When this site started recommending deportation for Muslims in England who support terrorism, it was considered to be a novel suggestion. It now turns out this site was ahead of the curve.
Blair Announces New Measures Against Terrorism
LONDON — Foreigners who preach hatred, sponsor violence or belong to extremist groups could be deported from Britain under strict new measures that Prime Minister Tony Blair announced Friday, nearly a month after homicide bombers killed 52 people on London's transit system.
Membership in extremist Islamic groups such as Hizb-ut-Tahrir would become a crime under the new measures. The group, which advocates the creation of an Islamic state in Central Asia, already is outlawed in several countries.
Blair said the government also would compile a list of Web sites, bookshops and centers that incite hatred and violence. British nationals involved with such organizations could face strict penalties. Foreign nationals could be deported, he said.
"They come here and they play by our rules and our way of life," Blair said at his monthly news conference. "If they don't, they are going to have to go."
This will have good effects in Britain. It will remove dangerous persons from the community. It will also show those who support terror, but who are not arrested or deported, that supporting terror is now associated with grave costs to themselves. This will reduce support for terrorism within those communities and in that way reduce the number of new terrorists they produce.

#2Yes. As LGF recently observed, "The ACLU is the Enemy."
Britain is obviously blessed in that they do not have the American Civil Liberties Union; if they did, such a group would probably tie up any deportation measures in court with the argument that terrorists have the right to their own particular form of self-expression...
