Deputy leader of Muslim group to sue Government in row over extremism

Dr Daud Abdullah is demanding a 'substantial payout' or he will take court action

Here's another case of Islamic "lawfare" in the form of threats of another frivolous lawsuit filed for it's harassment value. The government is showing a bit of backbone for now, but must not allow itself to be bullied into a settlement before going to trial.

These frivolous suits serve several purposes for the Muslim Lawfare Jihadists.
1. They tie up the judicial system requiring government lawyers to defend against the claims and in some cases the government must also provide council to the claimant.
2. Even a loss is exploited by claiming "Islamophobia" and getting sympathetic press coverage.
3. As these cases are repeatedly filed, they become part of the "Great Lie" that their loss in court must be a result of Islamophobia.
4. They just wear people down with their constant harassment in the court system.

Notice too, that it's mostly the successful Muslims that bring these type of suits. If the threat of a lawsuit dosen't work, there's always the threat of direct violence.

The deputy leader of Britain's leading Muslim group is suing the Government for defamation in an extremism row which could cost the taxpayer hundreds of thousands of pounds.
Dr Daud Abdullah, deputy secretary-general of the Muslim Council of Britain, has sent a solicitor's letter to Communities Secretary Hazel Blears demanding a 'substantial' payout or he will drag the Government to court.
Any legal costs would be met from public funds - along with any payout to Dr Abdullah, who is also a member of the once Government-backed Mosques and Imams National Advisory Board.
