The Far Left Pro EU Pro Islam BBC Cannot , by law , say anything which might influence voting in any part of the EU until 2200 on Sunday 26th . So it gives us the opportunity to record breaches of the law as the BBC makes unlawful comments .

      For large swathes of the Middle East I tend to think of them as ‘The Rubble Countries’. Admittedly a proportion of that rubble was put there by NATO or Israel, but they have always been willing and capable of ruining their own cities and infrastructure without our intervention.

    Painting of Muslim Men Sexually Enslaving White Women Triggers Outrage
    by Raymond Ibrahim
    PJ Media
    May 15, 2019

    “To highlight the apparent threat male Muslim migrants pose to women in Germany, a political party has triggered many on both sides of the Atlantic by using an older painting in its campaign.

    Painted in France in 1866 and titled “Slave Market,” the painting “shows a black, apparently Muslim slave trader displaying a naked young woman with much lighter skin to a group of men for examination,” probably in North Africa.”

        That’s Jerome’s ‘Slave Market’, THE most famous painting of the Victorian Orientalists, with the ‘white slave trade’ (young, European women abducted by Arabs and sold as sex slaves) being a popular theme.

        Victorian era Europeans believed it was a very real threat. Perhaps with some truth, the Barbary Corsairs abducted pretty girls and boys from the South Coast of England for sale in the slave marts of North Africa, from the 16th Century into the 19th.

          I’ve just read ‘The Sealwoman’s Gift’ by Sally Magnusson. The scenes depicted in these paintings occur in her book which is about the plunder of Icelandic islands to take white inhabitants as slaves, by Barbary pirates, to North Africa. I was surprised that she got this published in today’s climate of ‘not offending anyone’. However, although these Muslims were clearly presented in a bad light, as the novel moves on the characters are keen to point out that not only Muslims were the perpetrators of whiteslavery…many Mediterranean towns in the south of France, Italy, were participating in it too. And some of these rich slave buyers were of course presented as benevolent. An interesting read though, and largely factually based. Enjoyed it. Book club anyone? ????

    Dia al-Azzawi is an Iraqi Muslim (b. 1939) who has supported PLO terror campaigns since 1967. About that time, Arafat convinced the PLO to assume the label “Palestinians” and worked to convince the world Jews had no rights in Israel. As an Iraqi, al-Azzawi has no dog in this fight.

    The PLO wasn’t invited into prime real estate in downtown Beirut; they just seized it, as they did much of Lebanon. They didn’t come for peace, but used it as a launch pad into Israel and the rest of the world. The PLO hijacked planes, killed hostages, ambassadors, old men on ships and young girls in schools. For this, Arafat was re-elected, given billions, invited to speak to the UN, and honored with a Nobel Peace Prize. A flurry of sad poems and songs continued to commemorate their plight, from the region’s most honored artists.

    Brigitte Gabriel: I survived the PLO

    Prompting the myth of unjust Christians and Jews, and a gentler PLO, is a central theme in al-Azzawi’s work, although he wasn’t an eyewitness in Lebanon in 1983. But Brigitte Gabriel was there the entire time. Buried alive under the rubble of her home in Southern Lebanon (1975), Brigitte lived to tell exactly what Arafat and the PLO had been doing all those years: jockeying for power, launching continuous raids on northern Israel, killing politicians and attempting to annihilate Lebanon’s Christian communities.

    Brigitte recalls a suddenly hellish childhood when PLO “refugees” sacked at least 60 Christian towns. About 850,000 fled, and uncounted numbers died – much like Syria and Iraq today. From 1974, Israeli soldiers slipped into Southern Lebanon by night, bringing relief supplies to besieged towns. They trained men to fight the well-armed Palestinians. Brigitte recounts how at 13 she dressed in her Easter dress, because she “did not want to look ugly” when she died. Christians had good reason to fear and fight.

    Who could possibly be responsible ??? and how would it go down if they were told not to wear their viels in public ??

    The German government’s anti-Semitism commissioner has urged Jews to avoid wearing skullcaps in public.

    Felix Klein warned Jews against donning the kippa in parts of the country, following a rise in anti-Semitism.

    Mr Klein said his opinion on the matter had “changed compared with what it used to be”.

    “I cannot recommend to Jews that they wear the skullcap at all times everywhere in Germany,” he told the Funke newspaper group.

    German fury at Holocaust memorial remark
    Berlin anti-Semitic attack caught on video

    A sharp increase was recorded last year by the German government last year in the number of anti-Semitic offences.

    Official figures showed 1,646 hate crimes against Jews were committed in 2018 – an increase of 10% on the previous year.

    Physical attacks against Jews in Germany also rose in the same period, with 62 violent incidents recorded, up from 37 in 2017.

    Speaking to the Handelsblatt newspaper, Justice Minister Katarina Barley said the increase in anti-Semitic crimes was “shameful for our country”.

    German police are investigating an assault on two young men in Berlin, in which the attacker was filmed shouting anti-Semitic abuse.

    The men say they were harassed in the Prenzlauer Berg area on Monday while wearing Jewish skullcaps (kippahs).

    A video of the incident, which was later shared on Facebook, shows the attacker hitting the men with his belt.

    He is heard shouting “Yahudi”, an Arabic word for Jew, before being dragged away by another man.

    No mention of the religion of the attacker in this instance (or in general). But they let one tiny clue slip through the censorship net: “the attacker, shouts “Yahudi”, an Arabic word for Jew”.

        I dont think there is a cats chance in hell that Tommy Robinson, even if he gets the most votes, will be elected in Manchester. Think about it, we as a country in a UK election, voted to leave the EU and still have not been allowed to go.
        Tommy has not only the Government, the establishment (including the judiciary), and the media ranged against him, he has the EU.
        If a few thousand votes go “missing” for a few minutes – who is going to report it? – the BBC, SKY, Channel 4? A word or threat in the right ear, works wonders.
        We have already seen how our supposedly “unbiased” police acted as private security and tour guides for those Pakistani thugs last week at his rally.

    Guardian Opinion Sat 25 May 2019 08.00 BST
    [I could not find this in the Guardian yesterday, probably published in another astral plane, inaccessible to normal people.]

    “Like many women before her, Theresa May was set up to fail
    Stefan Stern”

    “While men like Chris Grayling manage to keep their jobs, the prime minister’s failure will confirm to macho
    Westminster that women just can’t cut it”

    [The Guardian ridiculous premise for yesterday/today is – the resignation of Theresa May is partially due to her own inadequacies, but mainly due to Conservative men! NB, this may not be the only Guardian ridiculous premise today, I have not read, let alone performed a seriatim analysis of, all other current Guardian opinion articles. No comments allowed, so curiosity leads one to investigate.]

    “Theresa May was handed a difficult task and she botched it. By her own admission, she failed.
    But then there is no such thing as a good Brexit, and no one can achieve one.”

    [“botched it”? May has been a success. She has prevented a timely Brexit. She has destroyed the unity of one of the most successful political parties in European history. She promised £39 billion to the EU for SFA. Long lists could be made of similar May successes. But not one short list could be made of May successes, in tasks she was charged to perform, because she is a traitor.
    Possibly the most successful, deep penetration agent ever infiltrated into a patriotic party in the whole history, to date, of the disgusting, mass murdering, left.]

    [“there is no such thing as a good Brexit, and no one can achieve one.” This ranks, very high, in the all time Guardian list of unbelievable, unsupported, assertions. Stefan just invents this to make the low IQ, Guardian readership, salivate in anticipation of their next five minutes hate.

    Currently, zero persons, in a position to take the UK out of the EU, so have genuinely attempted to do so. 100% have tried to permanently block Brexit. Many senior persons charged with, and very well paid to, facilitate Brexit, have acted in a manner diametrically opposed to Brexit.

    Certainly leaving the EU is a complex, complicated task. Deliberately made more difficult by the Cuncators of today.
    Trump would have Brexitted in two days.
    More lying Guardybollocks Stefan.]

    “This is the classic “glass cliff” scenario.”
    “The term glass cliff was coined in 2005 by the academics Michelle Ryan and Alex Haslam of the University of Exeter.
    They found that women, and members of ethnic minority groups, are frequently offered promotions to top jobs when an organisation is struggling or facing a crisis.”

    [Stern now “demonstrates” than men are to blame.
    Ryan and Haslam have Wikipedia articles, as does the “glass cliff”.
    The glass cliff article is in Wikiproject Gender Studies, Wikiproject Discrimination, Wikiproject Feminism, not in Wikiproject Conspiracy Theories.
    There are no numbers whatsoever in the glass cliff article. “more likely”, how much more likely, we are not told.
    Stefan does not produce any statistics either, “frequently” is good enough for Guardian readers.
    The article begins “The glass cliff is the phenomenon of women ..” No doubt whatsoever, the glass cliff exists and men are to blame.
    The article also notes that :-
    “Other research has FAILED TO CONFIRM the existence of glass cliff phenomenon. A 2007 study of corporate performance preceding CEO appointments showed that women executives are no more likely to be selected for precarious leadership positions than males.[10]” (My capitalisation) Forgot to mention that Stefan?]

    “Men can fail and fail again in business and yet their careers may flourish.”
    “For female business leaders it is more often one strike and you’re out.”

    [Stern then cherry picks a few example which support the position he is trying to create. No numbers here either.]

    “Stefan Stern is co-author of Myths of Management”
    [I bet he is. Most of the links in this article are to other Guardian content.]

    The BBC’s report about Jews being urged to avoid wearing skullcaps in public in Germany to avoid attacks is yet another example of its bias by omission.
    As with so much BBC “news”, you have to look elsewhere to find true balance and objectivity.
    The BBC pins this worrying development squarely on the rise of the far right in Germany.
    Felix Klein, Germany’s commissioner on anti Semitism, did indeed blame the far right for the large majority of anti Semitic attacks.
    But he also said something else, which the BBC chooses to ignore. Other news outlets provide the whole picture.
    Both The Guardian and TimesLive report Klein as stating that it is also apparent that some Muslims in Germany are being influenced by watching certain television channels “which transmit a dreadful image of Israel and Jews”.
    Meanwhile, The Times of Israel quotes German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas. He said that hatred of Jews in Germany was “not an imported product,” but he also stated that crimes by immigrants should also be looked at “just as decisively.”
    And here is some background context. Holocaust survivor Charlotte Knobloch, head of Munich’s Jewish community, said in 2017: “The Muslim associations have for decades not only done nothing [to combat anti-Semitism], rather they have allowed anti-Semitic hate preachers from Muslim countries to bring their anti-Jewish ideology into German mosques and into the heads of young Muslims.”

        “We are shocked, that in living memory of the Holocaust, where our people and others were butchered in the name of a racist ideology, that any Jews can support fascism and racism. We say to Tommy Robinson, and to the very few Jewish people who support him: ‘The Community do not support you, you are not welcome in our city’.”

          G.W.F.

          There are other Jews with opposing opinions, including the Hassidim from Manchester.

          Here Avi Yemini, one of Tommy Robinson’s strongest (Jewish) supporters debunks all this junk about him being anti-Semitic and even a Nazi with a powerful video, including info on Tommy’s visit to Israel.

          Ezra Levant, another strong supporter, is also Jewish.

          I’ve no doubt that those Jews who despise Tommy get their ‘news’ from the likes of the BBC.

      Ed Hitter,

      Good post. Trust the BBC to only print the news it likes.

      This New York Times magazine article examines the question of anti-Semitism in Germany comprehensively and objectively.

      If a BBC hack would perhaps stumble on the article, He/she might even learn something about real journalism.

    “Globalists are patriots who have a worldview that is not limited to the political boundaries of one state.”

    Enjoy!
    Globalists cling to so-called, ‘Climate Change’ as in their distorted anti nationalist view, CC can only be overcome by a collective effort across borders. Hence the need for Globalism and hence the perpetuation of the concept of CC against the objective science. In that respect, the mechanics of CC is a blend of prevailing non-science (or distorted science) and Cultural Marxism which sets out to defeat logic and objectivity.

    Can I suggest that visitors to this site read Peter Hitchens column in the Mail on Sunday, in which he revisits what he predicted would happen with Toxic Tess’s premiership.

    He makes some really rather chilling predictions about Boris Johnson, who is really little better than she was, and the statement I have made, that the Tory party is now beyond saving regardless of who heads it up.

      The trouble with Peter Hitchens is that he doesn’t seem to get behind anything but is cynical about just about everything and everybody.
      He may be spot on in this case and others but in my experience Eeyore/Benjamin types don’t get listened to because people have given up listening because they induce depression and sap the will to live after a while.

      But I am curious to know why Amber Rudd is now backing Boris.
      It is a worry.

        Amber is backing Boris in a last ditch attempt to get a bit of rumpy-pumpy on the taxi ride home – before her looks fade.

      I agree with what Hitchens says. As for Boris, he was never a true leaver. He sat on the fence until the very last moment then jumped the way he thought he could gain most politically. He is also very shaky on migration. The press like him because he is “fun” and is always a good story, but I am afraid we actually need a leader with vision and real gravitas rather than a leader (who just like Theresa) wants to lead for its own sake and there are very few of those left in the Tory party.
      It is also interesting that Daughter of Theresa – “Hate Crimes Rudd” is now talking about a political tie up with Boris, and Hammond is also making noises about supporting him. Whilst I suppose that these stories could well have been put about by the Parliamentary party just to stop Boris, I think they do have the ring of truth. Why would you tie up with these two treacherous muppets?
      In todays telegraph we also have Mrs Quislings lapdog Gove crawling out of the woodwork declaring himself as some sort of unity candidate. Whose unity, the Tories or the country? – I think we all know the answer to that. Why do we need “unity” remain lost the referendum, or is “unity” now another word for BRINO? There used to be a time in this country that when you lost a vote – the other side won- but hey! these are strange days!
      Even forgetting that the parliamentary arithmetic is against leaving (as the elite rise against the masses – thank you Mark Stein) To be perfectly honest, this all shows in my book why the Tories still dont get it and can never be trusted again.
      The only winners in all of this will be the EU and the BBC political correspondents. All that will happen is that they will be polishing a whole new set of turds, and I include in this the careers of Katya Adler and Laura Kuensborg.
      The only way, we will ever achieve Brexit is to dump these mainstream parties and look elsewhere. Fortunately now, we dont have to look to far.

      John,

      I really don’t know where the media get the impression that anyone outside their bubble considers Boris to be anything but a buffoon.

      Then again, they don’t give a toss about any opinions other than those they’ve all agreed on anyway.

      As I Am Kloot sing in ‘Fingerprints’, the whole shower of them at the minute are simply “people whose ideas are just what other people say”.

    T May is certainly now out of the running for EU employee of the month, Nevertheless, the worrying thing is that because of the convoluted nature of the Leadership election she could still be running the government for anything from two to six weeks until her replacement is elected.
    She could do a lot of damage in that time, being the sort of person she is. What the country really needs is an impartial caretaker leader with only a limited mandate until the new leader is in place.

    All out of the UK – for the moment. A touch of, ‘out-of-sight-out-of-mind’ I believe. Thats only because the muslims have not yet reached critical mass in the UK. I will not be around when that point is reached and the lambs in the UK will willingly sail obliviously to that point without having reacted violently to resist on the way. Snowflakes, don’t we love em’

    Interesting that the BBC are now talking about traitor Tories forcing a vote of no confidence in the government if Boris wins the leadership.

    This party is a lost cause, with ego maniacs isolated in their own bubbles determined to have it their way or nothing at all.

    Of course a sane and reasonable party would de-select every one of them and replace them with better candidates who are conservative in their outlook, and able to work as a team.

    This is the party whose selectors managed to miss out on Tony BLiar and Nigel Farage, can you imagine the power of the Tories if they had somehow managed to push these two.
    Of course it seems that having gone to the right school, or having the right skin colour is now more important to them.
