BAKRI

HATE preacher Omar Bakri claimed 14 British servicemen died in revenge for 14 terror arrests in London.

The sick exiled cleric gloated to followers that he was “so happy” at the RAF Nimrod crash in Afghanistan on September 2 which killed everyone on board.

The jet was brought down by an on-board fire just a day after anti-terror cops swooped to round up 14 suspects in raids across the capital.

In an hour-long internet rant, evil Bakri — currently hiding in Lebanon — crowed: “After those 14 brothers had been arrested, Allah allowed us to have 14 kuffars (non-believers) killed in Afghanistan.

“You see from the British, they say it’s not Taliban who put down the Nimrod. We say it doesn’t matter. It is for the use of almighty Allah that they are in the heaven or the earth.

“Allah has his own soldiers and I was so happy. I was just thanking Allah.”

Bakri, 48, launched the hate-filled outburst on a website where dozens of extremists meet each night to hear him preach.

During the sermon, Bakri revealed he had visited Jameah Islamiyah Islamic school in East Sussex, which is being searched by anti-terrorism officers.

He said: “I remember when I heard about it (being raided). I was remembering the visits we paid there — for the Koran and for all those issues. I couldn’t believe it.”

Bakri said he felt sorry for Abu Hamza’s No 2, Abu Abdullah, who was held in the raids.

He claimed the arrest had been sparked by a recent interview Abdullah gave to US news network CNN, in which he claimed every “sincere Muslim” had been “pleased” by 9/11.

Bakri added: “I heard about the arrest of Abu Abdullah. It hurt me bad. I was speaking about his case last week and his interview on CNN.

“Those kuffars were so angry they couldn’t swallow it. They attack what they like to call extremists, radicals and terrorists.”

Bakri, who begged to be let back into Britain to escape the recent fighting in Lebanon, said he had been quizzed by authorities there. He revealed he had been shown pictures of 24 unnamed terror suspects — but said he did not co-operate with police.

He claimed to know the men — but not by name — and told extremists to follow his example. He said: “I don’t ask questions about names or their family or their background. This is the best security — not to ask people their names.”

Bakri ended his sermon with a dark warning to radicals thinking of hatching terror plots. He said; “Keep clean behind you. Do not leave any trace if you have anything to hide.”
