Aired: September 5, 2005 on Channel 4 In 1997, when Islamist extremism was still somebody else’s problem, Jon Ronson spent a year ... all » profiling cleric Omar Bakri Mohammed. In a post-7/7 world, the resulting film gets a re-screening with a new introduction from Ronson. The government says Bakri won’t be allowed to return to the UK and certainly his anti-Semitic, anti-homosexual views are distasteful; but Ronson (himself Jewish) also manages to convey, via mundane details, the absurdities of Bakri’s mission to turn Britain into an Islamist state — jihad training in a Crawley scout hut etc. More documentaries: http://atheistmedia.blogspot.com -
