Mizanur Rahman was sentenced to 6 years in jail yesterday for inciting Muslims to murder after telling a crowd assembled to protest the Mohammed cartoons in front of the Danish embassy in London to "bomb the UK". Three others were also convicted with Rahman on related offenses, all of them followers of exiled cleric Omar Bakri Mohammed.

You'll recall that Rahman, Umran Javed, Abdul Muhid, and Abdul Saleem all claimed at trial that they did not really have "extremists views" and that they were "simply following others rather than leading the protests." Something I thought might be true, given that the rally organizers seemed to be Anjem Choudary and Abu Izadeen.

But what does this "not-an-extremist" do while he's out on bail awaiting trial? Has some nice voice chats with other "not extremist" Muslim followers of Omar Bakri Mohammed and former members of the now banned Al-Muhajiroun, Al Ghurabaa, and The Saved Sect --- now calling themselves the followers of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaah.

Here's some audio of Mizanur Rahman on June 24th, 2006. He had been arrested on March 15th and was out on bail. The audio was recorded by Glen Jenvey and a colleague of his.

You go to the demonstration not to call them to Islam. You go to the demonstrations to anger them, to tease them, to make them terrified, to terrorize them, to support the jihad abroad. That is the whole point of the demonstration......

On July 15th, he had more to say on the obligation all Muslims had to fight the infidels all over the world, including a prayer to Allah that the only Jews left in Israel would be in graves. UPDATE: Charles Johnson of LGF converted the file to MP3 format and has it up at his site now, so I've removed the link to my copy of it. Go listen to it at LGF.

....And now when we are facing occupation in Muslim land: in Palestine, in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Kashmir, in Chechnya--all over the world occupation. And people fighting and bombing Muslims everywhere from the kuffar, from the Americans, and the British, and the Israelis. So, what must we do? Indeed, at that time when the kuffar enters the Muslim lands it is an obligation upon all Muslims--especially nowadays when it is global jihad, when the jihad is spread all over the world. Occupation has spread to every single country in the Muslim lands. When it becomes a war being declared openly to be global war affecting everybody. Now it has become such....that the jihad has become part of the [?ein] of every single Muslim.....it is [Arabic = obligation] to fight the jihad physically, financially, and verbally. All three according to your capability. Those of us that are far away from the fighting, far away and not able to reach it. Or some people have the excuse because they are disabled or they are blind or for the women, for example. Those people, maybe they have an excuse from the physical fighting, but it does not mean that we cannot support them. We can support them. We can support them verbally. We can support them [jihadis] financially. We can support them with our tongues. Incite the believers. We can tease the enemy. Anger the enemy. Promote the jihad and the mujahideen. Inform the people of their obligation. Let the kuffar know that they are not fighting a few Muslims in Beirut, or a few Muslims in Palestine, they are fighting 1.5 billion Muslims. One Ummah [Muslim nation] united.

If they fight us in Palestine, the Muslims which will anger in London. And we're going to speak out. We're going to condemn them. And whatever else somebody has no capability at all. No money, no even a tongue to speak he can do [Arabic=prayer] at least. The least he can do is make [prayer] for Allah to destroy them. To throw them out. Not for ... we're not going to make [prayer] for Allah, "Oh Allah give us two countries, two states in Palestine. To give us compromise. To give us back some land in Israel, and let them have the rest." No, we go to make [prayer] for Allah to destroy them [Israel] completely. To make [prayer] to Allah to not one of them [Jews] is left in Israel, unless they are underground [dead]. Let Allah destroy them and give victory to the Muslims, all of the Muslims, and give us all of our land back and destroy all of our enemies.
