Britain to Institute New Deportation Measures - New York Times: "Britain to Institute New Deportation Measures
No need to suffer those who preach hate.
If they hate the west, get out.
Love it or Leave it.
This is different from "Freedom of Speach"
Liberty carries with it Responsiblity

LONDON (AP) -- Prime Minister Tony Blair on Friday announced new deportation measures against people who foster hatred and advocate violence following last month's transportation attacks that killed 52 people and four suspected suicide bombers.
Clerics who preach hate and Web sites or book shops that sponsor violence would be targeted. Foreign nationals could be deported under the new measures.
Blair said his government was prepared to amend human rights legislation if necessary if legal challenges arose from the new deportation measures.
Britain's ability to deport foreign nationals has been hampered by human rights legislation. As a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights, Britain is not allowed to deport people to a country where they may face torture or death.
''Let no one be in any doubt that the rules of the games are changing,'' Blair said, promising to crack down on extremists blamed for radicalizing pockets of Muslim youth.
