Is Anjem Choudhary also a MI5 informer?


Omar Bakri Muhammad is the mentor of Anjem Choudhury.

He was interviewed by American journalist, Ron Suskind for his book, The Way of the World: A Story of Truth and Hope in an age of Extremism.

This quote is taken from pg. 200-202:

Ron Suskind: "But there's a hidden dimension to it all, which I glimpsed when we (author and Bakri) chatted in the hotel lobby two years back. A British intelligence officer told me that Bakri had helped MI5 on several of its investigations....After Bakri finished one of his long explanations...I mentioned his secret assistance to police. He became flustered. "I'm upset you know this," he said grimly, as one of his deputies looked on from a distance. Of course, such a disclosure would have undermined his credibility among young radical jihadists, his constituency. I asked, then why do it, why help the police? He paused. "Because I like it here ," he said. "My family's here. I like the health benefits..."

“...A few months later, the July 7, 2005...and all such backdoor arrangements were off... (he went to Lebanon, although Suskind mistakenly says Libya)

On the phone...He says the British government, "whether they admit it or not," misses him, too."We were able to control the Muslim youth," he says on the grainy mobile phone connection from Tripoli. "The radical preacher that allows a venting of a point of view is preventing violence. Now many of us are gone or in jail, and we've been replaced by radical jihadis, who take the youth underground. You don't see them until the day they vent with the bombs."

Bakri enoyed his notoriety and was willing to pay for it with information he passed to the police...It's a fabric of subtle interlocking needs: the Brits need be in a backchannel conversation with someone working the steam valve of Muslim anger; Bakri needs health insurance."

Thank you and good night Vienna!

Imperial Britain and Yemen.

Imperial Britain and Yemen: “The whole thing had been made up by the British officers so that their troops would be able to get some action in, let off a bit of steam, and arrive in Singapore with a bit of confidence.”

It’s a pity he doesn’t mention the fact that Israel joined British mercenaries and Saudi Arabia to fight the new republic.

Actually, there doesn’t seem to be any evidence that Saudi troops were involved in the 60’s.

The boots on the ground were entirely Britain's and Israel's with the Wahhabi King Faisal of Saudi Arabia providing the finance.

Yemen's ruling gangsters and the Birmingham connection.

New York Times provides a good sketch of Yemen’s ruling political gangsters:

“Mr. Saleh and his son also face another internal challenge from the next generation of the powerful Ahmar family, Yemeni bluebloods. Sheik Abdullah al-Ahmar was the chief of the powerful Hashed tribe, founded the Islah party and was Parliament speaker until his death in December 2007.” Complete article is here.

This so-called Sheik actually visited Birmingham, England in the 1990’s. And not only that - the Islah party ran it’s own Islamist schools in North Yemen from at least the early 1980’s to the mid 1990’s. The schools had a totally different curriculum to the state schools. These ‘brainwashing’ schools were laughably called ‘Scientific Institutes’. The first ‘guadian’ of these schools (and co-leader of the Islah party) was Abd al-Majid al-Zindani who is now wanted by the Americans because they consider him to be a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist” and a former mentor to Osama bin Laden.

It’s so not nice when old friends fall out with each other!

But the really funny thing is that one of these ‘Scientific Institutes’ opened up in...Birmingham, England. One of the former head teachers of this ‘brainwashing’ school decided not to go to Yemen when the Islah party ‘institutes’ were disbanded in the mid 90’s but remained in England. Adnan Saif, a former head teacher of the ‘Scientific Institute’ in Birmingham, is now employed, according to this Guardian article, by Birmingham City Council as Chief Executive of Urban Living.

Adnan Saif has nothing but the ultimate praise for Sheik Abdullah al-Ahmar. Indeed, on his personal website (when it is online) he compares the late gangster to Mandela and Gandi! The reason he thinks he can get away with this comparison is that, in my opinion, he thinks Yemenis are too stupid and brainwashed to know any better to challenge this assertion and the English are too ignorant of Yemen to know what he is talking about.

Hmm...I wonder if there is ever a personal and spiritual conflict of interest of having run a North Yemeni 'brainwashing' Islamist school with connections to an individual associated with bin Laden and being Chief Executive of Urban Living in England's second city?
