HATE CLERIC BAKRI RAGES AGAINST QATADA'S DEPORTATION

7/12

Radical cleric Abu Qatada's deportation has placed Britain at risk from furious Muslims who 'never

forget', hate preacher Omar Bakri warned today.

Bakri, who himself is barred from Britain, said Qatada's hardline supporters will blame ordinary UK

citizens if he comes to any harm in Jordan where he's currently being held on terror charges.

And he claimed the deportation was a 'violation of Qatada's human rights'.

Speaking from his Beirut bolthole, Bakri raged: 'Because of foreign policy Muslims see no difference

between the British Government and the British people now.'Muslims will hold the British people responsible for whatever happens to him. They never forget and

in the future they will come face-to-face.'

"Mrs May had been criticised by some Conservative MPs for deferring to European Court judgments." She has to, under our national

law, for as long as the UK remains signed up to Article 46(1) of the Convention. That's the part which says: "The High Contracting

Parties undertake to abide by the final judgment of the Court in any case to which they are parties.". The answer - derogate from that

Article 46(1), so that the UK is no longer bound by any of the Strasbourg judgments.

Which part of "suspect" doesn't she understand? We could all be SUSPECTS one day or other, even Ms May. - Robert , London,

It serves the Elites purpose to have Bogeymen, at the end of the day The European Courts overrule the UK and the Judges at those

Courts are anti British.

More media splash about TERRORISM .... we have had no TERRORISM in this country since the IRA, even then most of the bombs

were put in place by our own government . - Robbie, London, United Kingdom, 9/7/2013 11:25 +++ Having served with the British

Army and seen active service in Belfast on 4 occasions during the 70's I view your statements with the contempt they deserve. I can

assure you that terrorism was RIFE in both NI and the UK during this time and later so where you get your delusional views from is

beyond me, the government may have done some lousy things in their time but to even suggest they have planted bombs is

ludicrous; maybe in your world Maggie Thatcher planted the Brighton Bombs! I suggest before you comment again you think, its

better to keep quiet and be viewed a fool then open your mouth and PROVE the fact! Idiot!

does that include tony bliar and george bush and anyone else whom is intent on taking away the freedom and liberties of the

people? those whom share the same despotic totalitarian ideologies? in a free democracy the people are the power and the state,

the state represent public opinion. unfortunately we have a secret empire campaign going on. all roads still lead to rome.
