Promoting Jihad in the UK

Via Hudson, a fine article by Alexander Meleagrou-Hitchens on how the ideology of Anwar al-Awlaki has been and promoted in the UK by, amongst others, Cage Prisoners and Mohammed Hamid AKA ‘Osama bin London’.

Here is a video of Muhammed Hamid at one of his jihad training camps:

In the United States, pro al-Qaeda preacher Anwar al-Awlaki has recently attracted the attention of mainstream media and counter terrorism commentators. His involvement with Fort Hood attacker Nidal Hassan has sparked a public interest in a man whose role in disseminating al-Qaeda ideology has been overlooked for far too long.

Nowhere is this complacency more acute than in the United Kingdom, where a number of organisations have openly promoted and supported Awlaki for years with impunity. As set out in a briefing for the Centre for Social Cohesion recently, the most active Awlaki promoters in the UK are a group called Cage Prisoners (CP), for whom Awlaki acts essentially as an emir (religious leader).
