Muslims declare sovereignty over U.S., UK
Hear Islamic leaders in London: 'Queen Elizabeth, go to hell!'

Across town from the site of the recent attempted car-bomb attacks, several thousand Muslims gathered in front of the London Central Mosque to applaud fiery preachers prophesying the overthrow of the British government – a future vision that encompasses an Islamic takeover of the White House and the rule of the Quran over America.

"One day my dear Muslims," shouted Anjem Choudary, "Islam will govern Britain!"

Choudary was a co-founder of Al Muhajiroun, the now-banned group tied to suspects in the July 7, 2005, London transport bombings and a cheerleader of the 9/11 attacks.

"Democracy, hypocrisy," Choudary chanted as the crowd echoed him. "Tony Blair, terrorist! Tony Blair, murderer! Queen Elizabeth, go to hell!"

Listen to Anjem Choudary:

The Muslim leader's charge, along with interviews with protesters and a "literal foaming-at-the-mouth" diatribe by another speaker, were captured on tape June 22 by nationally syndicated talk radio host Rusty Humphries.

Humphries, who was in London with WND Jerusalem bureau chief Aaron Klein, recorded angry Muslim leader Abu Saif, who kept his voice at a fever pitch through declarations such as: "Brothers and sisters, make no mistake. Make no mistake. The British government, the queen, the MPs in this country, they are enemies to you, enemies to Allah and enemies to the Muslims."

A protester told Humphries Abu Saif is a member of the group Hizb ut-Tahrir, the Party of Liberation, which states its aim is to unify Muslims and establish the rule of Islamic law over the world. Group spokesman Taji Mustafa insisted to WND, however, Abu Saif is not a member. Hizb ut-Tahrir, which casts itself as "non-violent," also has denied testimony and British media reports charging its Cambridge cell tried recruit the Iraqi doctor now suspected of mounting the attack on Glasgow's airport June 30. The failed car-bomb assault followed two similar attempts in London the previous day.

Abu Saif spoke with disdain of Blair's appointment as a special envoy to the Middle East, issuing an apparent threat.

"Inshallah," meaning "Allah willing," he told the crowd, Blair will "go to the Middle East as an envoy, and he'll come back in a box. Inshallah. What box that is, we leave that up to you."

Humphries estimated nearly 3,000 Muslims were gathered in front of the mosque in north London June 22, after Friday prayers, to protest Queen Elizabeth's knighting of Indian author Salman Rushdie, the target of a death-sentence fatwa for "insulting" Islam's prophet Muhammad in his 1988 book "The Satanic Verses."

Listen to Abu Saif address protesters:

For Humphries, the response of the Muslims at Islam's largest house of worship in the UK was telling.

"Not one said, 'You're not speaking for me' or 'Not in my name.' They stood there and watched and applauded," he told WND.

Like the UK, Humphries said, the U.S. has three major vulnerabilities to patient, fundamentalist Muslims who believe their purpose for living in the West is to help fulfill Islamic prophecies: The loss of border control, the inability to say no and lack of assimilation.

"I feel like I'm Rusty Revere. I'm out there yelling the Muslims are coming, the Muslims are coming," he said. "But we don't want to hear it. We don't want to hurt people's feelings."

Humphries' interview with Abu Saif underscored the radically different vision many of Britain's citizens have for the country's future.

The Muslim leader said he does not believe in democracy and insists there is no such thing as freedom of religion, "because freedom is an absolute term."

"Are we to say that Muslims can fully practice religion in America," he asked in an attempt to explain. "Say, for instance, I was a Muslim in America. Could I call for the destruction of the American government and establishment of an Islamic state in America? No. So where is the freedom of religion? There is none."

Listen to interview with Abu Saif:

Humphries asked: "Do you call for that?"

"Of course," he replied, "we want Islam to be a source of governance for all of mankind. And we also believe that one day America will be ruled by Islam."

Abu Saif explained Islam, like Christianity, has a prophetic tradition.

"One of the prophecies of the message of Muhammad was the hour will never come, i.e., the last day – which you also believe in – will never come until a group of the Muslims … will rise and conquer the white house."

The reference, many Muslims believe today, is to America's symbol of executive power.

Islamic leaders in the U.S. largely have been careful to not assert publicly the Muslim belief that Islam ultimately will gain worldwide supremacy. As WND reported, Omar Ahmad, the founder of a prominent U.S.-based Islamic lobby group, denies a newspaper report that he told a group of Muslims in the San Francisco Bay area they are in America not to assimilate but to help bring about Islam's rule over the nation.

Like other protesters, Abu Saif presented a typical list of grievances Muslims have with the U.S. and Britain, such as the nations' part in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the wars in Afghanistan and Iran.

But the Islamic leader admitted he believes Jews and Christians will always hate Muslims, because Allah has said it is so.

"There's nothing we can do to be friends?" Humphries asked.

Abu Saif replied: "There is something you can do to be friends. You can become Muslim."

He also had a simple solution to the conflict in the Holy Land.

"We want the Jews to leave Israel, and to hand the whole of Israel, not just Gaza and the West Bank – the whole of Israel to the Muslims. Only then will the Muslims stop."

Hear Abu Saif's views on Israel:

'Politics of terror'

BBC-TV last week highlighted Hizb ut-Tahrir in a program called "Politics of Terror," noting "the attempted terrorist attacks on London and Glasgow have once again focused attention on the rise of political Islam."

If al-Qaida is to be defeated, the narrator said, "the key battlefield is in the realm of ideas. Today's would-be suicide bombers are almost invariably yesterday's campaigners for political Islam."

During the Prime Minister's Questions session in Parliament Wednesday, opposition leader David Cameron left the new premier, Gordon Brown, stammering after demanding to know why the government had not banned Hizb ut-Tahrir after promising to do so two years ago.

Brown replied: "Of course in all these details – and I have had to deal with this in the Treasury, when we're dealing with terrorist finance – you have to have evidence to do so."

The answer was met by a chorus of jeers from MPs.

Cameron responded: "The prime minister said we need evidence to ban Hizb ut-Tahrir. This organization said, and I quote, 'Jews should be killed wherever they are found.' What more evidence do we need before we ban this organization? It is poisoning the minds of young people. Two years ago the government said it should be banned. I ask again, when will this be done?"

Brown seemed even more hesitant this time.

"We can ban it under the Prevention of Terrorism Act, and, of course, of course, of course ... I think the leader of the opposition forgets I've been at this job for five days ... ," he said, as jeers once again filled the chamber.

Brown already, in fact, has issued a ban of another kind – prohibiting his ministers from using the word 'Muslim' in connection with the worldwide terrorism threat. He also has instructed his team to drop the phrase "war on terror," Britain's Daily Express reported.

The paper says the "shake-up is part of a fresh attempt to improve community relations and avoid offending Muslims, adopting a more 'consensual' tone than existed under Tony Blair."

The New York Times reported last week many Britons were happy with Brown's tempered approach to the foiled terrorist attacks just days after he succeeded Blair.

Brown, wrote London-based reporter Alan Cowell, "played down the threat, treating the episodes as a crime rather than a threat to civilization. Yet, his minimalist approach seemed to strike a reassuring chord with Britons, many of whom had expressed fatigue with Mr. Blair's apocalyptic view of terrorism."

Hear protesters call for damnation of queen:

Sorry, I know that was a long one, and I know that I'm too lazy to just link to the audio.

I listen to Rusty Humphries on a regular basis, and I remember hearing these clips on the air and chills running down my spine. Apparently, when it comes to freedom of religion, there is none. Why? Because if there was, then America would have no problem with Islam destroying the White House.

This is also a little reminder for you guys to donate so that we can have a chatterbox subforum so that we can actually talk like real people and not b***h at each other for having different viewpoints.

I'm sorry but can I just say... America doesn't let Islam burn down the White House NOT because of religion, but because of principle... who the hell has the right to burn down your home for example? I wouldn't care if they were a Jew and they tried that - its not religion based that we don't want them to. It isn't even religious based for them, what has religion got to do with politics!? Those are two seperate things yet we keep drawing them close together because there is always that culture clash that needs the law to settle things >_< I say these extremists are crazy and should leave us alone. I also think that Bush should get out of Iraq and if he's got a problem with the peace there then he should stop giving a s**t and let them kill themselves, after all its what they want, its what they're telling us. Obviously we know Bush isn't there for peace but for money and popularity. I feel sorry for the American population who have to put up with his b.s, please for the sake of your own and the rest of the worlds sanity vote for a different president this time.

Also, these people are seriously ******** up, these extremists and fundamentalists don't know what they're talking about. If they don't like the Western countries they live in, be it the U.K, America or Australia, then what the hell are they doing here trying to change OUR ways, if they don't like it here then they should go back to wherever the hell they came from. Why should we be paying to support these idiots when they clearly don't want to be here.

We don't need peace we need common sense. People can follow whatever faith they like, but they shouldn't be protesting and complaining and trying to push our society into something that would suit their one and only religion. They come to our countries with a choice, no one forced them to come. We shouldn't have to change our ways for them, psh "overthrowing the british government"? They're a minority and they'll never be able to do that, they talk big and its ridiculous.

For example, living in Australia, I know that we are multicultural society, yet I can't stand it when some Muslim extremist appears on tv telling us that the rest of us are a problem, one example was that apparently the Muslim community in Sydney had a problem with a Christmas tree being put up in the square, asking that it be taken down because it is insulting to their culture. A second and even more outragous example was when the Sheik "...likening scantily dressed women to uncovered meat and saying they're responsible for sexual attacks." (http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/i-wont-quit-says-sheik/2006/10/27/1161749284120.html) Meaning women who "don't wear enough" are to blame themselves if they are raped. I saw this Sheik talk about this topic on tv, adding that they are like raw meat on the street for cats to eat, he shouldn't be telling us what to do, this isn't his country to run and this isn't some society he can control, were not as crazy as he is. If he can't keep it in his pants thats his problem not the woman's, in this country we have freedom and a woman can walk on the street almost naked if she liked and theres nothing he can do about it. Of course I realise that sometimes people can dress way too unmodestly but its still no excuse for rape.

I know that not all Muslims are like this, of course, its just the extremists and fundamentalists who give society this image and drive me mad >_<

Oh, religion. How you get us into yet another huge mess.

I wish that I could go back to when the Bible, the Q'uran and all other "holy texts" were written, and just remove the giant references to destroying those of another faith. It is such a sign of humanity that we cannot get along and live peacefully side by side. It is such a shame that rather than being taught as society to accept and tolerate others, we instead taught ourselves that only one mindset is correct, and no others will work. Muslim extremists are the epitome of the evil religion does, and it goes to show all too well how one idea that had noble beginnings can be bastardized and corrupted by those later in the line.

Take Christianity: It started as such a wonderful idea. Love thy neighbour, be good to yourself and your fellow man. Do not murder, do not steal. Then some asshats decided to write the bible and put in references that follow their ideas about the world. Women are property. Kill gentials. Do not accept that which isn't the same as you.

Muslim extremists scare the living s**t out of me, even sitting on the other side of the world, temporarily safe. And why? Because they have a faith that teaches if they won't be on your side, take them all down with you. They teach such an easy acceptance of murder and call it glorious. They say killing yourself along with 30 others on a crowded train honorable. And the people in this faith believe every word of it.

Canada has a fair sized Muslim population, I even grew up with my two best friends being Muslim. I'm glad that the situation in Canada is nowhere even close to that of the situation in England and the rest of the UK. But, even once the Muslim community in the UK was small and peacable. Now they are no longer so small and peacable. They flourished and leaders of the faith began to teach hate, rather than love. And now, the UK has an enormous problem on its hands.

Vanity Fair said it best in their June 2007 issue:

"Britain is the country of warm beer and cricket...Not a place of arms for morbid cults."

Well, I haven't been online much recently. I'm addicted to Starcraft and Warcraft III. Not to mention this is just my favorite kind of topic; I love stirring up controversy with my absolutely brutal methods.

To elaborate on my earlier point: I recognize that religion does much good for many individuals. However, I intend to prove that religion damages us as a race. Many civil rights advancements were fought against by the church. Desegregation, women's rights, and many others. Science? The Christian Church opposed the heliocentric view and evolution in addition to many smaller ideas. Stem cell research, a research vital to saving or improving the lives of many otherwise useful humans, is hindered by the Judeo-Christian bias in our society. Religion helps the individual and destroys the group. Not to mention the religious believe that we are simply auditioning for the next life while the atheists realize that this is all we have and live life for every second (there are exceptions like the nihilists, but most of us atheists live for every moment.)

Haha, I'd be an hypocrite if I said I hated extremists. As The Tragic Mime will attest to, I'm very much an extremist as well in my anti-theist manner.

And the topic is about Islam, at the moment, but you've got your issues with all Abrahamic beliefs, right?

Why are we even talking about extremists? We can all agree that extremists are crazy, and almost always go directly against what the main group stands for. Extremists suck. There's nothing to debate.

On the matter of "We have no freedom of religion because otherwise we'd let Muslims bomb the White House" bit, I say all rights go too far when they interfere with another's rights. (In this case, some American's right to breathe xd )
