This is some serious shit, the British need to wake the fuck up, they are living with the enemy (and making life quite cozy for them).......
British Muslims are actively supporting the Taliban and al-Qaeda in attacks on coalition forces in Afghanistan, says the former commander of UK forces.
Brigadier Ed Butler claimed British troops had also uncovered evidence that militant Islamic groups in Helmand province are suspected of assisting terrorist plots in the UK.
Earlier this year suspicions were raised that the Taliban was recruiting an increasing number of fighters from Britain after RAF experts overheard secret transmissions spoken in broad Midlands and Yorkshire accents.
Brig Butler, 46, who led British troops in Helmand province for six months, told the Daily Telegraph newspaper that a growing number of British-born Muslims were assisting the Taliban.
He said: "There are British passport holders who live in the UK who are being found in places like Kandahar.
"There is a link between Kandahar and urban conurbations in the UK. This is something the military understands, but the British public does not."
Brig Butler, widely regarded as one of the best British officers of his generation, announced his decision to retire from the Army earlier this year.

This has been well-known among the UK troops for some time. It is one of the factors which affects large numbers of men leaving the UK military because, quite bluntly, why put your life on the line in a foreign land when "fellow" citizens are trying to kill you and what does it mean to die for "Queen and Country" when there are large parts of the UK no longer "British" and from where these Moslem murderers come? The UK government cyncially views this as having a positive use: it breaks down army morale, the military ethic of loyalty to the nation (Crown, in the British case) and eventually renders such a military an arm of politics and a source of mercenary fighters.

REVOLUTION FOR CITIZENS OF THE UKALIPHATE "IS WARRANTED"! I've often wondered 'how much more will the Brits and their proud soldiers take'? Regardless of what their elected officials say or don't say, Brits have internet access to find out the 'truth' about what's going down there. They should use it as a source of info, to counter-balance the BS they get from their liberal media and govt liars. The UKaliphate has been sold-out by govt criminals. It's no surprise the BNP is enjoying an increase in membership. When it comes down to a 'lesser of two evils' (which always seems to be the case, no matter where you are) at least the BNP has the best interests of the INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF GB, at heart. Even with this economy playing hell on my fixed income, and although I'm not a British citizen, I'm contributing to the BNP.
