Glen Jenvey (born 9 April 1965) is a British journalist who claims to have infiltrated, undermined and exposed radical Islamic groups. He also states that he has infiltrated the Tamil Tigers, working for them in London.〔http://www.defence.lk/new.asp?fname=20061022_01〕 Jenvey says he used the internet to infiltrate terrorist organizations, and to have developed a relationship with Abu Hamza al-Masri through these means (via Jenvey's Islamic News website, which posed as a genuine extremist site). Recorded film footage with James Ujaama was, he claims, obtained through similar means. Jenvey said that his tapes, in which Hamza called for Jihad, were responsible for Hamza's arrest and trial. In the event, Hamza was convicted only of charges related to possession of the ''Encyclopedia of Afghan Jihad''. In 2009 it was reported that Jenvey had converted to Islam, and taken down his YouTube page. On 25 October 2009, a video (now taken down) was posted on the video hosting service, LiveLeak.com, which shows Jenvey admitting that his conversion to Islam was fake and was part of a year-long undercover research effort to gather evidence for a forthcoming book he plannned to release. Jenvey appeared in the film ''Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Full cast and crew for Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West (2005) )〕 He was interviewed by the BBC's ''Newsnight'' programme on 17 April 2008,〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHtRntXT4a4〕 in his Whiteparish, Wiltshire home about his internet monitoring activities. ==Criticism and controversy== On 7 January 2009, the UK tabloid newspaper ''The Sun'' ran a story saying that participants in a discussion on Ummah.com, a British Muslim internet forum, had made a "hate hit list" of British Jews to be targeted by extremists over the 2008–2009 Israel–Gaza conflict. The UK magazine ''Private Eye'', later said that Jenvey, posting to the forum under the pseudonym "Abuislam", had in fact created the only evidence that indicated anything other than a peaceful letter-writing campaign. The story has since been removed from ''The Sun''s website following complaints to the UK's Press Complaints Commission. On 31 December 2009, Jenvey was arrested on suspicion of inciting racial hatred against Jews. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glen Jenvey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
