| UK to shift anti-terror strategy |

LONDON, Feb 16 (KUNA) -- The British Government is preparing a major shift
in its counter-terrorism strategy to combat radicalisation, the BBC's current
affairs programme "Panorama" revealed Monday.
The programme, entitled "Muslim First, British Second," will be broadcast
on BBC TV tonight.
In a preview of the programe, conservative Muslims who teach that Islam is
incompatible with Western democracy will be challenged as part of a new
approach.
A senior British Government source told Panorama that Muslim leaders who
urge separation will be isolated and publicly rejected.
He also said this would occur even if their comments fell within the law.
This will include those who argue that Muslims should not vote and that
homosexuals should be condemned on religious grounds.
Panorama's source said that Britain "needs to identify and back shared
values" and that this new thinking will be central to a new counter-terrorism
policy called "Contest 2" due to be launched this Spring.
It has also been told by a separate counter-terrorism source that more
emphasis will be placed on gathering intelligence about extremism from inside
the Muslim community.
The UK Home Office is currently spending 80 million pounds on community
projects designed to stop young Muslims from being radicalised and the source
said that some of these projects are being targeted by intelligence analysts.
However, this was denied by the police.
Sir Norman Bettison from the Association of Chief Police Officers, who,
when asked if community projects are being used as "Trojan horses" to gather
information, told the programme there was "no dedicated intelligence
gathering" as part of the "Prevent" community work.
The Government's counter-terrorism strategy is based on what officials call
the "Four Ps", prevent, pursue, protect and prepare. (end)
