ONE of Islamic State’s top recruiting sergeants - ranting Brit Omar Hussain – could have perished in the Middle East after falling silent on social media for a previously unheard of period of time.

The crackpot is a prolific supporter of the murderous regime who has uploaded detailed guides for Western militants to dodge security forces and travel to Syria and Iraq to join ISIS.

After having several accounts suspended on Twitter Hussain -who now calls himself Abu Saeed al-Britani - began posting on the secure Telegram messaging service.

But his profile fell silent on 30 July and he has not logged on since – a previously unheard-of time offline for the radical.

One UK-based reporter who has been speaking to Hussain online for close to two years revealed: "The longest he’s ever been off online in the past is a week or so and that’s when he had been fighting on the frontline.

"A gap of more than two months leads you to suspect that he’s either dead, injured or been taken prisoner."

Hussain uses the profile Repunzel on Telegram and has the same log-on details for around 18 months.

In one of his most recent outpourings he revealed to the same reporter that he didn’t care if his own loved ones were killed or injured in terror attacks by ISIS nuts in this country.

The religious crackpot walked out on his family – including his beloved mum – when he fled to join Islamic State fighters in Syria three years ago.

Speaking on Telegram, Hussain said if his relatives were killed it is the price they must pay for not making hijrah – pilgrimage from persecution – to the Middle East.

The former Morrisons security guard, 30, from High Wycombe, Bucks ranted: “Let all my relatives die along with the disbelievers for all I care.

“Their own fault for living amongst the disbelievers and not doing hijrah away from the disbelievers.

“Anyone who lives with the disbelievers has only himself to blame for being collateral damage in an attack.

“But of course, these lone wolf's do not intentionally target these so called "Muslims" but if they happen 2 come in the middle, no problem.”

And he revelled in attacks in London and Manchester – saying the terrorists were “carrying out God’s command”.

He added: “Well Allah tells us in the Quran, ‘O you who have believed, fight those disbelievers nearest to you and let them find in you harshness. And know that Allah is with the righteous’. (Quran 9:123)

“So our beloved brothers were just carrying out God's command.

“As for those killed, then I show no sympathy to any disbeliever, whether male or female, young or old.

“The West drops bombs on Muslims lands without differentiating between the male and female, the young or old.

“So they deserve this. In fact, even if every toddler and old man were to be murdered it would be justified due to it being a recompense for what they are doing in Muslim lands. Mind you, even the bible teaches the law of, "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

“So the pathetic disbelievers deserve this.”

“Anyone who lives with the disbelievers has only himself to blame for being collateral damage in an attack.

Just a year ago, the crackpot – who now calls himself Abu Saeed al-Britani – said he was pining for his mum’s food.

Asked what he missed from the UK said: “Mainly food. And my mum's food of course Well her speciality was Asian dishes.”

The home-grown terrorist became a major recruiting focus in the West for ISIS 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.

Before fleeing the UK, 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.

He penned a detailed online article written to help other British Muslims travel to the Middle East to join the barbarous terror group.

Hussain told how he was being watched by M15 spooks for four years.

The 31-year-old revealed: “When I was in the Airport in the UK coming to Turkey, I was stopped and questioned for about three hours.

“I had been under watch by the authorities for about three or four years prior to that so it was not something shocking for me and it was something I had expected."
