Curse the judge, shout fanatics as the Muslim girl who knifed MP smiles as she gets life
2010-11-04
A judge was subjected to a tirade of abuse in his own courtroom yesterday as he jailed an Al Qaeda-inspired Muslim woman for attempting to assassinate an MP.

Islamist protesters harangued Mr Justice Cooke from the public gallery at the Old Bailey, shouting 'Allahu akbar' ('God is great'), 'British go to hell' and 'Curse the judge'.

The outbursts came as Roshonara Choudhry, 21, was sentenced to life imprisonment for stabbing former minister Stephen Timms. Choudhry smiled broadly as the judge told her: 'You said you ruined the rest of your life. You said it was worth it. You said you wanted to be a martyr.'
Much more
But now she won't be a martyr, just another lifer in a place where most are much tougher and more experienced than she. No doubt it will be a learning experience.

#6  Choudhry is an Indian surname.
Also Pakistani. It means the four part.It was a name given to administrators under the Moguls. Normally they were given one tenth of taxes collected, but those who did excellent work were given a quarter, hence the name. Normally a name for the land owning class.

#4  I wonder what the origin of the name Choudhry is? Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, India?

GB has an islamicist problem. Unrestricted immigration buys you this problem.

#3  I bet the judge would have been far more erudite in Texas.

"I do not sentence you to be hung for stealing the sheep you stole, but I sentence you to be hanged in order that further sheep not be stolen by your hand, which by all accounts would happen as assuredly as the setting of the next sun, and shortly thereafter, by you, were you not to be hanged."

#1  How long is a life sentence in the UK? I'm sure it doesn't mean 'until death.' 10 years or so?
