MAD Muslim hate preacher Anjem Choudary has been filmed converting an 11-year-old boy to Islam in Birmingham’s city centre.
Sean gets the lowdown on Islam from Anjem Choudary while a creepy young rug-butter looks on
Described as “bewildered” in this report, the boy, who gives his name as Sean, was filmed repeating Arabic chants and swearing allegiance to the moon god Allah.
He is seen being prompted throughout by controversial cleric Anjem Choudary, a follower of exiled hate-preacher Omar Bakri Mohammed.
The incident was filmed during a demonstration by Choudary’s Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah group in Birmingham earlier this month.
Choudary, 42, was one of the masterminds behind the protests at the homecoming parade of heroic British soldiers in Luton earlier this year.
He praised protesters who branded British troops “murderers” and later appeared at a press conference flanked by thugs who took part in the demo.
Choudary defended the young boy’s “reversion” to Islam but admitted his parents were not with him and were not consulted.He said:
The child was genuinely interested in Islam.The boy told us he wanted to become a Muslim and, of course, some people are intellectually more mature than they are physically. I don’t see there is any harm in this.
He was with his friends, but I didn’t see if his parents were there.
A message on Choudary’s website offers advice for those who become Muslim at his Islamic Roadshow. It says:
Conversion packs are already provided to those who revert to Islam in the Islamic Roadshows. They include a booklet on ‘Everything a Muslim must know’ and a free DVD with a brief guide on how to pray in Islam.
Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah, is a splinter group of the controversial Al Muhajiroun sect.
Al-Muhajiroun, which has recruited hundreds of fanatics in the Midlands, fell apart in 2004 just months before Bakri was stopped from coming back to the UK under terror laws.
It has been revealed that the sect is planning to reform.
Bakri has now set his sights set on a return for the extremist group, though the Home Office is understood to be closely monitoring its activities.

That photo is dying for a caption competition. Look that the expression on the one on the right!

Exactly, barriejohn.
While I find Choudary to be an offensive speck of faecal matter, what he's doing is little different to what happens in some state schools.
June 30th, 2009 at 9:33 am
Oh, and BTW, is anyone else slightly unsettled by the Daily Nazi's use of the term 'white child' in their headline? I mean, everyone knows that white children must be christians, don't they?
June 30th, 2009 at 10:04 am
Increasingly often, The Freethinker makes me, a seasoned atheist, cringe. Yes, I usually agree on the essence of your posts, but the appeals to emotion are just ridiculous. "Choudary, 42, was one of the masterminds behind the protests at the homecoming parade of heroic British soldiers in Luton earlier this year." You've got to be kidding – why the hell are the soldiers "heroic"?
June 30th, 2009 at 10:10 am
Excellent opportunity to have him arrested!
Does he have an enhanced CRB check? If not, he cannot work or 'handle' children in public without parental consent.
Or could this be classed as child abuse, by deliberately touch a boy in an inappropriate manner? (RC sky pilots been doing that for years, so now the mullahs are going public too. Thought their tastes was for pre-pubescent girls though?)
Either way, could you imagine the uproar if The Freethinker decided to do a public 'de-baptism' event? The Maily Catholograph would go effing berserk!

I was horrified by the Mail's use of "white child", which I why I did not repeat the phrase!
June 30th, 2009 at 11:23 am
And from the look on the boy`s face (not entirely obscured) Choudary has just got to the bit about all devout Muslim boys having the snip!

Oooh! Speaking in tongues – and on an atheist blog as well!
Did you hear how the Welsh language came into being? At the tower of Babel, one of the workers was looking up when he got a mouthful of mortar. "Phwthhllthphththththaah!" He said!!

Increasingly often, other atheists make me, a seasoned patriot, cringe. Yes i agree there is no higher power, but is that a reason to be some cowardly red who would do away with all borders and turn the world into some homogenous superstate?
June 30th, 2009 at 1:10 pm
This is just the sort of thing that evangelical Christians have been engaging in for years! I didn`t realize that the muzzies were just as bad!!
"Are you saved, sonny?" "No."
"Would you like to be saved?" "Yes."
"Do you know how to be saved?" "No."
"All you have to do is to invite Jesus into your heart."
"Repeat these words after me: Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I realize that I am going to Hell. I thank you for dying on the Cross for my sins. Please come into my life to cleanse me from sin, so that I can go to Heaven. Amen."
"Now, read this Bible verse (John 3:16 or something similar). It says there that if you believe you will be saved. You believe don`t you? Well then, you`re saved because God says so. Now thank him."
It`s like something from Dickens, isn`t it, yet I personally knew many Christians who regularly engaged in "converting" children in this fashion, and sincerely believed that they were going to see all their smiling faces in Heaven!!
June 30th, 2009 at 1:13 pm
You`re right there too, Tim! I`m far too wised up on all this not to know that this is PRECISELY the sort of indoctrination that is going on in "Faith Schools", but the gullible public have absolutely no idea!!
June 30th, 2009 at 2:01 pm
I thought Al Muhajiroun was banned in the UK, not just "controversial".
June 30th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Speaking of the mail I propose a competition: who can get the worst rated quote on an article, it's not hard as far as I can see just show a bit of normal human decency combined with a lack of xenophobia and you will be off to a flying start….. maybe double post here for tracking…. just a thought….
on the subject of the article don't it just make you want to spray those chaps with a super soaker full of pigs blood? ok I jest, that would only get you in trouble with the law and sign your own fatwa…..
June 30th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
'of course, some people are intellectually more mature than they are physically'
And vice-versa Mr Choudary, some people are more physically mature than they are intellectually !

Oh , by the way the boy is still a Muslim,and is hoping to convert his family as well.
June 30th, 2009 at 8:26 pm
Of course he is. The crime of apostasy is punishable by death in Islam, so what choice does he have?
June 30th, 2009 at 10:34 pm
That information entitled ‘Everything a Muslim must know’ sounds fascinating. I'm guessing it's a pretty slim volume?
July 1st, 2009 at 1:58 am
Fuck this "revert" shit. It means everyone is a muslim at birth, and converts–the word is converts, in English–are merely going back to the original faith that all share naturally at birth. Even using the word at all is giving them an inch.
July 1st, 2009 at 7:47 am
Well spotted, Uzza! I didn`t even notice that he had used the word. There is more about this ridiculous doctrine at http://hispanicmuslims.com/stories/ which features dozens of really fascinating Stories of Reverts to Islam, including "How Allah Found Me In Mexico" (I`m not making this up!!). Sadly, I haven`t got time to read any of this bullshit, but there is a prominent statement which declares: "We believe people are born Muslims…by embracing our stupid, infantile, barbaric, nonsensical beliefs you return to your natural disposition." (Thank goodness for a bit of honesty from the rug-butters at last!!!)

Those Mooslums have got it all wrong. They need to all read a good old book called The Bible, not some made up book called the Koran.
There is no way on God's green earth that they are going to Heaven.
God made it plain in Genesis that these moon Worshipers (who are actually descendants of Ishmael) would be born bad and not welcome in heaven.
Some were even worshipping the daughters of the moon-god, Al-lat, Al-uzza, and Manat. They were called "The Daughters of Allah." The moon-god was called "Allah."
Old Lucifer got it into his big red head that he could unite all of these idol-worshipping towel-heads under Allah. He did this by appearing to a person that was already very upset that God wasn't going to let him go to heaven just because he was a descendent of Ishmael. That feller's name was Moohammad. Demons helped him write a book called, "the Ko-ran," which is basically an instruction manual on how to kill anyone who doesn't worship the moon.
The only way for them to avoid Hell is to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. And it doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon, because the minute you start running your mouth about Jesus being the Son of God, they shoot you dead.

Timely words from Sister Talitha once again! How we all praise the Lord for His infinite wisdom in raising up such fathful teachers to witness to His truth!! (Just a cotton-picking minute – Talitha`s a woman of the female persuasion, isn`t she? Doesn`t she know that it`s not the prerogative of the woman to usurp authority over the man? What`s going on here for Chrissakes?!!)
July 1st, 2009 at 11:28 am
That only applies to my dealings with God fearing Christian men Sir, and does not apply to atheists, Mooslums, Jooz or any other kinds of Unsaved Trash.
July 1st, 2009 at 12:00 pm
Ah think yoo need ta zip your lip, Sister Talitha, and let us good menfolk do the talkin`! After all, we`ve done a pretty darn good job o` roolin` the world so far, `n we don`t want you womenfolk messin` things up for us!! God`s Way is Best - Hallelujah!!!
July 1st, 2009 at 2:51 pm
Talitha is either very, very, tongue-in-cheek or very, very disturbed…….

The thing is, as has been said so often before, the real thing is almost beyond parody anyway! There`s barely any difference between what she`s saying and what the fundies are saying themselves!!

I just think that if you seem to believe the stuff you say that some crazy people will take that faith as a sign of truth, it's a shame that some of us humans are so easily sold…

barriejohn,
Visited the website, genius!

Hey, thanks for the link. Stuff like that helps me with my blog. Oddly enuf, <^_^>, I don't get many muslims commenting, lol.
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:52 pm
Hallelujah, Sister Talitha! Another poor, lonely, wayward, lost sheep returns to the fold!! (Bad news for the "fatted calf "though!!!)
July 3rd, 2009 at 9:08 pm
I like your blog Uzza, though where you find the time for all that analysis I just don`t know! I`m amazed to read that you don`t get many Mohammedans visiting the site though, as their usual MO (just like their fundamentalist, crackpot Christian cousins) is to seek out sites that are critical of their precious beliefs and inundate them with screeds of mindless propaganda (AKA "comments"). It`s like a virus really!!
July 3rd, 2009 at 9:17 pm
BTW Have you ever read the Book of Mormon? The reason I ask is that it seems to me to be written in much the same way as the Koran. When I first got hold of a copy of the book of Mormon and started reading it I just collapsed in laughter that anyone could take any of it seriously! Quite apart from the ludicrous exploits of the Ten Lost Tribes, it appears to be written in a sort of "cod KJV English". It`s just as if a child had read a bit of the Bible and was reproducing the style without a proper grasp of the rules of grammar. Now, when I read the Koran, I get that self-same feeling that the author has read the Bible, and said to himself: "Hey, I could write something just like that, including some of the same material, and pass it off as my own work." Do you agree?
July 3rd, 2009 at 9:25 pm
That`s not to say that poor old Mo, being so mentally unbalanced, didn`t really believe at the time that this garbage was all being revealed to him by a divine messenger; though in the case of Joseph Smith I have no such illusions!
July 4th, 2009 at 4:53 am
Oh, yeah, the BoM: I was married to a mormon for a lotta years. The missionaries can be fun toys.
Yes, I totally agree about the writing. With the koran, I can't say about the original, but the translators nearly all buy into that KJV English. God talks like that, y'unnerstand.
July 4th, 2009 at 4:57 am
You win the thread. ROFLMAO.

Choudary and all his followers should be sent back to the country from whence they came. We've all had enough of this shit.

Choudary and most of his supporters were born in the UK. Thought I’d just point that out.
