Blood Libel?

 

The Telegraph tells us [The BBC website doesn’t]:

Survey shows anti-Semitic views are common among Britons

Antisemitic views have been shown to be rampant among British people according to the results of a new polls.

 

Of course it doesn’t say which ‘British People’ are the ones who predominantly hold such views.

Of course one of the factors in generating antipathy towards the Jews in those surveyed must be the media reporting from Gaza, one powerful media group in particular.

As Tony Hall said he wanted to be completely honest, transparent, open and accountable perhaps he should now disclose what the Balen Report said concerning BBC reporting from the the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians.

If it is completely anodyne why hide it?

If it is utterly damning then it must be laid open to inspection.

If the BBC’s reporting has resulted in the creation of an anti-Semitic ‘backlash’, to coin a phrase, then it should be held to account.

If the BBC fails to publish the report then perhaps it is time for government to force an inquiry into the BBC’s behaviour if it has had such seriously detrimental consequences for a particular community in the UK, and around the world.

BBC News kills Jews?

The Far Right Blitzkreig Or Far Fetched Bull***t?

 

The BBC has been warning us for years of the huge threat posed by the ‘Far Right’, battalions of whom were ready to strike at any moment with panzers rolling down the Mall and stormtroopers rounding up undocumented citizens for deportation.

Seems it was all a bit far fetched.

 

Far right in UK ‘weakest for 20 years’

 

Interesting to note how they conflate the BNP, the EDL and UKIP all into one ‘Far Right’ group.

Not all Muslims are terrorists remember but all people who talk about immigration are Nazis according to the BBC.

 

 

 

 

 

Ou Est Le Freedom De Speech?

 

 

Having a mooch around looking at various Muslim reactions to recent events and I came across this letter from the Home Office to one of these so called ‘interfaith’ groups…..whether you believe in the genuine good intentions of those who set it up others can better inform you than me.

Home office
James Brokenshire MP
PARLIAMENTARY UNDER SECRETARY FOR CRIME AND SECURITY
2 Marsham Street, London SWlP 4DF

www.homeoffice.gov.uk
Mehri Niknam MBE
Executive Director
Council of lmams and Rabbis
The Joseph lnterfaith Foundation
Suite 2, Savant House
63-65 Camden High Street
NW1 7JL

CTS Reference: M1919811 1 2 1 NOV 2011

Thank you for your letter of 31 October informing the Home Secretary that the
Council of lmams and Rabbis of the Joseph lnterfaith Foundation has sought to
dispel the false perception that the Jewish Community supports the English
Defence League (EDL). I am responding as the Home Office Minister
responsible for policy in this area.
Although community cohesion is primarily the responsibility of the Department for
Communities and Local Government your letter has been noted at the Home
Office. We welcome your positive action to counter the divisive influence and
minimise the impact of EDL activity.

As a Government our position is clear, we will not tolerate groups like the EDL
who spread hate, seek to divide us and deliberately raise community fears and
tensions.

We will:

  • Speak out and condemn their views and actions where appropriate;
  • Continue to develop an effective public order policing response;
  • Engage with local areas to support local action to tackle the EDL;
  • And develop our knowledge base so that we better understand the drivers of
    EDL support and can develop successful approaches to deal with the
    problem.

Local agencies know their communities best and we trust them to put in place
suitable local measures to counter the influence and minimise the impact of EDL
activity. We stand ready to provide advice and support where it is requested.

Signed James Brokenshire

 

 

I wonder if the BBC received a letter along similar lines as part of an orchestrated media campaign against the EDL?

Quite clearly the government set out to crush the EDL…despite it merely being an organistaion that spoke out about extremist Islam…..in fact it said what the BBC’s John Ware said on Panorama last night….only they were decried as Islamophobes and racists ‘polluting’ people’s minds if I remember correctly what Sarah Montague said…..the interview that Mehdi Hasan thought too easy going, so much so that he created his own list of questions that the BBC should ask Tommy Robinson….and you know what the BBC obliged, Andrew Neil, of all people, being Hasan’s stooge sent in to do his dirty work a couple of days later.  Fast movers when they want to be in reaction to certain ‘listener’s complaints’!

No doubt the German government has learnt much from the British on how to malign, discredit and sideline such groups…groups like Pegida are in the firing line whilst Islamist groups like the MCB get handouts and knighthoods and extremists like Tariq Ramadan actually advise the government on Islam and freedom of religion!    But then we did have the rather dodgy Baroness Warsi in charge of that….the same Baroness who wanted to disarm Israel and arm Hamas!

Couldn’t make it up could you?

Look forward to a John Ware investigation into that web of intrigue and betrayal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Backtrack

 

Tim Wilcox is feeling the heat:

The Daily Mail explains:

BBC reporter faces calls to resign after he tells daughter of Holocaust survivors after Paris attacks: ‘Palestinians suffer hugely at Jewish hands as well’

 

Not badly chosen words at all…just the usual BBC mantra that the Jews in Europe somehow bring retribution upon themselves by Israel’s policy of defending itself when under attack.

That’s one ‘backlash’ that the BBC seems to approve of.

 

Perhaps Wilcox should apologise to his fellow ‘Tim Wilcox’ who hasn’t been impressed by the attention he’s receiving:

Fair enough.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Insult or Fair Criticism?

 

B7NB4__CYAAele5

 

Christopher Hitchens gives a very measured and scholarly take down of Islam…..is it ‘insulting’ or respectable, intelligent and ‘acceptable’ comment?

 

 

 

The BBC is already mounting its counter punch to the ‘defiant’  Charlie Hebdo cartoon published in reaction to the murders of its staff.  The Today programme (07:36) brought on someone from the Muslim Association of Britain…an extremist outfit and the British offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Then on came Prince Hussein of Jordan who condemned the publication and was outraged at suggestions that Islam might be a threat to the European civilisation.

Naughtie asked how he thought Europe should deal with the situation..what is required on our part?…hmmm…is it us that is the problem then?

An irony eh?

The publication of a cartoon is yet again portrayed as insulting and provocative, one that the BBC abhors…and yet the Muslim reaction of intense, extreme violence is explained away, excused and justified.

Print a cartoon satiring violence and you are a neo-Nazi Islamophobe…savagely kill those who produce such cartoons and you are quietly feted as defenders of a Great Faith insulted.

Naughtie thinks it is merely a problem of a few extremists blackening the name of Islam…you can count them on the fingers of one hand perhaps.

Hussein hopes that the media can be more aware of the importance of sharing the knowledge, analytical knowledge [about the issues]….just after he wished that people used the #JeSuisAhmed hashtag [Naughtie giving a snort of approval]…..which I analyse here for his benefit.

There is nothing less likely from the BBC than that, they are extremely reluctant to open the box on this one and when they do they are not going to  pay the slightest attention to the findings.

As noted previously the BBC is making a lot of room on the airwaves to push the Muslim side of things…but the BBC’s approach is to deliver this in such a one sided format that it is nothing more than propaganda…..this may well be in the same vein:

Freedom of Expression and the Ban on the Burqa in France

I haven’t listened to it but let me think….the narrative is that the ban on the Burkha is just one of many instances of Islamophobia and racism that French Muslims have to  put up with and hence we must expect a few murders in response to this outrageous restriction on their religious freedom.

Let me know if I’m on the money if you dare to listen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

#JeSuisAhmed?

 

 

#JeSuisAhmed was a hashtag started by Islamist Dyab Abou Jahja  and taken up by Muslim activists such as Mehdi Hasan and Myriam Francois-Cerrah.  He initiated it with this tweet….

Just so we know…Dyab Abou Jahjah…Muslim activist and opponent of ‘integration’ who stated after 9/11:

“Most of us … felt that day something that can not be described as joy, or as happiness, but rather as that sweet revenge feeling. We all had – except that small minority- a “what goes around comes around’” attitude”

 

Naturally he now claims not to hold those views.  Looking at his tweet I might suggest he still does hold them.

The Tweet tells us that the death of the cartoonists is of no consequence, you may infer from it that the deaths were possibly justifiable in his eyes, and in those who retweet it.

 

 

Ironically what the Tweet does tell us is that those same Islamist activists who also complain of those ‘multiple levels of alienation that foster terror’ are wrong.

Ahmed, a Muslim and an Arab, was a police officer….so how did he avoid the rampant Islamophobia and racism rife in France?  He had a job, a good job at the heart of the establishment.  The killers also had jobs and were not apparently ‘disaffected’ by their lives in France…..what got them into radicalism?  Meeting the radical preachers who persuaded them that Muslims were being slaughtered and abused in Iraq by the West….never mind most Muslims were actually being killed by the self-same radicals.

So is that narrative of disenfranchised, disaffected, alienated Muslims the real cause of radicalisation? We know Panorama says it is not, this Tweet suggests it is not.  The facts suggest it is not.

After all there are may people from all communities who are in similar positions and yet who are the terrorists?  They are Muslim.

Why?  Not poverty, not alienation, not joblessness.

The problem is not foreign policy but puritanical Islam and the expoitation of young Muslim’s idealism and fellow feeling for other Muslims …both given divine sanction by the Koran which tells Muslims to fight in order to defend other Muslims ‘under attack’….supposedly oppressed by the West.

 

 

 

 

 

#JeSuisPegida

What is this plight to which Europe has been reduced?
The vast quivering mass of tormented, bewildered  human beings
Who wait in their cities and their homes
And scan the dark horizons for the approach of some new form of Tyranny or terror with the sullen silence of despair.
But for the Great Republic across the Atlantic Ocean saving
Europe from ruin and enslavement The Dark Ages would have Returned in their cruelty and squalor.

They may still return.

The salvation of the common people in Europe from war and servitude
Must be established on solid foundations,
And must be created by the readiness of
All men and women to die rather than to submit to tyranny.

Let Europe arise.

Churchill, paraphrased from a speech in 1946

 

 

The BBC’s Panorama produced a programme about Islam in Britain that totally destroyed the BBC’s carefully contrived narrative of the ideology that is intended to lull us into a sense of false security and persuade us that there are no issues with Islam, that the problems stem from a very small minority of extremists, criminals, madmen even, who pervert the great religion for their own ends.

Panorama was on last night, and I asked what is the likelihood of the truths revealed in that programme finding their way into the BBC’s everyday coverage.

Already we have the answer….not a chance in hell.

The Today programme (06:39) tried to enlighten us about the dark underbelly of the Pegida protests in Germany.

Ostensibly, note that sly little word ‘ostensibly’, the BBC said, Pegida is about extremist Islam.

That additional ‘ostensibly’  tells you everything you need to know about how the BBC’s report would approach this subject.  It was a subtle maligning of the intentions of Pegida…the classic ‘liberal’ smear tactic that suggests the real motive is racism.

Indeed the report went on in precisely that vein….the good folk in the Pegida marches are ignorant, they don’t understand the great joys and benefits that immigrants bring (so already off the subject of Islam)….it’s up to politicians to enlighten them!  LOL.

However we are told ‘They are not all neo-Nazis’….implying that most are. Proof of that? How about this instead…… ‘Not all Muslims are fanatical Koran thumpers but…..’  Not something you will hear from the good liberatti but they are happy to label anyone who does anything they don’t like as Nazis…quite extraordinary….are the four million marchers in France ‘neo-nazis’?

‘Amusingly’ the report ended from a place close to where a synagogue was destroyed on ‘Kristallnacht’  and we were told that ‘People (ie ignorant Pegida types) don’t learn from history’….what an irony eh?  Trying to take the image of the Kristallnacht just days after a Jewish shop was attacked and the free Press brutally murdered by extremist thugs and use it to suggest that people  who are protesting about extremism by the very people who committed those crimes are the same as the Nazis!

We’ve just had a programme laying out the extremist ideology that pervades much of the Muslim world, Panorama remember told us that this ideology is ‘mainstream’ in the UK now, and yet only hours later we’re being told that this is something to celebrate in our midst and we’re being lectured that we don’t learn from history.

I might humbly suggest that the people who don’t learn from history are those who bury their heads in the sand and ignore the very dark future that is rapidly approaching.

Remember this well….Labour MP and former minister Shahid Malik quoted this from Islamic scholars:

“It is necessary by sharia to abide by the laws of the country one lives in, regardless of the nature of the law, as long as the law doesn’t demand something that is against Islam….

“It is necessary upon a Muslim to listen to and obey the ruler, as long as one is not ordered to carry out a sin.” 

 

Of course that means a sin in the eyes of Allah as defined by the Koran and Sharia….in other words Sharia law, not British law, is the final arbiter of how a Muslim should live in the UK according to Malik….If British law demands you do something that is ‘unIslamic’ you should refuse to do it.

 

The Daily Mirror told us in 2006 that:

WE MUST NOT GIVE IN TO MUSLIM BLACKMAIL

As a result of demands such as these…..

Dr Syed Aziz Pasha, secretary-general of the Union of Muslim Organisations of the UK and Ireland, demanded the British institute Sharia Law in England and grant Muslims national Islamic holidays… “If you give us religious rights we will be in a better position to convince young people that they are being treated equally along with other citizens.” 

 

In other words more Islam is the answer to the extremists demand for more Islam….clever huh?

This was the MCB’s tactic when trying to impose an Islamic ethos into secular schools just a year later….something remarkably never mentioned by the BBC when it eventually got around to reporting the current attacks on our schools in the Trojan Horse plot…..the man at the centre of that plot being the same man who authored the MCB ‘guidance’ for schools in 2007.  Something that might have been of note perhaps.

 

As pointed out the BBC has already decided to ignore the ‘warnings from history’ and the warnings from its own revelatory report on the subject of just how mainstream ‘conservative’ Islam is in the UK.

It does everything it can to prevent ‘Europe arising’ to defend its values and beliefs, culture and society.  The BBC would rather you be crushed and oppressed by an extreme ideology than for you to ‘offend’ or ‘insult’ those who wish to impose it by reiterating your own beliefs and values.

Standing up for democracy, freedom of thought and expression, freedom to leave your religion, freedom to criticise an ideology…..all are apparently ‘insulting and offensive’ to certain people.

The BBC would rather have the ‘sullen silence of despair’ than for you to be allowed to voice your concerns.

 

David Goodhart said, on the BBC, and subsequently ignored….

It has become clear that to remain liberal the state may have to prescribe a clearer hierarchy of values.

The gulf between conservative Islam and secular liberal Britain is larger than with any comparable large group….for those of us who value an open, liberal society it is time to explain why it is superior to the alternatives.

Some claim that if people understood Islam more everything would be fine, they would be more tolerant, I think quite the contrary….the more they understand about it the more alien they would find it…authoritarian, collectivist, patriarchal, misogynist…..all sorts of things that Britain might have been 100 years ago but isn’t now.

 

 

Tolerating the intolerable is not a sensible attitude however ‘liberal’ you profess to be…sometimes you just have to stand up and say No!  A time when compromise must end.
