All in the family. Brothers — in arms.
It’s a good thing that the British authorities, in their infinite wisdom, saw fit to ban Robert Spencer and me from speaking about jihad in the UK. Brilliant.

A British jihadist fighting for ISIS in Syria has sent boastful tweets to friends of homemade bombs and said Britain should be ‘afraid’ about him returning.
Nasser Muthana, 20, posted a terrifying gallery of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and also other weapons he hoped he could use to decapitate enemies.
Below one he added the stark warning: ‘So the UK is afraid I come back with the skills I’ve gained.’

It came as his younger brother Aseel, 17, vowed to fight to the death for Isis and claimed ‘jihad is obligatory’ for Muslims.
He followed his brother, who appeared in a shocking recruitment video aimed at luring other young British Muslims to Syria and Iraq with another friend Reyaad Khan, 20, also from Cardiff.
Nasser Muthana has now tweeted mocking the publicity this generated and also gave a graphic account of a battle and referred to beheadings.
He posted a chilling photograph on Tuesday showing a home-made weapon believed to be taken from an enemy Shia Muslim – and his plan to behead the captive fighter.
The Twitter post said: ‘Look what we found on this shi’i, glad tidings we’ll make sure his head is detachable.’
Nasser describes himself as a ‘soldier of the Islamic State of Iraq and Sham’ on his Twitter profile.
And his social media profile explains his beliefs as based on ‘a book that guides and a sword that supports it’.

Aseel Muthana, 17, from Cardiff, has now also boasted online about being involved in battles where enemies were murdered and their heads taken as trophies.
The schoolboy says in a series of messages online he is willing to be a ‘martyr’ for the jihadist cause in Syria and does not plan to return home.
He told the BBC: ‘Jihad is obligatory.’

Asked if he had any regrets about leaving the UK and about how far he was prepared to go for his cause, he replied: ‘Nope, I can say I am willing to die but Allah knows the truth behind the words.’
He described making new friends with other British jihadists who had travelled to Syria to join Isis fighters.
Muthana was also asked how he could defend the brutality of the Isis killings in Syria, and said he followed Sharia law and those who do not would be punished.
His messages also included graphic accounts of a battle and referred to beheadings. In one comment he said: ‘Two tanks were taken… and we brought back heads with us.’

Another message posted on that account yesterday showed a weapon said to have been taken from an enemy of Isis. The message said: ‘Look what we found… glad tidings we’ll make sure his head is detachable.’
CARDIFF TEENAGER ARRESTED ON SUSPICION OF TERRORISM
A teenager has been arrested on suspicion of terrorism offences today.
The 18-year-old is from the Grangetown area of Cardiff – close to inner city areas of the Welsh capital where a trio of young jihadists now fighting for ISIS lived before they fled to Syria.
He was seized under Section 5 of the Terrorism Act 2006 for assisting in the preparation of an act of terrorism.
The teenager is being questioned by officers from North West Counter Terrorism Unit and Wales Extremism and Counter Terrorism Unit.
Police sources say the arrest is not directly connected to the three Cardiff men currently in Syria.
All three appear to have internet access in Syria and are using social media to talk about brutal executions and life on the front line.
The BBC has said it has done all it can to verify that it is the men, but cannot be 100 per certain.
The men refuse to answer certain questions, worried about being identified but in a series of comments both have referred to appearing in the Isis video.
In February Aseel fled Britain to fight in Syria after telling his parents he was staying at his friend’s house ahead of a maths exam at his school.
But police then arrived at his home the following night after it emerged he had gained a second passport by lying about his age and was in Cyprus and about to sail to Syria.
His brother Nasser was a star medical student who secretly travelled to Syria from his family home in Cardiff despite being offered the opportunity to study medicine by four universities.
His family have not seen him since November 2013.
