[Closed] Old Bailey: "Cash in knickers" Jihadist's wife found guilty of funding terrorism

And there I was thinking we'd get a week without you. 🙁

Another thing, what about all the other countless crimes committed around the world funded by drug lords and terrorists? Why is nobody on STW talking about those?

Very very concerning that an otherwise liberal and westernised British citizen of Moroccan descent was trying to smuggle 20,000 euros using her best friend as a "mule" to her husband who is believed to be fighting as a Jihadist in Syria (for ISIS ?)

The things we do for love, eh? 🙂

Why is nobody on STW talking about those?

I suspect, and this is not meant to be in anyway derogatory, because they aren't anything like as pretty as the girl who was acquitted and because the media were able to lead with a story about ‘cash in knickers’ which is always good for the ratings.

What about gang crime in Venezuela? Don't have much to say about that do you jambalaya?

Much worse than a bit of drug smuggling isn't it - 14,000 dead in a year. Your silence on the issue is deafening TBH.

Pfft! Bloody muslamics. She's clearly a bloody amateur!! You can stuff miles more cash inside a suicide vest than you can inside your knickers!!! And if she simply removed some of the Semtex and nails from her rucksack, she could get a good few wads in there!

I see where Jambalaya is leading us .... We should set aside their human rights (theyre only Muslims after all), build some concrete walls around Morocco, restrict their water and electricity, put them on starvation rations followed by a month of sustained bombardment by drones, and ground forces. Of course any men killed must be terrorists any women killed probably had loads of cash in their pants and any children just terrorists in waiting. There's absolutely no way that it will cause any resentment, radicalisation or create a perpetual cycle of violence

20 grand in her Alan's, how many lap dances must she have had to have done to amass that.

What I don't understand is why she just didn't take 9,999 Euros quite legitimately. Or just Paypal gift it?

If anyone wants to put wads of cash into my [s]string y-fronts[/s] Calvins I'm happy to be of assistance. Just don't touch the goods. 😀

Something fishy about the whole story.

She can't have been a proper muslamic anyway! She looked a right sort!. They all wear big black sacks and flip flops!

It's the poor chap left sucking his thumb in turkey I feel sorry for.

He had his heart set on a new ATGM and a couple of bottles of Philip Bs Russian Amber Imperial Conditioning Crème.

But it's back to Syria with his RPG and itchy beard for him.

Why, oh why is the OP not talking about the frankly mental and shocking drug wars in Mexico. Come on jambalaya, your silence on this subject is also deafening.

....trying to smuggle 20,000 euros using her best friend as a "mule" to her husband who is believed to be fighting as a Jihadist in Syria

Surely she was just following UK government policy ?

And I don't know why you're mentioning "funding terrorism" jambalaya, everyone knows that the Syrian rebels aren't terrorists - you won't find any article by the western media ever referring to them as terrorists.

As George Galloway pointed out on Radio 2 today, they only become terrorists when they cross the border and enter Iraq.

Or what about the cheese wars in Gloucester.

They're cheesehadists

Any muslamist brainwashed nutjob willing to travel to the shitehole that is the middle east to blow him/herself up has my blessing, the more the merrier. In fact there should be a separate aisle at Dover for them.... "Islamist jihadist nutjob sir?, walk this way theres a ferry with a one way ticket on it for you, all the best old chap

Muslin fundamentalists?

Bravo 😀

Hang on, Jihad it in her undies ?

Hang on, Jihad it in her undies ?

Nah, she said shahada put it in the waistband her leggings but that's not as salacious.

Only found during a Gaza Strip search.

It is absolutely disgusting so many posts and not one mention of people smuggling from the OP

Does he not care about these people being smuggled across borders for what is in their knickers ?

your silence on this issue is deafening.

Oh, so not shiite pants cash stash after all, then ? - the sun will be disappointed

I have 1999 pound coins up my bottom - I don't feel too grand...

Oh, so not shiite pants cash stash after all, then ? - the sun will be disappointed

Sunni but yet so far.

I have 1999 pound coins up my bottom - I don't feel too grand...

Got a coin you could pop in the slot, as long as you don't spend it on crack... want it back though, but you best wash it, as I don't want it smelling of the last me-lend-ye-hum

I'm glad the government had the foresight to let Monsanto kill the bees.

More dangerous than the terrorists that GCHQ, the NSA and Mossad agents like jambalaya are protecting us all against.

I still want to know more about Urban Moving Systems...

John Barrowman radicalised.

I will never do jazz hands again.

500 UK nationals are now fighting with the Jihad in Syria as reported by the BBC news tonight.

Two guys where giving out pro ISIS leaflets on Oxford Street, glad to hear moderate Muslims condemning them

there are around 100 British nationals serving with the IDF as we speak, apparently with no legal difficulties.

I was glad to hear moderate Jews opposed the Zionist in their illegal war

Your silence on this issue was deafening
http://blogs.channel4.com/factcheck/factcheck-britons-fight-israel/18448

290000 jews in the UK

2,700,000 muslims

i will let you do the maths for % there but it loks liek Jews are a bit more war mongering than Muslims - terrible eh you must be outraged i assume

you are Mossad and I clam my right to be chased through the world till you manage to assassinate me [ and possibly anyone related to me] because you are a civilised nation of law abiding types.

I hope you had a word with them.

Did you ?

Quick check to see if he has added it to his list of things he has done to personally oppose terrorism

What about gang crime in Venezuela? Don't have much to say about that do you jambalaya?

If you can manage to show me a compelling link to funding British Jihadists and Latin America I will gladly engage you

All find and dandy until they finish with Syria and Iraq and move onto their next target, such as Morocco. Which is rather close to Spain, which they also hilariously want back. Islamists right now are an indirect threat to the west, however if all goes well for them and they manage to take Syria and Iraq, in 10 to 25 years I can see that changing. Especially with the worlds climate favouring northern climates even more than it does now, Islamism combined with resource wars will be a potent mix. Russia, Bosnia etc will become flash points for insurgency aimed at increasing Islamists sphere of control.

Unless we manage to pacify them with aid when they are all dying from dehydration/starvation.

you are Mossad and I clam my right to be chased through the world till you manage to assassinate me

This gave me a wry smile though.

Whilst I was reading an Arab news website today...

Because of course that's what you do.

How about we have an interesting discussion on Islamism's effect on geopolitics or something, as opposed to trolling each other.

How about one on Zionism's effect on geopolitics ?

What I puzzle over is now someone going aboard now to fight or participate (by participate as an example I suggest someone doing something other than wielding a weapon, medic etc..) in a civil war is a potential terrorist, whereas if we look back at the Spanish civil war they were poets/freedom fighters etc.

On the flipside it's quite a good policy letting your troublemakers be drawn towards a honeypot far from your voters, where they can thin themselves out a bit..

If you can manage to show me a compelling link to funding British Jihadists and Latin America I will gladly engage you

Anyway still no mention of the suffering caused by Ebola from you

Heartless shakes head in disbelief

No mention of the IDF soldiers either or the higher percentage of Jews fighting abroad #PREDICATBLE

TOM I dont think anyone is trolling they are using his MO against him
Its mockery /desperation tbh as nothing will stop him posting his [s]lies[/s] myopically one sides view of muslim and passionate defence of all israel does, Debate is impossible he just wants to say his "facts" as he has been drip fed them by whomever.

How about one on Zionism's effect on geopolitics ?

I'm all for that, as long as we keep it nuanced and articulate with some decent references to back everything up.

Okay maybe not quite that far, but as long as it doesn't descend into "teh zionists run teh worrrldddzzz" my brain will stay engaged. If not, I am liable to zone out or start taking the piss with inflammatory comments.

Someone enlighten me and give me something to think about.....I'm generally interested in the effects climate change could have on security and how that might interact with the situation in the middle east.

SLEEP?

Ahhh somedays I go hyper junkyard....a bit manic if you will. Also, my housemates are having really loud sex in Portuguese. I can't sleep. 😆

If you google image Isis you will find image after image of the most appalling scenes of slaughter, truly sickening.
If you google image gaza you will find image after image of dead and injured babies and children. Truly sickening.
If you google Israel you get maps.

I will apologise now in advance for what I am about to say, well no for more the way I say it as I do not wish to trivialise the subject with my choice of words or the way I put my point across.

Hitler wanted to commit genocide, of Jews, Romanies, gays and probably many others.
He did not want to bother with death camps or the logistical nightmare of rounding up all his intended victims and shipping them to the places where they would eventually be murdered . As it took a lot of time effort and ultimately manpower.

So the original plan was that his victims would be rounded up by whatever troops were in the area and who had just taken which ever town or city it happened to be and loaded in to trucks or marched away to a spot where they would dig a mass grave and victims would be forced to strip and stand in the grave they had just dug and shot.

But this was very quickly found to be not doable as the German soldiers where not happy with doing it and could not reconcile(don't even know if that is the applicable word ) them selfs with the senseless slaughter of innocent non combatant men woman and children.

The generals complained it was destroying the morale of the army and turning the troops against them.
And what they found worse was there were a small amount of men and woman who were shown to really enjoy the job in hand, complete monsters who turned their stomach to be around.

This was a problem that hitler needed a solution to.
His answer was the death camps and ultimately the gas chambers.

It looks to me Isis are not having the same problem hitler did.
If Isis are not stopped, there is going to be a shitstorm ahead.

I read somewhere that the leader of ISIS was in fact born a Jew and is a Mossad agent.

I definitely read it, two days ago it was. So it must be true.

There was more discussion n the oab household about the attitude of the girl with expensive knicker accoutrements.

Chanel bling on the tag? Social media pouting, preening and protesting innocence? Song singing about freedom? We also wondered if the bbc would have given a less attractive defendant the same air space?

No updates from your controllers about what you have to tell us today in your brave one man [s]fight against terrorism [/s] propaganda war

Yeah..... I don't think it's a coincidence that she was "tricked" so easily - or perhaps her behaviour has been carefully orchestrated so that people believe that she's quite that stupid

Centuries of misery because of religion.

Ernie has hit the nail on the head. If you've read it, post a bloody link Jambaliar (Buuurrrrn)

what about all the other countless crimes committed around the world funded by drug lords

Must be pretty crap crimes if they need to be subsidised by drug dealing

Hear that BBSB? Listen...can you hear it? That's the sound of something whizzing over your head...you might not hear it though...it's a long long way up there. 🙂

And short sighted meddling and power plays by the west.

There's a great quote re Syria on the Adam Curtis blog [url= http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/adamcurtis/posts/the_baby_and_the_baath_water ]The Baby and the Baath Water[/url]

An American Political Officer involved in the planning of the first military coup in 1949 voiced his concerns (and was immediately removed)

"I want to go on record as saying that this is the stupidest, most irresponsible action a diplomatic mission like ours could get itself involved in, and that we've started a series of these things that will never end."

Deane Hinton knew.

Don't the Taliban consistently prove that Muslamic extremist nut-jobism and drug dealing are far from exclusive pastimes. It being well known that the Prophet (peace be upon him) gave a clear exemption is his moral code, so that why its evil to indulge in or profit from having a few beers, you can make a bloody killing selling shit-loads of smack, spend it all on rocket propelled grenades, and then use them to terrorise everyone

But they'll never be as cool as the Mexican drug dealers, because they wear pyjamas and silly hats, while their South American counterparts have cool tattoos in gothic script, cars that bounce up and down, cowboy boots with skulls on, and tequila

The stupid woman should have just sent the money through her local Hawala money-transfer bloke; it's safe, secure, quick and cheap. My Sudanese customer sends me about £300,000 a year through Hawala.

Listening to the Chief Rabbi on R4 this morning a thought struck me: Ordinary, moderate Palestinians are suffering the collateral effects of Israel's efforts to stamp out the Hamas rocket launchers and now ordinary, moderate Jews are suffering the collateral effects of public disapproval of Israel's actions, which is ironic.

Well done globalti for being the first person in weeks to say anything sensible on this subject, instead of the incessant trolling and posturing.

She probably could have got some idiot off here to send it to him as a Paypal Gift, for a set of forks 😆

For those like me:

I once read a very long time ago a magazine article of an interview with an afghani poppy farmer.

Now this poppy farmer was very pissed off because some American chaps had just paid him a visit and completely destroyed his entire crop ( as part of Americas war on drugs not war on terror as this was pre terror) and now had no idea how he was going to support his familily untill he could get his next crop on the go an harvested.

He then went on to explain he would have gone on sell his entire crop of poppies to people who would have turned it into heroine for the grand sum of £400 which was enough to feed and clothe himself, wife and kids.

His argument was America don't destroy my livelyhood because you cannot control your children.
My kids don't take heroine and I grow the shit.

He did kind of have a point.

Yeah..... I don't think it's a coincidence that she was "tricked" so easily - or perhaps her behaviour has been carefully orchestrated so that people believe that she's quite that stupid

Is that opinion based on you having heard all the evidence and testimony presented in court (like the jury who acquitted her did), or just the brief summary as presented your news source of choice*?

*which will have had some agenda or 'slant' to put on it.

If my experience in Africa is anything to go by, that Afghan farmer can't grow and sell wheat because all the country's requirement for wheat is being imported from Russia or Ukraine by a corrupt former minister who is profiting massively from the arrangement while undercutting small local producers.

In Nigeria there is almost no public electricity supply because the import of generators is controlled by a cartel of ministers while the import of diesel (Nigeria's two refineries having collapsed years ago thanks to neglect and mismanagement) is controlled by former president Obasanjo, so there's no incentive for any government to invest in a public electricity generation programme, which wouldn't come on stream until after they had lost their jobs or even died from stress.

Ah, the joys of NEPA 🙂

ordinary, moderate Jews are suffering the collateral effects of public disapproval of Israel's actions, which is ironic

You cannot defelct criticism by simply crying anti semitism

That said i offer no defence, for it is wrong, for the amount of anti semitism we do see. Anti semitism does not justify killing children either.
