Why Is Britain Protecting 'Jihadists'?

Select British suspects saved in Africa, flown back to UK, then released

A group of men suspected to be "jihadists" with "links to Al Qaeda" have been rescued from captors in Somalia by the British Foreign Office and flown back to the UK by the RAF, thus saving them from a death penalty handed down by Somali authorities.

 

Whitehall sources said they would keep the four men under surveillance but they will not be placed under control orders, which would allow their movements to be restricted.

 

Tory homeland security spokesman Patrick Mercer said the Government was 'wishing another problem' upon Britain, adding: 'I just find it amazing that we bring back people apparently bent on Jihad. It really does beggar belief.'

 

Once again the see through rhetoric of the 'war on terror' is witnessed as the government says one thing and does another with regards to terrorist activity on British shores.

 

It is highly suspect that these four men were rescued and brought back by high ranking officials, particularly given that scores of Britons were left to be killed, injured or captured with other foreign fighters during battles with Ethiopian troops, who invaded Somalia in December, backed by US airstrikes.

 

Tony Blair says that the British security services are doing everything in their power to protect the British people from Islamic extremism, yet again and again we see instances whereby people known to hold extremist views are systematically protected at home and abroad by the British government.

 

While this is going on the police are grabbing random innocent muslims in

media showcases for bizarre beheading plots, liquid terror attempts, ricin attacks, all of which have turned out to be totally false.

 

In the majority of cases the government is turning a blind eye to the real extremists while flaunting the ridiculous and telling us we all need to give up some of our liberties in order that they may keep us safe.

 

For over a decade the British state has infiltrated, tolerated, facilitated and protected the few real extremist groups that do exist.

 

MI5 and MI6 have, as a matter of routine, granted these groups asylum, allowed them to function with impunity in violation of British law, and even recruited their leaders as double agents.

 

Lets take a quick look at a few past examples of how the British authorities have sheltered the real terrorists:

• Abu Qatada - The radical London Cleric with strong ties to Bin Laden, and responsible for terrorist training within the UK, has perhaps the most well documented track record in terms of his MI5 links.

• Abu Hamza - Another radical London preacher, was known to posses hundreds of terrorist training tapes and manuals which he disseminated via the Finsbury Park Mosque where he was allowed to preach Jihadist mantra for years despite being monitored extensively by other MI5 informants. Documents were also discovered indicating that Hamza was involved in plots to attack London landmarks. It emerged that over a three-year period the cleric had met repeatedly with MI5 and Special Branch.

• Ahmed Omar Sheikh Saeed - High ranking "Al Qaeda" operative, thought to be the financial chief. in reality is another asset that takes his orders from the intelligence agencies. Was the go between for the transfer of money by the head of the Pakistani ISI to alleged 9/11 hijacker Mohammed Atta.Was allowed to enter and leave Britain at will between 1999 and 2001, despite being a known Al Qaeda operative. Is suspected by many to be an MI6 asset as well as working for the ISI and the CIA - thus a triple agent. Has also been sentenced for abducting and murdering US journalist Daniel Pearl.

• Haroon Rashid Aswat - Initially reported to be the mastermind behind the 7/7 London bombings. Phone records indicated Aswat had conversations with two of the London bombers in the days before the events, and even visited their home towns. He was picked up by MI5 and allowed freely into and out of the country in the days before 7/7 despite being a wanted man for attempting to set up terror training camps in the US. He was then arrested in Pakistan days after 7/7 but allowed to go free within 24 hours. He was arrested again in Zambia whereupon British authorities said he was "not a priority". Terrorism expert John Loftus exposed Aswat as a double agent for MI6.

The official reluctance to act against these known extremists in the UK and the further protection of extremists abroad does not match the government's willingness to act pre-emptively to foil ludicrous plots of doubtful reality. Exposing these actions is key to revealing the fraud behind the war on terror.

Because Britain who made them. I like to call them terrorists not jihadists. I don't know who made this word "jihadists" because this word written in English the same Arabic spelling and writing "مجاهد" and it's not bad word at all and don't mean terrorists. It's well known that USA and Britain protecting the terrorists and support them, the article said that this four men belong to Al-Qaeda, you just need to found who formed and supporting them.

I know, I know - that's what the article was pointing out. It's an old story by now but yes, Al-Qeada is a creation of the west.
