#1 King Tubby Hookhand Cleric, Preacher of Hatred and Lover of the Trew Faith (ie the western welfare state DOLE) to the Lebanese - "Why don't they love me?!"

#2 I'm moving to England. I won't pose a security threat. I just want to be on the dole, so I can get 6 weeks vacation at once. I only get 4 weeks( no more than two in a row) after working here 9 years. With no hope of more.

#3 Well, so much for heart surgery with anesthesia.

"local Future TV channel"
I love the name. Although, local channels in the US no longer have a future.

#4 I've never seen a lebanese jail, but I'd say it makes a British jail look like club med. Bet he is rethinking his flight from justice about now.

#7 The same Lebanese who kicked out the Syrians a few months ago? The same Lebanese who like what they saw in Iraq (then - when they voted)? Those guys?

I love it when a plan (seems to) come together!

#8 Bit of an update. This appears not to be your brightest move, Omar. Enjoy it in Lebanon. Looks like you'll be there for awhile...

Last night Charles Clarke, the Home Secretary, said that he would refuse a request that had been received from the cleric to return to Britain for a heart operation on the NHS.
The cleric claimed to have an appointment at a London hospital for an operation to widen an artery which would cost up to £8,000 if he had to have private treatment. He said: "I have every right to come back. Britain is my home. My family are there and I have done nothing wrong."
Officials believe that Mr Bakri Mohammed is trying to test the Home Office’s promised immigration rules. His followers said yesterday that they might challenge any ban on medical grounds.
Senior officials said that the Home Secretary could exercise leniency if it were a life-or-death matter, but a routine operation was unlikely to be grounds for lifting any ban.
One said: "His heart condition was not serious enough to prevent him flying to Beirut last weekend and I am sure they have very fine hospitals in Lebanon where this procedure could be done".
Mr Bakri Mohammed, who has collected up to £300,000 in various benefits during his 19 years in Britain, had been given leave to remain indefinitely after claiming that his life would be in danger if he returned to the Middle East.

Must be why he vacations there...

#9 Things are murky at this stage, not plain enough for me and mine. Time will tell. Perhaps he needs a fine cannine companion.
