Still Banned from Britain: US talk show host Michael Savage still faces an entry bar into the UK, despite a change of government

It has already been established that controversial US talk radio host was only ever included on the ban list to ‘prevent it being all-Muslim’, so just why does Michael Savage remain banned from supposedly free-speech upholding democratic country?

Is David Cameron just as afraid of Muslims as his Labour predecessors?

He’s still on Britain’s least-wanted list. Talk radio host Michael Savage has waged a vigorous fight against the British government, hoping to have his name removed from a list of 16 “undesirables” banned from the country on May 5, 2009, by then British Home Secretary Jacqui Smith.

The list included Islamist terrorists, neo-Nazis and Russian gang members — and Mr. Savage says he’s still on the new version, despite his efforts to persuade British officials that his inclusion is unwarranted and unfair. Read the rest of this entry »

Have they lost their memories, their minds – or both?:

NEW DELHI – Despite the relatively speedy verdict in India’s trial of the sole surviving gunman of the 2008 Mumbai attacks and talk of Ajmal Amir Kasab being “fast-tracked” to the gallows by the end of the year, Kasab could yet exploit the appeals process and delay his execution by years or even decades.

Judge Madan Laxmanlal Tahaliyani last week handed Kasab a death sentence after he was found guilty of waging war on India, mass murder, conspiracy and terrorism offences during the Mumbai attacks of November 26, 2008, during which 166 people were killed and 300 injured.

Kasab’s sentencing marked the culmination of a dramatic, high-profile trial that had consumed the public’s attention for 17 months, with a record 653 witnesses and a record 1,522-page judgment. The case, concluded in 271 days, was the fastest ever terror trial conducted in India. In contrast, the trial for the bombings of Mumbai in 1993 dragged on for 14 years.

Azad Ali: radical Islamist, appointed by Britain's top police force, to protect us from, um, radical Islamists

Continuing the Telegraph’s excellent recent work in uncovering the infiltration of the ever-credulous British Establishment by Islamic radicals and terror supporters, we discover that even the people we trust to protect us from them are hiring them to ‘help’:

Sir Ian Blair [Former Metropolitan Police Commissioner] signed a formal agreement with an Islamic extremist to treat him as the Metropolitan Police’s “principal” representative of the Muslim community, it can be disclosed. The activist, Azad Ali, was accepted by the Met as a trusted interlocutor. The force also agreed to give him information on forthcoming anti-terror raids. – Mr Ali has previously justified the killing of British troops in Iraq, believes al Qaeda is a “myth,” and has praised a key mentor of Osama bin Laden.

Mr Ali signed the deal, a copy of which has been seen by the Daily Telegraph, in his capacity as the then chairman of the Muslim Safety Forum – a body closely linked to the fundamentalist Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE). Read the rest of this entry »

The people the Obama administration would welcome talks with..

ISLAMABAD – Taliban militants flog two men and a teenage boy in a video that has emerged from Pakistan’s tribal belt along the Afghan border, showing the hold of insurgents in at least one area there despite army offensives and intensified U.S. missile strikes in the region.

The video was shot on a mobile phone on Feb. 3 and passed to a local journalist who occasionally provides video to Associated Press Television News. The man who provided the clip said it was taken in the Mamozai area of the Orakzai tribal region, though there was no way of verifying that because travel there is dangerous for outsiders. The tribal elder requested anonymity out of fear for his life. Read the rest of this entry »

Once again, Pat Condell eloquently voices what everyone else is thinking. Or would be thinking, if this trial weren’t being ignored by much of the European mainstream media.
