Britain Must Use its Troops to Find Home Grown Islamist Terrorists, Says BNP Defence Spokesman

Rather than wasting soldiers’ lives and taxpayers’ billions in Afghanistan, British troops should be used to crack down on Islamist extremists in Britain, says Peter Mullins, BNP defence spokesman.

Reacting to the announcement by the army that Muslims living in this country are one of the largest manufacturers and suppliers of Improvised Explosive Device (IED) electronic triggers being used in Afghanistan against British soldiers, Mr Mullins said the problem could only be addressed by tackling three related and important issues.

He identified these issues as mass Third World immigration, the illegal and immoral wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and engaging in a concerted crackdown on Islamists in this country.

“When the British army was faced with a hostile local IRA-supporting population in Northern Ireland, they did not hesitate to go in and track down the source of the bomb-makers’ equipment and support network,” Mr Mullins said.

“Now, however, because these devices are being made by Islamists in Britain whom the government is too scared to offend, they seem to be able to carry on freely to the point where they are responsible for the majority of British soldiers killed in Afghanistan.

“The time has come for a crackdown on these extremists living within Britain’s borders, and our troops should be here at home rooting out this home-grown cancer rather than spilling their blood in an American-directed foreign war which has nothing to do with us.”

Mr Mullins pointed out that the Islamist problem would not be resolved by cracking down on Islamists alone. “The whole issue of mass Third World immigration, which has created the population base from which Islamists recruit, has to be addressed as well. Otherwise it will be a problem of hydra-like proportions, with new heads replacing any number the security forces might cut off.”

Finally, Mr Mullins said, the issue of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars has to be addressed as well. “Quite apart from the billions being spent on these wars which have nothing to do with us, all they do is serve to generate the hatred and enmity of the entire Muslim world against Britain. This in turn feeds the Islamist sentiment inside this country and provides them with the excuse to wage Jihad against us locally.”

Mr Mullins said the only way to resolve this part of the tangle was to withdraw from those two theatres of conflict and simultaneously address the other issues.

“Only a BNP government will have the willpower and resolve to sort these problems out,” Mr Mullins said. “The track record of the other parties shows that they are either enslaved to foreign powers or are too scared to tackle the real problem of Islamist methods of waging war, either locally or internationally.

“A BNP government would not be constrained by any of these paranoid fears and would unashamedly put British interests first,” Mr Mullins said.
