- A recent BBC
poll found that 45% of British Muslims believe extremist clerics who
preach violence against the West are not "out of touch"
with mainstream Muslim opinion.
- "Allah
said very clearly in the Koran 'Don't feel sorry for the
non-Muslims.' So as an adult non-Muslim... if he dies in a state of
disbelief then he is going to go to the hellfire... so I'm not going
to feel sorry for non-Muslims." — Anjem Choudary.
- "Under
the Shari'ah, the false Gods that people worship instead of Allah
will be removed, like democracy, freedom, liberalism, secularism
etc." — Anjem Choudary.
- "We are
Muslims first and Muslim last. Passports are no more than travel
documents. If you are born in a barn that doesn't make you a
horse!!" — Anjem Choudary.
- Choudary
urged his followers to quit their jobs and claim unemployment
benefits so that they could have more time to plot holy war against
non-Muslims. He said Muslims are entitled to welfare payments
because they are a form of jizya, a tax imposed on
non-Muslims in countries run by Muslims... as a reminder that
non-Muslims are permanently inferior and subservient to Muslims.
- Choudary says
he is not afraid of going to prison, which he describes as a fertile
ground for gaining more converts to Islam. "If they arrest me
and put me in prison..." he warned, "I will radicalize
everyone in prison."

of the murderers of British solider Lee Rigby (left) as a
"martyr" and said Rigby would "burn in hellfire" as
a non-Muslim.

Anjem Choudary, one of the most outspoken and provocative Islamists
in Britain today, has been remanded in custody, charged with the
terrorism offense of encouraging people to join the Islamic State.
The charge is related to Choudary sending messages to his nearly
33,000 followers on Twitter, allegedly encouraging them to join the
Islamic State -- the radical Sunni Islamist group that has taken control
over large parts of Syria and Iraq, and has threatened to attack targets
in Europe and North America.
The effort to prosecute Choudary -- well known for his relentless
efforts to implement Islamic Sharia law in the UK -- indicates that the
British government intends to follow through on its recent pledge to
crack down on radical Islam in the country.

- The dramatic
end of "Division 30" has shown that there are both U.S.
and Turkish human (and military) intelligence weaknesses regarding
the war zone.
- Without a
credible ground operation (and scores of fallen soldiers), jihadists
cannot be seriously fought.
- The obsession
of Turkey's leaders with Assad causes strategic blindness and may
further weaken an already difficult allied war on the jihadists.

Jihadists of the al-Qaeda-affiliated al-Nusra Front
(shown parading above) have killed, captured or absorbed many rebel
fighters in Syria that were trained and equipped by the U.S. and
Turkey.

"3,000 Mossad agents on our border," was a headline July 1
on Yeni Akit, an Islamist Turkish daily that staunchly supports
Turkey's President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and his political endeavors.
The newspaper attributed its story to a Turkish "intelligence
report," which it said it had accessed. The newspaper also claimed
that the "intelligence report" on which it based its story had
been presented to "top state officials."
Most likely a fabrication; not even a bad joke; not really funny,
one should brush off the story. But across Turkey's war-torn, 900-km
border with Syria, there are real bad jokes and they are not at all
funny.
