The Right To Be A Fanatical Threat
"You find people are busy working the whole of their life. They wake up at 7 o'clock. They go to work at 9 o'clock. They work for eight, nine hours a day. They come home at 7 o'clock, watch EastEnders [a British soap opera], sleep, and they do that for 40 years of their life. That is called slavery. ... What kind of life is that? That is the life of the Kuffar [a non-Muslim]."
"[One must learn from revered figures in Islamic history who only worked one or two days a year], the rest of the year they were busy with Jihad [holy war] and things like that. People will say, 'Ah, but you are not working.' But the normal situation is for you to take money from the kuffar [non-Muslims]. So we take Jihad Seeker's Allowance."
"We take the Jizya, which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the kuffar. They give us the money. You work, give us the money, Allahu Akhbar [Allah is great]. We take the money. Hopefully there's no one from the DSS [Department of Social Security] listening to this."

"Following an investigation by the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command, we have today authorized charges against Anjem Choudary and Mohammed Mizanur Rahman. We have concluded that there is sufficient evidence and it is in the public interest to prosecute Anjem Choudary and Mohammed Rahman for inviting support for ISIL, a proscribed terrorist organization, between 29 June 2014 and 6 March this year. Each man is charged with one offence contrary to section 12 of the Terrorism Act 2000."
"It is alleged that Anjem Choudary and Mohammed Rahman invited support for ISIL in individual lectures which were subsequently published online. The decision to prosecute was taken in accordance with the Code for Crown Prosecutors."

Born in Britain to parents from Pakistan, Anjem Choudary has been extremely clever in his incitements to jihad and to violence, knowing how not to incriminate himself to the point of criminal prosecution. His law degree has been invaluable to him, enabling him to use British law to his best advantage while avoiding the fatal error of doing anything that could conceivably give British security agencies the ability to gather evidence against him.
He is a hate-and-division cleric par excellence. Britain has succeeded in ridding itself in the past of other fiery Islamist speakers inciting to jihad; Mr. Choudary is a British citizen, one skilled in using British laws, and particularly devoted to bleeding British taxpayers since non-Muslims must be subservient in any possible way to Muslims. And the obligation of Muslims is to charitably allow non-Muslims the opportunity to support them financially.
And while Mr. Choudary lives a life of idle ease in public housing with generous charitable stipends allowing that ease, he is a busy man indeed, stirring the social pot and encouraging Muslims to do their duty to engage in jihad And to go where they're most needed, to join the ranks of Islamic State. Two years ago, journalist Soeren Kern writing for the Gatestone Institute revealed that Mr. Choudary is married with four children. To maintain his family he receives over $38,000 annually in welfare.
He also takes advantage of a housing benefit which domiciles him and his family in a $485,000 house located in Leytonstone, East London. He receives additional council tax allowances income support and child benefits. In total, since his welfare payments are not subject to tax, his income comes to the equivalence of a $50,000 salary. Leaving him free to pursue his busy life of inciting to jihad and inspiring the youth of Britain to obey the Koranic injunction to engage in jihad.
Mr. Choudary, 48, protests his innocence of the terror charge in his appearance at Westminster Magistrates' Court, and states that he would be pleading that Prime Minister David Cameron, the police and the Crown Prosecution Service were in fact the guilty ones. That the charges laid against him of inviting support for Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant represent a "political manoeuvre to silence Muslim voices". He is prepared to defend himself in court.
"I believe from the top down this is a political manoeuvre from Cameron, the Home Secretary, the police and the CPS, to try to silence voices of the Muslim community, of which I am one of the loudest. I have a very strong case against the Crown and I would like to have my day in court", he asserted. For his part, Prosecutor David Cawthorne remarked of the two defendants: "Both are high-profile figures and are well aware of their influence across social media and their wider community."
And Mr. Choudary has a come-back for that, as well: "The whole issue is about people supposedly preaching hate, but there's so much hate preached by people, by the far-right, by animal rights activists. If people have strong views, why should they be curtailed?" As, for example, an Islam4UK march planned for Wootton Bassett Wiltshire in honour of Muslims killed in the conflict in Afghanistan.
That just happened to be the town where repatriatied bodies of dead British soldiers were driven through the streets from RAF Lyneham.
It seems some 600 Britons have taken their obligations to Islam seriously enough to join ISIL, and from that number some fifty of them have died martyrs, fighting for the Islamic State caliphate; the one that Mr. Choudary is eager to live under. Where he would have the freedom to continue his praise for 9/11 in the U.S. and the July 2005 bombings in London.
