The “Martyr” Usama
Isnt it amazing how people can twist blatant and obvious truths? Here is the “official” excuse of Ed and his side kick Majid
….In the meantime, we have decided to respect our advisors’ wishes that they continue to advise us in private so as to save them the indignity of constant Islamist-Wahhabite harrassment. We have therefore decided to no longer publicise their names. In coming months, we will continue to work with our advisors by drawing on their expertise as we build our units.
The majority of the advisers of the Quillam foundation in this country pulled out because of the heretical and extreme views of this foundation. Dont we remember Mufti Abu Laith, Yahya Michot, Shiekh Abu Subhaan and Shiekh Babikar ? I promise you this, it had nothing to do with and I quote “constant Islamist-Wahhabite harassment”. These advisers are known and anyone can easily contact them and find the real reasons why they wanted to have their names removed from the list! Of course faced with the embarrassment they used the case of Usama (who was a genuine supporter, no doubt) to cry foul play! It helped cover up the extreme isolation they are now feeling in the Muslim community.
Interestingly Quilliam foundation, you dont worry about your “hidden” advisers, we have more information then you think! I suggest you check out who your friends are.
We are now dealing with a “secretive” “cell like structured” organisation which wants to cause a “coup” in Islamic thought! What a joke!
I also wonder how Br. Usama can possibly keep company with some of these other ‘advisors’! For example (from Martin Bright’s New Statesman blog!):

“…except to record my astonishment at the reception given to Timothy Garton Ash, Guardian columnist and Professor of European Studies at Oxford University.
The sage professor began by saying that he didn’t know a great deal about the Quran, the traditions of the Prophet (”hadith”) or Islamic law (”fiqh”).
He even made a made a joke that he ‘didn’t give a fig for fiqh’ to which the audience chortled politely.
He told the gathered Muslims that the respect of the West had to be earned and (wait for it) – ‘the central tenets of religions demand less respect than the proposition two plus two equals four’. Everybody clapped.”

TQF must be a transparent and open one, it will not be trusted otherwise. I call for a complete and open approach by them. Including openly declaring their sources of funding, their advisors and finances.
