Radical past of top Whitehall Islamic aide Dipesh Gadher DISTURBING details have emerged about the radical background of the chief adviser on Islamic affairs at the Foreign Office.
Mockbul Ali, a 26-year-old civil servant, was involved in a Muslim student group that has published material supporting Palestinian female suicide bombers.
The Union of Muslim Students (UMS), which has been repeatedly praised by ministers as a paragon of moderate Islam, also carried articles in its newspaper by Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, a Qatar-based preacher banned from entering America.

I don't think any oath of loyalty he swore to an infidel queen will be any guarantee of his reliability....
Radical past of top Whitehall Islamic aide
This is right up there with our hiring radical imams as prison chaplains where they recruit the inmates to anti-American terrorism.
This is so stupid.
------
A perfect example of a byproduct of the mental disease called LIBERALISM.
"This is right up there with our hiring radical imams as prison chaplains where they recruit the inmates to anti-American terrorism."
Or letting CAIR define policy.
Unfortunately what started out as plain Liberalism in this country has now become a twisted sense of logic that defys any proper reasoning.
Political correctness is nothing else other than an excuse for spinelessness to avoid confrontation and this is where it gets dangerous for all of us.
When I hear and read about this kind of stupidity over here I sometimes have to ask whether normal people are now in the minority. If so then Britain is doomed!

If that were true, why are the PC brigade so confrontational when it comes to rooting out those who would dare challenge the liberal orthodoxy and commit speechcrime?
Good point, I guess they know the people who challenge their phony liberalism won't bite back with avengeance. The PC brigade wouldn't dare challenge the very anti-liberal politics of muslims because they'd be afraid of the consequences. Whats needed here is a grass roots revolution to overthrow the PC brigade once and for all.
In Britain we have a long history stretching right back to the formation of Empire and before that of co-opting people from the other side those deemed hostile or hostile and neutral.
It gives us a better understanding of the other side and it keeps lines of communication open and it worked well in all our past terrorist wars.
I would understand your point if he was a REFORMED Radical. But he is not, he is an unrepentent radical who sympathises with terrorists.
They say it takes a thief to catch a thief, but unless the thief in question is a reformed thief, why would he be working for the thief takers if it is against his interests to do so?
That is a sticking point if you sympathises with a cause does that mean you sympathise with the terrorist.
Also he is not part of the thief taking operation, he is part of the FO that is responsible for dealing with the Muslim community here and abroad.
The Muslim nations we are dealing with do not agree with the terrorists but do agree with the cause that much of the terrorist acts are based upon especially where Israel and Palestine are concerned.
That is why this department was set up.
Indeed we do, you're correct and this was very much the case when we were trying to defeat the IRA, the operations were all very much undercover and about trusting informants. However, I disagree when you say it's nothing to do with liberalism and PC, employment laws and equal opportunities have skewed the boundarys of intelligent selection to the point where so called positive discrimination has flourished and been heavily abused by money grabbing lawyers willing to pounce on the first disguntled muslim he/she can find who had trouble getting a job.
Cynics may say the velvet glove.
And Intelligence selection and recruitment is a lot more rigorous and professional that before.
BTW what part of England are you from, I am a London lad East End, living in Birmingham but being moved to Manchester
East London (Bethnal Green) originally, moved down to near Southend-on-Sea in the late Seventies as a young lad.
Southend is a pretty good especially the seafront area with the Adventure Island park, ironically it's become very popular for folk to retire down here in the last few years as well, I guess it must be a nostalgic yearning for the old days when people had annual company excursions from London to come here.
I was very young when I moved down to SOS properly not even a teenager just 11, I guess in my last post I should have put child instead of young lad, that would have made it clearer.
I'm 37 now (birthday approaching this month) but Victoria Park hasn't been erased from my memory as I played there with several kids from Ayrton Gould House which is just off Roman Road (This probably around 1975 - 77 era). The last of my family left Ayrton Gould House in 1995 and I still have an uncle living down the botton of Cyprus Street which is just off Bonner Street.
Very hard to believe how it's all changed though!
Do you remember Kings Road North of Victoria Park of Hackeney road, old factory now loft apartments going for about £250,000 its becoming very yuppfied now
I don't honestly remember Kings Road, but I do remember more of the old landmarks round the area very well like the Old Bethnal Green museum and the Bee Hive pub.
Not to mention the Pie & Mash shop, I think there's still one down Roman Road actually!!
Talking of yuppified areas Cyprus Street is pretty expensive still..
PC was invented by libs for the sole purpose of stifling debate on where 40-60 years of Marxism-sold-by-the-shotglass statism has wrought on the fabric of western society. You'd think if radical leftism is superior to conservatism, they'd welcome debate, since the truth will withstand any scrutiny...
