DAILY EXPRESS: A BRITISH preacher told hundreds of young Muslims it was their duty to fight UK troops in Iraq, a court heard yesterday.
Trevor Brooks urged them to help buy guns and bombs for insurgents there, instead of giving cash to charity.
The cleric, also known as Abu Izzadeen and Omar Brooks, said the Black Watch regiment was in Fallujah to rape and kill women and children, Kingston Crown Court in south-west London heard.
He told the crowd at Regent’s Park mosque in central London to join the insurgency in Iraq. He said they must choose between the camp of Allah, whose “prince” was Osama Bin Laden, or Satan’s camp led by George Bush and Tony Blair.
In a video of the November 2004 rant played in court Brooks, 32, of Leyton, east London, was heard saying: “We are terrorists – terrify the enemies of Allah.” He added: “The jihad is all our responsibility on every single Muslim.” Cleric ‘Incited Muslims to Kill Western Soldiers’ >>> By Padraic Flanagan
