Muslims who plotted to kill Pope overheard saying that a "Christian should be killed for every page that was damaged" of the Qur'an

Street cleaners arrested over an alleged plot to kill the Pope were said to have been overheard threatening to kill a Christian for every page of the Koran, it has emerged.

A report on the incident has said that although all six men were later released without charge, police were justified in making the arrests after receiving a call at 4.30pm on September 16, the day before the Pope was due to arrive in London.

The caller reported that five men were looking at a picture in the Metro newspaper of the Pope’s motor vehicle and talking about a recent incident where the Koran was allegedly burned.

They were overheard saying that a “Christian should be killed for every page that was damaged” according to the report by David Anderson QC, the independent reviewer of terrorism legislation.

“The view was expressed that whilst the Pope’s vehicle was protected, it could be stopped and that even if he survived, those around him would die,” Mr Anderson said.

“Comments were made to the effect that it would be wonderful if the Pope was killed and that there were virgins waiting for them.”...

One of the men was said to have returned from Paris on Monday or Tuesday of that week having shaven his hair off and become radicalised....

By 5.15 armed police were ready to make an arrest at the Veolia depot on Chiltern Street in London’s West End and the men were detained as they arrived for work and hour later.

A sixth man was arrested after arriving at work, hearing of the arrests and leaving in a agitated state, around the same time that the Pope’s convoy was making its way into central London.

The men were all of Algerian origin and living and working in Britain legally apart from one man who was Sudanese and admitted that his asylum application had been turned down and he had assumed a false identity in order to obtain work....

Forced marriages 'should be criminalised as they ruin the lives of many', say MPs

The law does little to protect thousands of young people who are pushed into marriages against their will and risk repercussions from family members if they disobey, according to new findings.

A report by the Commons' Home Affairs Select Committee said there was not enough support for victims and the situation is 'set to worsen, with many specialist services particularly at risk from spending cuts'.

Almost 300 orders to prevent forced marriages have been issued between November 2008 and this February but there has been a lack of effective follow-up action.

Only one person has been jailed for breaching an order.

MPs also said many schools were not fulfilling their responsibilities.

Partly this was because of a 'great deal of ignorance and a culture of disbelief around the risks involved' and 'an enormous fear of tackling the issues in case they get it wrong and appear racist'.

Keith Vaz MP, the committee chairman, said: 'We believe that the best way to deter people from forcing individuals into marriage is through criminalising forced marriage.

'Taking this bold step alongside providing a range of services supporting victims of violence and raising awareness in schools must be a priority for the Government.

'There should be zero tolerance of this harmful activity that ruins the lives of so many.'

The committee called for more support for teachers, saying it was 'disappointed' with assurances from Education Secretary Michael Gove that schools were already aware of the guidance available.

MPs said: 'We are extremely worried about the fact that many schools continue to refuse to engage in preventative activity with children at risk of forced marriage.

"Teachers who are not trained to respond properly to cases of forced marriage can inadvertently put pupils in greater danger by, for example, contacting their families.

 MP Keith Vaz said Education Minister Michael Gove  

'In the light of clear evidence that many schools are not fulfilling their statutory responsibilities with regard to forced marriage, the Department for Education must provide more active support to teachers to enable them to carry out a role which may risk upsetting cultural sensibilities but is nonetheless vital for child protection.'

The report also highlighted the plight of estranged or abused partners 'who are under pressure from their families to sign a request for their spouses to have indefinite leave to remain in the UK'.

The MPs said: 'Clamping down on these immigration abuses is essential first and foremost in order to protect current and future victims of forced marriage, but also to form part of a controlled immigration policy.'

A Government spokesman said the Forced Marriage Unit provided support to almost 500 British citizens at risk in the UK and abroad last year.

He said: "Those who force people into marriage against their will can expect to face civil penalties including up to two years in prison.

'Forced marriage is an appalling and indefensible practice that we are working hard to stop.

'We provide training for professionals to help them identify potential victims and improve awareness of the issue so that those at risk - including children and young people - know where to go for support.

However a senior law lecturer said criminalising forced marriages was the wrong approach.

Dr Brigitte Clark from the University of East Anglia's law school, said: 'The committee's conclusion does not seem to be borne out by the research evidence produced for the past three years on forced marriage.

'One of the main arguments against a change in the law is the concern that girls affected by forced marriages will not speak out if there is a possibility that their parents will face criminal sanctions.

'There is also a fear that the parents could, in reaction, adopt new approaches, such as sending young girls to their country of origin to be married, which would be an additional injustice for victims of forced marriages.'

She added: 'An increasingly multifaceted, well-funded, trained and sensitive approach is needed to deal with the issue of forced marriage.

'Civil practice and procedure is a possible tool to shape the ideology of the community without the risk of antagonising or polarising such communities.

'Criminalisation is expensive and not necessarily the answer: time will tell as to whether the criminal route favoured by Belgium, Germany and Norway will be more successful than the civil law approach of France and England.'

Muslim militants target Prince Harry: Fury after extremists post chilling hate video featuring young Royal online

An extremist group is believed to be targeting Prince Harry after a propaganda hate video has come to light following the assassination of Osama Bin Laden.

The 26-year-old, third in line to the throne, is the subject of a three-minute video posted last week by an organisation calling itself Muslims Against Crusades.

It is believed that Harry is being targeted to avenge the death of the Al Qaeda leader, who was shot by American commandos last Sunday, as six years ago he dressed as a Nazi and has served the British Army in Afghanistan.

Originally posted on the group's jihadist website, the video continues to show snippets of Prince Harry talking to the media while in action in Helmand Province, Afghanistan.

It also shows the royal - who spent 10 weeks in Afghanistan and joked that he is a 'bullet magnet' - using derogatory Asian terms 'Paki' and 'Raead' in videos taken while he was in the Middle East, and exposed by the News of the World.

The video, entitled 'Harry the Nazi', shows the young royal - who was best man to his elder brother William just over a week ago - serving for the British Army against Taliban forces in 2007 and 2008, saying that 'all my wishes have come true'.

It begins with the Muslims Against Crusades sign looming large and imposing, and then sounds of soldiers marching are accompanied by Arabic voices.

The clips are spliced together and framed in a central box, as though someone is watching the footage on a television, flicking through Harry's actions.

Outside of the frame, there is a dark border, and smoke rises from beneath.

The clips stop suddenly, and all that remains is a picture of Harry dressed as a Nazi - a decision which caused outrage, when he wore the outfit for a fancy dress party in 2005 - and then the production abruptly ends.

The film is designed to incite hatred against Harry - who has recently been promoted to captain in the Army - and it appears to have worked. Below the video, posted on YouTube, people have written aggressive, threatening messages in response to it.

One person wrote: 'May Allah curse and destroy him.' Another, calling himself Brother Younis, said: 'May he rot in hell.' And a third poster pointed out that both Harry and Hitler begin with the letter H, and added: 'Harry the royal British Nazi.'

Prince Harry is inevitably at risk,' a security source told the News of the World. 'As risks go up then the protection capability has to be increased.'

Muslims Against Crusades's website claims that their members are 'raising the banner for Islam' and reveals why Prince Harry - and William - are targets.

In the Frequently Asked Questions section they write: 'It would seem fitting and appropriate to condemn individuals, who sympathise with such a brutal mob (referring to the British Army  who are fighting in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya), or who promote their literature or glorify their cause.

'William and Harry are not exempt from accountability, and their conscientious decision to enrol in an army that engages in the aforementioned crimes, cannot be taken lightly.'

The extremist organisation today claimed that the video was not meant to be inflammatory, and inist that it is not a call to arms for terrorists to target Harry.

The group's spokesman, Islamic cleric Anjem Choudary did admit, however, that the video was designed to direct Muslim anger towards the Royal Family's involvement in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. 

He said the video was created to promote the group's aborted attempts to protest at the Royal Wedding. 

'There is a real anger with the Royal Family about their participation in war against Iraq and Prince Harry because of his tour fighting against Muslims in Afghanistan,' said the 44-year-old.

'Prince William has also expressed a desire to fight in Afghanistan.

'This video was being used to explain why we were planning to protest at the Royal Wedding.'

He continued: 'I can assure everyone that the Muslims Against Crusades has no intention of targeting Prince Harry or any other member of the Royal Family.  

'We believe in political action, not military action. We believe in the covenant of security; in return for our wealth and well-being protected it is not permitted to target wealth and life of those with whom we live.

'It is the objective of this, and videos like it, to draw attention to the Royal Family's involvement in wars that kill our Muslim brothers and sisters.'

Last Friday Choudary organised a 200-person strong protest outside the U.S. Embassy in London, so that Muslims Against Crusades could voice their opinions against 'arrogant' President Obama, who ordered the commandos to attack Bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad, northern Pakistan.

They organised a mock funeral for the 54-year-old Al Qaeda leader, and carried placards which read: 'Royal Family baby killers' and 'William and Harry watch your back'.

And Al Qaeda-supporting cleric Choudary warned that Britain is likely to suffer another 7/7 terrorist attack.

'Following the boasts and gloats of the arrogant President Barack Obama that he ordered the murder of "unarmed" Sheikh Osama Bin Laden without trial or consideration of his rights and the shooting and kidnapping of his defenceless wife and son, Muslims around the world are witness to America's utter disregard for fairness or justice,' the Muslims Against Crusades website explained.

Police stepped in to separate the protesters and members of the English Defence League amid threats of violence from both sides.

Though many were shocked that the protest was allowed to go ahead, coming as it did shortly after the verdict into the 7/7 inquest was released by Lady Justice Heather Hallett.

She recorded that the 52 victims had been 'unlawfully' killed when four terrorists attacked three London Underground trains and a bus in 2005.

While the Metropolitan Police refused to answer questions about the extremist group asked by MailOnline directly, a 'police source' told the News of the World: 'The Met are constantly monitoring activity by Muslims Against Crusades.

'If a direct threat is made we will respond.'

Police pay Muslim with links to 7/7 leader to teach them how to fight terror

A Muslim who attended a training camp organised by known extremists with the ringleader of the July 7 suicide bombings was later paid by police to teach officers how to combat terrorism.

Tafazal Mohammad, 46, was described at the inquest into the Al Qaeda-inspired attacks in London as a suspected ‘terrorist sympathiser’ who was twice placed under surveillance by MI5.

Yet he received more than £80,000 of taxpayers’ money to lecture Scotland Yard counter-terrorism officers, council workers and youth leaders on how best to ‘engage’ with Muslims.

Families of 7/7 victims reacted with disbelief at Mr Mohammad’s lucrative consultancy work. ‘Anyone who has been involved with terrorists needs to be fully vetted,’ said Graham Foulkes, whose son David was killed in the Edgware Road train attack.

Mr Mohammad ran an Islamic bookshop in Leeds with Mohammed Sidique Khan who, along with three other bombers, launched Britain’s deadliest terror attack since the Lockerbie bombing, killing 52 innocent people in 2005.

patrick Mercer MP, a former Conservative security spokesman, accused the police of ‘gross incompetence’ for failing to carry out checks. ‘How someone who has been the subject of surveillance by MI5 for alleged extremism can end up teaching counter-terrorism officers beggars belief,’ he added.

The Metropolitan Police admitted that it failed to vet Mr Mohammad before sending about 20 officers on a course run by his consultancy, Muslim Youth Skills, in June last year. It paid him £1,840 through the controversial Government initiative Preventing Violent Extremism, which has now been put under review because of widespread criticism that it alienated rather than engaged Muslim communities. ‘We do not routinely carry out background checks on organisations or individuals we work with or have contact with,’ said a police spokesman.

He was paid almost £70,000 by the Department for Education for his work with the National Council for Voluntary Youth Services, and he received £10,000 from a council for running seminars. Mr Mohammad’s links to the bombers emerged during the five-month inquest which ended on Friday when coroner Lady Justice Hallett ruled that all 52 victims were unlawfully killed.

In her ruling, she described Mr Mohammad as an ‘extremist’ on a number of occasions and also said he was among a group of ‘suspected terrorist sympathisers’, who, along with Khan, were trustees of an Islamic bookshop called Iqra in the Beeston area of Leeds. This was based on evidence given by an MI5 agent, who was identified as Witness G.

The inquest heard that Mr Mohammad was being watched by MI5 and West Yorkshire Police in 2001 when he attended a training camp in the Lake District that was led by Martin McDaid, a former Royal Marine and convert to Islam who was a well-known extremist in the Leeds area. Also at the camp was Khan.

MI5 photographed Mr Mohammad with Mr McDaid and Khan – and Witness G told the inquest that Mr Mohammad became a ‘person of interest’ to the security services at the time, more so than Khan.

In a 2003 operation nicknamed Honey¬suckle, the inquest heard, Mr Mohammad was again watched as part of an extremist group by MI5 and West Yorkshire Police.

By that time, Mr Mohammad and nine others had opened the Iqra bookstore. Mr Mohammad was a secretary and trustee of Iqra.

Another trustee was Khan’s fellow July 7 bomber Shehzad Tanweer and Waheed Ali and Mohammed Shakil, who were jailed in 2009 for conspiracy to attend a jihad training camp abroad.

A Met source said: ‘We can’t possibly do searches on every company and individual whose courses we go on. The problem with the Prevent scheme is that it is accused of spying too much. Now we are accused of not spying enough.’

When a Mail on Sunday reporter visited Mr Mohammad at his office in Bradford, he referred all matters to his solicitor, Imran Khan.

Declining to answer questions, Mr Khan said in a statement: ‘Mr Mohammad wishes to make clear that . . . he is not and has never been an “extremist” or a “known terrorist sympathiser”.

‘These assertions are wholly inaccurate and extremely damaging to his reputation and should not be repeated in any way.

‘Mr Mohammed has instructed us to write to the coroner to state that these assertions were never put to him so he could have the opportunity of addressing them. The coroner has been asked to correct the position.’

Muslims hold mock funeral for bin Laden in London

A protest by hundreds of Osama Bin Laden supporters sparked fury outside the US Embassy in London today as they staged a mock 'funeral service' for the terror leader.

Police stepped in to separate the protesters and members of the English Defence League amid threats of violence from both sides.

Radicals carrying placards proclaiming 'Islam will dominate the world' branded US leaders 'murderers' and warned vengeance attacks were 'guaranteed'.

The protest came shortly after the verdict into the 7/7 inquest was released by Lady Justice Heather Hallett.

She recorded that the 52 victims had been 'unlawfully' killed when four terrorists attacked three London Underground trains and a bus in 2005.

Lady Justice Hallett made a string of recommendations to both MI5 to prevent further atrocities and to 999 workers to react more effectively to major events.

Relatives of the victims wept openly as the judge announced her verdict and she paid tribute to their 'quiet dignity' before reading the name of each person who died.

However just three miles from the Royal Court of Justice, Muslim protester Abu Muaz, 28, from east London claimed 'it is only a matter of time' before another attack and that the 'West is the enemy'.

The capital has seen heightened security in recent days over fears of a revenge attacks by Al-Qaeda members.

The protest against Bin Laden's death was organised by controversial preacher Anjem Choudary - who praised both 7/7 and the September 11 attacks.

The former UK leader of the outlawed al-Muhajiroun and member of the 'poppy-burning' Muslims Against Crusades extremist group called on the U.S. to return bin Laden's body to relatives.

Echoing the deliberately impossible demand made by al-Qaeda itself, considering bin Laden was buried at sea.

muslims world wide demonstrate binladens death.

He has already warned of another 7/7-style terror attack in the wake of Bin Laden's death.

Britain has followed the US in placing its embassies, diplomatic missions and military bases around the world on heightened alert in recent days.

An EDL member did manage to slip through police lines to unveil an effigy of Bin Laden in the middle of the 300-strong group of extremist Muslims.

It prompted screams of 'USA, burn in hell' and 'Obama, burn in hell' from angry protesters....

Muslim women in niqabs offer prayers for the Al Qaeda leader outside the embassy

The pictures really speak for themselves. This spectacle was organized by Anjem Chaudary, and it's worth repeating that he lives on £25,000 in benefits. Don't curse the kuffar with your mouth full, "Andy."
