I’m sure you’ve all seen this….a Muslim is removed from a plane because he spoke Arabic….

A YouTube star’s video about his removal from a Delta Air Lines flight has gone viral across social media.

Adam Saleh told the BBC he was asked to get off the London-New York flight on Wednesday after speaking to his mother in Arabic on the phone.

He said a fellow passenger had expressed feeling uncomfortable.

Delta Air Lines confirmed that two customers were removed after a “disturbance” and said it would investigate the report.

The BBC gives it the full ‘poor little Muslim’ treatment and ends with the information that there is a hashtag you can support…

Soon after the Heathrow incident, the hashtag #BoycottDelta was trending in London and his updates on Twitter were getting lots of shares.

The BBC admits the guy is a prankster who has pulled off some hoaxes..

Mr Saleh is well-known for carrying out pranks, which he posts on YouTube.

Earlier this month, he claimed to have hidden in a suitcase and travelled from Melbourne to Sydney in the hold. It was later exposed as a hoax.

Oddly though they fail to tell us about another well known ‘hoax’ by him, you might call it part of the Media Jihad, that was intended to portray New York police as anti-Muslim…unfortunately the policeman was an actor…that’s not a ‘prank’, that’s deliberate black propaganda intended to whip up anger and protest by Muslims aimed at forcing a subsequent media and political drive to combat supposed ‘Islamophobia’ as Muslims are portrayed as victims.  Just why does the BBC not want us to know about this fakery especially as it is so relevant to the recent incident of fake Islamophobia on the plane?….

This according to a passenger on the plane is what really happened…Saleh and his friend shouted in Arabic across the plane and abused the passengers whilst filming their reactions…they were then chucked off the plane…again why has the BBC not bothered to report or even check out this, some might say, crucial information?…

Is it Friday that 5Live is inviting you to confess your sins and to recant? You voted Brexit but you now realise the error of your ways [having been wisely guided by the new priesthood of the BBC] and you wish to wash away those sins and vote again and again and again…until the the Good Lord Juncker is pleased with what he sees.

Perhaps we better save a bit of space on the open thread for that one…

This is why people hate the slippery, lying politicians and vote for Trump or Brexit….Brendan Cox yesterday….

Nigel Farage has sparked outrage among Labour politicians after linking the widower of murdered MP Jo Cox to “extremists”.

The former UKIP leader criticised Brendan Cox after he questioned the politician’s claim that the Berlin lorry attack was “Merkel’s legacy”.

Mr Cox said “blaming politicians for the actions of extremists” was a “slippery slope”

Brendan Cox 6 months ago [in an article written before the death of his wife but reported after]….

Mainstream politicians are legitimising extremist anti-immigrant views by “aping” far-right rhetoric, the bereaved husband of killed MP Jo Cox has said.

Brendan Cox on that ‘slippery slope’ no?

Merkel is to blame [and not her alone…all those politicians, like Cox himself, who grandstanded and virtue signalled how moral and caring they were as they argued for no controls on immigration], she unilaterally opened the borders without consulting any other EU country and encouraged millions of Muslims [mostly young men and not the women and children the BBC always showed] to flood into Europe, the risk of terrorism is massive but that is not the only consideration…long term German, European, culture and civilisation is under threat.  It would be nice to be asked.  If Europe falls one massive bastion against barbarism in the world falls with it and the world becomes less safe, less humane.

Amusing to listen to the Today programme this morning and hear Montague ignore the German guest as he told her, several times, the real threat to Merkel was from the Left-leaning side of her coalition…Montague kept insisting it was the Right that was her real threat.  Obsessed is the BBC.

Those killed at the Christmas Market would still be alive today if Merkel had kept her mouth, and the borders, shut.

I finally managed to watch the BBC’s little bit of pro-Muslim propaganda, ‘Muslims Like Us’, which was a programme targeted at non-Muslims and intended to alter their perceptions of Muslims.  We are supposed to learn that there is no stereotypical Muslim, no one ‘Islam’ and if we only get to know Muslims we will learn to love them and their foibles.  A huge lie of course…there is only one Islam, Muslims may not follow its teachings…but then they shouldn’t really be considered Muslim.  The absolute central tenet of the religion is one faith, one god, one mosque…hence the raised single finger so many Muslims raise….such as when one killed the Russian ambassador in Turkey.

This is the essence of the programme…

‘This is about a battle for the soul of Islam…what makes a good Muslim’

The problem with that is that it doesn’t genuinely ask, never mind answer, the question…‘What is Islam?’.  What we got was a lot of shouting and not much enlightenment.  In the programme it is fascinating to see that the ‘liberal’ Muslims [of the ten there are two genuinely ‘liberal’ Muslims and one of those is gay and knows pretty much nothing about the religion] don’t want to hear the fundamentals of the religion and in fact they deny what they hear is true despite coming from the Koran and Hadith. Which is interesting as we are told how sacred the Koran is and yet….not so much…the true word of God is dismissed as lies….at one point the Islamic professions by one Muslim were denounced as ‘crazy…his ideas are extremely dangerous…not Islamic’…and yet they were the true Islam.

They all identify as Muslim and yet many did not want the rules and strictures associated with a true following of the religion.

The one genuine Liberal, Naila, was essentially non-practising and her words were very telling….

‘I would be considered a bad Muslim…but a good human being’

She went on to say [I paraphrase]…

‘The Muslim God is a very punishing God…all about guilt and shame…designed for mass control and humiliation…it conditions people’

What’s not to like?

There was a lot of controversy over one supposed ‘extremist’, Abdul Haqq, being on the programme and yet all he did was practise and preach the fundamentals of Islam taken from the Koran and Hadith which is the whole point of the religion….so you have to ask if he is ‘extremist’ is Islam also extreme in itself?  Haqq was genial if obsessed and literal about Islam but make no mistake he wanted to go to Syria to join ISIS…but again if you know what Islam commands he follows that command…to defend Islam when it is under attack…and he has been told enough times that that is the case…the BBC itself tells him so.  Haqq unfortunately wasn’t as much fun as say Andjem Choudary would have been because Haqq knew the lines but lacked the real conviction to continue in the face of criticism.  He was like a pup learning to bark.  In one confrontation we saw complete confusion and self-doubt flicker across his face as a Shia angrily walked away from an argument with him….of course that could all have been in the edit….10 days of filming and we get only two hours of film…a lot of very controversial stuff was missed out…as revealed in personal videos made by some participants after the show ended.

People like Haqq are dangerous, they may draw in a few recruits and eventually go on to do terrible things in Syria given the chance despite being genial in person but he was an obvious ‘danger’, less obvious and all the more insidious was the real danger that came from someone the critics of the show didn’t pick up on…Nabil.

Nabil had an enormous chip on his shoulder…he was black and Muslim and blamed the world for all his ills.  He wore a ‘Black Lives Matter’ T-shirt but he also wore a hoodie with the logo of the extremist Islamist group Cage on it…

With an ever expanding War on Terror, fuelled by a climate of hostility towards our communities, now is the #TimeForCourage. …

The Telegraph reports…

The evidence shows that Cage is a pro-terrorist group

All the evidence shows that Cage is a pro-terrorist group, not a human rights group as Oborne appears to think. Its history of support for terrorists should have closed the argument on them some time ago. We can only suppose that Peter Oborne’s advocacy of the group is based on an ignorance of the relevant facts.

Nabil came across initially as reasonable and friendly but immediately supported Haqq and his view on things.  Nabil’s true character slowly surfaced as he bullied and shut down other people in the house and his grievances were aired.  He was as much an ‘Islamist’ as Haqq though he wouldn’t be heading to Syria any time soon and the problem is that he doesn’t wrap his extremism up in the teachings of the dusty old Koran but in the language of grievance which is far more ‘accessible’ and likely to win ‘recruits’ and he initially had a lot of respect and was listened to until he wrecked it all by his bullying.  He is married to a Pakistani girl which has raised problems, him being of Nigerian extraction…apparently the Nation of Islam isn’t quite so colour-blind as we are lead to believe…..his wife’s family calling him a monkey etc.

Nabil wasn’t the only one to defy the BBC’s preferred narrative as several of the house mates let slip an ever stricter adherence to Islamic ‘values’….such as not going out to have fun…music is haram.  A visit to a war memorial was definitely off the agenda for several of them and one, Humaira, stated that ‘British values for me are colonialism, institutional racism and theft, and genocide.’

Humaira related a tale of Islamophobia in which she was threatened with kidnap, rape and being forced to have the kidnapper’s babies…is that true?  We had no context for the claim but she did manage to force out a tear or two….having seen her ‘act’ in the rest of the show you kind of doubt those tears as she comes across as pretty hard-faced and extreme.

The BBC did naturally thread such claims of Islamophobia and racism throughout the programme though it did allow in a few comments about Asian racism towards Blacks….but generally it’s Whitey.

One dodgy moment came after a night on the tiles and the Syrian housemate, Barra, slipped away and suddenly met up with an EDL member who immediately stated he was such.  Hmmm…what acting school did the BBC recruit him from?  Not saying the BBC faked that but they did didn’t they?  What are the chances…with the cameras being there too?

The BBC’s choice of housemates is another piece of ‘clever’ manipulation….just how representative were these housemates?  Barra was essentially white with blue eyes and blonde hair despite being Syrian, we had the gay one, or was that two?, then a non-practising Muslim westernised woman, an apparently westernised woman who was in love with Haqq and I reckon would slip on the Burka if he asked, an old, white convert who professed to be moderate but was really quite fundamental, a black convert, Haqq, who was there to be the bad boy against whom all others would unite, a radical female that dressed alternately as sexily as she could or in a shroud and who professed herself a moderate but was anything but, and another Black Muslim who may be a convert or not having originated in Nigeria but who was definitely a believer.

I imagine whoever recruited this lot thought they were onto a winner as they looked initially to be ‘moderate’, Haqq aside.  Haqq of course was meant to be the pantomime villain who would show the world that the rest of the Muslim community didn’t respect nor believe in his version of Islam, they are the ‘good’ Muslims…..trouble is you can see that just wasn’t true….They may have objected to ISIS’s excesses but as time went on it gradually became more and more apparent that most of them were ‘Muslim’ and quietly followed the rules despite seeming to rail against them when stated by Haqq.

Far from turning people’s perceptions about Islam and Muslims on their heads this programme just reinforces them.  The oft heard cry in the house was ‘What more can we do to integrate?’…that of course is the question because it isn’t really about going to work or partying, it’s about what’s in their heads…how they perceive Britain and non-Muslims, what they want Britain to be and do they want to Islamise Britain?  When you listen to many of them in the house you don’t hold out much hope.  The BBC brought in 4 non-Muslims to learn about Islam and Muslims…..naturally, despite all they heard and saw, they all  to a man said how wonderful it all was and if only we could get to know each other what a wonderful place the world would be.  Very polite.  Just not true.  Just the usual BBC happy ending tacked onto the end of a programme that demonstrated the exact opposite, that getting to know each other ends in fights as you realise the other person is a bit of an evil bastard.  Paradoxically the BBC spends a great deal of time trying to prevent you knowing what Muslims really think and what Islam really means because it knows the happy clappy schmutter it propagates is nonsense.  I’m thinking the BBC must now think this programme was a bit of a mistake as being all too revealing.

This is an after show video by Nabil, the ‘CAGE’ fanboy…he tells of racism towards him in the house…he should look on the brighter side of slavery and Nigeria deserved to be colonised because it didn’t put up much of  a fight and that Africans built nothing…it was Indians and Whites who brought civilisation to Africa.  Makes you wonder what else was said that would have been of real interest and genuinely instructive about what Muslims really think.

The BBC reports that Nigel Farage may be sued by the far-left  activist group Hate Not Hope for calling them extremists….oh and he’s upset Mr Jo Cox who likes to exploit the death of his wife and yet doesn’t like it when others object. Curiously the BBC seems to have forgotten all about this from 2014…

Ukip leader Nigel Farage has accused anti-fascist campaign groups connected to members of the Labour party of acting violently against him “more than once”.

Mr Farage alleged that members of the Unite against Fascism and Hope not Hate campaign groups had acted in a violent way and accused them turning up to his meetings and banging him “over the head with banners”. Both campaign groups have fully rejected his claims.

Speaking to Andrew Neil on the BBC Sunday Politics show, Mr Farage lamented the need for him to travel with four bodyguards, claiming that he “can’t stand it” because he has “always been a free spirit that’s wandered about the place and done my own thing”.

He told the programme: “Sadly we have a couple of organisations out there headed up by senior Labour party figures, who purport to be against fascism and extremism, who receive funding from the Department of Communities, who receive funding from the trade unions, who have acted in a violent way more than once.”

It transpired Mr Farage was talking about Unite Against Fascism, whose parliamentary officer is Labour MP Peter Hain, and the Hope Not Hate campaign group, one of whose patrons is Labour peer Baroness Kinnock.

The UAF are street thugs who work closely with HnH and it is usually the UAF that provokes violence at EDL marches…some report that it is HnH members who direct the UAF to EDL locations.  HnH was part funded by the government and directed to counter EDL influence in communities…the government’s very own Brownshirts?…the unions also fund HnH….and of course the UAF is from the Unite union….Labour’s favourite funder of choice.

Andrew Gilligan on the UAF…

Anti-fascists fuel the fire of hate

The self-appointed opponents of bigotry can be as ugly as the racist groups they oppose.

The Unite union, amongst many others, funds Labour and the UAF…….Farage is not far wrong is he?

Hope Not Hate has been caught out telling lies about hate crimes…and of course the BBC has been suckered into peddling their lies…because they have a need to believe so journalism and asking a few questions about the supposed data gets kicked into the long grass…but not at The Economist.

A supposed outpouring of online hatred against Jo Cox, a murdered MP, was exaggerated

HOPE NOT HATE, a charity that combats extremism, published a report on November 28th purportedly revealing a mass outbreak of online hate-speech after the murder of Jo Cox, a Labour MP, a week before the Brexit referendum in June. In the month after the killing at least 25,000 people sent more than 50,000 tweets celebrating her death or praising her murderer, Thomas Mair, Hope Not Hate said.

Britain’s largest newspapers leapt to publish the shocking findings. The story was shared far and wide. Angela Eagle, a Labour MP, cast its conclusions as “staggering and appalling”. The news struck as Britain was coming to terms with an increase in hate crimes.

Yet the story was wrong.

An investigation by The Economist has found that Hope Not Hate misrepresented the findings of its own report when first releasing it to the press. The report itself gave a confusing impression of the number of tweets that celebrated Ms Cox’s murder. We estimate that, in reality, of hundreds of thousands of tweets mentioning the MP by name, the number that celebrated her death was at most 1,500, and probably much lower.

The authors write that Twitter “acts as an echo chamber, where hateful comments are reinforced and can impact upon wider community cohesion.” Here they are right—which is why it is important to debunk claims which are not properly supported, including their own. That a single person would celebrate an MP’s murder is terrible.

Yet the public was led to think that such a reaction was widespread online. We do not believe that it was.

The Public was misled about online ‘hate crimes’?  Not just the public of course as politicians jumped on the bandwagon, some all too ready to use this as an excuse to try and smear Brexit and anyone who spoke about immigration as racists and islamophobes.   They should really watch the BBC’s ‘Muslims Like Us’ and then come and have a chat about racism and religiously inspired hate.  It really didn’t turn out the way the BBC would have hoped…except for the loveable, if not somewhat naive [perhaps for the Telly] non-Muslims who rather showed up the Muslims.

And of note is that the BBC’s Emma Barnett had a lovely warm and sympathetic conversation the other week with the mother of  Michael Sandford, you know, the bloke who tried to kill Trump.  The first words that came out of Barnett’s mouth was that he was autistic and had mental health issues….not a word about Thomas Mair’s well known mental health problems though.  Guess trying to kill the ‘monster’ that is Trump is OK really, killing a pro-immigration left-wing MP who espouses all the same values that the BBC does is definitely not OK in the same way.  Always some excuse for those who murder or try to murder others whose values don’t get the BBC stamp of approval.

Just listening to Chiles interviewing a survivor from a ship that sunk when he was 3 years old.

Chiles wants to know if he now has any hangups about water, any fear of water.

The answer?  ‘No, I’m a scuba diver now’.

Quality research and prep by the BBC.

Chiles more than adequately fills Peter Allen’s boots as he goes through life with the same child-like wonder as the world reveals so many new and amazing delights each day.

I wish I was an academic pyschologist or some such….boy the books you could write just now as the Left goes into melt-down.  A study of the post Brexit, post-Trump fevered ravings would occupy you for a lifetime.

Nicola Sturgeon is like a wild-eyed Hitler trapped in his Bunker in the last days, her ever more desperate attempts to cobble together a sly mechanism to achieve Independence by whatever devious and underhand method possible look to anyone on the outside as a madness that has only the slightest connection with reality.  Anyone on the outside other than those at the BBC who take her every utterance as rational, sound and achievable common sense.  Look at their report on her latest absurd folly as she essentially calls for May to give Scotland Independence in order for Scotland to stay in the EU.  How the Today presenter reporting this tosh kept a straight face and didn’t burst out laughing is beyond me.  I stand in admiration at their professionalism, or was it lack of imagination?

It takes the Telegraph to bring you a dose of reality as cold-water is splashed upon the glowing eager faces speaking so confidently of Independence…

Nicola Sturgeon Brexit adviser pours cold water on her single market plans hours before they are unveiled

One of Nicola Sturgeon’s handpicked Brexit advisers has poured cold water on her proposals to keep Scotland in the EU single market even if the UK leaves, only hours before she unveils them on Tuesday morning.

Charles Grant, who sits on the First Minister’s Standing Council on Europe, said it was “extremely difficult” to see how her plans were legally, politically or technically feasible.

In an interview with the Telegraph, he said Scotland staying in the single market without the rest of the UK would require the complete devolution of business regulation and that “clearly isn’t going to be on the cards in the foreseeable future.”

He said proposals for Scotland to stay in the EU’s customs union, a more limited type of free trade area than the single market, without the rest of the UK would also mean customs checks at the border with England.

Among the other flaws he listed were Spain blocking any special deal and Theresa May being unwilling to sign up to a package of powers that would give Scotland “something like dominion status.”

Oddly the BBC fails to mention the comments of someone so very closely involved in Sturgeon’s plans.

The BBC, it goes without saying, would love to see the UK break up and the EU  take control of the regions…divide and rule.  It’s the oldest game in the book.

What else has got the Left frothing at the mouth?  Trump of course but what’s in the headlines right now?  A terrorist atatck in Germany by a Muslim ‘refugee’.  What’s important is not the attack but to quickly damp down any suggestion that this is linked to immigration or Islam and to pillory anyone who dares to suggest such things.

The BBC told us that the ‘anti-immigrant’ AFD ‘seized’ upon the deaths and were seeking to make political profit from it by ‘blaming’ Merkel….the BBC’s language very obviously designed to portray the AFD as a group that is beyond the pale, one that is exploiting this tragedy and trying to manufacture a false narrative about refugees.  The BBC wants you to think there is no connection to Merkel’s lone decision to allow in uncontrolled numbers of Muslim migrants and that to suggest such a thing is racist and irrational.

The Guardian naturally attacks not the killer but Nigel Farage…

Ukip’s former leader Nigel Farage is blowing his dog whistle again. He claimed “events like these will be the Merkel legacy”.

Trouble is it is the Guardian that is ‘dogwhistling’ as it tries to set the hounds upon Farage for his perfectly sound and reasonable comments…let’s face it those people would still be alive if Merkel hadn’t opened the borders….backed loudly by the Guardian and the BBC.

Then again in the Guardian we have Toynbee calling for a Remainer’s revolution to overturn Brexit in a cheery Christmas message…

Our future is being stolen. Be brave and take it back

With Trump and Brexit looming, I can’t say that things will get better next year. But I do know that things will get worse if we don’t fight

She ends with this treacherous nonsense from the man who voted against Article 50, Ken Clarke…

Newspaper columns are supposed to end with solutions, but I’m running low on hope. Instead, I’ll leave you with the reported words of Tory grandee Ken Clarke and implore you to think of this in the months ahead. “Brexit headbangers have made politics nastier than ever, but they are frighteningly well organised,” he said. “If we are going to stop them we have to do the same and not be intimidated by their wall of hate.”

Er…what?  Brexiteers have made politics nastier than ever and a ‘wall of hate’?  No that’s the Left that has resorted to a mass campaign of vilification, abuse and intimidation towards Brexit voters and politicians…Clarke’s own words are a perfect example of the language, abuse and deceitful narratives being used by them.

The BBC were quick to report some graffiti on a mosque but seem less keen to report the full words of the man who killed the Russian ambassador in Turkey. [Note the raised single finger…one God, one faith, one mosque]

The BBC version:

The camera pulls back to show a smartly dressed gunman, wearing a suit and tie, waving a pistol and shouting in Arabic and Turkish.

He can be heard yelling “Don’t forget about Aleppo, don’t forget about Syria” and uses the Arabic phrase “Allahu Akbar” (God is great).

The New York Times version:

The gunman, wearing a dark suit and tie, was seen in video footage of the assault waving a pistol and shouting in Arabic: “God is great! Those who pledged allegiance to Muhammad for jihad. God is great!”

Then he switched to Turkish and shouted: “Don’t forget Aleppo, don’t forget Syria! Step back! Step back! Only death can take me from here.”
