    I have been listening the news reports on Radio 4 at different times of the day. Every report included the item from Faith Matters reporting the number of anti-Islamic incidents has risen since Lee Rigby’s death. I am not surprised but ask myself why the BBC is so keen to report it – am I supposed to think ‘well it serves the muslim community right’, or am I supposed to think, ‘I do feel sorry for the muslim community’? Which way do I feel and why? How has the BBC contributed towards my attitude? I am not sure I have definite answers to my own questions but I do believe that the BBC want to affect my thoughts.

    On five live’s Saturday Breakfast show this morning they were anguishing over how the murder of Drummer Rigby (RIP) should be explained to children.

    Some American psychobabble bint suggested that they should be told that there is a war in a country a long way away and the suspects (still suspects!!!) did not agree with it.

    The implication therefore was that Drummer Rigby had brought his murder upon himself by being in HM Armed Forces (offensive foreign policy and all that).

    The show’s host, Tony Livesey (when did he become such a bleeding heart?) neither challenged or even questioned this.

    Neither was a counter opinion sought, that perhaps the murder was part of the ever increasing acts of barbarity perpetrated by Muslims the world over and that this should be tackled.

    Every news bulletin led – led by the way – with the (non) story that anti-muslim incidents had increased to 160 (160!!!!! – wow) in the past week.

    The whole liberal leftie, tree hugging, marxist/socialist organsisation is a fucking disgrace.

      Hmmm? I’d go with; ‘some people are just plain bad, they may not be born bad but they become bad because they mix with bad people and believe their lies. Bad people do bad things. Now eat your cornflakes and if I ever hear you say Chelsea FC are cool again I’ll disown you.’

    Just a thought here, but one of the usual conspiracy website has raised an interesting question.

    Why if they’ve just stabbed someone to death and decapitated them aren’t either of them covered in blood?

    The one who talks to the camera is wearing red rubber gloves but doesn’t have any obvious signs of blood.

    Anyone here care to comment?

    Perilous days ahead. The liberal elite is panicking. Not afraid of the Islamists as much as the natives. The EDL is their current obssession but not because it is dangerous but because the elite cannot know how many silently agree with it.
    Next stage will be the criminalisation of all opposition. Much of the legislation is already in place. Secret courts . Knocks at midnight. You think it is fantasy. I hope so. Tyrants by inevitability as someone once said.
    They have their police. Years of indoctrination of the police forces has seen to that. Can they trust the army? That must worry them. They have their street thugs – the so called anti facists.
    They have their propaganda organs. We all know the names of those. My advice is to keep a lowish profile. They have the power and are afraid. Nothing is a more dangerous combination than power and fear.
    The Tory party ? Forget it. The rest? No chance.
    Perhaps this is the way hundreds of years of democracy and civilised behaviour ends.
    This is the way reality works. Not at all nice for most of us but there you are.
    After the Norman invasion the elites lived in fear of us for centuries. Probably they always have.
    They must know,for they are intelligent men and women, that the beheading of our soldier and seeing the grief of his family is a step too far for most of us. It will take us time to decide what to do but ,in essence, the decision has been made for good or ill.

    Apparently a French soldier has been stabbed in the neck by a member of the RoP.

    I say this as somebody with an ethnically Chinese girlfriend and multiple friends of various ethnicities, but I’ve had ‘enough’.
    One Nation
    One Culture
    One People

    We need to start deporting the nutjobs ASAP. The entire families of the Woolwich terrorists should be deported – as should the families of the 7/7 bombers. These people need to have something else to lose, apart from their lives. If they knew grandma was going to be sent back to insert_name_of_3rd_world_shithole_here they might think twice about their actions. We are never going to solve this problem with the current shower of shit in power – rather ironically, I completely agreed with the terrorist that told us to throw out our leaders.

    I’ve joined UKIP. I know they don’t advocate deportation, but at least they’d get a grip on immigration and perhaps send the worst of our ‘guests’ on their way.

    “FRENCH SOLDIER STABBED IN NECK IN PARIS BY MUSLIM”
    [Opening excerpt]:-
    “The Muslim attacker appears to be devout – he was a bearded and wearing an Islamic-style garment under his jacket. Who is the enemedia going to blame for this?

    “Again for those new to media scrubbing, sanitizing, deception and obfuscation, “youth gang,” “Asian,” “immigrant,” “youth,” “immigrant youth,” “North African,” and “Moroccan” all mean the same thing. The prohibited M word — blasphemous under the sharia (Islamic law). ”

    So I’ve come home from work and noted that the bBC is leading with the rise in anti-Muslim attacks after the decapitation of a British soldier on the streets of London by two Islamic followers of peace. Of course one has to be careful nowadays in which to express your concerns about how you could be murdered in broad daylight by followers of a faith whom apparently can be only seen as victims. Which is why in the Uk if you put up barded wire in which to protect your 90 year old mother from burglary the Police will knock on your door and warn you off, if you fly the Union flag the local council will have the police knock on your door and call you a racist and if you are a 80 year old lady who makes cheese the polcie will knock on your door in which to tell you to stop making such anti-social food items. However if you are a Muslim you can burn poppies on remembrance day, you can protest openly against British troops parading on a British street, you can also rape little white girls free in the knowledge that the Police will charge the girls of lying. You can get off a speeding fine due to the fact that you have two wives, you can also cut off the bits of little girls, murder school boys in Scotland and England. But then I am talking about a police force which will knock on your door if you fly the national flag, as opposed to any from an Islamic country, the same Police force which has handed over so many victims of abuse back to their abusers, failed to answer a 999 call within 48 hours, and is currently arresting people for tweeting how they hate Muslims, yet failed time and time again to protect the British public.

    That people is the prop Islamic British Police

    Was just watching Have I Got News For You, after getting back from the pub with my Dad. We both came to the conclusion that how BBC humour has become totally left-wing, trendy egotistical humour where the Right is routinely derided whereas Muslims and Lefties are no-go areas. It’s pathetic metro-trendy brainwashing. Bring back Porridge and Only Fools and Horses, which was true British humour before the politically correct censorship brigade shut the curtains on free speech.

    Of course the BBC-NUJ typical political response is to deny that there is a mass immigration problem in Sweden, and the solution is MORE mass immigration, and to borrow billions more Euros to spend on mass immigration!

    And, BBC-NUJ campaigns for such a ‘policy’ in UK.

    BBC-NUJ wants Europe (and UK) colonised by ‘Third World’ mass immigration. And we see the early results.

    Regarding any notion of conspiracy the odds are on there being agent provocateurs at work here at the very least. The vast majority of these insanely stupid acts are perpetrated by muslim converts who are effectively useful idiots. Clearly successive governments have given free reign to extreme islamification of vulnerable inner city youths because any act of terror is simply used to ratchet up the surveillance grid the elite have been chumping at the bit to install. The military industrial complex always loves these senseless acts of violence and they profit from them immensely.

    Wow, watching the newspaper review on news 24 and all I saw was:
    Islam is a religion of peace
    That
    Muslims are the real victims in the UK

    That actually the reason the Muslim beheaded Lee Rigby was because he was:
    Harassed by MI5 and he was tortured by the Kenyans.

    Oh and anybody who expresses disgust at how maybe just maybe Not only does Islam not hold itself to account in any field, but actually it is behind the rise in every crime statistic in the Uk. But you know what to the bBC and PC plob white non muslims are the guilty party.
    Hold a protest….racist white people
    Tweet something about Islam..Get picked up by the Police.

    Yet when Muslims do likewise (Dress up like suicide bombers, attack the Israel,American embassy, protest against British troops, attack British soldiers in hospitals, etc, )
    the British police do nothing and the bBC talk about the freedom of speech.,

    Well bBC and British police the people have woken up from the oppressive pro islamic stance you both enforce onto us non muslims. There is a huge groundswell movement in the Uk and hopefully you will both be replaced by something that is fit for purpose. No dobut some leftwing ethical latte drinker will inform the fat useless British police force of my hateful post and I will have the British version of the Shaira police knocking on my door for being an Apostate.

    Now I’ve heard it all! Apparantly arch loonie leftie David Tennant is accused of being far too right wing and ‘Thunderingly racist’ in a new book. quotes such as:

    ‘the BBC programme is based in attitudes ‘that continue to subjugate people of colour’.

    ‘thinly disguised nostalgia for the British Empire.’

    ‘saw the BBC using Who to promote a racial and class nostalgia that had already outlived its validity.’

    ‘second-class’ treatment of black characters such as Martha Jones ‘

    ‘The biggest elephant in the room is the problem privately nursed by many fans of loving a TV show when it is thunderingly racist.’

    Or in other words when you have public funding and nothing to really write about just pick anything to vent your PC spleen over – it doesn’t matter how ridiculous, obscene, or plain wrong you are no one will dare argue with you!

    Hugh Sykes( B.H this morning) tells me that all I will hear is the sound of hoopoe birds splashing gaily(well…you know!) in the gently flowing rivers by effervescent fountains.
    Splendid!
    Yet he goes to a schools headteacher and rings the doorbell…it plays “London Bridge is falling down”…oh, how sweet…those soldiers didn`t die in vain then!
    But Hugh tells us all its “girls and boys come out to play”…and him a headteacher too! How apt he says!
    Possibly-thanks to the BBC and Woolwich-the first title might upset us all, or give offence to these proud, normal people.
    Next-Hugh would love to look into the school, but unfortunately this could upset the women and girls-and(dare we say?) the local Taliban(er, no we dare not!)?
    Still-if you want to send your daughter there on a Margaret Hassan Scholarship…or just send them the fookin` money(@Geldof 1985)…then that would be halal with them.
    Splendid.
    Oh, and maybe you could visit, bring books and teddy bears over in 2015…the soldiers are leaving next year , so things can only get better surely!
    Thank you Hugh!…next stop Narnia with a bag of finest opium, no doubt!
    And we pay for this….is £145.50 more or less than the hand-scrawled letter from Cameron to the Rigby family, I wonder?
    Yes-we will all pay for this!

    The World Service breakfast time programme had 2 guests who were asked to solve the jihadist problem. The first a former All Black & NZ Diplomat urged more love (on our part). The second an Economist journalist/regional editor felt we had to do more to combat the Islamist propaganda. He recommended MEMRI – will he be invited back on the programme?

    Isn’t incredible how the BBC in their nauseating debates in such left-wing chat rooms as ‘Big’ Questions all fall over themselves saying how Muslim extremists need help, how Muslims are oppressed both at home and abroad but when the BNP voice their anger at Muslim extremists the BBC and the same Notting Hill brigade won;t even have them on their programs. If a Muslim is a fascist terrorist we have to understand their psychology but if a white Englishman has had enough of Islamic extremism he’s beyond help and a racist thug who should be ostracized.

    What were the chances that on this Sunday’s edition of “The Big Questions” one debate would be entitled: “Muslims: monsters in our midst?”

      TBQ – the big questions – are muslims doing enough to prevent extremism? … so panto campbell asks a complete line up of … muslim spokesmen? (why?)
      all playing hardman/softman, with each other, all the usual suspects are there … contrived utter nonsense … no objective viewpoint at all,
      note – this is not the first time the BBC has employed such shennigans on this show.
      it appears from this bunch that …
      laughable obfuscation lessons, and every excuse available, that have nothing to do with the root problem … are the answer?
      off switch … 15mins i won t get back.

    Well it`s been four days now since the horrific murder- as Islamic a ritual killing as we are ever likely to see outside Mecca(where we`re not allowed of course)-and the BBC seem very quick in dehumanising the slaughter of this soldier.
    In other outlets, facets abound of Lee Rigbys life-kebabs, a son and a marriage that needed work this weekend….very much things we can all relate to.
    Now normally the BBC love the emoting-witness Lady Di, the “how does it feel to you?” line of questionning-with tears a bonus for the cameraman.
    But for poor Lee Rigby and his grieving family?…it`s as if the BBC dragged the poor lads body back into the car, and drove off. You know-for health and safety reasons or to secure a fragrant passage for Friday prayers nearby.
    Absolutely NO real narrative about the ordinariness of this near-random murder of a white bloke in broad daylight…in case we fellow white blokes get angry maybe.
    But plenty about little old ladies shouting at mosques in Kent…which (in its way of course) is -in a real sense-just as bad in the eye of the liberal elite with the editing facilities. Is it not?…Justin? Rowan? Jeremy?

    But this was not really “near-random” was it?…the chances of him being a soldier were pretty high I`m guessing-and if this is not treason deserving of the death penalty as quick as possible-then…well, I`m a depersonalising, systems-blaming, red herring manufacturer that likes to ensure that any Koranic references are left on the cutting room floor…and begging for Leveson, Shami, Trevor to come to my aid.
    Clegg-al Camerons theology doesn`t seem to be cutting it with Anjem you see…
    I want to know more about Lee Rigby and his family-as much a parable of 21st Century evil as James Bulger was of the 1990s.
    But the BBC don`t want me to get all emotional, funnily enough-bit of dispensable white trash like me no doubt!
    Anybody heard from Geoffrey Robertson, Gareth Peirce or Michael(that name again) Mansfield, Clive Stafford-Smith then about this murder?…or do they reserve their lofty opinions for highly-paid tributes to Osama Bin Laden being “unlawfully killed” by “people resembling a Western profile”?

    And finally-let`s pity Dawkins and Grayling-poor sods were brought up in Christian homes-so, like Michael X, Michael 4X etc….that`ll be the root cause of their rage and willingness to see the death of Christianity in one way( rather than the other as shown us all in Woolwich last Wednesday).

    Depressing pile of crap in the paper review of the Sunday papers on BH this morning.
    After the death of a comrade, I would have expected some non-PC sense from the famous Andy McNab, who I`d heard much about.
    Sadly, he`s as much a tin soldier for the BBC as is Eric Joyce(who at least still seems capable of defending himself).
    Mc Nab let himself be patronised in the introduction as given him by Matt O Connell(an oily creep, I think)…why the rough brute likes his opera!…huzzah!
    The other two worried about extremists-but Mandelas bagman on the panel saw no parallels, and the BBC weren`t going to provide any. No we`re not inclusive enough, as opposed to the glorious ANC or ZANU/PF perhaps?
    Amazing what a Green Room and Boystown novels can do to the best of British fighting men. McNab is a novice and useful fool in the culture wars-Lee Rigby deserved better.

      Eric Joyce is just a chronic alcoholic and a scumbag. I saw him on Newsnight several years ago, saying the army was ” WAYCIST, homophobic and anti women !! ”

      If that’s the case, why did Eric Joyce stay in the army for 20 years then ? you’d think he’d leave or was he after the army pension ?
