Britain Bracing Itself For 'Chemical Jihad'

Islamic terrorists are poised to flood Britain with heroin in a 'chemical jihad', warn security sources. Al Queda has recuited Muslim gangs to act as dealers.

Terrorists are planning to flood Britain with heroin in a bid to bring 'chemical jihad' to the UK, warns a senior security source. Afghan and Pakistani based Taliban and Al Queda terrorists have a £6 billion stash of heroin - and are relying on Muslim gangs in Britain to act as their dealers. The dealers have allegedly been ordered only to sell the drugs to non Muslims. A senior security spokesperson has told the Daily Star: 'The Afghan poppy fields are possibly the largest financial contributor to Al Queda and the Taliban. “The UK’s heroin trade is increasing at an alarming rate and most of the cash helps arm terrorists with bombs and guns.” America has already been ­targeted for 'chemical jihad'. Between 1990 and 2005, Taliban-linked drug peddler Haji Baz Mohammed raised £17billion by pouring heroin into North America. He told a US court that “selling heroin was a jihad because they were taking Americans’ money and the heroin was killing them”. Now Islamic extremists have Britain in their sights as a vital target. An estimated 30 tonnes of heroin is being smuggled into the country each year. The drug is grown in the Afghan badlands and bought for £1,500 a kilo in neighbouring Pakistan. It is then sold in the UK, at between £30 and £50 a gram. Asian gangs are operating in South London, Luton, Preston, Manchester, Leeds, Oldham, Birmingham and Bradford. One notorious gang is named the 'Gambino Clan'; it has one hundred members and is named after the American Mafia family. A small-time dealer turned Christian told the Daily Star: “The Gambinos are the Pakistani Muslim gang that control most of the drug trade in Luton – and they’ve all got good connections to al-Qaida. Heroin and crack are on sale 24 hours a day and they get local taxi drivers to drive the gear around and do deals. “It’s a massive business. They’re untouchable.”
