It's not spreading the word of Islam that's the problem Gayle. It's spreading the word of intollerance and hatred of all things non-muslim, which is actually in itself non-muslim as far as I am aware from muslims I know. Before clerics like Abu Hamza were permitted to enter this country they should have been checked out, but the government naively trusted that all they would be preaching would be Islam not murder and mayhem.
