LONDON , England -LRB- CNN -RRB- -- White supremacists , Islamic clerics , a controversial Kansas pastor and a U.S. talk show host are on a list of 22 people banned from Britain for `` stirring up hatred , '' the British government said Tuesday . Jacqui Smith said she did not hesitate to name and shame those who foster extremist views . Britain 's Home Office said it decided to exclude the 22 in the last several months . The decision follows measures introduced by Home Secretary Jacqui Smith last year against people `` who have engaged in spreading hate , '' the Home Office said . The Home Office named only 16 of those on the list ; it said it was not in the public interest to disclose the names of the other six . A spokeswoman declined to elaborate on why the Home Office would not publicly identify six of the 22 . One of the most recognized names on the list may be U.S. radio talk show host Michael Savage , who is listed under his real name , Michael Alan Wiener . The conservative 's daily show can be heard nationwide in the United States . Savage is on the list for `` seeking to provoke others to serious criminal acts and fostering hatred which might lead to inter-community violence . '' Savage lashed out at Smith on his Web site , calling her a `` witch '' and asking how she knew of his show when it is n't syndicated in England . He also questioned why six names on the list were n't released and why North Korean leader Kim Jong Il and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez did n't make the list . In an audio clip on his Web site , Savage said he had seven attorneys working on a defamation lawsuit against Smith and encouraged his listeners to call off any travel plans to England and boycott all British products . `` She has painted a target on my back , linking me with people who are in prison for killing people , '' he said . `` How could they put Michael Savage in the same league as mass murderers when I have never avowed violence ? '' Outspoken Kansas Rev. Fred Phelps and his daughter , Shirley Phelps-Roper , are also listed for `` engaging in unacceptable behavior and fostering hatred . '' Phelps and his followers at Westboro Baptist Church oppose homosexuality . They picket the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq , saying their deaths are God 's way of punishing the United States for supporting homosexuals . They have expressed similar views about the victims of the September 11 , 2001 , attacks and Hurricane Katrina . The church 's slogan is `` God Hates Fags . '' Phelps did not issue a response on his Web site . However , he linked to a British news story on the ban and wrote his own headline , calling Smith a `` neo-Nazi dyke '' and `` filthy God-hater . '' Former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard Don Black , who has said he despises U.S. President Barack Obama , is also on the list . Black established the white supremacist Web site Stormfront , which the Home Office called one of the oldest and largest hate group sites . Eric Gliebe , chairman of the National Alliance , one of the largest neo-Nazi groups in the United States , is on the list for `` justifying terrorist violence , provoking others to commit serious crime and fostering racial hatred . '' The Home Office cited Gliebe 's `` Web-radio broadcasts in which he vilifies certain ethnic groups and encourages the download and distribution of provocative racist leaflets and posters . '' Several Islamic clerics are also on the list , including Abdullah Qadri Al Ahdal , Amir Siddique , Yunis Al Astal and Safwat Hijazi . Prolific speaker and writer Wadgy Abd El Hamied Mohamed Ghoneim is also listed . The list includes Mike Guzofsky , the leader of a militant Jewish group . He has ties to Kahane Chai , a group that the U.S. State Department lists as a foreign terrorist organization . Russian skinheads Artur Ryno and Pavel Skachevsky are also on the list . The Home Office says they are `` leaders of a violent gang that beat migrants and posted films of their attacks on the Internet . '' Samir al Quntar , a Lebanese man who spent three decades in prison for killing four Israeli soldiers and a 4-year-old girl in 1979 , is also on the list . In an exchange with the militant group Hezbollah , Israel freed al Quntar last year for the bodies of two Israeli soldiers . Al Quntar is `` engaging in unacceptable behavior by seeking to foment , justify or glorify terrorist violence '' in order to provoke terrorist acts , the Home Office said . Nasr Javed and Abdul Ali Musa round out the 16 names made public . `` Coming to the UK is a privilege , and I refuse to extend that privilege to individuals who abuse our standards and values to undermine our way of life , '' Smith said . `` Therefore , I do not hesitate to name and shame those who foster extremist views , as I want them to know that they are not welcome here . `` The government opposes extremism in all its forms and I am determined to stop those who want to spread extremism , hatred and violent messages in our communities from coming to our country , '' she said . `` This is the driving force behind tighter rules on exclusions for unacceptable behavior .
