Too many laid back potheads in Jamaica for them to ever be a real threat though.
On the contrary, this guy is a Major League terrorist *******...
"Muslim cleric Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal, who has been deported from the UK to Jamaica, was jailed in 2003 for soliciting the murder of Jews and Hindus.
Al-Faisal spent years travelling the UK preaching racial hatred urging his audience to kill Jews, Hindus and Westerners.
The imam called on impressionable teenage boys to learn how to use rifles, fly planes and use missiles to kill "all unbelievers".
In return for becoming martyrs, he promised them the reward of a place in paradise.
One of the 7 July London suicide bombers, Germaine Lindsay, was heavily influenced by him, according to the Home Secretary John Reid.
Shoe bomber Richard Reid, who like al-Faisal is of Jamaica descent, is said to have visited mosques where he preached.
Raised Christian
Al-Faisal, 43, left the UK from Gatwick at midday on 25 May 2007, accompanied by two police escorts and an immigration officer, having lost his appeal against deportation.
The home secretary said he was pleased Al-Faisal been removed and excluded from the UK.
Al-Faisal, who is from St James in Jamaica, left the island for the UK 26 years ago.
Born Trevor William Forrest, he earned the nicknamed "Dictionary" because of his vocabulary.
His parents were Salvation Army officers and he was raised as a Christian, but when he was aged 16 he went to Saudi Arabia - where he is believed to have spent eight years - and became a Muslim.
He took a degree in Islamic Studies in the Saudi capital of Riyadh before coming to the UK.
Islamic tapes
The full extent of his preaching of racial hatred emerged during his four-week trial at the Old Bailey.
Taped recordings of his lectures were sold at specialist Islamic bookshops.
And it was these tapes that formed the basis of the prosecution's case against al-Faisal, who lived in Stratford, east London.
Al-Faisal was found guilty of three charges of soliciting the murder of Jews, Americans and Hindus.
And he was found guilty by a jury of six men and six women of two charges of using threatening words to stir up racial hatred.
In his tape Jihad, the father-of-four told Muslim women to raise their children "with the jihad mentality" by giving them toy guns.
In the tape recorded after 11 September, he said: "The way forward is the bullet. Our motto is 'might is right'".
In another tape - Rules of Jihad - thought to have been recorded before 11 September, he said Jihad had been declared against India.
