Aimen Dean, a former al-Qaeda terrorist who later became a covert agent for MI6, is sounding a stark alarm about Britain’s internal security. In a new interview with UK media, Dean claims there are hundreds of sleeper terrorists currently operating inside the United Kingdom.
According to Dean, al-Qaeda retains the capability to carry out major coordinated attacks in Britain “within days,” warning of scenarios comparable to past large-scale terror attacks in London or even attacks modeled on 9/11-style operations. He argues that the infrastructure, ideology, and networks already exist inside Europe, largely underestimated by policymakers.
Dean also sharply criticizes European threat assessments, saying the continent is dangerously overfocused on Russia while ignoring what he describes as the primary strategic threat: Iran and the continued expansion of Islamist ideology across Europe. He warns that this miscalculation leaves European societies exposed and unprepared.
