The al-Qaeda inspired terror cell, from Luton, also discussed attacking MI5, buying guns or driving a 4×4 car into crowded places, Woolwich Crown Court heard.

Ringleader Zahid Iqbal, 31, helped organise for Jihadists to travel to Pakistan for extremism training overseas through an al-Qaeda contact he had there known as “Modern Sleeve”.

But the cell decided to plan an attack in the UK after Iqbal lost contact with his secret contact in Spring 2011, Max Hill QC prosecuting, said.

  1. It’s only a matter of time before they succeed in hitting a high profile target in the UK. Maybe just maybe the UK government will then wake up to the menace of Islam and do something about it. Having said that the US government didn’t do much about Islam and its immigrants after Twin Towers. They’re still almost inviting them to settle in the U.S., the Muslim Somalia so called asylum seekers are a prime example of this.

  3. Zahid Iqbal really does look like he is a congenital idiot. I would like to know what his IQ is.
