If you want to see the face of fanaticism – and you have a strong stomach- check out the website of Al Muhajiroun (a small (thankfully), but high profile Islamic extremist group based in the UK) and click on the press release dated 17th August, 2003. Here’s how it ends:

“Two years on then, it seems that during their customary 1 minutes silence in NewYork and elsewhere on September the 11th 2003, Muslims worldwide will again be watching replays of the collapse of the Twin Towers, praying to Allah (SWT) to grant those magnificent 19, Paradise. They will also be praying for the reverberations to continue until the eradication of all man-made law and the implementation of divine law in the form of the Khilafah – carrying the message of Islam to the world and striving for Izhar ud-Deen i.e. the total domination of the world by Islam.”

If that’s not enough, try the press release of August 24th entitled ‘The United Nations – a legitimate target?’. Here’s an extract:

“One of the many benefits of 9/11 was that it clearly delineated the two camps of Islam and Kufr (non-Islam), the camp of Haq (truth) and that of Batil (falsehood), the camp of sovereignty and supremacy for God as opposed to sovereignty and supremacy for man made law. Verily Muslims have no choice but to reject all alliances apart from those with Muslims. This means rejecting the UN and any organisation or body propagating man made law. As Allah (SWT) says in the Qur’an:

’O believers do not take the Jews and Christians as friends and protectors. They are just supporters of and love each other alone. And whoever does turn to them is one of them. Verily Allah does not guide the oppressors’ [EMQ 5:51]

And ‘The believers are a single brotherhood’ [EMQ 49:10]

Let it be known therefore that all regimes, governments and bodies (implementing man made law) in the world today are rejected by Muslims and that the only legitimate authority, recognised in Islam on the state level, is that of the Islamic State i.e. Al-Khilafah, which must be established by Muslims and which will carry the message of Islam to the world – striving for Izhar ud-Deen i.e. the total domination of the world by Islam, through its divine foreign policy of Jihad.”

The Lord of The Flies , again.
