Osama Bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe released

PanARMENIAN.Net - Abu Qatada, Osama Bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe was released on bail from Long Lartin prison in Worcestershire.

Suspected Al Qaeda leader Abu Qatada is celebrating his release from prison with the release of a book in which he urges Muslims to commit terrorist attacks in the West.

In the 71-page tract, published in English translation on the internet, he repeatedly claims that fighting jihad, holy war, is obligatory for all Muslims and urges them to 'terrorize' non-believers.

Security sources say his clear incitement to violence makes a mockery of the decision to set him free.

The preacher of hate, who has been described as Osama Bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe, was released on bail from Long Lartin prison in Worcestershire on Tuesday, Feb 14, after the blocking of his deportation to Jordan, where he is wanted on terror charges.

Also, as Daily Mail reports, Abu Qatada is to launch a legal-aid funded court bid to prevent the public seeing pictures of him enjoying his freedom. Qatada will claim that any picture of him violates his 'right to privacy' under the Human Rights Act - the same act he used to gain his freedom.
