It's a shame that there are radical Islamic clerics who brainwash these people.

Jihadists release video of British suicide bomber in Syria

Jihadists have released a video of a British fighter who carried out a suicide attack in a recent assault on an Aleppo prison conducted by the Al Nusrah Front and the Army of the Caliphate. Abdul Waheed Majeed, the British suicide bomber, is seen just before he rams an up-armored dump truck into the prison.

Majeed, who is thought to be the first Brit to carry out a suicide attack inside Syria, is seen in a videotape titled "The last operation Emir Saifullah al Shishani." Saifullah, a Chechen, was a leader of the "Al-Khilafa army," or Army of the Caliphate, which fights under the Al Nusrah Front for the People of the Levant, al Qaeda's branch in Syria. Before he was killed during the fighting in Aleppo, Saifullah swore allegiance to the emir of the Al Nusrah Front after defecting from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham.

A decade before traveling to Syria to wage jihad for the Al Nusrah Front, Majeed was a student of Omar Bakri Muhammad, the radical jihadist cleric who once wrote statements for Osama bin Laden and who formed al-Muhajiroun, which has been banned in England for terrorist activities. Majeed was also a member of al-Muhajiroun from 1996-2004.
