Islam will dominate the world (should this have said Britain?)
Osama is on his way (I assume Britain)
Kill Gordon Brown (he lives in Britain)
the way i see it is that if he said "Islam will dominate Christians" then it is religious crime

"Islam will dominate the world" is a political crime

either way he should have had the book thrown at him and i'm sure (not being a legal expert)that a little more imagination on the part of the CPS could have resulted in stronger charges
