Pour the champaigne: Omar Bakri finally arrested

Omar Bakri has been living in Britian for 20 years now as a refuge after Saudi declared him to be an "islamic extremist"- imagine how bad you have to be for that to happen- and kicked him out of Saudi. The fact that he wasn't arrested for all of those years of hate incitement and support for terrorism was pissing me off, and the fact that he came under fire finally after the London bombings is the one good thing I consider to ever come out of this tragic event. Altough to be fair ,the fact that he didn't keep his mouth shut after it either and calling the 7/7 bombers the "fabolous four" , kind of helped. Omar Bakri sparked outrage last week when he said he would not inform police if he knew Muslims were planning a bomb attack on a train in Britain and supported Muslims who attacked British troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. So faced with the threat of going to jail for hate-incitement, our boy Bakri had to escape London and went to Lebanon, after overstaying his welcome and abusing the kindness of people who took him into their country, which is something that I am kind of glad about. And i am not the only one who thinks so it seems: Omar Bakri's departure, however, was welcomed by Sir Iqbal Sacranie, secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain. "There can be a bit of a celebration. That is something which I think will bring a bit of real joy and happiness to the community," he said. Well, Sir Iqbal, I am happy to report that the good news just keeps on coming, and by good news I mean bad news for Bakri: They arrested him in Lebanon. Details are shaky for now, but i am guessing the lebanese were like : "That asshole is coming here? Like we need anymore people like that? Screw that. Arrest his ass!" Details on the whole thing seem shaky, but one thing is certain: he is under arrest. Personally I am glad they arrested him, and I hope they are able to charge him with something, anything, as long as they lock his crazy ass up. That man had it coming for a while now, and i am kind of glad that his Karma is catching up tp him.

SM, while I think getting putting hate inciting extremist behind bars is a brilliant idea, Bakri got arrested in Beirut only because he is originally Syrian ( despite his recent Lebanese passport). I know the Lebanese and how their mind works . Still as DNA said above ..NO comment ;)

"....has been living in Britian for 20 years now as a refuge after Saudi declared him to be an "islamic extremist"- imagine how bad you have to be for that to happen- and kicked him out of Saudi..."

That's one of the funniest things I ever read. I've been laughing so hard, for so long, that my wife just came in and looked at me like I'm a mental case.

That's like being kicked out of Hell for being too devlish....

I see everybody is getting spam comments these days.

Bakri is funny as hell. He is so damned transparent but he keeps acting like he is "just tending to the flock".

What a joke!

I caught his little interview the other day. He says he is not inciting violence and terrorism when he preaches that Muslims should hate anyone that is not Muslim and should take up Jihad, he is only teaching his religion.

That's the kind of thing that gives Islam a bad name. Right up there with that quack Philips and the other jack leg that heads the pretend Christian church which is a front for white supremists. Nobody is fooled except the fools that follow them.
