Omar Hussain – who used to work as a security guard in Morrisons and Asda before becoming a brain-washed militant – revealed in a series of online conversations how he missed the comforts of home
A BRIT Jihadist fighting on the front-line for Islamic State has revealed he misses his mum’s curries.
And he told how fighters used to pay locals to go on runs to Burger King and McDonald’s over the border from Syria in Turkey.
Omar Hussain – who used to work as a security guard in Morrisons and Asda before becoming a brain-washed militant – revealed in a series of online conversations how he missed the comforts of home.
Bespectacled Hussain, from High Wycombe, Bucks, said: “We we would pay civilians who were going Turkey for the weekend to bring us back burgers lol.
“Those were the good old days. Even though the burgers came back cold they were still delicious lol.”
The Jihadist – who now calls himself Abu Saeed al-Britani – said he was pining for his mum’s food.
Asked what he missed he said: “Mainly food. And my mum's food of course Well her speciality was Asian dishes.
“Also cake. The whole cereal aisle in Asdas lol. Cookies. Omd the cookies.”
The home-grown terrorist became a major recruiting sergeant in the West for IS after posting a video calling for then PM David Cameron to send in British ground troops so they could be slaughtered in Syria and Iraq.

Hussain, 30, said he had been shot once in the hand – and had narrowly avoided being blown up by a bomb when driving.
When asked about the reasons why he’d travelled to Syria he replied: “Well just the love of jihad tbh. And the honour to die sacrificing my life for God's sake.
“Death is always around the corner. Sometimes when driving I'll take a right turn by accident and then a bomb will land on the road where I wanted 2 go.
“Crazy experiences sometimes. It's all in God's hands. Sometimes I run on front lines wishing to die and after the battle I'm there scratching my head thinking ‘did I just come out alive from that one?’ Lol”
And he said it felt unusual going shopping armed to the teeth.
Hussain said: “Feels kinda awkward walking to a grocery shop with a weapon shop next door lol.
“Or buying cereal from the supermarket with my klash [assault rifle] around my shoulder or with my explosive belt on.”
And when asked about how families living under ISIS relaxed, he said they didn’t play football much because “Arabs don't play football. If they do, they suck at it lol”.
Perhaps not unsurprisingly children enjoyed playing with guns, he said.
“Nowadays kids r more into toy guns and stuff. We have table tennis and snooker but that's not a norm here.
“For families we have bouncy castles and what not. A bit like fairs,” he revealed.
Before fleeing the UK more than two years ago Hussain completed college and university courses in IT had been teaching students in Islamic State courses on graphic design before being moved to the front-line in Syria.
The nut first joined the Al Qaeda affiliated group Jabhat al-Nusra in Syria before switching to the more popular ISIS after just four months.
Hussain first came to prominence when he appeared in the disturbing ISIS propaganda video, urging Cameron to send troops to fight ISIS, vowing “we'll send them back one by one in coffins”.
