UK-BORN FORMER ISLAMIST TERRORIST REVEALS HOW YOUNG BRITS ARE BEING RADICALISED AT HOME
Description
Sohail Ahmed was born in the UK to parents who had emigrated from Kashmir.
He had all of the benefits of growing up in London and attending a secular western school.
On the surface, he was an example of multiculturalism succeeding.
But behind-the-scenes at home and in East London mosques, Sohail was being radicalised.
Despite knowing he was a gay man and being told any gay man should be thrown off the top of buildings to their death, Sohail planned a terrorist attack on Canary Wharf using an IED.
He was prepared to die for an ideology that hated who he was.
The story of how he deradicalised is one of the most important in the UK today.
It is disturbing and eye opening, but Dan says we MUST listen to him. And we must throw money at his ideas. Because otherwise, young British-born Muslim men WILL commit more of these terrorist atrocities.
Due to this special edition of Outspoken, there is no Uncancelled Aftershow today, but that will return tomorrow.
