She moved to the UK from France in search of a more “Islamic environment.” And what better place to find that than shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain, where she lives comfortably on the taxpayer dole, aka jizya, even though her husband was actually banned from entering the country?

The wife of an al-Qaeda linchpin who mentored the Charlie Hebdo murderers is living on benefits in Britain after deciding France was too strict.

Sylvie Beghal, a French citizen, lives rent-free in a four-bedroom house in Leicester having arrived with her children in search of a more “Islamic environment”. She is married to Djamel Beghal, a former London-based lieutenant of Abu Hamza, whose teachings may have inspired the Paris attacks.

It is thought that Amedy Coulibaly and his girlfriend, Hayat Boumeddiene, suspected of murdering a policewoman and the Jewish grocery store hostage-taking, were also mentored by Beghal.

He was alleged to have helped recruit Richard Reid, the shoebomber, and possibly Zacarias Moussaoui, the suspected 20th 9/11 hijacker, to al-Qaeda.

When detained, Beghal was returning to Paris from Afghanistan after meeting Abu Zubaydah, a senior al-Qaeda figure who allocated missions to terrorist cells.

He admitted plotting to destroy the US embassy in Paris in a suicide attack and having visited British mosques in the late 1990s, recruiting young men for jihad.

Yet speaking to a magazine in 2011, Mrs Beghal claimed her husband was innocent. She said the family moved to Iran after his Dubai arrest, before being forcibly repatriated to France in 2002.

Two years later, after her husband was jailed, she returned to Leicester….

That was the requirement in the US until the 60s.

Wasn't that change made by a "RAT Pack" lead by a Kennedy?

“The western world is committing suicide.” Yes, and with unfettered Islamic immigration, it is only slightly slower than welcoming all that are symptomatic for ebola.

FWIW.

I am somewhat rusty on the past event, even as a Canadian citizen. I did, as an expatriate from the UK, remember this. In 2006 the Israel-Hezbollah conflict escalated in the Lebanon. The British sent five warships to evacuate "British citizens". It was estimated between 10,000 and 12,000 persons were at risk.

About 4,000 were taken to safety, first to Cyprus. Most collecting pension payments from the UK. I presume as you mention Canada pays the same overseas payments. What a racket! I get a pension also from the UK. Ain't complaining, but it is $130 per month.

Aren’t you happy liberals. Not only are you actively importing your executioners, but you are paying them for it. Where the hell does this guilt come from! It sure isn’t in me.

Just checked on the woman Beghal, who wallows in easy living in the UK. Her husband Djamel Beghal, who was sentenced for plotting to blow up the US Embassy in Paris. He was given maximum of 10 years jail in March 2005.

Good Lord! He is nearly ready to be released.

So it goes.
