Wanted-style posters which declared a “fatwa” on the home secretary are being investigated by police in south London.

Several posters have been displayed around Tooting, criticising Theresa May “for the abduction, kidnapping and false imprisonment” of radical clerics.

:eek::eek:
this is just terrible (N)
 
I’ve been saying it all over this board. Radical Islam is on the rise in Britain.
 
Someone sticks a few posters on a wall and it’s panic… Chill.
 
Why are you throwing this at me? I refuse to answer. As if I have to deny being a Bin Ladenite. All I said was that someone putting up some silly amateurist wanted posters on a street is not a serious international news story. They look like a practical joke to me. But already someone’s giving us the Islamists-are-taking-over-Britain line.
 
What is this? Muslims are all secret supporters of creepy Bin Ladenites until they explicitly tell you that they’re not? Don’t talk to me like I owe you anything. You don’t know anything about me.

Here is the link to the news article cited in the first post:

The Wild West styled posters are reportedly to be explained on Monday, said an Abu Bakr, who claims to be a spokesman for the group behind them.

Just a nudge to the wise 😉

You know how we Brits get whenever anybody links to the Daily Mail?

Well, the Star would be the equivalent of a ‘National Enquirer Daily’.
 
People like Hamza, and the people that put up the posters of a Fatwa, should be deported (either voluntarily for by court order), i don’t entirely respect every last member of Parliament, but i have to have some respect for them by virtue of there office (same as the Bishops of the Church, both Catholic and Anglican), if they want to issue what amounts as an order of death against one of our leaders, they shouldn’t be in the country.

Let’s hope the people that put up these posters, are brought to justice, if it was me I’ld be trying to get them for conspiracy to commit treason.

Thanks, Kaninchen. I admit the promotional material on the page cast doubt on the credibility of the newspaper. :o

Still, the article did have a clear photo of the poster. The “Wild West” style of the poster suggests to me that the people behind them didn’t intend the posters to be taken at face value. But I could be misreading their intentions. Perhaps we will find out in a day or so.
 
Couldn’t have put it better myself! I reckon that the whole thing is based on attention seeking, but as you say such things can build up a folk demon and these ideas are certainly gaining ground in many muslim communities in Britain. There are places in Birmingham, for example, where one can see taliban flags being flown from windows.

On the other hand, one should seek to distinguish between ‘treason’ and ‘standard issue defiant youth enthusiasms which will be grown out of when one’s got a mortage and will be so last year when the next generation comes along’.

But when one youth countercultural movement commits honour beatings on female siblings we have ourselves a problem.

Should the ‘rule of Law’ apply - of course it should, I’m a middle-aged, lifelong Tory, what other answer would you expect! 😃

On the other hand, characterising every young enthusiast in political tetosterone-gasm as the same would seem to fly in the face of experience - some of them may even become a future equivalent of neocons.

In other words, what I’m suggesting is that there isn’t ‘a problem’ but, rather, that there are a range of problems and there isn’t ‘one answer’ but many.

I think I actually largely agree with you. There are indeed many problems and many solutions, it is however hard sometimes to differentiate between those suffering youth angst and those who have genuinely radical beliefs. I must admit I became neoconservative the ‘traditional’ way, a diehard leftie in my younger days mugged by reality… only I’m still a student so possibly still a ‘young enthusiast in political tetosterone-gasm’ in one form or another 😛
 
If worst comes to worse, there will be military action taken. It’s all fun and games for all these radicals until the army comes after them.

Yes, look how the Provos gave up automatically soon as the Army got involved.
