What could possibly go wrong? While this is going on, a prominent “think tank” has advised the British government that what it needs to do is work harder to silence all foes of jihad violence and Sharia oppression. Yeah, that’ll fix this problem right up. Britain is, of course, finished. “FREE TO WAGE WAR: Faces […]
UK: London Bridge jihad murderer got $457,000 in legal aid
Of course! Not to forked over the cash to Usman Khan would have been “Islamophobic”! How much did Tommy Robinson get? “London Bridge terrorist Usman Khan who killed Jack Merritt and Saskia Jones ‘gets £350,000 legal aid,’” by Tiffany Lo and James Rodger, Birmingham Live, January 5, 2020: A terrorist responsible for an attack on […]
UK: Psychologist behind “deradicalization” scheme says there’s no guarantee jihadis can ever be “cured”
No kidding, really? I’ve been pointing out for years that deradicalization programs are an abysmal failure everywhere they have been implemented. From the Jihad Watch archives: UK: London jihadi stabbed man at deradicalization event, victim’s father hopes killing won’t be used as a “pretext” Gitmo prisoner reveals: Saudi “deradicalization program” is really a jihad training […]
UK: Families living on same street as convicted jihad terrorist slam cops, say “No one told us”
Of course they weren’t told. To have told them would have been “Islamophobic.” “Families living on same street as convicted terrorist slam police ‘No one told us,’” by Simon Osborne, Express, December 6, 2019: FURIOUS families living alongside an al-Qaeda recruit are demanding answers about how a convicted terrorist was allowed to live on their […]
Pakistan: Paper says London Bridge jihadi is of “Pakistani origin,” enraged Muslim mob tries to storm its offices
Never mind that it’s true. In Islamic law, it is considered a good thing to conceal the faults of a fellow Muslim, as Muhammad said: “The servant (who conceals) the faults of others in this world, Allah would conceal his faults on the Day of Resurrection” (Sahih Muslim 32.6267). The ordinary understanding of slander in […]
UK: Family of London Bridge jihad murderer say they’re “shocked” by his jihad massacre
“Khan’s family said in a statement yesterday: ‘We are shocked by what Usman has done.’” Really? But Usman Khan was a convicted jihad terrorist who had plotted to blow up the London Stock Exchange. And they’re shocked that he turned to jihad terrorism again? Or is this more of Muhammad’s famous adage, “War is deceit”? […]
UK: Jihad preacher Anjem Choudary’s license under urgent review as photo surfaces of him with London Bridge jihadi
When Anjem Choudary was released from prison some time ago, British authorities gave the public all sorts of assurances about how he would be closely monitored. This was never going to happen in real life, but it sounded good, and kept the masses calm. Now, however, that it has become clear that he was a […]
UK: London Bridge jihad murderer was “beyond rehabilitation,” with views that were “deep and stubborn”
Gee, where could Usman Khan have picked up “deep and stubborn” views? British authorities will never, ever figure it out, but here’s a hint: “And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from where they drove you out; persecution is worse than slaughter. But fight them not by the Holy Mosque until […]
Nothing to Worry About: London Bridge Jihadi Was Safely ‘Deradicalized’
My latest in PJ Media: London Bridge jihad murderer Usman Khan was at an event sponsored by Cambridge University Friday, a prisoner rehabilitation conference, when he suddenly decided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the “deradicalization” process: Khan stabbed Jack Merritt, 25, to death at what the Daily Mail called a “prisoner rehabilitation conference that paired […]
London Bridge jihadi’s solicitor says “deradicalization” help he got “not enough,” needed “jihadist ideology expert”
“His solicitor, Vajahat Sharif, has told the BBC that Khan repeatedly asked him for help in finding someone. Mr Sharif said he wanted a very specific jihadist ideology expert to work with his client because he feared Khan’s hate was so deeply-rooted. So while he may have received some help, his lawyer, for one, thinks […]
UK: Four Muslims who plotted jihad massacre received $1,000,000 in taxpayer-funded legal aid from government
“The four men – who were jointly jailed for a total of 75 years – received nearly £800,000 in legal aid during the case.” How much money did Tommy Robinson receive in legal aid? Right: none. The British government aids and abets jihad mass murderers and would-be mass murderers while hounding and persecuting foes of […]
UK: Friend of London Bridge jihad murderer also freed from prison early, also returned to plotting jihad massacre
Yes, this is insanity on a massive, society-wide scale. But the British government is not totally inept. It has been, in league with the British establishment media, extremely effective in demonizing and marginalizing all opposition to jihad terror. So don’t expect anything to change. “How WERE they freed? Terrorist jailed with London Bridge knifeman Usman […]
Video from UK: London Bridge jihad murderer says “I ain’t no terrorist”
And British authorities believed him. “War is deceit,” said Muhammad (Bukhari 4.52.268).
UK’s Guardian: London Bridge jihadi was reacting to racism, Muslims are the real victims of his massacre
“Elsewhere, court documents reveal that racism may have also played a role in radicalising Khan. They cite how Khan and others discussed bombing pubs in Stoke as a response to ‘racist incidents.’” Of course court documents “reveal” this. What they do not “reveal,” however, is why this is so. In Sunni Islamic law, defensive jihad […]
UK: Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn says jihad terrorists should “not necessarily” serve full sentences in prison
What could possibly go wrong, you racist, bigoted “Islamophobe”? Answer: look at the London Bridge last Friday. “Terrorists should not be forced to serve full sentence in prison, Jeremy Corbyn says,” by Gareth Davies, Telegraph, December 1, 2019: Terrorists should not be forced to serve their full sentences in prison, Jeremy Corbyn has said, after […]
UK: Prime Minister Boris Johnson says releasing London Bridge jihad murderer from prison early was a “mistake”
No kidding, really? But what will be done to make sure this won’t happen again? What procedures will be changed? What realistic new policies regarding the jihad threat will be adopted? Nothing at all will change, of course — unless Jeremy Corbyn becomes Prime Minister, in which case Britain’s response to the jihad terror threat, […]
London’s Mayor Khan on London Bridge jihad massacre: “one of our strengths is our diversity”
“Look, I’m mayor of the greatest city in the world, and one of our strengths is our diversity….The message I want to send… is we are resolute, we stand united in the face of terrorism, and we will not allow anybody to divide us.” In saying these things, Khan is signaling that no discussion of […]
UK: London Bridge jihad murderer belonged to Muslim group that admired Hitler
No surprise here. The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love […]
UK: Schoolmate of London Bridge jihadi says he turned to the Islamic State after being bullied at school
Of course, lots of people are bullied at school without turning to the Islamic State. What, oh what, could be the difference in this case? Could it be that Usman Khan read Islamic texts mandating violence against unbelievers and took them to heart? Nah, that couldn’t be it. Everyone knows that when Muslims turn to […]
Islamic State claims responsibility for London Bridge jihad massacre
There is no reason why this couldn’t be so; the Islamic State has many times called upon Muslims to murder random civilians in Western countries. If they didn’t do this one, they’ll keep trying. “Islamic State claims responsibility for London Bridge attack,” Reuters, November 30, 2019: Islamic State said the London Bridge attack on Friday […]
