UK Releases Bin Laden's "Right-Hand Man In Europe"

Posted by Brian

Abu Qatada, described as Osama bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe, cannot be extradited to Jordan, according to a British judge.  Instead he will be put on house arrest for 16 hours a day, or what is being called "strict conditions".  However, and this is amazing, he can leave his home between 8AM and 4PM each day. WHAT! Does this judge think that he needs that time to go to his day job? Or maybe he need eight hours a day to make sure he is well-stocked on halal-certified food.
This guy is a terrorist!  Eight hours a day to plan and coordinate terror attacks around Great Britain, and/or the European continent. But that's okay, He is on "time-out" for 16 hours a day.
Bloody brilliant, mate!

By Patrick Goodenough March 12, 2012

(CNSNews.com) – Britain’s Conservative-led government plans to argue in a European Court of Human Rights case that employers are entitled to ban the visible wearing of crosses at work because displaying the symbol is not a recognized “requirement” of the Christian faith.

A document leaked to Britain’sSunday Telegraph outlines the argument the government plans to present at the tribunal in Strasbourg, France, where two Christian women will claim that their rights were violated when employers barred them from wearing crosses at work.

By Richard Wolf, USA TODAY

President Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron kick off two days of diplomacy this morning by pledging to work against repressive regimes in the Middle East -- by force if necessary.

In a sternly worded column in The Times of London, the two leaders liken the effort to free Arab people from authoritarianism to the Cold War and the fall of the Berlin Wall in the 1980s.

They liken their personal efforts to two leaders who came before them: Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher.
