December 5, 2008 (LPAC)--The British harboring, using and controlling of so-called Islamic terrorists is once again on the agenda in many Arab countries. It is not, however, because of the Mumbai terror attacks, but another case of flagrant British dirty tricks. One of the leading Al-Qaeda spiritual leaders who has played a crucial role in recruiting new members for Al-Qaeda in Britain and Europe since 1993, Omar Mahmoud Abu Omar, aka Abu Qatada, was rearrested in London for violating his bail conditions. The British Interior Ministry stated that Abu Qatada was hiding in preparation for fleeing to Lebanon to join another British-asset, Omar Bakri, leader of the London-based terrorist group Hiz-bu-Tahrir, who left Britain for Lebanon in 2006. Needless to say that in Lebanon, both Bakri and Abu Qatada would be performing new missions in the service of Her Majesty's BAE-Prince Bandar Wahhabi destabilization operations.
The question which is being raised is not why he was rearrested, but why he was set free in Britain in the first place, when all evidence pointed to the fact that he played a key role in recruiting terrorists, including Zakaria Mousawi (the only indicted terrorist in the USA for the 9/11 attacks), and Richard "shoebomber" Reid.
The Jordanian leading daily Al-Rai provides the answer to the question. Abu Qatada is Jordanian by origin and has two life-sentences awaiting him in Jordan for planning and conducting terrorist acts there. In spite of major efforts by the Jordanian government in the past years, the British government has refused to extradite him.
Saleh Al-Qallab writes today in Al-Rai today: From the first day of his arrival in Britain escaping Jordanian justice, Abu Qatada joined terrorist activities. Despite that, the British turned a blind eye to what he was doing. The reason is that they needed his services, the same way the U.S. intelligence needed the services of Sheikh Omar Abdulrahman. When he was still performing dirty security operations in the service of British interests, Abu Qatada was a man of opinion, who was to be protected, and all the Jordanian demands for extraditing him were met with absolute refusal. Then, when he has been exhausted and no longer able to perform these dirty services, the British suddenly discovered that he was posing a grave danger to their security.
The Arabic section of the LaRouche movement have prepared a special report on the British role in the Mumbai terror attacks, putting together the different EIR press releases. It is posted on the Arabic website (http://nysol.se/arabic/media/mumbai.html) and has been sent to all relevant Arabic media and government institutions in Arab countries
