بريطانيا: صحيفة الديلي ستار تستمر في التخويف من الإسلاميين

- خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

استمرت صحيفة "ديلي ستار" البريطانية الفنية في مهاجمة المسلمين والنشطاء والدعاة الإسلاميين؛ وذلك من خلال زعمها مؤخرًا مخاوف رجال الشرطة من إلحاق النشطاء الإسلاميين أضرارًا بالأولمبياد الأخيرة بـ"لندن"، من خلال استخدام المسجد الكبير التابع لجماعة التبليغ والدعوة بمنطقة "سترادفورد"، والذي أدى رفض منحه التراخيص للتأخر في الإنشاء إلى سعيهم لشراء موقع آخر بمنطقة "نيوهام".

وقد ردت "جمعية نهر ريفرين" تلك المزاعم، مؤكدةً أنه لم يكن هناك قلق أمني تجاه نشطاء الدعوة بجماعة التبليغ، وأنهم لا يرغبون إلا في بناء مسجد لممارسة شعائر دينهم، وليس هناك مشكلة في ذلك. المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

BOMB FEAR AT MEGA MOSQUE

SECURITY forces feared extremists could use boats to smuggle explosives on to the site of a proposed mega mosque in East London during the Games.

Spooks conducted a series of boating missions to test the possibility of terrorists bringing bombs into the Stratford area.

• Anti-terror chiefs thought they might use the River Thames, River Lea and a tributary known as the Channelsea River, which runs adjacent to the planned 12,000-seater mosque site in West Ham, East London.

The 18-acre site is pencilled in as the new home of Islamist group Tablighi Jamaat and is less than a mile from the Olympic Stadium.

According to a statement made by the FBI’s deputy international terrorism chief Michael Heimbach in 2003, the group acts as “recruiting agents” for al-Qaida.

• They submitted another planning application to Newham Council last week to transform their current building into a huge mosque after missing a previous deadline.

Last night, Alan Craig, a former local councillor campaigning against the mosque, said: “No doubt the security forces have been watching it.

• “I spoke some time ago to a number of anti-terror officers about it and they were certainly watching the situation with the Olympics coming up. This site is less than half a mile from Olympic stadia. They were quite concerned.”

• Craig added: “Officers had been out in rubber boats on the river assessing the possibility of getting ordnance in via the river.”

Meanwhile trustees of the Riverine Centre, which run the Tablighi Jamaat site, said: “There are no such security concerns regarding Tablighi Jamaat.

• “These people are just interested in constructing a building that is suitable for their faith. There is nothing sinister going on.”

Last night a Home Office spokesman added: “We do not comment on security matters. Millions of people have been able to enjoy a spectacular Games in safety but we continue to remain focused and vigilant.”
