As much as I try, I just can't feel sorry for this guy.

[War Lord]

And I'm trying very hard.

Radical preacher barred from rescue ship

A RADICAL Muslim cleric had his bid to evacuate Lebanon aboard a British ship rejected when officials blocked his return to the United Kingdom.

British authorities turned down a request from Sheikh Omar Bakri Mohammed for a one-month visa to Britain.

The preacher, who called for Muslims to rise up against Westerners, was frightened he would be bombed by the Israelis.

He said his children were very worried about him. "All I am asking is that you give these children the right to see their own father, at least as a visitor."

In an interview with a London Arabic newspaper this month, Mr Bakri Mohammed said "the day will come that the flag of Islam will fly over Big Ben and the British parliament".

He was banned from returning to Britain after he was ruled "not conducive to the public good". He fled the country in August last year in the wake of the 7 July bombings.

Charles Clarke, then Home Secretary, banned him from returning here.

The mad mullah, who hailed terrorists as “magnificent” martyrs, bought a £150,000 bolthole in the exclusive Doha district of Beirut.

In March he boasted: “When I left England I bought a one-way ticket out. I never want to see the place again.”

But cowardly Bakri changed his tune as soon as bombs started dropping.

He contacted the British embassy asking to be allowed back to see the six children he deserted. Bakri said last night: “What concerns me is my safety. I’d be happy with a month’s visa but this morning they told me I couldn’t because I’m not a British citizen any more.”

Shadow Immigration Minister Damian Green said last night: “This man has a cheek trying to come back to Britain after what he did here.”

A diplomat said: “He hasn’t spoken to any of our people. But he may have been turned away by security guards patrolling the port entrance.”

Anjem Choudary, Bakri’s right-hand man, said last night: “He plans to write to the British authorities and see if they will give him a visa for a passage out.”

Syrian Bakri can’t return there because he faces 20 years’ jail over a coup bid.

Over 20 years in the UK, Bakri sponged £300,000 in benefits. He preached violence and praised the 9/11 al-Qaeda terrorists as the Magnificent 19.

Bakri, dubbed the Tottenham Ayatollah, was a member of al-Muhajiroun, which he left to form al-Ghuraba.

Both have since been outlawed.

think if they actually let him in to London that it may change some of his views?

 

[Iceman]

This is one of those guys who's willing to tell others to give up their lives for their beliefs but is not prepared to risk his own. This would be one casualty in Lebanon that I would not mourn.

Ever see the Simpson's where, whenever Bart gets caught doing something bad and is given hell that he always apologizes and begs for forgiveness and when the other person has left the room, Bart always rubs his hands and says, "Sucker!"

I think the Brits have seen those episodes as well.

He's also called for London to burn to the ground.

I imagine that the Brits have taken some offense to that.

 

[Speedball]

The Simpson's is a very good source of wisdom apparently.

He fears for his life, while he calls for thousands to die in a war against Christianity. Sounds like a one way ticket to HELL!

quite possibly...good analogy.

i've never heard of this guy and i think everyone deserves the right to live... but, depending on the circumstances, some much more miserable than others i suppose.

He's learning the hard way that when you've chosen to become an enemy of the state, that the state takes that very seriously.

Yeah, he's quite famous here. He claims thousands of pounds in benefits and spends his time trying to brainwash young kids into throwing away their lives to destroy the country that funds his lifestyle. Now he's running scared when he's on the receiving end even though the current conflict is unfortunately helping his cause. He's obviously not as firm a believer as he thought he was.

yep...he totally deserves this.

 

[Batty for Bats!]

Meh. I don't care. I'd be pissed, but hey, it isn't me.

I disagree.

I think he is firmly convinced that he's up to his neck in deep doo-doo.

Disagree with which part?

I agree that he's aware that he's in serious trouble now.

Sadly he ain't going to hell.. he's going with Cthulhu and Christians will probably end up in Limbo

Now Budhist, those bastards are going to hell

You said he was not as firm of a believer, but didn't specify what, so I just clarified things.

In other words, it was a joke dammit.

Aah

I've been extremely slow recently.

 

[Danger Mouse]

What an idiot.

 

[War Lord]

What an idiot.

This is why you don't piss off people, because the smart ones let karma take it's course and it assuredly will.

 

[Danger Mouse]

The dude is obviously not just on the extreme opposite spectrum of smart, but a coward, too.

Wonder what his other options are? Surely he can't think that the UK is the be all end all country.

good, **** 'im

There's always Hawaii, they'll take anybody because it's so easy going there.

Or he could try Israel. I'm sure he'll be warmly received with open arms.

This guy wants to give Sheikh Omar Bakri Mohammed a big hug.
