I guess inclusivity is ISIS’s selling point.
 
Dhar never caught the imagination of the British public in the same way that Jihadi John did. Maybe they should have come up with a better nickname like Suicidal Sid.
 
Good riddance. Shame about the kids though.

Vice did an interesting short piece on this guy a few years ago.

Camel jockey is similar to the Ching Chong comment by another one of your compatriots. I am all for these light hearted and friendly comments but for some reason if I use them no doubt they would be considered racist.
 
There is a Kashmiri Dhar(Dar) and a Bengali Dhar(Dhor). They are not related.

No. Dhar is different and Dar is different. Two different Kashmiri castes. While i dont believe in such stratification, Dhar is considered an upper caste compared to Dar.
 
I'm pretty sure it's kashmiri


Dhar is a surname in bengalis, pronounced as "dhor".

Its Kashmiri. I can confirm it.

Not to say we cant find similar caste in other places.

Wow, didn't know the Kashmiris had infiltrated so deeply into Bengali society.

In fact pick any common Bengali first name like Sanjay, Anil, Debashis, Supriya, Sumita etc. and put them within quotes with Dhar and you will get multiple matches. For example, "Anil Dhar" produces the search result:

So many Kashmiri infiltrators!

There's no relation whatsoever, that said Kashmiris did rule over Bengal.

The British, rather than the Nawab, were the rulers.

The Nawab of Dhaka was the largest Muslim zamindar in British Bengal & Assam based in Dhaka city. The title of Nawab, similar to the British peerage, was conferred upon the head of the family by the British Raj as a recognition of their loyalty in the time of the Sepoy Mutiny.

I didnt say this particular guy was a Kashmiri. Just said that Dhar is a Kashmiri caste. Which is a fact that cant be disproved. A useless fact though so idk why we are even discussing it in so much depth.

Yes, there is a Kashmiri caste called Dhar (leaving aside for the moment the argument that Muslims are supposed to be caste-less).

You did write "Its Kashmiri. I can confirm it. Not to say we cant find similar caste in other places." A clarification, there is no similarity between the Kashmiri Dhar and the Bengali Dhar. The Bengali Dhars are Kayasthas. The caste/community has many different last names and Dhar is one of them, like Deb, Bose etc. The only similarity between the Kashmiri Dhar and the Bengalis Dhar is in the name.

I wonder what gave you the impression that Muslims are supposed to be caste-less? Muslims can have castes, they just cant use it for social stratification. However, in our part of the world, we inherit some aspects of the hindu culture and hence the stratification based on caste. Thankfully (well) it was always just limited to marriage in Kashmir and is becoming more irrelevant with passing time.

And thats the only similarity i was talking about when i said we can find similar castes in other places.
 
A man alleged to be the fourth member of the so-called "Beatles" Islamic State terror cell has been arrested in the UK.

Aine Davis, 38, from Hammersmith, west London, was arrested on Wednesday evening after arriving at Luton airport on a flight from Turkey.

He was detained in relation to offences under sections 15, 17 and 57 of the Terrorism Act, 2000.

Officers from the Metropolitan Police's Counterterrorism Command took him to a police station in south London.

The "Beatles" are thought to have been responsible for the kidnap and holding of more than 20 Westerners, and the execution of at least seven of them, including Britons David Haines and Alan Henning and American aid workers Kayla Mueller and Peter Kassig.


He was later given the nickname Jihadi John.

El Shafee Elsheikh and Alexanda Kotey, also from West London, were "Ringo" and "George" but the men always wore masks and none of the hostages at Elsheikh's trial in the US, earlier this year, were able to identify them.

A fourth member, who was said to be less involved, was apparently known as "Paul."

Emwazi was killed at the age of 27 in a US drone attack on 12 November 2015.

The same day, Davis was arrested by Turkish counter-terrorism police in a raid on a villa in Silivri, a western suburb of Istanbul.

He was subsequently convicted of membership of ISIS and sentenced to seven-and-a-half years in prison.

He was released from Ankara's Sincan prison, having served his sentence, and deported back to Britain.

Kotey was jailed in the US in April for his part in the torture and murder of hostages, while Elsheikh, will be sentenced in August for his role.

The former British national faces up to a life sentence in prison.

I am sure in any other part of the world if this happened (except for Afghanistan and the ME) the killing of the wife and children would be decried as a massacre and it should be. In this case though, as it has been for the last 21 years, its quite acceptable as collateral damage to the rest of the world and actually celebrated.

The world really needs to hang their heads in shame. You can send in two choppers with navy seals flying across the country in the middle of the night into a house miles from Pakistan GHQ, conduct a raid, kill OBL, leave with his body before anybody finding out, with ZERO casualties, and yet you decide to remotely drone a whole family for one guy in the Afghan wilderness?
How much sense does that make? Why cant they conduct more OBL like surgical strikes in Afghanistan using their SEALS? Are the lives of female muslim women and children so cheap?
