Hate cleric Bakri calls for Christmas 'ban'

'Christmas Day would be ideal for terror attack', he says

Hate preacher Omar Bakri, who is barred from Britain, is calling on Brits to boycott Christmas.
Using the internet to post a rant against the festive season, Bakri claims Christmas should be "completely forbidden".
In another chilling post the radical cleric said Christmas Day would be the perfect day to launch a terror attack on the UK.
He said: "To have Christmas tree, visit so-called Christmas Father - that is completely forbidden.
"Make sure you do not watch TV. Do not let them hear jingle bells. Do not send your children on Christmas trip."
Bakri's previous vile rants included his belief that the British public and the Government were responsible for the 7/7 London bombings.
In 2005 he was excluded by the then Home Secretary Charles Clarke from returning to Britain.
The move came after Bakri reportedly said he had left Britain for good and intended to set up home in the Lebanon.
He was duly arrested by Lebanese security forces.
Bakri, 46, was the London-based spiritual leader of the extremist group Al-Muhajiroun while claiming benefits from social services.
Although the group had supposedly disbanded, Prime Minister Tony Blair said that its successor organisation would be outlawed.
The Syrian-born preacher moved to the UK in 1985 after being deported from Saudi Arabia because of his membership of a banned group there.
In 1996 he created Al-Muhajiroun (The Eyes and Ears of the Muslims), which praised the 'Magnificent 19' hijackers after September 11.
In October 2004, he announced he was disbanding Al-Muhajiroun in the interests of "unity in the Muslim world".
But soon afterwards he led a demonstration outside the US Embassy in London in which protesters chanted the name of Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden and torched an American flag.
Bakri has seven children who were born in the UK and relied on benefits for the past 19 years.
He has been told he will almost certainly never be able to re-enter the UK, despite his wife and six of his children still living in north London. (on benefits)

This is typical of the snakes in our grass. We have been far too tolerant.

HANG THE SCUM!
No seriously, nip this in the bud for the cost of a length of rope and some timbers.

Well - he's spouting from his hidey-hole in the middle east, but they are welcome to him!

pfft....pay it the head it deserves


ignore him

"The Syrian-born preacher moved to the UK in 1985 after being deported from Saudi Arabia because of his membership of a banned group there".

It boggles the mind to think that an enlightened country such as the UK will ban rap artist Snoop Dog from coming to Britain to give a single concert because he was deemed to be an 'undesirable' but will allow religious extremists and terrorist sympathizers to stay permanently. I mean Christ, even the Saudis don't want this guy, what does that tell you?


At least they finally got rid of him.

He is merely scum. He talks big, but he is a frightened child in the process of wetting his pijamas in the eyes of the Lord.

Fun anti-racist fact for the day: Although muslims don't celebrate christmas as a traditional holiday, the events it celebrate they do actually agree on. Muslims see it as important due to it being the 'miraculous birth of the prophet Jesus to the virgin mary'. (Why catholics don't get excited about muslim buddies is beyond me. Both faiths see mary as a *very* important figure)

A very ignorant post. As anyone can see it has nothing at all to do with race. Obviously it is the person who made the post who is racist. And why on earth make such an ignorant comment on catholics and muslims, when so much inter-religion is involved on a daily basis at all levels, just as in the case of catholic - jewish relations, etc., etc.' Is the poster incapable of reading Padre's recent post 33 ? And of course, in Britain we have a great many muslim friends, heroes, and favourites. I would count myself as a frontrunner in such integration , and I am a fan of such close relationships. The only segregation here is that imposed by Islamist ideology.

And I can assure you that catholics get very excited indeed regarding those muslims who wish to harm them.

Only a plonker could find this thread 'Fun', and the quote in question is entirely inappropriate as a response to the thread.

I am appalled but not surprised.

oi del boy...how bout you reign your horses in before they ALL bolt.


i have NO idea what in my post above prompted you to such a MASSIVE over reaction.


what i was aiming at was the much over looking fact that Islam & Christianity share the same roots and to a certain degree have the same believes... ie: that the character you are quoting is a fool, with little understanding of his own supposed faith.


as with ANY religion, yes there are ignorant munters out there that will twist and pervert anything that will get them more followers or a bit of coin in the back pocket.


have i said ANYTHING at all to make you believe that i was supporting what this nutbar was saying? no? so, how about we treat each other with a little mutual respect and try and find a middle ground. my interest here is speaking for people who aren't here to defend themselves (or play devil advocate) but in saying that....i DONT defend the indefensible

now...if i can make a suggestion, next time, before you rail off at me as ignorant (or any other of the names you have slung at me in the past couple of days) how about you PM me and maybe i can clear it up for you. other seems to know what im getting at, but maybe i aren't making myself clear enough for you. im not saying we'll agree on anything, but if these last two reactions are anything to go by....im no where as bad as you seem to THINK i am

I think that's a very good idea as well.

Now all please try to stay civil in here and keep on topic from now on.
Thanks.
