Muslim fanatics sparked anger today after plastering Birmingham bus stops with sickening posters showing the destruction of the Twin Towers.
The radical Al Muhajiroun group, headed by the controversial London-based Sheik Omar Bakri Mohammed, has put up the posters in the Saltley area. They show a graphic image of one of the World Trade Centre towers on fire with a jet about to smash into the second tower.
Above, in a parody of the famous Bonfire night poem, are the words 'Re-member, remember the 11th of September'. The posters advertise a three-hour conference called 'September the 11th 2001 - A Towering Day in History'.
It is due to be held in central London next Wednesday on the first anniversary of the terrorist atrocities.
But devout Muslim groups in the city were today quick to condemn the conference, claiming it would be nothing more than a celebration of the attacks on New York and Washington.
Fundamental Muslim leader Abu Khadeejah, who last week staged the Salafi Islamic event in Birmingham, said: "The Al Muhajiroun conference will be about rejoicing and praising what took place on September 11.
"Al Muhajiroun are an extreme minority that feed on people with little knowledge of Islam and who feel alienated from society as a whole.
"To them it is all about spreading hate and destruction."
Coun John Lines (Con, Bartley Green) said: "I think these posters incite racial hatred. What this group are saying is fascist. These people should be drummed out of Birmingham along with their posters."
But Al Muhajiroun leader Omar Bakri Mohammed told the Evening Mail the conference would be a peaceful event to discuss why September 11 took place.
"I condemn all sorts of violence, but we need to take lessons from what happened and not keep mourning," he said.
"There may be people at the conference who feel that September 11 was justifiable, but it will be about learning from what happened and trying to find ways of moving forward together."
The 44-year-old Syrian-born 'sheik' has, however, openly backed bin Laden's philosophy in recent months.
Praise Allah and the Religion of Peace.
Easy for him to say. While most of us (I say "most" because the hate-America bedwetting liberals will not be included) mourn next week over a vile and hateful act, others (the perpetrators and their ilk) will be gloating.
There is no delicate or PC way to put this: I hope they all burn eternally in Hell.
And are provided with complimentary transportation there very, very soon...
Bartley Green is correct. The quicker you get rid of these people the better. Send them to France.
I'm ready for some serious retribution to be dished out. Soon.
This isn't being talked about in the lamestream press, but there are a lot of people who think the same out here in red-zone flyover country.
LOL!
You may have the germ of an idea here...
Perhaps we should begin by dropping any opposition to a 'homeland' for this flavor or that of moslemaniacs...
Help them pack and move there, in fact.
Then, when they're all settled and comfy, carpet-bomb the bastards to allah.
Which is to say, to Hell.
I guess they'll be rejoicing the end of the Taliban,the inevitable extinction of Al-Quida and the almost certain death of Bin-Laden. Well good for them! I will be too.
These dimwits don't even realize how 9/11 showed the Islamists has completely and totally parasitical on the rest of the world, mostly America.
Here's a list of things they can't do:
Build the towers.
Build the airplanes.
Train themselves to fly the airplanes.
They have contributed nothing to the world for 500 years. If they totally disappeared, the world wouldn't notice. The world misses the towers. The world would be a much worse place without America, but a better place without the Islamofascists.
Destruction is easy. It's building something that is hard. The normal state of humanity is to live in rubble. Creating a society that could build those towers and those airplanes has happened once in human history and is the hardest thing in the world. We'll still be here with new towers and a new Pentagon, when the Islamofascists are dust.
Personally, my mourning has not stopped since last September.
Everytime I see a clip of the towers burning, I hear the footsteps of the fireman going up when everyone else was coming down. I hear the cries of those trapped above the inferno. I imagine those final phone calls to cherished ones.
Never Forget!!! BTW When I first started reading this article, I thought they meant Birmingham, Alabama. Even terrorists ain't that stupid!!
Then...........they'll all be together in the same place at the same time............................................................
They have.
