ISLAMIC extremists plan to cause outrage by marching through a town that has become a symbol of our lost war heroes.
Ranting Anjem Choudary said they will even carry COFFINS through Wootton Bassett.

The bodies of most of the British troops killed in Afghanistan have been driven through the town near Swindon, Wilts, in repatriation ceremonies after being flown home.


March plan ... Choudary
But hate preacher Choudary's Islam4UK will march to represent the "well over 100,000 innocent Muslim men, women and children" who have died in the fighting.

Local councillor and ex mayor Chris Wannell begged Choudary to call off the march. He said: "If he has any decency I would ask him to stay away."

Ex-lawyer Choudary, 42, of Ilford, East London, told The Sun that the march, expected to take place in the next few weeks, would not coincide with the return of a hero's body.

Andrew Rosindell, Tory MP for Romford, East London, said: "This is a despicable proposal."

Meanwhile a bomb disposal expert from 33 Engineer Regiment, Royal Engineers, was killed on New Year's Eve clearing Taliban mines in Sangin, Helmand Province, it emerged yesterday.

He was the 108th British victim in 2009 and the 245th since the war started in 2001.

MUSLIMS have said they will blame hate preacher Anjem Choudary if his proposed protest march provokes racial tension in the UK.
The Wiltshire Islamic Cultural Centre have asked cops to ban a planned march through Wootton Bassett, Wilts, organised by Choudary's website Islam4UK.

A statement on the group's website said: "We will hold Anjem Choudary and al-Muhajiroun responsible for any backlash against any Muslim in Wiltshire or elsewhere as a result of their proposed irresponsible and irrational actions and any insecurity brought upon the majority peaceful Muslim population.

"We strongly request Wiltshire Police to ban the proposed march in the interests of public order, public safety and community cohesion."

Fight for life ... lad gets oxygen as he battles deadly tetanus
Yesterday vile Choudary, 42, outrageously compared British soldiers to Nazi stormtroopers - as it was revealed Army medics had saved the life of a six-year-old Afghan boy.

The extremist accused UK forces in Afghanistan of committing "war crimes and many atrocities, including concentration camps like in Nazi Germany".

Choudary made the slur in an interview on the SunTalk radio station at the same time as the Afghan lad was leaving a British Army field hospital.

Little Rahmadullah was dying when his family took him to a small US base near their home in Helmand.

Medics there were baffled by his symptoms and had to consult textbooks before diagnosing tetanus.

Rahmadullah was then rushed to a British-run hospital at Camp Bastion, where he was treated by a team led by Lt Col Andy Johnston, of the Royal Army Medical Corps.

Lt Col Johnston said: "He was having severe muscle spasms which were affecting his breathing.

"He developed pneumonia and had to be put on a ventilator for two weeks. Just seeing the expression on his face when his father came to pick him up made it all worthwhile."

Help him ... dad Rahmadullah to US base
Dad Nicknazer said: "Local doctors could not do anything and my son would have died if I had not brought him here. The doctors and nurses have been fantastic. I am so pleased."

Jobless Choudary - who lives on benefits in Leytonstone, East London - could be prosecuted over sick letters he plans to send to families of dead British troops, experts believe.

Lawyers say he could be charged under race hate laws for telling them to "embrace Islam to save yourselves from the hellfire".

Ex-police chief John O'Connor said the British-born fanatic could even be charged with TREASON - which carries a life sentence - for trying to disrupt the nation's war effort.

More than 200,000 people have joined online protests against Choudary's plan to march in Wootton Bassett - the town famed for honouring dead British troops.

Tory chief David Cameron said: "Anjem Choudary needs to be looked at seriously - the legality of what he's saying."

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Grayling called for Choudary to be prosecuted and Islam4UK banned for trying to whip up hatred.

Hazel Hunt, mum of the 200th British soldier to die in Afghanistan, said: "The march should be stopped because it will cause so much distress to so many people. It's an insult to Wootton Bassett and all our dead soldiers."
