Controversial Therapy Aims to ‘Cure’ Terrorists
FOX NEWS: A controversial therapy program has been initiated to "cure" extremist Muslim inmates of their political beliefs, the U.K.'s Sunday Mail reported.

Psychologists in the prison service will use techniques similar to those used to “de-program” members of religious cults, the Mail reported. The experimental treatments are being developed by a special extremism unit, set up by the Ministry of Justice.

The therapy is part of a strategy to combat Islamic extremism in Britain's jails where Muslim prisoners are serving time for terrorist offenses, the paper reported. The Ministry fears that if they are left alone, their violent, jihadist interpretation of Islam will spread. >>> | October 20, 2008

Schools Could Offer Koran Classes
BBC: Head teachers should allow imams, rabbis and priests to offer religious instruction to pupils in all state schools, teachers' leaders have said.

The National Union of Teachers (NUT) said the move would be a way to reunite divided communities.

The NUT said parents had a right to have specific schooling in their own faith, if that was what they wanted.

But having children taught at different faith-based schools had led to community breakdown in some areas.

Offering pupils some instruction in their own faith could reduce the demand for faith schools, said NUT General Secretary Steve Sinnott. Schools Could Offer Koran Classes >>> By Hannah Goff

Williams Is Just Wrong
SUNDAY EXPRESS: I’M starting to worry about the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Dr Rowan Williams is, by all accounts, a clever and well-meaning man but his call for the adoption of sharia law in Britain would suggest that his common sense has gone the same way as his razor and deserted him for good.

What’s really frightening is not just that the Archbishop thinks sharia law is “unavoidable” but that he believes it to be “very desirable”. Er, which bits exactly? The right of husbands to beat their wives? The amputations of criminals? 
The stoning to death of women who commit adultery? Thanks, but no thanks. 



Dr Williams says that the UK has to “face up to the fact” that some of its citizens do not relate to the British legal system and suggests that adopting parts of Islamic sharia law – such as those ruling divorce or financial matters – would help maintain social cohesion. 



Wrong, wrong and wrong again, Archbishop. 



Social cohesion is about everyone sharing the same values and respect for the law. You can’t have two separate legal systems, based on entirely separate principles, running side by side, giving one religious group different treatment from every other. That isn’t the rule of law but the end of the rule of law. Williams Is Just Wrong >>> By Julia Hartley-Brewer

Kill Him “Like a Pig”!
DAILY MAIL: An Islamist fanatic plotted to snatch a British Muslim soldier from the streets and film him being beheaded "like a pig" in a lock-up garage, a court heard.

Parviz Khan, 37, built up a terrorist cell in Birmingham and planned to kidnap the soldier before filming his "ghastly" death for release to the media.

The attack was designed to cause "panic and fear" amongst the Army and the wider British public.

Leicester Crown Court was told that the terror cell had sent money and equipment to Pakistan for the use of terrorists trying to kill British soldiers on the Afghan border.

Prosecutor Nigel Rumfitt QC said Khan wanted to get "physically involved" in the bloodshed but was prevented by "his bosses overseas" because his supply operation was so valued.

Instead, the court heard, he hatched the plot to kill a soldier in the UK.

He decided to target a Muslim fighting in the British Army and asked another member of the cell to identify a potential victim.
Mr Rumfitt said: "The prosecution say that Parviz Khan is a fanatic.

"He is a man who has the most violent and extreme views. Khan was enraged by the idea that there were Muslim soldiers in the British Army, some of them from the Gambia in West Africa.

"He decided to kidnap such a soldier with the help of drug dealers in Birmingham.

"The soldier would be approached in the Broad Street nightlife area, lured into a car and taken to a lock-up garage and murdered with his head cut off - "like a pig". Islamic extremist gang 'plotted to kidnap British Muslim soldier and behead him like a pig' >>> By Andy Dolan
