And still the world……blames the Jews. It’s a societal sickness, a madness.
In his own chilling words, would-be Muslim terror mastermind Walid Saadaoui boasted of his twisted desire to massacre British Jews, saying he wanted to ‘run rivers of their impure blood’ – with any murdered Christians ‘a bonus’.
The Tunisian-born former hotel entertainer, who was allowed to live in this country after marrying a British holidaymaker, said a knife would not be enough to satisfy his lust for what he saw as ‘revenge’ for Israel’s military operations in Gaza.

Telling a fellow extremist known as Farouk that ‘only the automatic gun’ would be capable of inflicting the slaughter he was planning, Saadaoui said: ‘I want to kill as many as possible.
‘Jews have reason to be fearful,’ top police officer says. Jewish communities in the country ‘put up with a way of life that nobody else has to put up with’, a police chief has said.
Sir Stephen Watson, the Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police, said Jews ‘have more justification to be fearful than anybody else’, which needed to be addressed.
Moment migrant caught plotting to kill ‘as many Jews as possible’ in UK’s ‘worst ever’ terror attack pledges allegiance to ISIS – as he and accomplice are jailed for 63 years
This is the moment a jihadist caught plotting the ‘worst ever’ terror attack on British Jews pledges allegiance to ISIS, saying they are ‘real Muslims’.
ADVERTISEMENTIn a chilling reminder of how rising anti-Semitism since the October 7 massacre is fuelling violence against Jewish communities in the UK, migrants Amar Hussein and Walid Saadaoui had sought to buy a stash of firearms and over 900 rounds of ammunition.
But what police chiefs described as their ‘genuinely chilling’ plot was foiled by an ‘exceptionally brave’ undercover operative (UCO) sent to infiltrate the terror cell.
As the ‘committed terrorists’ were today jailed for a total of 63 years, the moment Hussein admitted he was an ISIS supporter was revealed.
Further new footage shows detectives finally telling Saadaoui that he has been duped, and that the man he regarded as an armourer and fellow terrorist has in fact been secretly recording all their conversations.
Jailing both men for life today, Mr Justice Mark Wall ordered Saadaoui to serve a minimum of 37 years and told Hussein he would spend at least 26 years in prison before being eligible for parole.
The judge commended the UCO for his bravery in bringing the pair to justice, saying: ‘His is a dangerous and difficult job and he undertook it with great skill and patience.
ADVERTISEMENT‘He has potentially saved very many lives by risking his own.’
Fuelled by a twisted desire to exact revenge for Israel’s military response to the Hamas atrocity on Britain’s streets, the extremists planned to gun down participants at a march against anti-Semitism in Manchester.
Harpreet Sandhu KC, prosecuting, told Preston Crown Court that the case had fallen between two other attacks on the Jewish community – one at a synagogue in Manchester and the other on Bondi Beach in Sydney – but stressed it ‘could have been very much more serious.’
‘I say this to demonstrate how widely affected the Jewish community and the world would have been had these terrorists’ ambitions been realised,’ the barrister added.
‘Had the preparations for mass murder been enacted, the defendants would have committed one of the deadliest attacks involving firearms in the UK’s history and certainly the worst firearms attack against the Jewish community.’
Tunisian-born Saadaoui – a former hotel entertainer who once ran an Italian restaurant in Great Yarmouth – and Hussein – who claimed to be a former Iraqi soldier and told police he was ‘proud’ to be a terrorist – planned to target schools and synagogues in the Manchester’s Jewish community.
The jihadists had spent six months in contact with ‘Abu Bilal’, unaware he was an undercover operative (UCO).
The UCO, who gave evidence under the pseudonym Farouk, duped them into believing a cache of assault rifles, handguns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition was being transported to the UK via a cross-Channel ferry.
He first engaged with Saadaoui online, then began meeting him in person, telling his bosses he believed ‘a lot of people’ would be killed if they failed to intervene.
Police were so worried about the UCO’s safety they established a huge armed operation to protect him.
Armed officers followed the UCO as he travelled with the men from Greater Manchester to the White Cliffs National Trust nature reserve near Dover, posing as tourists to observe the security checks at the port below, where the weapons were to be imported from France.
Assistant Chief Constable Rob Potts said the UCO ‘put himself in significant danger each time he met with two would-be terrorists. At any point he could have become a target himself.’
But he managed to conceal his identity and, unbeknown to the plotters, the apparently deadly arsenal consisted of deactivated guns.
Dramatic bodycam footage showed the moment officers pounced and arrested Saadaoui as he arrived for the handover in the car park of a Lancashire spa hotel on May 8, 2024, with a brief pursuit ensuing before he was dragged to the ground.
Simultaneously, Hussein was arrested at his electrical business.
Under questioning, Hussein – who told detectives he was ‘proud’ to be a terrorist – was asked if he supported ISIS, the bloodthirsty terrorist group also known as Islamic State.
Admitting he does, Hussein tells police: ‘All Muslims, they are hypocrites, but ISIS, they are real Muslims, they make Sharia.’
He later added: ‘I’m proud, be terrorist here, I’m proud. It’s not from us, god sent to us. We are army from god.’
At his own interview, Saadaoui is finally informed that he has been duped by ‘Abu Bilal’ and that he was in fact working undercover for counter-terror police.
The UCO was so convincing that initially, arrogant Saadaoui failed to believe them, adding: ‘I’ll still call him my mate cause I’ve bonded with him, he was a good guy.’
Breathing heavily at the bombshell news, he can be seen sticking to his story, telling detectives: ‘Whether he’s undercover or not, I was not expecting any guns to come over, I was not involved in any planning of harming people, and what I’ve said to you is true.’
