Doesn't it just warm your heart that not only immigrants, but British-born Muslims also are celebrating Osama's 9/11 bombing, and then think of the recent upward trends in Canada's Muslim immigration. Jihadi celebrations will come to a mosque near you. Note the stated plans of Al-Muhajiroun and think about whether Canada screens out extremists like these -- or monitors what is spewed in Canadian mosques. There appears to be no quality control for extremists entering Canada -- nor for lying illegals who subvert the system and get to stay here anyway.
The extremist Islamic group al-Muhajiroun is organising four rallies across Britain this week to commemorate what it calls "The Magnificent 19" hijackers who carried out the September 11 atrocities.
The Home Office promises that "every word and every statement" spoken at the events in London, Manchester, Birmingham and Leicester will be monitored by police and intelligence services for breaches of incitement or public order legislation.
But the authorities are essentially powerless to prevent the conferences or to block the provocative advertising used to promote them.
Posters and stickers advertising the events have appeared in inner-city areas with large Muslim populations. They carry pictures of the 19 hijackers around a backdrop of the World Trade Centre in flames and a smiling Osama bin Laden. The posters state: "The Magnificent 19 that divided the world on September 11th."
The London rally will be held tomorrow, the second anniversary of the attacks, with the other conferences following over the weekend. Al-Muhajiroun plans 19 speakers, each telling the life story of one of the hijackers.
Abu Omar, the name used by a spokesman for the group, told the BBC this week that the actions of the hijackers were "completely justified" and "quite splendid" and that any Muslim who thought otherwise was an "apostate".

He [Mr. Choudary, a solicitor born and educated in Britain] claims that al-Muhajiroun, which has an office in Tottenham, north London, has "significant support" among young Muslims in urban communities and branches in 30 towns and cities which organise bookstalls, public meetings and discussion circles.
It argues that it does not recruit or train recruits for jihad or holy war. However, its stated aim is an Islamic revolution in Britain and the establishment of the Khilafah - a fundamentalist Islamic state.
Al-Muhajiroun is viewed with some disdain by many hardline Islamists, but its ability to inflame Muslim youth is a matter for concern for the authorities. Omar Khan Sharif and Asif Hanif, the British suicide bombers who died in Israel in May, both had links with al-Muhajiroun.
Note this -- and don't you feel reassured?
