Profit of hate - Ranting Muslim cleric who mocks our heroes rakes in thousands in benefits By Daniel Sanderson, 15/03/2009
A MUSLIM hate preacher who led a baying mob against homecoming British soldiers is raking in THOUSANDS in BENEFITS, the News of the World can reveal.
Foul-mouthed mullah Ishtiaq Alamgir—branded “the enemy within” for his loathsome rants against Britain—claims to be working as a teacher.
But we’ve discovered that what the lying 29-year-old crazed cleric REALLY claims is £220 a fortnight in unemployment handouts jointly with wife Musert Bashir, 30.
He gets £167 a week full housing benefit to keep him in his comfortable £200,000, three-bedroom home as he orchestrates campaigns against the country that feeds him. And he pocketed thousands of pounds in income support for months in 2006.
Scrounger Alamgir—who says he felt “elated” when he watched the 9/11 planes crash into the Twin Towers—was in the public eye last week leading a group of louts in Luton as they spat abuse at 200 Royal Anglian troops on their homecoming march.
He laughed and goaded police as protestors—holding ‘Butchers of Basra’ banners—clashed with soldiers’ families.
In a vile rant, Alamgir said: “They come here to Luton where Muslims live and expect to be greeted like heroes.”
They don’t expect to be treated like heroes, even though they are. But they DO pay their taxes—which is more than can be said for Alamgir.
He told reporters he was an English and Maths teacher. But in reality he quit his job as an accountant two years ago to become a Muslim extremist and follow in the footsteps of his hero—evil firebrand cleric Omar Bakri, now exiled in Lebanon.
Alamgir, who has two children, became leader of Luton’s now banned extremist group al-Muhajiroun when Bakri was booted out of Britain. Every week, instead of finding work, he hands out radical Islamic leaflets and spouts bile.
Along with his group of 20-strong followers, he strives to turn impressionable Muslim teenagers against Britain.
The News of the World caught up with Alamgir and his cronies at his parents’ home in Luton.
The cleric stared back blankly when we asked him about his benefits, then slammed the door and shouted: “Haven’t you left yet?”
Last night it emerged that the Luton lunatics could be sued.
Home Secretary Jacqui Smith wants to introduce new powers to allow legal action against extremists who offend the public.
Meanwhile thousands of people lined the streets of Derby and Bolton yesterday to welcome home the 9/12th Lancers Regiment from Iraq.
In Derby a crowd estimated at more than 5,000 waved Union Jacks and cheered as 150 men and two Scimitar tanks paraded through the city centre.
There was no repeat of the Luton scenes. Shokat Lal, chairman of Derby Pakistani Community Centre, said: “What the people did in Luton is not representative of the Muslim community in Derby.”
