Yes. But what if he is a Muhammedan and a committed jihadist?

Your good doctor is on the way

More doctors held in Britain

* The moonbats from the MSM are at a loss as to how doctors can be involved in jihad. But didn’t the Nazi’s also have doctors, lawyers and judges among them who supported their ideology?

* The Doctors’ Jihad Plot continues to widen. Several people have asked me, How can doctors who swear to do no harm get involved in a mass murder plot? The answer, of course, is that a jihadist will not consider himself bound by an infidel oath taken before an infidel authority, and sees his loyalty to the Islamic umma as paramount, and allowing for the justification of virtually any act.

The educational achievements of the suspects in the car-bomb attempts is in sharp contrast to the men that carried out the deadly July 7 transit bombings two years ago.

The ringleader of that attack, Mohammed Siddique Khan, had a degree in business studies, but with low marks, and his three fellow suicide bombers had little or no higher education.

In the current case, Muhammad Haneef, a 27-year-old doctor from India arrested late Monday in Brisbane, Australia, worked in 2005 at Halton Hospital near Liverpool in northern England, hospital spokesman Mark Shone said.

Another Indian doctor, 26, arrested late Saturday in Liverpool, worked at the same hospital, Mr. Shone confirmed, but refused to divulge his name.

A third suspect, Mohammed Jamil Asha, a 26-year-old doctor from Jordan of Palestinian heritage, was arrested Saturday with his wife, Marwa Asha, 27, who was identified in British press reports as a medical assistant. He worked at North Staffordshire Hospital, near the Midlands town of Newcastle-under-Lyme.

A doctor at Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley, near Glasgow, who refused to give his name, said he recognized Dr. Asha as a doctor who kept an office there — the same hospital where another suspect, Bilal Talal Abdul Samad Abdulla, worked.

According to friends of Dr. Abdulla’s family in Iraq, the 27-year-old doctor came to Britain after graduating from medical school in Baghdad. He was a passenger in the Jeep Cherokee that rammed into the Glasgow Airport.

The Jeep’s driver — identified by staff at Royal Alexandra Hospital as a Lebanese doctor named Khalid Ahmed — was in critical condition at that hospital from burns suffered in the attack. Police would not confirm his identity.

Investigators think the same men who parked the explosives-laden cars in London may have also driven the blazing SUV in Glasgow, the British security official said.

The final two suspects, ages 25 and 28, were arrested by police Sunday at Royal Alexandra Hospital.

Staff said one was a medical student and the other a junior doctor, without giving their names. The British press said they were from Saudi Arabia, but police refused to comment.

Dr. Shiv Pande, former chairman of the British International Doctors Association, said the two Indian nationals in custody were Muslims.

“It is very upsetting news,” Dr. Pande said of their suspected involvement. “It is an abuse of trust and respect — everyone should be able to love their doctor.”

Dr. Azmi Mahafzah, a teacher at the University of Jordan’s medical school, said he knew Dr. Asha during his studies and training there from 1998 to 2004. He said he didn’t think Dr. Asha was religious. “He is not a fanatic type of person,” Dr. Mahafzah said.

* Sure. And his mama said “he would never do a thing like that”

Dr. Asha’s family also denied he was a militant or had links to terrorism, as did the family of Dr. Asha’s wife, Marwa.

* Because the family sez so they must be innocent, right?

“Marwa is a very educated person and she read many British novels to know England better, a country she liked so much,” her father, Yunis Da’na, told the Associated Press in Jordan.

British authorities have refused to release many details on the suspects, including whether they were on any watch lists, but have indicated they think the plot may have links to al Qaeda.

A senior U.S. counterterrorism official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue, said yesterday that none of the eight suspects was on any American lists that identify potential terror suspects.

Great. Now we can go back to watching American Idol, right?

Why medical schools provide Islamic extremists with fertile recruiting grounds

Michael Binyon: Analysis
Medicine and engineering have long been the two most prestigious professions for Muslims. Some of the Arab world’s most famous writers and politicians have studied these disciplines. But so too have its most notorious extremists, including Osama bin Laden, who trained as an engineer, and Ayman al-Zawahiri, his deputy, who qualified as a doctor.

In Egypt, the top echelons of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood have long been full of doctors, engineers and geologists, while Hamas, the Palestinian Islamist party, is also dominated by such professionals, many of whom studied in Egypt. Recruiting such pillars of the community – who are often driven by strong ambition and convictions and may also be easily swayed by political extremism – has therefore been a prime aim of al-Qaeda. It has sought, especially, to radicalise Muslim medical and engineering students overseas, where they are often perplexed by a liberal culture, isolated from their families and more easily indoctrinated. Many, especially those from poor families, are proud of their achievements and believe that they have a right to be heeded. In many Middle Eastern countries, doctors, as leaders in their communities, are sucked into politics and become radicalised when they run into the inevitable corruption and frustrations. Dr George Habash, the leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, was a classic example and was among the most extreme of the Palestinian militants in the 1970s and 1980s.

* This writer, Michael Binyon, hits off with the right note, and then he swallows taqiyya by the bucket load:

Overwhelmingly, however, Muslim physicians reject extremism. Dr Abdullah Shehu, a member of the Muslim Doctors and Dentists Association, categorically rejected any link with violence. “It is completely contrary to the teachings of both medicine and Islam,” he said yesterday.

* You see, if Michael Binyon knew something about the teachings of Islam he wouldn’t write such a schlock.

Read it all…

* Yeah, right: But what will they do about it? Will actions follow, or will these too prove to be empty words? They are either believing muslims who want to conquer and forcibly convert us or they are apostates who have to go into hiding after they speak up. But any steaming pile of taqiyya is better than nothing at all…

* Naive infidels will gobble it up, no doubt!

* Muslims: ‘Don’t look at what we do, just listen to the BS we tell you…’

By Hugh Muir in the Guardian
Britain’s most influential Muslim umbrella group today signalled a major shift in policy as it urged its communities to play a key and potentially decisive role in the fight against terrorism.
Declaring that “condemnation is not enough”, leaders of the Muslim Council of Britain, which has 400 affiliate organisations, voiced its most robust message yet and appealed to all Muslims to work hand in hand with the police.

The message carries dangers for the MCB, which has been criticised by radical activists for being too close to the government and the establishment.

But today Muhammad Abdul Bari, the MCB secretary general, said the current crisis meant that issues of conflict between the government, the police and Muslim communities – who have clashed in the past over anti-terrorist incidents and foreign policy – needed to be put to one side.

“When the house is on fire, the concern must be not to blame each other but to put the fire out. Our country is under threat-level critical.

“Those who seek to deliberately kill or maim innocent people are the enemies of us all. There is no cause whatsoever that could possibly justify such barbarity.”

He said the police and security services “deserve the fullest support and cooperation from each and every sector of our society, including all Muslims.”

*

* It would be a start if Abdul was sincere. But if you really want to know what Muslims are on about you can log on to  Inayat Bunglawalla . Bunglawalla of the Bunglawalla Ding Dong-blog”- Inayat was caught sending hate-messages to LGF a while ago. He writes for the Guradian and runs the Islamophobia Watch site. We won’t link to it, but you can get yourself a first hand impression of not only how deluded these wackjobs are, but how persistent they beat the ‘racism-fascist-nazi- drums, and they get away with it.

Fact is: It is them, the Islamo-nazi’s, who are all of the above. They are also terrorists, genocidal lunatics and assassins,- but they shamelessly keep projecting their filth upon us.

* We have to stop them before they overcome us!

Brigitte Gabriel Speaks Truth to Power

The Result of Multiculti-Diversity-Islamic-Supremacy in Blackburn

Did Johston ‘revert’ to Islam? Did they treat him well? Does he hate the Jooozzz more than before now? Surely he wouldn’t blame the Islamanics who held him, or would he? We shall see…

We didn’t hear much from Steve Centanni after his Pali-kidnappers released him, after forcibly ‘reverting’ him to Islam. Needless to say, the MSM won’t mention anything about it. Here he is; Link

Couldn’t possibly be a ‘rootcause’ of the conflict, could it? Nah, nobody takes religion seriously, that’s all so passe’- its all about the Jooozzz, if they would only give up more land….

What? No suntan?

Kidnapped BBC journalist Alan Johnston is all smiles after being freed following four months in captivity in Gaza City 04 July. Johnston was freed early Wednesday in Gaza City after nearly four months in captivity, following an agreement reached by the Islamist movement Hamas with his abductors(AFP/Mohammed Abed)

GAZA CITY (AFP) – BBC journalist Alan Johnston was freed early Wednesday in Gaza City after nearly four months in captivity, following an agreement reached by the Islamist movement Hamas with his abductors.

“He was freed following an agreement with his kidnappers and he is in good health,” read a Hamas statement.

* Translation: ‘Agreement’- means $$$$$$

Johnston was seen outside the house of Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniya wearing jeans and a blue T-shirt with BBC colleagues, an AFP journalist said.

BBC’s director in Gaza, Sayed Abu Samallah, confirmed to AFP that “Alan is in our hands and he is in good health.”

Johnston, an award-winning journalist, was the only Western reporter still based permanently in the Gaza Strip when he was snatched at gunpoint on March 12.

The Army of Islam, the extremist group which claimed to have kidnapped the 45-year-old reporter, had threatened to kill him if any rescue attempt is made.

On June 24, Johnston appeared in a video, saying he was wearing a bomb-belt that his captors would detonate if there was any attempt to rescue him.

The Army of Islam had demanded the release of prisoners held in Britain and Jordan, has accused Hamas of exerting undue pressure for Johnston’s release in spiralling tensions between the two groups.

Hamas fighters on Tuesday fought gunbattles with Army of Islam militants in the Gaza suburb where Johnston was believed held, Hamas and witnesses said.

The clashes came after members of Hamas’s armed wing set up checkpoints at the entrance to the Sabra neighbourhood, searching vehicles and fanning out around a compound, witnesses said.

Sakher Abu El Oun reports for AFP:

GAZA CITY (AFP) – BBC journalist Alan Johnston was freed in Gaza on Wednesday after 16 weeks held hostage by Palestinian extremists, looking pale and drawn but delighted that his “terrifying” ordeal was over.

The Briton, by far the longest-held Westerner in the radicalised and impoverished Gaza Strip, stepped into the outside world before daybreak clutched by Hamas officials and surrounded by men waving guns in the air.

* ‘ Radicalised and impoverished Gaza strip?’ Hmm, who’s fault is that? And why are thy waving guns in the air? Must be a cultural thing…

“This case was a first priority for the Hamas government,” Haniya said.

* You see, Hamas are the good guys. The others are ‘extremists’… but who are the ‘others?’

“We made a big effort in past months to free him. He is the friend of the Palestinian people,” he said, expressing hope that a deal would be reached allowing the release of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, who has been held in Gaza for a year.

* Sure he is a ‘friend of the Palistanian people’- that’s why Al Bebeceera sent him there…

Before Johnston left, Haniya pinned a Palestinian flag on Johnston’s lapel and draped a Palestinian flag around his shoulders.

Johnston all wrapped up!

Johnston then drove across the Erez border terminal in a BBC car with the broadcaster’s Jerusalem bureau chief Simon Wilson, accompanied by a British consulate car, before getting his passport checked by the Israeli authorities.

* Should read: Heading for safety to Israel. But an Arab would never write that…

Stuck on Stupid:

Then you wonder why he is called ‘Anal-ist’!

Gee, what a coincidence! I wonder what ideology they all held in common. Were they all committed Quakers, maybe? Devout Presbyterians? Serious Libertarians? Raw food vegan zealots? Come on, Ayres, you’re the expert. Give us a hint!

An example of what passes for serious analysis in these days when the best and the brightest are too cowed, too compromised, too lazy, or too bored to find out what’s behind all this jihad business: “Diverse group allegedly in British plot,” by David Rising for Associated Press, thanks to JW

*
LONDON – They had diverse backgrounds, coming from countries around the globe, but all shared youth and worked in medicine. They also had a common goal, authorities suspect: to bring havoc and death to the heart of Britain.
No, their common goal was to institute Sharia in Britain, and along the way to strike terror into the hearts of Allah’s enemies (cf. Qur’an 8:60). Havoc and death were a means an end.

Instrument of ‘common Ideology’

*

The eight people held Tuesday in the failed car bombing plot include one doctor from Iraq and two from India. There is a physician from Lebanon and a Jordanian doctor and his medical assistant wife. Another doctor and a medical student are thought to be from the Middle East.
All employees of the United Kingdom’s National Health Service, some worked together as colleagues at hospitals in England and Scotland, and experts and officials say the evidence points to the plot being hatched after they met in Britain, rather than overseas.

“To think that these guys were a sleeper cell and somehow were able to plan this operation from the different places they were, and then orchestrate being hired by the NHS so they could get to the UK, then get jobs in the same area — I think that’s a planning impossibility,” said Bob Ayres, a former U.S. intelligence officer now at London’s Chatham House think tank.

“A much more likely scenario is they were here together, they discovered that they shared some common ideology, and then they decided to act on this while here in the UK,” he said.

“Some common ideology”- Doesn’t matter which one, evidently.

Terror arrests : the list of suspects

By Richard Holt and Richard Alleyne

Abdulla is arrested at Glasgow airport on Saturday

Link to Telegraph

Is Gordon Brown England’s Idiot for the World?

In “‘Islamophobia’ Idiocy” in the New York Post (thanks to JW), Amir Taheri skewers Gordon Brown’s ridiculous prohibition on calling the terrorists “Muslims,” and explains why this politically correct straitjacket is a bad idea:

THE car-bomb/suicide-terror operations in London and Glasgow should have provided a fresh opportunity for reminding everyone, especially Muslims in Britain, that terrorism in the name of Islam still poses a major threat to public peace and safety. Yet this is not what is happening.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown keeps repeating that the attacks have nothing to do with Islam – but, at the same time, keeps inviting “Muslim community leaders” to Downing Street to discuss how to prevent attacks. If the attacks have nothing to do with Islam, why invite Muslim “leaders” rather than Buddhist monks?

Brown hasn’t deemed fit to tell it like it is: that Muslims in Britain, indeed all over the world, must come out and condemn terrorism in unambiguous terms.
* Something they can’t do. Because jihad-terror is commanded by the ‘immutable Koran’ and jihad is the ‘pinnacle’ of Islam.

If Islam is the religion of peace, then the real Islamphobes are those who planted the car bombs in London and Glasgow – not the poor Brits who are censoring themselves and curbing their hard-won freedoms in order not to offend “the Muslim community.”

Melanie Phillips injects some sanity into this madness

Fatal flaws in our defence against terror

Far from damping this fire down, the Government itself is fanning the flames still further. Because it refuses to acknowledge that this is an Islamic religious war against the West, the political and security establishment is actually trying to use Islamist religious extremism as an antidote to Islamist terrorism without acknowledging the unbroken line between the two.

So it is actually promoting, as role models for impressionable young Muslims seeking a purpose to their lives, Islamists who claim not to support violence – even though they spout hatred of the West, Americans and Jews.

Ludicrously, it has even recruited Islamist radicals into government – to act as advisors against Islamic radicalism.

This lethal misjudgment has had disastrous results. Extremism has multiplied. The police themselves have been compromised. As the former radical Ed Husain has written, Islamists who work closely with the police to “represent Muslims” have been tipping off jihadists about police activities.

And the Government’s refusal to outlaw Hizb ut Tahrir, on the spurious grounds that although it promotes the Islamic takeover of Britain it is not committed to violence, has meant that this group continues to recruit thousands of students on campus to the cause of jihad against the West.

This is madness. The result is that, while most British Muslims say they would have no truck with terrorism or violence, an insupportable number of them do endorse appalling ideas.

The most fundamental failing of all, however, is the Government’s counter-terrorist strategy itself. Known as Project Contest, this refuses to acknowledge that the true driver of Islamist terror is religious fanaticism.

Instead, it attributes its causes to Muslim poverty, discrimination and grievances over foreign policy. In other words, it blames us.

The analysis is demonstrably absurd. Many of these terrorists are prosperous, middle class and well-educated. Indeed, two of the suspects who have been arrested are doctors. Muslims are being murdered in vast numbers in Iraq not by us, but by other Muslims.

And as Mr Brown said yesterday, the first attempt to blow up the Twin Towers occurred as long ago as 1993; Islamist terrorism is taking place all over the world and in countries where there is no connection with Iraq or the Middle East at all.

The fact is that the Islamists have always used any and every grievance – Bosnia, Kashmir, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Palestine, Salman Rushdie (twice) – to recruit to their cause.

But the real source of this terror, as former extremists have told us, is the aim to conquer the West and Islamise the world.

Without doubt, they are currently using the Iraq war to whip up further hysteria and gain more recruits. The dreadful thing is that they are being aided by self-loathing British ideologues.

For every time someone blames the West for Iraq, yet more overwrought and culturally stranded British Muslim boys are recruited to mass murder by this echo chamber for Muslim rage.

Read it all…

The wincing whiners from the Islamic trifecta—denial, whining, and veiled threats– and their enablers, are at it again:

Its all about ‘racism’- of course!

Muslims feel the hands of racism tighten around them

There is a sucker born every minute, and they all seem to sign up for the MSM drive-by journo-education: Brigid Delaney and Cynthia Banham from the Sydney Morning Herald fast food news service dig into a steaming pile of taqiyya and soil themselves with it:

Wear and tear … Iman Eid feels uncomfortable when she wears her hijab when manning the tills at her part-time job. Photo: Steven Siewert

*

* Imagine: She feels ‘uncomfortable-‘ and the twits from the SMH don’t bother to interview the victims of the Bali bombings, they prefer whiners from Islamistan who whine about ‘racism’ – Now are you self-hating scum or what?

Talk to 21-year-old Iman Eid and you realise that racism, like a grass fire, flares in certain climates.

September 11, the Bali bombing, the Tampa affair and the gang rapes in Sydney all signalled an increase in racial vilification, Ms Eid and her friends believe. “There was definitely more racism around after these events,” she said.

* Really? How come there was no ‘backlash?’

Her decision to wear a hijab 10 months ago was another trigger. She has experienced nothing as overt as the university friend who had her scarf ripped off soon after the Bali bombings, but she says the scarf has given people licence to question her about her religious and political views.

* Hmm. What makes you think ‘triggered’ her wearing a hijab? The turds from the SMH don’t even bother to ask…

She feels more comfortable wearing the scarf in some places than in others. At her job at a supermarket, she feels the weight of shoppers’ gazes resting more heavily on her than other workers, but at the University of NSW, where she is studying a Bachelor of Arts, she “feels more respect”.

* ‘Respect’ for wearing a misogynistic symbol? Thanks, but NO thanks…

Ms Eid’s experiences are similar to the two-thirds of Muslim and Arab Australians who say they have experienced racism or racial vilification since the September 11 attacks, according to a report launched by the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission yesterday.

* Are Brigid Delaney and Cynthia Banham from the SMH ready to submit to Islam yet in their befuddled PC-delusions?

Women were more likely to suffer racism, with 90 per cent of female respondents experiencing racial abuse or violence since September 11.

More than half who had experienced racism in public said it was inspired by the wearing of their hijab, while 43 per cent experienced racism in shopping malls and the same number experienced racism on public transport or while driving.

* Fine. Last time I checked Australia was not an Islamic country under sharia. Why rub an alien cult in our faces that wants us dead or converted?
The report, surveying the experiences of 1400 Arab and Muslim Australians, urges the Federal Government to strengthen anti-discrimination laws, but a spokeswoman for the Attorney-General, Philip Ruddock, said no such changes would be made. She said the Government believed education was the key to beating racism.

* Heaven forbid any more protection for those who wish us harm! ‘Protection’ for those who came to pervert this country to the cult of Islam. We may as well offer drug-dealers protection from the police…

It is US, the natives who need protection from this madness and moonbats like Brigid Delaney and Cynthia Banham who buy into this creeping Islamization…

*

* Wrap a towel round your head and you turn into another ‘race’- its magic!

So which ‘race’ are we today, baby? Male, female or just ghostly?

A poster from LGF doesn’t hold back:

Those of us who had the audacity to question the folly of allowing Islamic radicalism to foment in this country in the name of ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’ were smeared as ‘racists’.
Left-wing assholes are the same the world over. Assholes.

Gordon Brown: Don’t Say Terrorists Are Muslims

If you were hoping that British elites might be shocked into a state of awareness by the Islamic terror attacks, you’re going to be sorely disappointed.

Because new prime minister Gordon Brown thinks the best way to approach the subject is to crack down on free speech and refuse to acknowledge reality: Brown: Don’t say terrorists are Muslims.

Gordon Brown has banned ministers from using the word “Muslim” in connection with the terrorism crisis.

The Prime Minister has also instructed his team – including new Home Secretary Jacqui Smith – that the phrase “war on terror” is to be dropped.

The shake-up is part of a fresh attempt to improve community relations and avoid offending Muslims, adopting a more “consensual” tone than existed under Tony Blair. …

* Sounds more like lunatics running the asylum…

Can you see Winston Churchill passing the same rules in 1939. “Do not call Nazi’s Germans. Not all Germans are Nazi’s, but all Nazi’s were Germans. But I repeat AGAIN do not call Nazi’s Germans.”

Yeah, right. Churchill. Even Thatcher would kick Browns ass up one side and down the other.

We will see more of this in the future. When there is a problem the government will change the names, change the rules, and redefine the laws to make the problem go away. But it won’t go away.

Mr Brown’s spokesman acknowledged yesterday that ministers had been given specific guidelines to avoid inflammatory language. “There is clearly a need to strike a consensual tone in relation to all communities across the UK,” the spokesman said. “It is important that the country remains united.”

* Dhimmitude. Scared into submission…

He confirmed that the phrase “war on terror” – strongly associated with Mr Blair and US President George Bush – has been dropped.

* Lipstick on a pig doesn’t change the nature of the beast..

Officials insist that no direct links with Muslim extremists have been publicly confirmed by police investigating the latest attempted terror attacks. Mr Brown himself did not refer to Muslims or Islam once in a BBC TV interview on Sunday.

* And nobody calls Gordon Brown a despicable coward?

Ms Smith also avoided any such reference in her statement to MPs yesterday.

She said: “Let us be clear – terrorists are criminals, whose victims come from all walks of life, communities and religions. Terrorists attack the values shared by all law-abiding citizens. As a Government, as communities, as individuals, we need to ensure that the message of the terrorists is rejected.”

* Not clear at all: You are aiding and abetting and obfuscating the issues. Perhaps not every Muslim is a terrorist, but just about every terrorist today is motivated by Islam in the name of Jihad.

Tory backbencher Philip Davies said: “I don’t know what purpose is served by this. I don’t think we need pussyfoot around when talking about terrorism.”

But former Tory homeland security spokesman Patrick Mercer said: “This is quite a smart idea. We know that the vast majority of Muslims are not involved in terrorism and we have to accept there are sensitivities about these matters.”

* But terror is only a strategy. Its the demographics, stupid!

*

Beyond Parody:

In Glasgow, police carried out controlled explosions on a car outside a mosque in the city at about 5am today. The car, which has now been removed for forensic analysis, was linked to the Glasgow airport attack.

Officers had waited for prayers at the mosque, which is not linked to the inquiry, to finish before looking at the car. The bomb squad was called in as a precaution and police had no information that a device was inside.

Police suspect that the leader of the terror cell is one of the five doctors held in the UK who were working or training for the NHS, Mohammed Asha, a 26-year-old neurosurgeon who lives in Staffordshire. Dr Asha and his 27-year-old wife were arrested on Saturday driving on the M6 near Sandbach in Cheshire.

He’s a doctor, of course. Aussie doctor held over terror plot.

A MAN arrested at Brisbane’s international airport overnight over the UK terror plots was a registrar at the Gold Coast Hospital in Southport.

Attorney-General Philip Ruddock said the 27-year-old man was arrested at Brisbane International airport yesterday. He did not have a return ticket.

The man, who Queensland Premier Peter Beattie said was not Australian-born, was arrested at the airport at 11pm (AEST) by a counter-terrorism team comprising Queensland police and Australian Federal Police officers after advice from UK authorities.

Mr Beattie said he understood the man had been attempting to leave Australia.

Brisbane Airport has confirmed that only one flight was delayed last night, a flight to Kuala Lumpur.

‘Terror ringleader’ is brilliant NHS doctor

• Controlled explosion carried out at Royal Alexandra Hospital

• Three more men arrested over Airport attack bringing total currently under arrest to seven

• Police search second house in Newcastle-under-Lyme

• Kurdish terror group is linked to London attacks

An Iraqi junior doctor and a brilliant neurologist working for the NHS are among the suspects being quizzed over the series of bomb attacks across Britain, it emerged today.

The news came as it emerged that an eighth person has been arrested in the terror enquiry.

Details of the suspects were revealed as police staged a controlled explosion at a hospital near Glasgow today.

The junior doctor has been named as Bilal Abdulla, who is said to have completed his medical training in Baghdad.

The suspected ringleader of the Al Qaeda car bombers is a brilliant neurologist working for the NHS.

Saudi Mohammed Asha, 26, was arrested with his 27-year-old wife, who was in traditional Muslim dress, on the M6 in Cheshire on Saturday night.

‘Asian Men’ Impostors posing as hospital inspectors

From the politically correct MSNBC

“…a bearded man in his 30s or 40s of either South Asian or Middle Eastern origin was confronted at a Boston hospital. He, too, departed when questioned…”

WASHINGTON – Federal authorities are looking into three closely bunched incidents in which people posing as inspectors were caught nosing around hospitals in Boston, Detroit and Los Angeles.

No arrests have been made and there is no evidence to suggest the cases are linked or there is a tie to terror groups, federal officials said.

“We do not possess any specific intelligence that there is a terrorism nexus to these reports,” Homeland Security spokeswoman Kathleen Montgomery said Friday.

Hmmm? Mark Steyn:

* Are we getting to the bottom of it? And if so, what will be done? What will those who have sworn to protect us do to protect us from the onslaught of Islam?

*
Names are being named in Australia, in the wake of the attacks in the UK, and the realization that there’s a serious problem with militant Islam down under as well: Hardline Muslim clerics in Australia named.

* Actually, there is no ‘militant or radical Islam’- Islam itself is radical and militant. ‘Fanatical’ Islam is just Islam. We have always maintained that there are NO MODERATES…

Ask any ‘good muslim’- he will tell you the same thing.
A NUMBER of Australian Muslim clerics have been identified as key hardliners who are preaching fundamentalist messages.

National security sources told The Australian they were aware of at least 10 hardline clerics around Australia who were propagating a Wahabi ideology espoused by al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

They include Sheik Bilal Dannoun, Melbourne-based Mohammed Omran and Harun Mehicivic; Sydney’s Abdul Salam Mohammed Zoud, Hatim Eissa, Khaled Eissa and Feiz Mohammed and Canberra’s Mohammed Swaiti.

Omran: Brothers in fanaticism. Clones of each other…

* Obviously there are many more. Sheik Taj Din al Hilali is not even on the list. Abdul Nacer Benbrika is not on the list either…
Sheik Bilal yesterday said claims revealed in The Australian that the Wahabi clerics were potentially radicalising up to 3000 Sydney youths were “preposterous”. He said while he was not a part of Sheik Omran and Sheik Zoud’s fundamentalist Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jammah association, he rejected claims the pair were radical.

“These are people who follow the Koran and Sunnah – they follow the teachings of Islam,” Sheik Bilal told the newspaper.

“And if following the teachings of Islam, following the way of the Prophet is called radical, then… call us radicals.”

* We shall call them radical Islamic terrorists and hate-mongers. And we demand that the government forces round them up, strip them of citizenship and deport them.

British Islamic Association Leader Blames Salman Rushdie for Terror Attacks

* Naturally. Blaming the victim is as islamic asbeheadings and stoning rape-victims…

Iran’s Alalam News interviews the head of the “Britain Islamic Association” (a group I’m not familiar with, and couldn’t find on the web), who denies Muslims were involved in the terror attacks of the past few days, whines that they’re going to be unfairly targeted, then says that if Muslims did commit the attacks (nudge nudge, wink wink) Salman Rushdie is to blame: UK Muslims Facing More Threats. (Warning: the link goes to an Iranian site, and they often contain viruses or other malware.)

It’s the Islamic trifecta—denial, whining, and veiled threats.

LONDON, July 1—Head of Britain Islamic Association said here on Sunday that the situation of Muslims in Britain would be deteriorated in results of finding several bombs in two suspected cars which were to target the Glasgow airport.

In an exclusive interview with Alalam, Al-Sayyed Farjani said while Britain Muslims are strongly condemning the terrorist attacks, unfortunately there are always charges against the Muslims accusing them of involving in these attacks.

Referring to the vital role of Muslims in fighting against terrorism and extremism as well as encountering with violence against the innocent people in Britain, the official said while no group has claimed the responsibility of bombings yet; some extremist parties are trying to accuse the Muslims.

* Imagine the chutzpah!

* “Its your fault we hate you! “

Farjani also strongly condemned the knighthood conferred on Salman Rushdie, adding this odious behavior could have be a main factor in preparing the ground for the youth to join terrorist groups.

* No Al-Sayyad, it’s your and the founder of your religion’s “odious behavior” that is responsible.

Reminds me of the old lawyer joke about the guy who claims that his neighbor’s goat ate his cabbages. The neighbor’s response was:
1) You never had any cabbages.
2) If you had any cabbages they were rotten and worthless anyway.
3) I don’t have a goat.
4) If I have a goat he didn’t eat your cabbages.
5) If my goat ate your cabbages he was insane at the time.

New anger erupts at Rushdie honour

Mr Khatami said the fatwa against Salman Rushdie was ‘irrevocable’
Britain’s knighthood for Salman Rushdie has been attacked again in Muslim countries during Friday prayers, with a cleric in Tehran recalling that the fatwa against Mr Rushdie remains in force.

The prayer leader in Egypt said the novelist would get a “medal in hell”, while the Afghan Taleban called him “the cursed devil whose killing is a duty”.

There was also fierce criticism from MPs and newspapers in Pakistan, which has been prominent in condemning the award, but a Saudi paper said the Muslim world had more important problems to think about.

In Islamic Iran the Fatwa of the Great Imam [Ayatollah Khomeyni] is very much in force and irrevocable… The old and decaying government of Britain ought to know that the mythical era of colonial power has well gone… You Britain will not achieve anything. What you have gained, instead, is the rage of Islam

AHMAD UMAR HASHIM AT FRIDAY PRAYERS ON EGYPTIAN AL-MISRIYAH TV
If those who have no conscience honoured this sinful devil and this vicious unjust person and gave him a medal, it is a medal in hell.

TALEBAN STATEMENT ON JIHADIST WEBSITE
We strongly condemn and denounce this action by Britain which deliberately targets Muslims… We hope that Muslims will force the British government to apologise, to withdraw the honorary title from the cursed devil, whose killing is a duty.

PAKISTANI PARLIAMENT RESOLUTION
The British government and prime minister has not only disappointed the Pakistani nation but also has hurt its feelings… This house again demands that Britain immediately withdraw the title and apologise.

PAKISTAN MP KHAWAJA SA’AD RAFIQ IN CAPTION ON ARY ONE WORLD TV
Whoever kills Rushdie will be a hero for Muslims.

PAKISTAN PEOPLE’S PARTY IN CAPTION ON ARY ONE WORLD TV
We condemn both Salman Rushdie and suicide bombings; the federal minister Eijaz-ul-Haq has given the wrong impression to foreign countries by declaring suicide bombings legitimate.

PAKISTAN’S ISLAM NEWSPAPER
The UK has tried to deceive 1.5 billion Muslims, which is a shameful and condemnable act. It is surprising that, since the publication of Rushdie’s book, no Muslim country has ended diplomatic ties with the UK or even lodged a strong protest.

PAKISTAN OBSERVER
Freedom of expression does not mean insulting others and mocking their values and beliefs. The title has been given on the recommendation of the prime minister who is known for his anti-Muslim credentials.

SINDH PROVINCE CHIEF MINISTER ARBAB GHULAM RAHIM
I will now return these [titles given to his ancestors by Britain] as no Muslim can accept any title from the Queen after she honoured Salman Rushdie.

INDIAN KASHMIR REBEL GROUP HEZB-UL-MUJAHEDEEN
Awarding a knighthood to Rushdie amounts to blatant anti-Muslim bias, and Muslims all over the world condemn the move.

INDONESIAN CLERIC TARMIZI TAHER ON ANTARA NEWS AGENCY
Powerful countries cannot do as they like, or say anything under the cover of freedom of expression… Dialogues between civilizations and on peace and equality are proving to be mere lip service.

INDONESIAN MUSLIM ACADEMIC ZANNUBA ARIFAH CHAFSOH ON ANTARA NEWS AGENCY
We deeply regret and strongly criticise the knighthood… But we cannot revoke his right to express his views. Even those who do not believe in God have rights. They cannot be punished or killed or subjected to arbitrary acts. Islam does not teach violence.

INDONESIA’S SUARA MERDEKA
We ought to worry that the fanaticism and motivation of hard-line groups will once again revive as a result of the “provocation”.

ABEER MISHKHAS IN SAUDI ARAB NEWS
I think we Muslims are wasting our time protesting about what happens in other countries when the whole Islamic world has far bigger problems to face within its own borders… We should stop causing trouble outside our borders, no matter how strongly we feel.

 UK’s ‘deep concern’ over Rushdie

The UK’s envoy to Pakistan has expressed “deep concern” over comments by a Pakistani minister about Sir Salman Rushdie’s knighthood.
Religious Affairs Minister Mohammad Ejaz ul-Haq’s comments were widely seen as justifying suicide attacks because Sir Salman had insulted Islam.

But High Commissioner Robert Brinkley said it was untrue that the knighthood was intended to insult Islam.

Sir Salman’s book The Satanic Verses sparked worldwide protests in 1989.

‘Blasphemous book’

Mr Brinkley was summoned to the Pakistani foreign ministry in Islamabad on Tuesday afternoon.

A spokesman for Mr Brinkley said he “made clear the British government’s deep concern at what the minister for religious affairs was reported to have said”.

 I am thrilled and humbled to receive this great honour, and am very grateful that my work has been recognised in this way
Sir Salman Rushdie

Your reaction: emails from around the world

“The British government is very clear that nothing can justify suicide bomb attacks,” the spokesman added.

Mr Brinkley was summoned so that Pakistan could protest against Britain’s “utter lack of sensitivity” in knighting Sir Salman, the foreign ministry spokeswoman said.

Mr Brinkley was told that the honour countered attempts by both countries to build mutual understanding.

The BBC’s Barbara Plett in Islamabad says the diplomatic row is heated but that so far it has stayed mostly within official circles.

Iranian conservatives on Tuesday criticised Britain’s Queen Elizabeth over the decision to confer the knighthood on Mr Rushdie.

“Salman Rushdie has turned into a hated corpse which cannot be resurrected by any action,” First Deputy Speaker Mohammad Reza Bahonar told Iran’s parliament.

“The action by the British Queen in knighting Salman Rushdie, the apostate, is an unwise one,” he said to loud applause from MPs.

“The British monarch lives under this illusion that Britain is still a 19th Century superpower and that bestowing titles is something still deemed important.”

Foehammer has a terrific piece up on Islamo-medicine men:

Jihad Doctors Should Not Surprise You

Jihad doctors are nothing new. Blogger Debbie Schlussel put together a few names back in May of 2007:

Dr. Ayman Al-Zawahiri–Al-Qaeda mastermind and number two man, reportedly a surgeon and/or psychiatrist;

*
Dr. Mohammad Rabi Al-Zawahiri–Ayman’s father and a Muslim Brotherhood enthusiast, pharmacologist and professor at Ain Shams Medical School;

*
Dr. “Abu Hafiza”–Al-Qaeda master planner who was the brains and commander of the Moroccan cell that provided logistics for the 9/11 attacks, and he recruited Qaeda insurgents for battles in Fallujah, Moroccan psychiatrist;

*
Dr. Abdel Aziz Al-Rantisi–Late HAMAS leader, pediatrician;

*
Dr. Mahmoud Al-Zahar–HAMAS co-founder and leader, surgeon and lecturer at the Islamic University in Gaza;

*
Dr. Fathi Abd Al-Aziz Shiqaqi–Late founder of Islamic Jihad and active in Fatah, physician;

*
Dr. George Habash–Founder and chief of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), pediatrician (which is interesting since he rocketed a school bus full of children in Avivim, Israel;

*
Dr. Bashar Assad–President of Terror-sponsor state Syria, welcoming home to every Islamic terrorist group imaginable, ophthalmologist.

*
Sort of makes the whole “tiny minority of extremists” theory look that much more ridiculous, don’t you think? When law enforcement officials on both sides of the Big Pond say they are looking for “links to a terrorist organization”, they never name the biggest terrorist organization of all: Islam.

Quick! Run away from the Reality of it all!

The primary tenet of Islam is to spread Islam. Violence and intimidation have been the primary means of this indoctrination throughout history. So, do not be surprised again when jihad doctors make a “house call”; they might even be “fired up” to see you.

Read it all…

Five Jihad Doctors!

The total number of doctors involved in the UK/Scotland terror attacks is now FIVE.

Five doctors are now being held in connection with the recent attempted terror attacks – one is an Iraqi doctor who trained in Baghdad.

Sky sources named him as Iraqi Bilal Abdulla – he was left relatively unscathed in an attack on Glasgow airport, in which two men drove a flaming jeep into the airport terminal.

Two doctors were arrested in Paisley, Glasgow, another in Liverpool and one on the M6 on Saturday night.

Abdulla was pictured being led away from the explosion by police and worked at the Royal Alexandra Hospital near Glasgow. The other man detained at Glasgow airport had severe burns and remains in a critical condition at the Royal Alexandra.

Not Only Doctors: Lawyers Too! 

UK Islamist Leader Anjem Choudary: “Terror Attacks Completely Justified”

This retarded islamic extremist, who previously has said the Pope should be executed for having offended the prophet of the Religion of Peace, justifies the thwarted terrorist attacks in London and Glasgow. And he sees more coming:

The thwarted car bombings in London last week and the terror attack this weekend against Scotland’s busiest airport were “completely justified” and likely the beginning of many more attacks in Britain, a prominent UK Islamist leader connected to terror supporting groups told WND yesterday.
He thinks the attacks were carried out by “local British muslims”. (What!? Not buddhists!?).

Read the article to see who he blames. You will not be surprised.

After all, Choudary has defended muslims right to self-express themselves:
“We should not be surprised at people doing something like 7/7. How else do you expect Muslims to express themselves? We are a community under siege. It’s going to blow up in everyone’s faces one day.”

* Political correctness and cowardice before the enemy is killing us!

Re: Shouldnt the muslim community of UK protest the recent terror attacks?

1) No one knows who did it.

(if they are muslim, smile (
2) Comndemnation Islamically should come through showing proof from the Qur’aan and Sunnaah and advise, rather than shouting on the BBC at the pleasure of the Kuffaar.

3) Condemn the Kuffaar for their wrongs in OUR lands.

4) Don’t forget, if they are muslim, they are your brothers.

Don’t ever give the impression the kuffaar are more valuable.

This is a difference between correcting, advising and disassociating completely.

I know people don’t like to be tested because of their deen, just remember Muhammad saws and the companions..

They had the best dawah, best method, and still went through alot.

Comment:

Comndemnation Islamically should come through showing proof from the Qur’aan and Sunnaah and advise
In other words:

And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter.

Magistrate walks out over Muslim woman’s veil

You got to read this to believe it.

Here we have a criminal Muslimah, charged with criminal damage, but that is all we get to know. The whole thing is twisted against a magistrate who refused to deal with her because she was wearing a ghost costume in court.

Instead of forcing the thuggish female to take the black shade cloth off, the magistrate is vilified and the whole PC-media circus focuses on ‘cultural sensitivities’- the thieving rat becomes a victim, she is ‘shocked and distressed’- Sanity has left the building!

Read it and weep:

A magistrate is facing an inquiry after refusing to deal with a defendant wearing a full Muslim veil, the Judiciary of England and Wales said yesterday.

Ian Murray walked out of the case at Manchester magistrates’ court yesterday because Zoobia Hussain, 32, of Crumpsall, Manchester, was covered by a hijab.

* Actually a burka or niqab.

Hussain’s lawyer, Judith Hawkins, said her client was “shocked and distressed” and found Mr Murray’s treatment of her “insensitive and unacceptable”.

Miss Hawkins said she would submit a formal written complaint to the court on Monday. When the complaint is received, the judiciary will launch an internal investigation into Mr Murray’s behaviour, a spokesman said.

Miss Hawkins said yesterday: “She [Hussain] remains shocked and distressed. She suffered hurt feelings and felt intimidated and deeply embarrassed by the treatment she received at court.

* Imagine! We can’t have that in multicultural diverse Britain!
“She is also concerned for the feelings of others who were present in court.

“She feels that the court’s treatment of her was insensitive, unacceptable and against the traditions of fairness and equality that we have come to expect from our system of justice.

“She is angry that, as a result of the ensuing publicity, she has now had to explain to her children what happened.”

* So the children of criminals have a right NOT to know that their parents are crims? I like that! Where do I sign up?

Hussain, who is charged with criminal damage, covered her entire face apart from her eyes when she faced the three magistrates.

Mr Murray, a taxi driver from Cheadle Hulme, Stockport, who has served on the bench for 12 years, felt the way she was dressed raised identity issues but left the hearing without explaining why.

Before he walked out, Miss Hawkins told the bench that her client, as a practising Muslim, covered herself in public places where men were present.

A statement from the Judiciary of England and Wales said: “Mr Murray is concerned about questions of identity when the full veil is worn in court.

* Submission:

“However, he agrees that he acted unwisely in disqualifying himself without giving reasons, and acknowledges that he should have sought the advice of his legal adviser in court, and discussed the provisions of the national guidelines with his colleagues on the bench, before taking action.

* Prostrating themselves before Islam:

“Mr Murray is supportive of those of different faiths and cultural traditions and acknowledges and regrets his action could be misinterpreted.”

The judiciary’s guidelines indicate situations should be judged on a case-by-case basis. But they state there should be a “willingness to accommodate different practices and approaches to religious and cultural observance”, provided “justice can be properly served”.

A spokesman for the Ramadhan Foundation said: “It is despicable that the judiciary is ignoring the guidelines about the wearing of the hijab set out only in February by the Judicial Studies Board.

* ‘Despicable?’ Guidelines?

“They require that magistrates and judges be ‘sensitive’ to a woman’s religious requirement to wear the hijab and work around it when possible.”

Hussain’s case was adjourned until July 18.

But it didn’t work in Georgia:

Muslim woman barred from Georgia courtroom for wearing scarf

VALDOSTA — A Muslim woman seeking to contest a simple speeding ticket in this south Georgia city says she was denied access to a municipal courtroom last week for wearing a traditional Islamic head scarf.

Aniisa Karim, 20, said she was stopped after entering Valdosta’s municipal court building Tuesday and told she would not be permitted to enter the courtroom wearing her scarf.

“I said, ‘No, I’m Muslim … I wear this for religious reasons and if you don’t allow me in the courtroom with my scarf on basically you are violating my civil rights and my right to a free religion,’ ” Karim told the Valdosta Daily Times.

Karim said an officer told her the denial was due to “homeland security reasons” and that allowing her to enter would show disrespect to Judge Vernita Lee Bender.

She said she offered to walk through a metal detector and allow officers to use a handheld metal detector to scan the scarf.

A national Islamic civil rights group has taken up the case. In a letter to Georgia Attorney General Thurbert Baker, the Council on American-Islamic Relations asks Baker to “take appropriate action to ensure that the legal, religious and civil rights of Georgians of all faiths be maintained.”

Baker’s office and the Valdosta municipal court were unable to be reached by The Associated Press for comment on Sunday.

Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Washington D.C.-based group, said neither Baker’s office nor the Valdosta city attorney had responded to his group as of Sunday afternoon.

The letter from CAIR argues that barring Karim from the courtroom violated Georgia’s code of conduct for judges and the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which guarantees access to public facilities based on religious beliefs or practices.

Meanwhile, Karim said she decided to not challenge the speeding ticket and pay a $168 fine since that didn’t require her to enter the courtroom.

“I feel like in the year 2007 things like this should not happen any more,” Karim said. “Of course everyone doesn’t know everything about different religions, but if I tell you, ‘I’m Muslim this is a part of my religion,’ I feel like if you are a public officer you should be educated enough to know.”

* Right. Islam is bringing us modernity and education. The mind boggles…
