“The Problem With Britain Is that Its Law Is Not the Law Sent Down by Allah”
Sheikh Omar Bakri: “This is true Salafism: Pure and complete religious preaching, and we only brandish our weapons against those who fight us. If we are fought and prevented from calling people to join Islam, a right that everybody has... You call this ‘freedom of expression,’ but I call it a religious duty to preach for the sake of Allah. If I am prevented from performing this duty, I must either defend myself or emigrate. They prevented me from doing this in Britain, so I emigrated to Lebanon.”
Interviewer: “What is your problem with the British? We all know that you left before they decided you would not be allowed to return, and revoked your British citizenship, even though your family still has citizenship.”
Bakri: “The problem with Britain is that its law is not the law sent down by Allah.”

“WE’LL KILL SIR PAUL IF HE PLAYS ISRAEL”
Sunday September 14,2008
By Dennis Rice
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “SIR Paul McCartney has been threatened that he will be the target of suicide bombers unless he abandons plans to play his first concert in Israel.
Self-styled preacher of hate Omar Bakri claimed the former Beatle’s decision to take part in the Jewish state’s 60th anniversary celebrations had made him an enemy of all Muslims.
Sources said Sir Paul was shocked but refused to be intimidated.
In an interview with Israeli media yesterday he said: “I was approached by different groups and political bodies who asked me not to come here. I refused. I do what I think and I have many friends who support Israel.””
