A woman has been charged with encouraging terrorism on Twitter, police have said.

Alaa Abdullah Esayed, 22, of Kennington, south London, will appear before Westminster Magistrates' Court on December 10.

She has been charged with two offences under the Terrorism Act - encouraging terrorism, and the dissemination of terrorist publications and released on bail.

Police said one of the charges related to posts on Esayed's Twitter account, along with photographs and video links.

The charge states "she intended, or was reckless as to whether, members of the public would be directly or indirectly encouraged or otherwise induced by the statement to commit, prepare or instigate acts of terrorism or convention offences".

The media should be sued for damages.

Wonder if this Londoner was a convert? The two Black Panthers caught trying to blow up the Arch and kill the prosecutor both had Muslim names that were originally used in the stories, but now the press seems to be sanitizing the connection.

First amendment protection.

However, anyone that told them to riot and loot (sharpton, obama, holder, the step-father). I’d be filing lawsuits now. Against the governor, and the city as well. Police didn’t protect anything. Nat guard stood around and watched.

Why is Tawana Sharpton less 1st amendment protected than Pravda media? Incitement to riot is incitement to riot, period.

Not sure how the media incited a riot. I know I didn’t hear any media say “Burn this mother-f(@#U$ down”.
