Abu Munye from Somalia. Now aged 66, how he came to set up home in East London is unclear.
But at the time refugees fleeing the Somali civil war headed to Europe, with Britain becoming the favourite place to seek asylum.
His three-month-old son Sahayb was with him, as were a number of his other children. And, it was claimed, not one but two wives….

The whole damned ilk…

Did the custom and immigration authorities realize that one out of six Muslims approve of JIHADIC TERRORISM?
If they don’t know that, they should not be interviewing Muslims applying for residency. Such interviewers will be too easy to dupe.
With all the modern police interviewing techniques available, it is inexcusable that immigration officials still cannot identify jihadists.
Michael Copeland says
To Tom Rawstorne of the Daily Mail “‘them’ against ‘us’ comes as a “shock” to many.
Learning Curve needed.
“Us versus them”, said Tariq Ramadan.

UK: Muslim migrant family has two brothers who fought for ISIS, four other jailed jihadis
…………………
Why wasn’t this family vetted? Would that have been “Islamophobic”?
Kathleen Walsh says
How many more live amongst us.? We are being overtaken by these so called asylum seekers. The only ones fooled are the government.
They just let them in and believe the lies that they spin.
I can see a civil war happening soon in the UK and France.
It’s just a question of time.
Andrew Blackadder says
A family that kills together stays together.
I often wonder why muslims “fleeing” various islamic Nations always feel the need to move to NON islamic Nations for safety and yet they still dont see that contradiction in terms.
Then of course, once they get into these non islamic Nations they wish to turn it into something that looks like the shithole they left, and yet again, they dont see the contradiction in that either.
Plus the morons that fall over themselves defending such people, even when such people say they OPENLY they hate us, and want us all dead, unless we join their Cult,also cant seem to see that contradiction either.
We now live in a clown world,where Up is Down, and Im certainly glad I will not be on this Planet much longer.
We are expected to give shelter, food, special needs, to a people that despise us, and wish to destroy us, in our own countries.
My Fathers generation that fought in WW2 must really be rolling over in their graves.
James Lincoln says
Andrew,
My father was an Army medic during World War II, who later became a physician under the G.I. Bill. Truly representative of the “Greatest Generation”.
He passed away in 2003, and I miss him dearly.
The only “silver lining” is that he did not have to witness what has already happened in Western Europe – and is now happening in the United States – with the Red-Green alliance aided and abetted by the horrific and illegitimate Harris/Biden duo…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKL9b5-DL4A This is a spoof of course but there is a serious side to look at. Is this the horrible fate that awaits the West; but with the RAF dropping bombs on suburban locations in cities across the UK instead? Nah, that won’t ever happen.
