Al-Muhajiroun, Omar Bakri, Abu Hamza, Finsbury Park Mosque And Terrorism Across The Globe: Connections Explained

Al-Muhajiroun (The Emigrants) is a defunct Islamist organization whose two offshoots, The Saviour Sect and Al-Ghurabaa are banned under the British Terrorism Act 2006 [1], for the 'glorification' of terrorism. It operated in the United Kingdom from 14 January 1986 until the Blair administration announced an intended ban in August 2005.[1] Omar Bakri Muhammad and Anjem Choudary led Al-Muhajiroun[2]. It became notorious for its conference "The Magnificent 19", praising the September 11, 2001 attacks. Home Secretary Charles Clarke banned Bakri from the United Kingdom on 12 August 2005 because the British government considered his presence in Britain "not conducive to the public good.

If this video report is anything close to being accurate, the international terrorist connections involved across the globe is staggering, and al-Qaeda linked al-Muhajiroun appears to be at the center.
