Fucking finally.

Quote:One of the UK's most notorious radical clerics has been convicted of inviting others to support the so-called Islamic State, it can now be reported.
Police said Anjem Choudary, 49, had stayed "just within the law" for years, but was arrested in 2014 after pledging allegiance to the militant group.
Many people tried for serious terror offences were influenced by his lectures and speeches, police said.
Choudary was convicted alongside confidant Mohammed Mizanur Rahman.
Counter-terrorism chiefs have spent almost 20 years trying to bring Choudary, a father of five, to trial, blaming him, and the proscribed organisations which he helped to run, for radicalising young men and women.
Both men were charged with one offence of inviting support for IS - which is contrary to section 12 of the Terrorism Act 2000 - between 29 June 2014 and 6 March 2015.
The verdict on the two defendants was delivered on 28 July, but can only be reported now following the conclusion of a separate trial at the Old Bailey of another group of men for a similar offence.

A decent animated gif would be helpful!!
Choudary makes Trump seem like a liberal lefty and for his hatespeech, surely on par with the likes of Adolf Hitler and his ilk.

Police were probably afraid of being branded as Islamophobic or something. But it's nice to see he finally got what was coming to him for a while.

He's been given air time on both British and American tv, I saw him being interviewed by Hannity in the US, I couldn't work out which of them I disliked the most.

That is the problem today. If you say anything against a Muslim or their religion, the "Islamophobia", card gets played. I remember from last night when someone spoke about what happened in Corsica the other day and one muslim said something about tolerance towards other people. So, I thought why not, why not just ask a question to this person. What about Judaeophobie (it was a French discussion), Christianophobie, Sikhophobie, Hindouphobie, Buddistophobie, Shintophobie, homophobie? I didn't get a response, suffice is to say, a great deal of French muslims despise the state of Israel, but that is another topic.

Very careful wording...

Lord, if he's near Hannity in being obnoxious, he must be quite the cunt indeed.

Have you even watched the majority of his videos? He's not careful.
We're just too tolerant.
