New arrival for the blogosphere

A warm welcome to the new website launched by Tom Gross, the indefatigable middle East commentator, which reveals the creation of yet another Islamist group in London:

Anjam Choudry a lawyer and the former leader of al Muhahjiroun, an extremist organization which disbanded itself in October 2004, told the Saudi-owned paper Asharq al Awsat yesterday that he had invited the group’s 700 ex-members to unite under the banner of 'Ahl al Sunnah and al Jamaa' (the community following the teachings of the Prophet.) Choudry also expected several students of Omar Bakri Mohammad, the spiritual guide of the banned al Ghurabaa group who currently lives in Beirut, to attend the launch. The new group aims to unite British Muslims under one roof, away from more secular organizations.
