“Islamophobia” in the Philippines
Philippines: Christians Slaughtered, Churches Bombed
by Raymond Ibrahim
February 5, 2019 at 4:00 am
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/13658/philippines-christians-slaughtered
The new terrorism in the Philippines is not merely inspired by political or territorial grievances, real or imagined, but rather is imbued with intrinsic hate for the “other” — for the “infidel.”
In May 2017, in the city of Marawi, a civilian bus was stopped by jihadis; when 9 passengers were discovered to be Christian — apparently because they were not able to quote the Koran — they were tied together and shot dead, execution style. The jihadis who took over Marawi during the uprising forced women into sex-slavery and ordered Christian men embrace Islam or be used as human shields against the Philippine Army.
January’s deadly church-bombing, which claimed 20 lives and wounded more than 100, is the latest reminder that, as with other nations that have a sizeable Muslim minority, the Philippines is embroiled in the jihad. While the ostensible reason behind it may be political or territorial, the sadistic hate that accompanies attacks on Christians and their churches suggests that ideology is the ultimate cause.

Same story all over the world.
It’s as clear as daylight… except to a beeboid.
And of course these horror stories are rarely mentioned on the beeb – or buried deep – and the murderers are rarely called muslims or islamists, but the rather more dainty ‘separatists’, sort of like freedom fighters – think French Resistance, Allo Allo. (Same in Thailand and other countries.)

Will, congrats on making it to the top.
Before you crash, I think we can manage a No-Deal Brexit, especially if the PM is astute enough to whip that £39bn back into her handbag as she leaves Brussels for the last time before 29 March.
ON TOADY Prog (R4 7.30-8am) we had more Project Fear no.something or other, v.latest one today, fired up at The Potteries. (Pauses for joke to take effect, laughter and loud applause – “Eeeeuughh – not a sossynge!” – looks at audience. ‘Thinks: Glazed eyes looking back at me.’ T’heeeee heeee!)
They wheeled on two economists; Aussie or Kiwi bloke (Doris from Bristol: “Oh, no! Not again!”) and British woman to talk about how a UK Zero Import Tariff imposed on 30th March might effect our houseware & collector ceramics producers.
The woman talked mostly rubbish – am guessing she was a Remainer – the bloke was rather more balanced and a proper economist. It would have been great to have had Linda Yueh on [am ‘bigging you up’ again for second day in a row, Linda 😉 ] to explain the realities of international trade with the Far East, transport costs, other charges and product placement on the Niche Production Scale from mass market to high end.
But the BBC do not want economic reality and truth to shed light on the EU and its relationship with itself, us and the world. That might make even more decent members of the public who respect democracy but who voted Remain think: ‘Well, maybe it will not be anything like as bad as they claim. I’ll give it a go after 29th March 2019.’
The BBC will keep on attacking Brexit, and No-Deal especially, right up until (maybe beyond?) 2 April 2019. Vile BBC.

It’s going to be hugely entertaining watching the furore over Neeson’s comments, and watching him contort himself to explain that just because he wanted to kill blacks didn’t make him a racist.
I expect him to come up with a version of ‘some of my best friends are black’ any time soon, if he hasn’t already.
I have nothing against the man, but any Hollywood luvvie getting hoist by his tribe’s own liberal petard is going to be fun.

Deborah – The reaction to the Liam Neeson story is absurd. Do the press want him to say sorry for having those feelings forty years ago – or for daring to describe those feelings now? Either way it won’t do Neeson any good to say sorry. Once your card is marked by the progressives, they don’t forgive and forget. Not that he has anything to apologise for anyway – his remarks were brave and honest and he did say he felt ashamed of those thoughts and feelings which were nevertheless quite understandable given the ordeal of his friend. All of us have murderous feelings at times. But since most of us are highly socialised, civilised people who have learned to control our impulses, these rarely manifest themselves in actions. But the progressive Left are hypocrites. They will not acknowledge that they share the same human nature as everyone else. They assume they are morally superior over the rest of us. Hate and in-group preference are not part of their make-up – oh, no! – as they hurl abuse at Brexiteers and Christians and Gammons and make up phobias and isms with which to classify and traduce their ideological opponents. You don’t even have to commit a crime to become their victim. It is enough to utter a proscribed word or confess to a feeling they don’t like for these idiots and fanatics to hound you out of a job, destroy your reputation or get you sent to jail. We really are up against evil people.

“…feelings which were nevertheless quite understandable given the ordeal of his friend.”
Erm, no. Going out with the intent to murder a random person for no other reason than they had the same approximate skin tone as a rapist; is not “quite understandable”.
“All of us have murderous feelings at times”.
Erm, no. “All of us” most certainly do not.
“…most of us are highly socialised, civilised people who have learned to control our impulses…”
Erm, no. Highly socialised, civilised people don’t have murderous impulses in the first place; so don’t have to “control” anything.
“But the progressive Left are hypocrites. They will not acknowledge that they share the same human nature as everyone else.”
Ahh… “it’s human nature”; the last excuse of the bigot.

Maxi says “Highly socialised, civilised people don’t have murderous impulses in the first place; so don’t have to control anything”
What an insight this is into the mind of flake. Is it ideology or idiocy one might well ask, but one thing is for sure is that it is complete fantasy. Are we to believe that there are a super race of these beings living and working among us. Shades of Erich von Daniken!
At least his super beings lived on another planet.
Maxi’s dead giveaway line is where he dislikes the term ‘Human Nature’. Leftists abhor this idea. For them the human mind is a blank sheet at birth (tabula rasa) and is conditioned by hostile forces such as home, family, church, capitalism etc to think in a certain way detrimental to the good of society. That’s why the Left are always keen to control thought and speech of others. They really believe that this is the way of the future paradise on Earth.
‘Human nature doesn’t exist’ is a strongly held dogma of the Loony Left and it is why I call them reality deniers.
I would love to dwell among highly socialised and civilised people who never have a bad thought in their life. But methinks such a high society, even if it could come into existence, would soon fall victim to lesser, non-civilised beings by such as those who in their thousands calling for the execution of the likes of Asia Bibi, unless they retained at least some of their more basic instincts.
T’was ever thus.

“Presenter Robin Roberts asked if he would have reacted the same if the culprit was from a different demographic, Neeson said: “Oh definitely, if she said Irish, Scot, Brit or Lithuanian, I know I would have felt the same effect.”
So Mr Neeson, what exactly does a Scot,Brit or Lithuanian look like? the hate crimes just keep mounting.

So he’s now hated by blacks, Irish, Scots and Lithuanians. He forgot the Welsh but perhaps he can alienate them too in his next foot-in-mouth interview.

But i’m not sure, I can’t always follow feminists’ latest grievance thinking.
If it was all a big publicity stunt, it’s half working: plenty of publicity, mostly bad. And the red carpet premiere of Cold Pursuit has been cancelled, so mixed results on that front too.

Gamal Fahnbulleh,
Straight outta Taunton.
It’ll be interesting to see who will be the first to incorrectly associate Neeson with the DUP as both he and DUP founder Ian Paisley are from my hometown. Neeson was given the Freedom of the Borough a few years ago but was stopped from being given the honour for years because he said that as a Catholic he felt “second class” in Ballymena and was afraid to go out doors during the Twelfth of July celebrations and the Unioist council was this as an undeserved sleight. Maybe he did feel this way, but it didn’t and doesn’t stop many acquaintances I share with him enjoying a drink together on that day, regardless of their religion.
The fact that they are at opposite ends of the political spectrum will not hinder someone with links to the bBBC-Guardian-SKY attempting to associate them through an imagined and shared bigotry.

Sorry about the state of that post.
Afraid to go outdoors. The Unionist led council saw this criticism as being an undeserved sleight on the town.
Liam Neeson was brought up in mixed council housing, went to a state secondary school, drank in mixed pubs, and had the same access to education, housing, healthcare and employment as everyone else in Ballymena, regardless of their religion. Much like Gamal in Taunton, although unlike Gamal, unable to afford a place at a fee-paying independent school.
Neesons’ partner for a long period of time, Helen Mirren, also made some derogatory remarks, very much in line with the superior political insight that a career based on getting your breasts out at every opportunity affords you.

My first thought on the Neeson story was that he’s getting on a bit. Yes, I know you need to look past the botox, and the inch thick foundation, and the Just for Men ‘Aged Bronze’, but did I read he’s 67 now?
Why is that relevant? Well, observing my parents (mid 70s) and other older relations, I’ve noticed that with age comes wisdom, and a certain ‘relaxing’ of pretensions, the uptightness of middle age and trying to say the ‘right thing’ and not upset the apple cart, at work, parents evenings, and in social situations (which I know well) gives way to a certain, basic honesty of expression. People seem to stop pretending to be something they’re not and just say what they honestly feel… and the result of this is not always pretty… or very PC.
Bearing this in mind, I think it could be fascinating to be a fly on the wall chez Attenborough… now there’s a thought for a new BBC documentary.

I never go out of my way to upset anyone intentionally, but equally if my opinions are not PC, than that’s someone else’s problem, not mine. Life is getting shorter for me, and I don’t intend to pussyfoot or walk on eggshells for anyone.

BBC, I’ve given more thought to the above.
Its also worth remembering that my generation – teenagers in the 60’s, were brought up with a much different mindset to now. Morally we were little different to our parents generation who lived through the war years (all that ‘free’ love only happened in London 🙂 ), but we were taught manners and respect, – particularly to the elderly and disabled, which we still hold dear. PC meant Police Constable, so we laughed, nay roared at the comedy on the tv – the difference was there was no malice intent.
Fast forward to now, and social media has spawned an ‘angry’ generation who lack manners, respect and most of all humour. Free speech has all but gone for fear of breaking the PC code.
I fear for the schoolchildren of today, because its hard to imagine the sort of UK they will be living in in 30 years time.
I’m glad I’m the age I am, I had a safe childhood environment where stranger danger was a rarity, so we walked to school and learnt independence. I had a fabulous teenage life, yes sex was a rarity – nice girls just ‘didn’t’, but it didn’t matter as the guys were just as nervous anyway. I didn’t go to Yuni, but like many others, we grew up quickly as we had jobs and responsibility as young as 20. Now I’m part of the generation who knows we had the best of times.

Again we see that Anthony Zurcher cannot write an article on Trump without demonstrating his hostility towards the president:
“He boasted of ongoing negotiations with North Korea.”
“When it comes to domestic policy, his proposals are effectively dead in the water.”
Maybe, maybe not. But if so, why not lay the blame on Democrats for obstructing those policies, driven by their loathing of Trump.
“They were filler in the speech, delivered without enthusiasm.”
Could be, I haven’t listened to it. Obviously Zurcher would never describe Obama in those terms. And he would never say Obama had “boasted.”
The Democrats would be mostly to blame for Trump’s perceived or actual lack of enthusiasm re domestic matters. Fox News has played clips of Obama and others putting forward identical Trump proposals before Trump became president. They will backtrack and lie and deceive and do anything but support him.
Zurcher knows this, or should know it. But, pickled as he is in his bias, he will never acknowledge it.

The manufactured hysteria following Liam Neeson’s recent admissions about irrational feelings he had forty odd years ago rumble on. Apparently (and I don’t watch this crap) it was covered by Loose Women yesterday afternoon.
A couple of these delightful women, Janet Street Porter and some bint I’ve never heard, of said they would now boycott his films. He must be gutted.
It jogged my memory about an incident, maybe a decade ago, when Ms Porter found herself in a little race row of her own, following a dust up with neighbour. She was accused of calling the woman “a black bitch.” but denied it. “We’d been arguing” she said, “it was my sister’s funeral and I was stressed and I did swear at her, but I didn’t racially abuse her.” Oh yeh, I’ll believe you.
Meanwhile in merry old south London there was another stabbing last night. Another “youth” is dead while the media seem to say “oh well” and concentrate on an event that didn’t happen four decades ago.
The PC mob are going through their regular, frenzied two minutes of hate.
Liam will be dragged before the cameras to be roundly condemned. The great and the good will be fighting to get on television to say how utterly horrified they are. No doubt we’ll hear from the saintly Mrs Lawrence.
Liam will apologise and grovel, but his career will probably be over.
Meanwhile in merry old south London…

I haven’t been watching any of this garbage. The minute I saw Mandela was in it, I took it for granted he would win.
I recall the beeb stopped their programmes on his death and launched numerous programmes of commemoration in his honour. Quite embarrasing actually, Her Maj won’t do better when she goes.
Beeb forgot that, despite pretending to be a reconciler who created the ‘Rainbow Nation’ thing, he was actually a terrorist in every sense of the word.
Before 1990, his objective was to make his country ‘ungovernable’. this could be achieved by everything from planting bombs in public places to the orgy of ‘necklacing’ that went on against fellow blacks who were thought to be out of line.
He wanted power. He got it.

A long sympathetic BBC piece on the plight of the blind with guide dogs, being refused by taxi drivers, almost always “mini cabs” which these days are often Uber. The crux of the matter seems to be that many of these drivers do not like taking dogs, either pretending they have an allergy or just taking one look and driving off. Why should this be? Well, the BBC is not going to tell us. And we know why. And that is because the vast proportion of minicab and Uber drivers , especially in the cities are, how shall I say this, of a faith that abhors the dog as unclean. So here we have a BBC story that dares not speak its theme. Such cowardice, such hypocrisy.

The growth of dog fighting is under reported in the UK, probably for the same reasons grooming gangs are under reported. Traditionally the dog fighting gangs were white working class. But evidence suggests they are Muslim gangs although efforts are taken to conceal the M word in reports and prosecutions.

The dogs are frequently ferried to and from the fights in taxis. I need to check this further. Help appreciated.

Keith Jeremy,
It’s a case of the blind leading the blind. But while blind people have a genuine disability they can’t do anything about, the BBC is sighted and therefore has no excuse for pretending not to see relevant facts. The hacks who work for the BBC are indeed cowards, cowed by Islam.

No doubt the BBC was delighted to plonk a video clip of EU dictator Donald Tusk on its website, if only because the foul dictator thinks there is “a special place in hell’ reserved for Brexit voters.
Apparently the foul one is insisting on the backstop, along with his foul colleagues involved in the ‘negotiations.’
On the one hand I’m encouraged by this as it seems to indicate that May will not be able to bring a ‘revised’ deal back to parliament and that it will therefore be voted against again and the UK will then leave with no deal. On the other hand, I fear the EU has more tricks up its sleeve to deny Brexit before the end of March.

Tuned into LBC and listened to Sheila Fogerty pleading on behalf of the Jamaican criminals being deported and how unjust it is. To reinforce her argument, she had an African on the phone from Nigeria who was deported for fiddling HMRC out of £250 K. She also had the usual SJW from some obscure organisation who championed the rights of foreign criminals as well. I sat there just about to switch station when an amazing woman phoned. She said she was white and the victim of an attempted rape by a ‘man’ from Sierra Leone. The man was apprehended but went through several appeals against being deported over many years. Fogerty tried to convince the caller to think about his human rights but the woman stuck to her guns and argued she was the victim and she had human rights. She went on say she only got closure was when the lowlife got deported. I’ve never heard St Sheila as cowed as she was. Call ended and Fogerty went straight to the next caller, a blackman who left the UK to live in Holland to escape the racism.
I don’t think you could get a better demonstration of the gulf between people who live in the media / political bubble and the rest of us who leave in the real world.

The Labour MP for Tottenham was browsing Twitter during a Commons debate and saw a BBC news item about the chimney erected over the Sistine Chapel with the caption: “Will smoke be black or white?” Within seconds he tweeted: “This tweet from the BBC is crass and unnecessary.

‘Warwick university students protest over rape chat probe.’
What losers. They should be getting drunk or reading.
It was a private chat in which statements were made which were obviously jokes; I found the one about emulating Soviet invaders somewhat amusing. Who actually intends to carry out a re-enactment of one of the worst mass rapes in history ffs? And on a Warwick university campus? A specific, credible threat (perhaps even said in public rather than privately) or an actual physical approach is concerning but this is patently absurd.
Read between the lines and there is clearly an ulterior motive here. Perhaps one gentleman jilted one of the complainants. To try and ruin someone’s life like this over a drunken text message is the really appalling thing here. It also sets the most chilling precedent, one which is obviously cheered by the abhorrent Beeb.
We used to joke about much worse stuff at university and it was incredibly funny. Men have always bonded through humour like this; it probably evolved from all that dying on the battlefield etc. So much SJW garbage these days is just attacking masculinity.
There is never any fun or humour with progressives: it is all about as enjoyable as having your penis hacked off. As well as being so wrong about everything, this is a huge reason why they are losing the culture war. I would much rather be getting drunk making jokes about war crimes than protesting about jokes – what a sorry bunch of joyless losers.

Admittedly, Spike Lee is a bit of an easy target – he has plenty of form for this sort of thing – but in the 90s after visiting South Africa, he told The Guardian: “I seriously wanted to pick up a gun and shoot whites. The only way to resolve matters is by bloodshed.”
Lee is nominated at this year’s Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director for his film BlacKkKlansman.
By that standard, surely there’s still hope for Neeson’s career?
