The trial of one-eyed hook-handed radical Islamic freak Abu Hamza al-Mazri started today in London: UK cleric Abu Hamza’s trial opens. (Hat tip: SoCalJustice.)
Abu Hamza, wearing a blue smock and with neatly trimmed gray hair and beard, was surrounded by four guards as he stood in the dock at the Central Criminal Court.
He pleaded innocent to all charges at a hearing in January.
“From my point of view and Abu Hamza’s point of view, we don’t see Muslims as terrorists, we see the Western governments as the real terrorists,” the cleric’s spokesman, Abu Abdullah, said in a telephone interview.
“Blair and Bush have killed more people in Iraq and Afghanistan than Osama bin Laden is accused of killing. Who are the real terrorists?”
