s usual, nothing to back up your claims.

Curious readers beware: in the British police state, merely possessing a copy of the supposed al-Qaeda magazine Inspire will get you a twelve month stint in the hoosegow.

Last Thursday, the sister of two men convicted of planning a Christmas 2010 terror plot – including blowing up a toilet at the London Stock Exchange – was jailed after British authorities found a digital copy of the magazine on the memory card of her cell phone.

Judge Adrian Fulford said he accepted Ruksana Begum’s explanation that she downloaded the magazine to better understand her brothers’ case. He said, however, he had no choice but to send her to prison, according to the Associated Press.

Begum “accessed this material, which is easily accessible, before coming to London to understand the background and ideology which led to her brothers’ incarceration,” said her lawyer, Hossein Zahir.

Begum’s conviction and incarceration set a dangerous precedent – people can now be sent to prison for merely having literature on their computers and cell phones.

[...]Begum, who lived in Cardiff next door to Miah, pleaded guilty last month to having material that was likely to be useful to someone committing or preparing an act of terrorism.
[...]
After taking into account time spent in custody it is likely Begum will be released in a month after serving half her sentence.
[...]
"She is of good behaviour and a good Muslim. Against this background, I accept on the evidence before me that this defendant gathered together the contents of the SD card in order to explore and understand the charges which her brothers faced. There is no evidence that she was motivated by their ideology or was preparing to follow them. She damaged what could have been a potentially blossoming future by committing these offences."

But, said the judge, the material could have aided a terrorist, and such serious offences would always carry a prison sentence.

You do know that a US neo-nazis when traveling outside the US were arrested in a third nation and then extradited to Germany under a warrant issue by Germany under your hate crime laws?

So she pleaded guilty of a serious offence ...

... but just were lists of ‘important enemy targets’ in the US and other Western countries, including stock exchanges, airports, famous people, and ‘anywhere where Jews gather’.[

US should had come down on Germany with the hammer of god.

You see yourselves on the side of good/God, then? Despite so much evidence to the contrary?

As usual, nothing to back up your claims.

Are you so very very stupid to try to claimed that I am making the lady up from thin air when the facts can be found by a simple google search????????

Below is this information that does not exist in Izzy world of a innocent sister who was doing research in how and why her two brothers turned to the dark side and ended up in prison herself for having the copies of the magazine.

Nice police state you are living in Izzy.

Footnote even more details can be found in all the major UK newspapers and some international news sources by once more a simple google search.

however the term means come down hard damn hard on Germany for daring to charge an American citizen while on American soil for exercising his first amendment rights.

I wonder whether it is a hate crime, under English law,
to possess a copy of "Mein Kampf" or of "The Communist Manifesto" ?

A 21-year old student who posted offensive Twitter comments about Fabrice Muamba as the footballer lay collapsed on a pitch has been jailed for 56 days for inciting racial hatred.


Liam Stacey, a Swansea University biology undergraduate, provoked disgust with tweets posted as the 23-year-old Bolton Wanders midfielder was fighting for his life following a heart attack during a FA Cup quarter final match against Tottenham. The game was broadcast live on television.

The first of Stacey's messages began "LOL. **** Muamba. He's dead!!!"

As fellow Twitter users took him to task for his views, Stacey responded with further offensive comments.

He was arrested after numerous Twitter users, including former England international Stan Collymore, reported the tweets to police. Stacey admitted inciting racial hatred during a brief appearance at Swansea Magistrates Court last week.

Today, District Judge John Charles told him: "In my view there is no alternative to an immediate prison sentence."

Charles said that when Muamba collapsed, "it was not the football world who was praying for him... everybody was praying for his life".

He added that abusive remarks made to Stacey "via a social networking site were instigated as a result of vile and abhorrent comments made as a result of a young man who was fighting for his life".

If others thought about what happens to their countrymen in the USA the same way - you certainly would agree to their rights, isn't it?

You do not understand American culture it would seems as for example we value our rights under the bill of rights so highly ...

If I went on to twitter and tried to provoke violence against a particular group, or if I wrote something particularly nasty about someone in the news that had suffered a tragedy I would face prosecution

David, other than manuals that would help terrorists, t

You are not living in a free nation and given that your nation is view by many of us in the US as the mother country that is more sad to us then when the same can be said for most other countries in the world.

Do you understand that others regard their constitution/bill of rights similarly?

Improvised Munitions Handbook (Improvised Explosive Devices or IEDs) .... This manual includes methods for fabricating explosives, detonators, ... Comments should be forwarded directly to Commandant, United States Army, Special ...

0.1 Purpose and Scope
In Unconventional Warfare operations it may be impossible or unwise to use conventional military munitions as tools in the conduct of certain missions. It may be necessary instead to fabricate the required munitions from locally available or unassuming materials. The purpose of this manual is to
increase the potential of Special Forces and guerrilla troops by describing in detail the manufacture of munitions from seemingly innocuous locally available materials.Manufactured, precision devices almost always will be more effective, more reliable, and easier to use than improvised ones, but shelf items will just not be available for certain operations for security
or logistical reasons. Therefore the operator will have to rely on materials he can buy in a drug or paint store, find in a junk pile, or scrounge from military stocks. Also, many of the ingredients and materials used in fabricating homemade items are so commonplace or innocuous they can be carried
without arousing suspicion. The completed item itself often is more easily concealed or camouflaged. In addition, the field expedient item can be tailored for the intended target, thereby providing an advantage over the standard item in flexibility and versatility.The manual contains simple explanations and illustrations to permit construction of the items by
personnel not normally familiar with making and handling munitions. These items were conceived in-house or, obtained from other publications or personnel engaged in munitions or special warfare work. This manual includes methods for fabricating explosives, detonators, propellants, shaped
charges, small arms, mortars, incendiaries, delays, switches, and similar items from indigenous
materials.
