British Islamist Anjem Choudary in Interview on Bin Laden's Death: Bin Laden 'Is the First... of a Whole New Generation... Who Believe Very Firmly In Their Hearts in the Concept Of Jihad' – And Obama Is 'At the Head of the Camp Of Disbelief'."

This Jihad Will Not Begin and End with Sheikh Osama Bin Laden; Every Mother Will Want To Give Birth Now To a Sheikh Osama Bin Laden"




(Memri).Interviewer: "Everybody knows Osama bin Laden's time as an operational figure had passed. I think that's a reasonable thing to say. To what extent did he retain his importance as a current motivating figure, or had he been in some way superseded by someone like Anwar Al-Awlaki or other religious figures. I'll refer to you, Anjem – how do you see his influence?"
Choudary: "You can see very well that when Sheikh Osama bin Laden issued a statement, the whole of the world would listen to that statement. It would be played on every single media channel. In fact the leaders of the Western and the Eastern world would have to make a comment. Now that he's passed away, his mere death has meant that all leaders, all people who are important politically, must have their say on his death despite the fact that he was in hiding and he was in fact at the back of the front – meaning there were many people in the front line, in Tora Bora, in Afghanistan and Iraq, who are actually doing the fighting, but he is such an important figure that his videos, his statements resound all around the world and people continue to play them. They hang on his every word.
"So he is someone phenomenally important to the struggle. But then again, we can say the same thing about Sheikh Abu Mus'ab Al-Zarqawi, and as well about Abd Al-Aziz Al-Muqrin, Abu-Hajer, who are former leaders of the jihad on various fronts, so he would be one of many people who have been in the struggle and that have passed away, and other generations have come forward. I do believe that in terms of Al-Qaeda, he is the first generation, and behind him are second, third, fourth, and fifth generations. This struggle to liberate Muslim land is only beginning. I think the Americans have tasted what it means to be at war with Islam and Muslims with leaders like Sheikh Osama bin Laden [unclear] left behind, and the people who will now come forward, I think, will be the biggest nightmare for America because no longer would they have this... if you like... running roughshod over the Muslims and dictating to them, because now the Muslims have a point to prove – that this jihad will not begin and end with Sheikh Osama bin Laden.
"Every mother will want to give birth now to a Sheikh Osama bin Laden so he can be on the front line as well like this great man and people can remember them for years to come."Man No. 4: "Of course. I mean, someone who stands up against injustice and oppression... obviously, everyone is going to come towards him, and everyone is going to follow him, and do what he did. "At the end of the day, if you have evil, you will always have someone good to fight against that evil. Allah – He would never put someone evil on this earth to take over the whole earth. He will always put someone to stand against that evil person, and we see that He was [unclear] with Sheikh Osama bin Laden, and there will be more coming after him."Hmmmm........“Violence does not build up the kingdom of God, the kingdom of humanity. On the contrary, it is a favorite instrument of the Antichrist, however idealistic its religious motivation may be,” Pope Benedict XVI .Read the full story here.

Pastorius,

Anjem Choudary's views are unfortunately far more mainstream, even among than most people are willing to admit. His extreme views may not be how a majority of British Muslims think, unfortunately large numbers of them do agree with him. It is not some very tiny minority. If only it were.

Its kind of hard to justify killing someone for what is at worst at the moment, sedition, however, they could lock him up. That said, his willingness to express his shocking views may actually do more to wake people up than it will to threaten British sovereignty. Its the Jihadists, who are less honest that I'm really worried about.
