Blair announces that Hizb ul Tahrir and Al-Muhajiroun are to be banned in UK.
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
hizb-tahrir is composed of idiots but i thought they were non violent idiots?
anyway let's see if that mossad asset Bakri gets caught and put behind bars.. times like these i wish there were a Muslim elite force which would just assasinate such agents who exist only to bring a bad name to Muslims. that'd teach the intelligence agencies not to create such bogus Mullahs.

Im glad he’s taken his head out of Bush’s arse long enough to do something positive for a change, here’s hoping he keeps it out! :k:

U.K. Institutes New Deportation Measures
LONDON - Foreigners who preach hatred, sponsor violence or belong to extremist groups could be deported from Britain under strict new measures that Prime Minister Tony Blair announced Friday, nearly a month after suicide bombers killed 52 people on London’s transit system.
Membership in extremist Islamic groups such as Hizb-ut-Tahrir would become a crime under the new measures. The group, which advocates the creation of an Islamic state in Central Asia, already is outlawed in several countries.
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
Banning HT is the stupidest thing he could have done...i have never known a group denounce violence soo much yet get ignored and get called terrorist anyway.
i have no fondness for them...many muslims in the UK dont but banning a vocal groups just implies if you speak up your gonna be banned.
al majarooon on the other hand - a splinter group of HT i think - always preached violence and the brit govt did nothing to stop them. Now they ban them when the group if effectly defunk...it doesnt exsit in real terms as a group/party etc.
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
they prolly banned almahajiroon cuz the cover up was as good as down.. everyone knows Bakri is/was an intelligence asset.
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
its messed up…I remember watching these guys a few years ago promoting ‘magnficent 19’ rubbish about the 9/11 guys not to mention the fact about 4-7 of the 19 are alive and kicking]
and the brit govt did NOTHING, i remember i think it was this group or another saying to people and giving leaflets saying ‘kill jews’ and the brit govt did NOTHING.
Now they cry like babies and ban this group when its already dead? what morons.
this is purely for the camaras. The move has no substance at all, it means nothing because they banned nothing in realilty…only made first moves towards a police state

What will happen to a good half of the GupShup World/Religion posters!
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
Ak47 must be devastated 
PakAbroad, HT was banned in Pakistan quite a while ago, and their top leaders went into hiding.
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
HT is banned in loads of places - even in Uzbekistan - like anyone cares where that is and that they banned a group no one cares about [unless you TBlair]
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
This was expected, I for one support these steps but wud urge caution when dealing with matters related to human rights and civil liberties
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
Not as devasted as you would be when junoon come out of the closet…
Re: Blair vows hard line on fanatics
Just a thought but surely banning groups is not a good idea...i would think you would not want to send a group underground because surely then their activities become harder to monitor...at least by keeping them legal you know what the deal is...
Also i know that one of the issues that people had with the Hizb...some of the idiots anyway is that they were meaningless because the British government had not taken action against them...by banning them they are being given clout...lol i remember they said they were close to Khilafah in Pakistan because Musharraff banned them...its just going to make them seem like a threat to the establishment and will make young, vulnerable militants think they are actually effective which isnt a bad thing i suppose...it'l keep them away from actual dangerous groups...but still iv never understood the need to ban a group...its good to keep your enemies close not let them hide...
