Political analyst Amjad Taha has claimed on GB News there are more extremists in the UK than in the Middle East.
He joined Camilla Tominey on the People’s Channel to discuss the rising threat of extremism in Britain, which he feels has now reached an alarming level.
Taha claimed Islamists “control the whole narrative” which has led to the rise of antisemitism.
He told GB News: “I think you have more extremists in the UK than you have in the Middle East. Absolutely”, he said.

“The things Islamists say in various mosques we have seen online. The terminology they use and statements they make would not be allowed in Afghanistan.
“The Muslim Brotherhood, who are the Islamists, the main ones are the ones ruling and controlling various press when it comes to the Muslim society.

“They control the whole narrative and the Islamists use freedom of speech in a manner where they will be antisemite in the name of freedom of speech.
“I absolutely stand against that, antisemitism is not an opinion, it’s a crime and a crime against humanity. On the 7 October, when the genocide against Israelis happened, what we witnessed was Islamists in places like Birmingham showing voices for Hamas.
“Hamas is the armed forces of the Muslim Brotherhood. Muslim Brotherhood is banned in my country, the UAE (United Arab Emirates), but it’s not banned in the UK. They use the freedom of speech to censor your right to speak against them.
“For example, when you use the term ‘Islamophobia’, it’s just to stop you from criticising Islamists or the Muslim Brotherhood.”
It was revealed in January that eight organisations in the UK have been deemed terror groups by the UAE over alleged links to the Muslim Brotherhood.
The country’s approved ‘local terror list’ sees individuals and organisations handed travel and financial sanctions for their alleged support of terrorism.
The Muslim Brotherhood is not banned in the UK or proscribed as a terrorist organisation.
Taha suggested on GB News that the UAE’s heavy-handed measures towards the organisation suggests the country as a whole is stricter on terrorism than the UK.

Camilla Tominey put it to Taha that moderate Muslims want to live ‘harmoniously’ in Britain and do not want to be associated with terror groups.
She added: “They’re the ones calling out the extremists in their midst. Where do you stand on things? You would have heard about the Batley school teacher who used a depiction of Muhammad in a cartoon, he has gone into hiding.
“Another schoolchild dropped a Koran and he was rounded upon by members of the Muslim community in that area and he was forced to repent.”
Taha replied: “Diversity is accepted, but at the same time we should not hurt anyone’s religion.
“At the same time, what you have is the Muslim Islamist Brotherhood. For example, the grooming and raping of children because of certain members of the Muslim society.
“Why didn’t we protest as much as we did in Gaza and ask for justice? That’s because the Muslim Brotherhood, who organised this protest, controls the community.
“When you have illegal immigrants coming all the way to Britain, the Muslim Brotherhood brings them lawyers, change their cases where it fits the Home Office criteria to guarantee citizenship or refugee status.
“Once these people become citizens, they become loyal to the person that got them citizenship.
“They then become loyal to the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood. It’s all started by the radicalisation at the first stage.”
