Three Charged in Britain in Relation to Online Threat Against PMs

Via SITE Intel Group -

Three men arrested in Britain in connection with threats made on the al-Ekhlaas jihadist forum were charged today, August 28, 2008, with terror offenses. Under the banner of “al-Qaeda Organization in Britain”, postings were made by the online identity, “umar rabie”, threatening suicide bombings on British political targets. The three individuals, Ishaq Kanmi, Abbas Iqbal, and Ilyas Iqbal, all from Blackburn in Lancashire, England were arrested on August 14 as suspects related to these threats. While Abbas Iqbal and Ilyas Iqbal were charged with possession and dissemination of terrorist publications, Kanmi was also charged with soliciting murder and for claiming to belong to al-Qaeda.

al-Ekhlaas is not a place for normal people to frequent....or just browse.

I would strongly advise against attempting to "check it out". You are just asking for trouble.
