Glen “don’t call me Omar” Jenvey, the anti-Muslim “Obsession” pundit and liar who convinced a UK newspaper to print fake Islamist threats against Jews, has announced his conversion to Islam was fake, a mediocre gimmick with which he has gleaned a bunch of new experiences worthy of writing a book about.

From Richard Bartholomew:

In a video which he posted to Liveleak and then pulled (but which can still be seen in Google cache), he explains that the whole business was an exercise in infiltration, as a result of which he now knows more about Muslim extremists in Wiltshire and Hampshire, the area of the UK in which he lives (although he also met lots of moderates). He also claims he had to undertake this subterfuge because the security services are “clueless” and “institutionally racist”. He kisses a crucifix, mentions the fact that he is gay, and tells us that during his undercover period he would read the Koran while drinking beer and speak to Omar Bakri on the phone while eating a bacon sandwich and drinking wine. He also says he has been working for “an MP and a diplomat” – presumably a reference to Patrick Mercer MP, who has lately been keen to distance himself from his past association with Jenvey. We’re promised more information when he has written his book.

Completely worthless. You could see this coming back in June.
