British Terror Cell Wanted to Violate Sharia Law for AK-47s
A British terror cell allegedly planned to buy five AK47 assault rifles by borrowing £100,000 in loans, a court heard. …
In one conversation recorded by the police the group are discussing how to obtain weapons.
Naseer said that “out there in the market: “You can buy M16 you can buy AK.”
He added: “You can get grenades, you know grenades? Fifteen hundred pounds for one grenade.”
He said: “I’m trying to do that…take out loan.
“Get about 100 grand then you get four five AK’s ready.” …
Naseer justified attacking non-believers because they have “sex like donkeys”, orgies and took drugs. He said: “They wanna you know have sex like donkeys on the street, they wanna club, act like animals and why shouldn’t we terrorise them, tell me that?”

Oh where to begin?
For the record, I don’t believe anything about this story. It’s just too over the top. I’m a big believer that truth is stranger than fiction but rarely does it play out so perfectly; impossibly perfectly. Anyway…
It’s common knowledge that Sharia prohibits the fixed or floating payment or acceptance of specific interest or fees (known as riba, or usury) for loans of money. So it makes me wonder how these Islamists were going to take a loan for the weapons. Unless of course they are hypocrites.
Next, what are they talking about buying these military grade weapons that are illegal in the UK, and in the US, and well just about everywhere? How is this possible? How can someone acquire something that is illegal?
As for the donkeys, I’ll let you draw you’re own conclusions.
Holder: Your Government Can Kill You
He said the legal right to kill U.S. citizens overseas without benefit of a trial was based in Congress’ authorization to use all necessary and appropriate force against the perpetrators of 9/11 or those who helped them and the president’s power “to protect the nation from any imminent threat of violent attack.”
That authority is “not limited to the battlefields in Afghanistan,” Holder said, adding that “We are at war with a stateless enemy, prone to shifting operations from country to country.”

This is just about the craziest thing I have read in weeks.
Never before has a presidential administration been so completely inconsiderate of the Constitution. A United States Citizen’s rights do not simply vanish because they leave the country. In fact, our courts have held that you are still subject to U.S. laws even when out of the country. When the criminal laws apply so do the protective laws.
The Constitution provides:
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.
I don’t care what Congress passes; if you want to change the Constitution then you have amend it. There’s a procedure for that.
Until that procedure is followed, the 6th Amendment still applies.
Obama and Holder and just plain wrong, very very wrong on this issue.
Obama Offers Legal Backing for Targeted Killings
The Obama administration on Monday plans to outline how U.S. laws empower the government to kill Americans overseas who engage in terrorism against their home country, a source familiar with the matter said, months after a drone strike killed a U.S.-born cleric who plotted attacks from Yemen. …
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder plans to address the issue and the underpinning legal principles for using lethal force during remarks at Northwestern University School of Law on Monday afternoon in Chicago, the source said Sunday on condition of anonymity.

What?! This is just crazy. The only way to handle this is the stop this insanity and issue a new policy that simply states, “The United States government does not — will not — knowingly kill any American citizen without a conviction of a capital crime at a trial by jury.”
Look at this another way, would the U.S. allow a foreign government to kill a foreign citizen on U.S. soil? Of course not. The notion is absurd.
There are so many legal problems with this that books will be written on the topic.
