Dad is a coward, a hypocrite and he deserves to rot in jail [Abu Hamza]
Times online ^ | 27th July 06 | By Rajeev Syal

Dad is a coward, a hypocrite and he deserves to rot in jail By Rajeev Syal In an exclusive interview, Donna Traverso tells The Times about the man who tore her family apart

SHE knew him simply as Dad, a kindly presence in her life who would tell her that she was “his little girl” as she nestled in his muscular arms. Now Donna Traverso, 25, despises her former stepfather Abu Hamza al-Masri for shattering her family and abandoning her at the age of 5.

In her first interview, she tells The Times how the Egyptian disappeared with her beloved little half-brother, Mohammed, and told him that his mother was dead. He tried to lure her away at the same time, she said.

She is convinced that he duped her mother, Valerie Fleming, into wrongly naming him on the birth certificate as Donna’s biological father because he was trying to gain the right to stay in Britain.

Her words come on the eve of Abu Hamza’s latest bid for freedom. Tomorrow his lawyers will apply for leave to appeal against convictions for soliciting murder, inciting racial hatred and possessing offensive material.

Ms Traverso, now married with three children and living in Hertfordshire, said: “How dare he lecture ordinary working people about Western morals.

“He left me without saying goodbye, destroyed my family and told his own son that his mother was dead. He has not had the decency to try and explain why he left or why he took Mohammed. He is a coward and a hypocrite, and deserves to rot in jail.”

He is being looked after for free by Her Majesty.

There is much speculation that he was only arrested to stop his extradition to the USA. After all we haven't bothered with any other hate preachers.

I wish he were on a plane to you right now.

I wish he could be dropped out of such a plane halfway across the ocean, from about 42,000 feet.

In one speech cited in a British documentary film, Masri urged followers to get an infidel "and crush his head in your arms, so you can wring his throat. Forget wasting a bullet, cut them in half!"

He's such a sweetie.

Well, aparently he's got something in common with Kerry and Murtha :

The barely literate former Finsbury Park Mosque headliner makes a fetish of dressing in flowing Arabic robes and looking sinister, using a steel hook, rather than a lifelike prosthetics, for a hand.  He claims to have lost his eye and both hands fighting the Russians with the mujahudin in Afghanistan.  However, writing in Front Page Magazine last year, Farrukh Dhondy noted that the dates don’t gibe with photographs.  There are pictures of Hamza years after the Afghan Russian conflict with two hands and two eyes.  Dhondy speculated that Captain Claw could owe the loss of his eye and his hand to careless handling of a bomb he was making. ------- "Snatching Captain Claw," by Val MacQueen, FrontPageMagazine.com, 5/28/04

2006-07-24

Israel is attacking Hezbollah in Lebanon and the civilians are getting worried. Strangely, a large proportion of the Lebanese population turns out to be Danish (5,000 people), Swedish (6,000) or Canadian (30,000). Apparently lots of people, who have received asylum, are now on vacation in the very country from which they have ostensibly fled.

Luckily, the Danish embassy which was burned down in February is functioning again. But it turns out that one of these people with Danish passports Danes is none other than Ahmed Akkari - one of the lying imams, who travelled the Middle East with their fake Mohammed cartoons and thus were directly responsible for the embassy burnings.

Danes, Swedes lead evacuation race (CNN)

The Danes got a test run in crisis management earlier this year when newspaper cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad triggered violent protests against Danish embassies in Muslim countries.

One of the Danish Muslims who spearheaded the rallies against the prophet drawings, Lebanese-born Ahmad Akkari, was among those evacuated from Beirut on Thursday.

"My impression is that the transportation has been safe and that no one has been suffering," Akkari told Denmark's TV2 channel as he boarded a Greek ferry chartered by Denmark.


Ahmed Akkari has Danish citizenship since he only received a suspended sentence for violence in 2001. His wife and daughter are not Danish, but have now received a temporary residency permit.

So Akkari and his family are going to Denmark. This time Akkari is neither burning the Danish flag - nor trampling on it - but hiding behind it.

Valerie didn't know who her child's father really was?

Hey you want to live in some places around here - it's common. The problems associated with multiple sexual partners is causing serious concern not least with possible incest of future couplings of half brothers and sisters who have no idea they are related. (but no-one will say so because of PC). I know this as a fact from my time a vicar with the Marriage regulations.

"If the good Lord wanted me to remember the father he wouldn't get me so drunk on a Friday night" or something like that.

Having said that I doubt this refers to such a situation.

Who would have relations with this man? I don't get it. Why would any woman voluntarily spend a moment on this assuredly stinky human.

Do you think he paid her to list him as the father?

It's still weird. The young woman is here, so obviously her mother had a personal relationship with *somebody* at the relevant time!

I suspect the word 'duped' is a euphemism for 'coerced'.

I think this "Mohammed" he took is this Mohammed below, the convicted terrorist who was found working on the Tube in the UK:

London Underground is today accused of an appalling security blunder for allowing Abu Hamza's son to work on the network.
Mohammed Kamel Mostafa, 25, from Wembley - a convicted terrorist - was given a security pass and access to restricted areas.
He worked as a labourer at nights and weekends for a sub-contractor despite having spent three years in a Yemen jail for plotting to blow up British tourists. His father is serving seven years for inciting murder and racial hatred at London mosques. ------ "Terrorist who plotted to blow up Britons given pass to work on Tube ," The Daily Mail ^ | 31st October 2006

"I love Britain not terror, says son of Abu Hamza"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Mr Kamel said: “Me and my friend went to Yemen. Our intention was to do a course. The only reason I got in trouble was because there was a lot of media things happening with my dad.” He devoted the three years that he spent in prison to further study of the Koran and now plans to become a Muslim rap artist. “I haven’t got anything against anyone,” he said. “That’s my message — and peace.”"
