Hate preacher Anjem Choudary blames Britain for ‘radicalising’ MP David Amess’s killer
HATE preacher Anjem Choudary has sparked new outrage by blaming Britain for “radicalising” the killer of MP David Amess.
The convicted terrorist, 55, claimed UK foreign policy drove Ali Harbi Ali to stab the Southend MP to death.
It comes after pals said Ali’s mind was turned by videos Choudary himself had published online.
In a blog on a website hosted by US firm GoDaddy, Choudary wrote of Ali: “Who radicalised him?
“It is now evident from his clear testimony it was the British foreign policy in Syria and Iraq.”
Choudary said he believed the media would “paint Ali as a monster”.

MP Nigel Mills said: “It’s disgraceful that this atrocious human being is allowed to freely spout this vile language.
“Choudary’s poison has impacted and influenced people behind some of this country’s worst atrocities in recent years.”
Ali, 25, was given a whole life sentence for murdering dad-of-five Mr Amess at a constituency surgery in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex.
GoDaddy was approached for comment.
