Theresa May, the UK's Home Secretary has
been accused of fuelling terrorism by planning to ban the mild
stimulant khat.
Grown on trees across East Africa, the
shrub called Mirra in their native language, is used amongst the
Somali, Ethiopian and Kenyan communities as a mild stimulant, whose
affects are so minor it hardly registers on any scientific
measurements.
With direct flights arriving from Kenya
four times a week to the UK capital, about 3,000 cartons of khat per week are
distributed to as far away as Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds and
Glasgow.
While already banned many European
countries as well as in the US and Canada, the UK is the latest to
follow suit and fuel terrorism across the world as a consequence.
Campaigners against khat, such as
former addict, Abukar Awale, claims it causes mental health problems,
violence and family breakdowns. Fearing for his life after numerous
death threats from khat users, Abukar Awale is viewed as a hero
amongst the extremist British Somali community for lobbying for an
outright ban.
Like a reformed smoker, who preaches to
smokers to stop, Abukar Awale found fame and fortune campaigning
against khat, having been addicted to it for many years.

Opponents against khat maintain:
- Its destroying the Somalia Community
- Destroys families
- Causes mental health problems such as schizophrenia
- Drives people to suicide
- Makes users moody, aggressive and closed-off
- Ruins the sex drive
- Funds terrorism
Though Dr Axel Klein, who specialises
in the study of addictive behaviour at the University of Kent,
counter-acts these claims by saying, “There was no clear medical
evidence that khat is harmful and believes a ban could be
counter-productive.”
Promoted on BBC Newsnight, Alex Miller, the editor-in-chief of Vice UK, looked into the use of khat and the
potential impact of the ban both in the UK and the horn of Africa
where it is grown and harvested.
The Kenyan Economy will Collapse.
Thousands of Kenyan men work hard to
supply the UK's Somalian community with their favourite entertainment
to chew in their Mafrish (Chewing Bars) across the UK. As popular as
sipping a pint of beer in the local pub, a bundle of khat costs as
little as £3.00 and will last all night long.
A Ban is an Over-Reaction.
The Meru region of Kenyna is reliant on
the UK trade, with 80% of it's export relying on it and once the ban
comes into affect, the Meru region will go from being the richest
region in Kenya to being broke.
Paying taxes to both the Kenyan and
British governments, one worker makes clear, “Mirra helps us, it
puts food on the table and sends our children to school.”
The UK has a Khat Habit.
While Theresa May will argue the
profits from the khat trade fuels terrorist groups such as Al
Shabaab, the reality of the situation couldn't be further from the
truth.
As Omar Ahmed, a khat exporter,
explains, “That is the most unsubstantiated statement I've ever
heard from that part of the world (UK). Mirra business can never, at
any one time, fund terrorism, because the terror guys, the extremists
guys, are against mirra in the first place.
They don't accept anything to do with
mirra, they say, if you chew mirra, you are doing haram, like an
abomination to God. So how can something they they don't even allow
in their description of Islam then take the money to fund terror?
I think that is a misnomer.”
Theresa May introduces Shira Law
into British Law.
In response to Abukar Awale's claim
that it's a harmful and dangerous drug, Omar Ahmed responds, “Its a
legit business. Its just that there're some few extremists from our
communities who are trying the fight the mirra because of their own
issues with mirra.”
Theresa May fuels Terrorism.
It all makes sense when you realise the
British government has been infiltrated by psychopathic criminals, in
that a ban of khat in the UK, will only increase the profits of the
smugglers and will recruit even more people to the Al Shabaab
terrorist group.
While a box of khat is sold legally for
£65, once the ban is enforced the price will go up to as much as
£300 a box. The twenty year ban in the US, demonstrates that whether
its illegal of not, the end user will pay whatever it costs to get
their daily fix.
The Hidden Agenda is to cause
tensions within UK's communities.
Theresa May, acting in the interests of
criminal elements within the UK government, knows more than anyone
that the affect will be more stop and searches on the Somali
community. It will breed resentment and tensions within the community
which when its blows over, will entitle her to enact even more
draconian measures to curtail civil liberties and human rights.
Theresa or Terry?
Speculation that the Daily Express
head-line, 'Female MP abused boy in care,' refers to her, is further
substantiated by the explosive interview between Louise Collins from the UK Column News and Bill Maloney, a crusader against
institutionalised child-abuse and director of 'Pie'n'Mash' films, in
which a victim and whistle blower of child-abuse said, “She grabbed
hold of my head Bill and pulled me down to her c and said come and
suck on this. The stench was repellant, disgusting.”
As hard as it may seem that a perverted
transvestite could attain the position of Home Secretary in the
British Government, it's further substantiated in Chris Spivey's
article, 'Stunned, I'm fucking speechless.'
Then again, with revelations that
another Home Secretary, Leon Brittan, was filmed at a paedophile orgy,
it makes perfect sense.
Bucking the Global Trend of
Legalising Drugs.
While the US President Obama backs the
legalisation of marijuana, by saying that he did not think it was
more dangerous than alcohol, Theresa May goes against all advice and
common sense by banning a stimulate, which many argue isn't much
stronger than an espresso coffee.
In 2005 the Advisory Council for the
Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) said "the evidence of harm resulting from
khat use is not sufficient to recommend its control," and there
was "no evidence of its spread to the general population".
Have no doubt about it, a ban on khat
will create more tensions between young Somali men and the police if
they are stopped and searched for khat and it is providing organised
crime groups with a major opportunity to raise revenue through
smuggling. The consequences of a ban far outweigh any possible
dangers of excessive use.
The only logical explanation is that
Theresa May is intentionally fueling Terrorism.
Theresa May is way out of touch with reality. All politicians and MPs are way out of touch with people worldwide.
