Anti-Terror Police Raid London Mosque (Finsbury park)
BBC News ^ | 01/20/2003

Posted on 01/19/2003 7:25:24 PM PST by HennepinPrisoner

Police have raided Finsbury Park mosque in north London, arresting a number of people. The mosque has attracted controversy over its connection with radical Muslim cleric Abu Hamza.

Mr Hamza, who preaches at the mosque, faces exclusion as an agent of the North London Central Mosque trust because of "inflammatory and highly political" speeches at prayers.

Scotland Yard said the raid was carried out at 0200 GMT on Monday by police officers with search warrants issued under the Terrorism Act 2000.

More soon...

Good to see that, despite the machinations of the left, attention is finally being delivered to where it belongs.

Good, it's a start. Some mosques might be hiding much more than just terrorists in Iraq........

But Mr Blunkett, interviewed on BBC Radio yesterday, said anti-terrorist agencies had been authorised "to take whatever steps necessary, controversial or otherwise, without fear or favour, to take action to protect us". He added: "They will be taking that action in the weeks ahead very clearly indeed."

President Bush are you listening? President Bush, President Bush?

Fox News just reported that a major bust in the war on terrorism has occured in the raid on the Finsbury Park Mosque. We'll see if this makes the anti-war traitors look even dumber.

Police have raided Finsbury Park mosque in north London all North American mosques, arresting a number hundreds of people terrorists.

The president couldn't trust the fbi, still rife with Klinton traitors, so he sent (non-homosexual Scoutmaster) Boy Scouts.

Could it that it took the killing of a bobby to make it politically correct enough for the authorities to raid this British nerve center for Jihad?

I'm afraid so....the timing is just too coincidental.

"To the best of my knowledge internment has not taken place in the UK since WWII."

I think they might have had it in Ulster a few years ago, it was under some "emergency provision" not unlike martial law.
