Bakri Freed
Omar Bakri Muhammed is out of a Lebanese jail. Free, once again, to spout his message of jihad against the West and tolerance for Islamic terrorists. But at least he won't be going back to London to abuse the British socialist-state any time soon.

Omar Bakri Arrested in Lebanon
Omar Bakri, the radical British imam who fled that country on news that he was top on the list of pro-terror clerics to face treason charges, has been arrested in Lebanon. The Independent:
The Islamic extremist cleric who fled Britain at the weekend, Omar Bakri Mohammed, was arrested by security forces in Beirut today.Evan Kohlmann of the Counterterrorism blog notes that in an interview he once had with Bakri, the cleric had issued a threat that if he was ever arrested there might be violent consequences. He also notes, though, that Bakri was under the impression at the time that the British would never have the backbone to arrest him. I guess times have changed, eh?Lebanese security officials refused to say when and where Bakri was arrested.
Prosecutors and police in Britain are considering whether to bring terror-related charges against the so-called "Tottenham Ayatollah".
It was unclear whether the arrest was linked with his activities in the UK.
