The Islamist Wind in Britain

July 11, 2013 By Enza Ferreri

sharia-law1-450x297.jpg


Over the last weekend there have been two more street attacks on soldiers in Britain, one of which was fatal.

On Saturday, the Yorkshire town of Barnsley in northern England honored soldiers with parades and celebrations for its Armed Forces Day. One of the soldiers, who had returned from the Falkland Islands just hours before, was brutally assaulted at around midnight when he was getting home. He was jumped from behind, knocked unconscious and then repeatedly stamped and kicked in the head and face, and left with a concussion, injuries and bruises.

He is a 28-year-old corporal who has served in Afghanistan and Iraq.

In the early hours of Sunday morning, 26-year-old newlywed ex-soldier David Ryding was attacked in the Warwickshire town of Rugby, in central England, suffering head injuries. He died in hospital almost 24 hours later. Three men have been arrested.

What is missing from these reports? Any information about the suspects, except their ages. The word “Muslim,” which, in view of the beheading of Drummer Lee Rigby by self-confessed jihadists, may spring to mind, is notably absent, and can only be found in the comments to the articles. Also noteworthy is that these incidents were only reported in local news.

...

Unsurprisingly, Islamist preachers like Anjem Choudary and Abu Zakariyya applaud his decision as a step towards the implementation of sharia law in the UK.

Choudary ventured a prediction: “y some accounts Britain could be a Muslim country by 2015.”

Not so fast. Hubris could be your downfall, Anjem. We may still have something to say on the matter.
 
How Melanie Phillips Became a Culture Warrior


July 15, 2013 By Mark Tapson

melanie-phillips-010.jpg


FrontPage Mag readers almost certainly are familiar with British journalist Melanie Phillips from her book Londonistan, which chronicled England’s multicultural slide into submission to Islam, or from her more recent book The World Turned Upside Down, about the West’s slide into secular mass derangement. But few readers may know about Phillips’ own journey from the political left to social conservatism. She takes us on that journey in the short autobiography she just released on her own publishing imprint, EMBooks, an ebook called Guardian Angel: My Story, My Britain.

This quick and compelling memoir of her personal and professional life “is the story of my culture war: the account of my battles with the hate-mongering left.” It spans her youth and her decades as a journalist, editor, prominent columnist, and author, reflecting the disturbing changes in British culture and society that she witnessed along the way. Those changes left two Britains in their wake: one “adhering to decency, rationality, and duty to others,” and the left, “characterized by hatred, rampant selfishness, and a terrifying repudiation of reason.”

In 1977 she joined the staff of the progressive Guardian, one of Britain’s most influential newspapers. The attitude there, as among progressives in general, Phillips acknowledges, was that “we were the embodiment of virtue itself… We were the left; therefore everyone who was not the left was the right. The right was evil; everyone not on the left was therefore evil… and everything not on the left was politically extreme.” The significance of this was that the left had hijacked the middle ground and substituted its own extreme values as the center of political and moral gravity.

Phillips herself was not driven by ideology, which meant that she found herself increasingly in confrontations with the Guardian’s left, “who had replaced truth with ideology, and whose weapon of choice against all dissent was vilification and demonization.”

Lets face it, most British men have become feminized pussies. I don't know if it's the food and water they consume or what. But they really have become cowering sissies. Look at that Piers Morgan dude. He needs to be booted back to his Nanny State. Wimps like him need a Nanny. They've become so soft over there. Great Britain is now a mere shell of its former self. It's pretty sad.
 
The Battle of the Burqa

October 4, 2013 By Enza Ferreri

cl-450x253.jpg


Britain is reaping the fruits of its multi-decennial multicultural policy. What is euphemistically called “tolerance” – and realistically “bending over backwards” – to Islam is showing its unwelcome effects.

If anyone doubts that Muhammadanism is a supremacist doctrine, this doubting Thomas should take a look at what’s happening in an English school currently in the news.

Britain’s first Muslim “free school” (that is, government-funded but outside local authority control), Al-Madinah School in the city of Derby, underwent a two-day (October 1-2) inspection by officials of the government’s education regulator Ofsted. The school has been shut during and after the inspection by its Principal allegedly “owing to a health and safety issue.”

This is how Al-Madinah describes itself:

A strong Muslim ethos will give the school its uniqueness… At the center of our school is a community of pupils, able to enjoy learning in a caring Islamic environment.

...

The chief executive of the Ramadhan Foundation Mohammed Shafiq responded that he was “disgusted” by Browne’s comments.

What disgusted him? The proposed, very mild exception to the kid-glove treatment that Muslims receive over here or the slight indication that Christians should not be massacred over there?

Brits are gay. Seriously, literally. Their Socialist wankers have been very successful in feminizing their male population. The days of the tough British Male seem to have passed for good. Now they're all soft 'Metrosexuals.' They have now officially become a weak insignificant Island Nation. They're rotting from within. Great Britain's glory days are gone forever.
 
UK Atheists Realize Islam is the Only Religion They Can’t Criticize


September 5, 2013 By Daniel Greenfield

StephenFry-741836.jpg


In the UK, Richard Dawkins learned what Bill Maher learned in the US, that liberals love it when you make jokes about Judaism and Christianity, they’ll even sit politely for some cracks about Buddhism, but if you question Islam, then you’re a bigot.

Then Stephen Fry stepped in to defend Dawkins with a since-deleted tweet which said, “Oh, have a look around the world and see them slaughtering each other, let alone others. So charming to women too …”

The outcome was predictable. Fry, who if you don’t know who he is, you can think of as the UK’s version of Bill Maher, though that comparison is completely inaccurate on so many levels, responded with a clumsy Tumblr post which praised the imaginary Islamic golden age, but claimed the right to be able to criticize all religions without being dubbed a HATEFUL ISLAMOPHOBE.

...
...
...

Despite the whole militant atheism bit, Fry feels the need to praise an imaginary Muslim golden age and then to insist that the vast majority of Muslims are perfectly fine. It’s just a tiny minority of extremists.

Inquisition accomplished.

Spencer and Geller Banned from Britain for Supporting Israel

December 4, 2013 by Robert Spencer

ty1.jpg


New revelations about why I was banned from entering Great Britain reveal how deeply compromised the British government is to hard-Leftists and Islamic supremacists – including the most virulent haters of Israel.

As faithful FrontPage readers may recall, last June I was banned from Britain because, as a letter from the U.K. Home Office told me, “your presence here is not conducive to the public good.” Why not? Because I said (quite factually) that Islam “is a religion and is a belief system that mandates warfare against unbelievers for the purpose for establishing a societal model that is absolutely incompatible with Western society.” And also because, the letter said, “you are the founder of the blog Jihad Watch (a site widely criticized for being Islamophobic),” and “you co-founded the Freedom Defense Initiative and Stop Islamization of America, both of which have been described as anti-Muslim hate groups.”

...

Whether or not I ever get into Britain again, the Conservative collapse revealed in the Home Office documents relating to my ban reveal a ruling party, and a society, that is profoundly confused, deeply compromised, and facing far greater crises to come.

It's worse in Norway. Oslo is gone.

Oslo police: “We have lost the city”

A devastating CBN report shows that Oslo is already firmly in control of Muslim invaders. In many parts of the city the Sharia already applies as the only law. That’s where the local Imams reign. Recent police statistics reveal that 100% of all rapes in Oslo are committed by non-Western immigrants and 90% of the victims are Norwegian women, victims that are even declared to offenders – more precisely “racists”- by left-wing scum bags.
(by L.S.Gabriel)

You do not see many straw-blond women in Oslo these days. Many Norwegians dye their hair dark to not be immediately recognised as a blonde woman. A weak protection against the Muslim rapist gangs, but at least it gives them a little security -somehow-, since police can hardly protect them. In contrary, the victim of a rape had been told by the police that everyone has the right to security. Unfortunately police can no longer guarantee. “We have lost the city,” they said.
Tetouani Fatima, who is an immigrant herself, says that parts of Oslo were already more Islamic than Morocco.
The therapist Kristin Spitznogle was sharply criticized because she uttered what can clearly be seen and proven by statistics: Muslim men are raping non-Muslim women. Any woman, not dressed compliant to the Quran and not circumcised (physically mutilated as they do to all their females), is a whore to Muslims and may be raped. [They never go by a nations laws that they infiltrate - they use Sharia law everywhere they go and force others under it as well and they take over a nation city by city ! Thus thy can do as they like and never get arrested under the nation's laws they are in, since they only live by their own law, so the nation cannot arrest them for breaking their laws.They murder freely and openly and never worry about being arrested for it. They just claim freedom of "religion" ! They set up their own country, govt, courts, laws, etc inside of any country they infiltrate ! A country within a country yet they claim the same borders as the nation does, declaring the entire nation as their own - that is how they have always operated ! How nations can be so stupid and suicidal as to allow any of them into their country is just insanity and asking for blood shed and a coup on their country.]
Walid al-Kubaisi, a Norwegian journalist, is a native Iraqi and Muslim. He sees the problem and is sure that there will be a violent clash of cultures. “No-one spells out that we have a huge problem and bleak future prospects,” he says. [Norway is basically gone, it's now a Muslim nation, which makes more then half the world under Sharia law now. But this is what happens when you allow Muslims into your borders - this is what they have done for centuries, yet no one seems to ever learn , except Japan, who does not allow Muslims into their country - the only wise ones on the planet !]
Only a few months ago, terrorist group Ansar al-Sunna has threatened with terrorist attacks in an open letter and explains:
“We do not want to be part of the Norwegian society. We do not want to live with filthy creatures like you. “
They call for an Islamic state where the Sharia is law, although less than 10% of the Norwegian population are Muslims. How will things be when they reach 20 percent or more?

British Men need to grow a pair. They've become feminized little wankers. Britain's Socialists/Communists are responsible for that. They've turned a once mighty Great Britain into a small insignificant little island nation. Without America's backing, the Brits would be nowhere. They just don't have the means or the backbone to survive on their own. They need a real Leader. They desperately need another Margaret Thatcher.

Britain is the largest investor in the US.

CBI: UK remains largest foreign investor in US

UK remains largest foreign investor in US

Great Britain has substantially larger investments than its international competitors, with more than a million high-paying jobs created by British businesses throughout the country, spread across each US state.

In 2011, trade between the UK and US was valued at over $207 billion – more than twice as much as the UK’s second largest commercial partner.
 
Here are the dominos to fall:
(1) France:
Legal Muslims make up 10% and number in the millions. Add the illegal Muslims and that is another 1-3%. The Muslims are destroying and over-utilizing the welfare system without contributing to it. They are bankrupting the state, which has allowed marxists to take over the government. These marxists have taxed and spent the people into misery. This burden has caused native Frenchmen to not have any babies and most of the producers are fleeing for other countries. HOWEVER, the welfare system is still beneficial to the lower class poor Muslim population. They continue to reproduce in high numbers (the welfare state rewards them for having more children they can't afford). Depending on who you talk to, by 2025, that 10% WILL grow into 20%+ and they will represent more than 50% of new births (which is the critical number, since when the old die off the new birth will increase the percent 1000 fold).

(2) Russia:
Mother Russia already has a 25% Muslim population and they have a lowest reproduction rate in the world. They actually have a shrinking population. However, the muslim immigration rate from all the SHIT muslim countries is very high and they reproduce like rabbits. It's nearly a foregone conclusion that Muslims will out number the Native Russians before 2050. Heck they could be #1; however, unlike the French the Russian have a fighting spirit and are attempting to fight back. When push comes to shove and their is a clash of culture, the Native Russians might come out on top!

(3) Netherlands:
They are 8-10% Islamic. The keep taking in more and more Muslims ungrateful immigrants each year. Same thing with France, they over-utilize the welfare state and put the pressure on the natives to make up for it. The natives aren't haven't babies, but the Muslims are reproducing like rabbits.

(4) Belgium and Denmark:
See the Netherlands

(5) Sweden and Norway:
Clueless liberals sister states. Basically they are allowing so called "refugees" in with little to no questions asked and they are coming. Somalia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Syria etc are all coming and not leaving. In fact, they are flooding in. Both are rapidly getting to the 10% range. To top it off, like all other European countries, the Natives are NOT reproducing, but the Muslims reproduce like rabbits and are destroying the welfare state.

It might take decades to happen, but I believe every one of these states will fall within our children's lifetime and the top two without our lifetime.

It's scary, but eventually we will fight back and win as we did against the NAZIs!!!

Dear Patriots (bcc herein w/permission to forward),
NO need in attempting to be ‘cute’ in trying to make a point when these conditions, as noted herein, are just part of a larger nexus cloaking an Ideology associated with the Progressive-Marxist ‘mind-set’ intent on destroying OUR Constitutional Republic.

The conditions seen herein will soon, if not already, be visiting themselves at a City Near YOU here in AmeriKa.

You can continue to bury your heads in the sand & dismiss the encroaching Political Police State that will seal the Republic’s fate or, decidedly, realize the time has come to

Get Involved.

Washington is nothing more than an Amphitheater of Political Corruption advancing their Ideology via an Alteration Methodology via Legislation they have been employing for decades.

That Methodology has now encircled us all and is bearing down on one and all alike like a Legislative Shroud, cutting off or eliminating MOST of our Liberties & Freedoms under the pretense of their continuing ‘Acts of Protectionism’ or ‘Humanitarianism’ allowing them wide latitude in the procurement of said Alteration through an age old tactic associated with the ‘Smoke & Mirrors Technique’.

Again, you can acknowledge the obvious that can NO longer be dismissed or, continue to lament in a Sea of Denial that will ultimately swallow you up by the Political Tsunami

Those People in Washington have CLEARLY created.

It is NOT coming- IT IS HERE!

There isn’t ANYTHING that either Party says or does that can be TRUSTED or BELIEVED any longer.

Each and every time either one of them ‘Cough’, the Country comes down with a VIRUS!

Thanks to Carrie T. for forwarding us these materials.

We Must Separate.

Constitutionalists cannot Co-Exist under the same Political Roof with Marxists (Progressives) and expect anything positive to come it.

WE Confederates have understood that Only TOO Well and Better than Most.

The UK Confronts Islamism

December 10, 2013 by Daniel Greenfield

kl-450x272.jpg


A century ago the murder of a British soldier in broad daylight in London would have been an act of war. In this post-imperial and post-everything age, an atrocity leads to a task force which produces a report which is then filed in a desk drawer by the undersecretary for something or other.

Like clockwork, the murder of Lee Rigby led to a task force and to a report. The report is 7 pages long. It’s possible to read it in much less than the twenty minutes that it took London police to respond to the murder in progress. You could even get through it a few times in real time while a Muslim convert who describes himself as a soldier of Allah saws away at a fallen Englishman’s head with no one to stop him.

There is a thing that organizations say when they know that they are hip deep in a crisis. They say that “we are taking this seriously.”

The report, “Tackling Extremism in the UK” certainly takes matters seriously. The evidence of that is not so much in the report, as in the task force which included the Prime Minister, the Deputy Prime Minister, four Secretaries of State, three Ministers, one Chancellor, one Lord Chancellor and a partridge in a pear tree.

Like so many of the more “serious” and “sincere” efforts at tackling the biggest threat to civilization in the twenty-first century, the report mixes occasional good ideas with politically correct absurdities. It starts off by equating Islamophobia with Al Qaeda and rolls out a plan to fight back against Islamism.

India's secret history: 'A holocaust, one where millions disappeared...' | World news | The Guardian

Conventional histories have counted only 100,000 Indian soldiers who were slaughtered in savage reprisals, but none have tallied the number of rebels and civilians killed by British forces desperate to impose order, claims Misra.

The author says he was surprised to find that the "balance book of history" could not say how many Indians were killed in the aftermath of 1857. This is remarkable, he says, given that in an age of empires, nothing less than the fate of the world hung in the balance.

"It was a holocaust, one where millions disappeared. It was a necessary holocaust in the British view because they thought the only way to win was to destroy entire populations in towns and villages. It was simple and brutal. Indians who stood in their way were killed. But its scale has been kept a secret," Misra told the Guardian.

In its "Glory Days", it used to hang 11 year old girls;

Mary Wade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mary was born on 5 October 1777 at Southwark, London to Mary English and George Wade of Westminster, Middlesex and then christened on 21 December 1777 at Saint Olave, Southwark, Surrey, England.
She spent her days sweeping the streets of London as a means of begging. On 5 October 1788, Mary with another child, Jane Whiting, 14 years old, stole the clothes (one cotton frock, one linen tippet, one linen cap) from Mary Phillips, an 8 year old, who at the time was collecting water in a bottle at a privy.
They then sold the frock to a pawnbroker. Mary was reported by another child to an Officer of the Law who later found the tippet in Mary's room whereupon she was arrested and placed in Bridewell Prison.
Her trial was held on 14 January 1789 at the Old Bailey, where she was found guilty and was sentenced to death by hanging.[1]

On 11 March 1789, King George III was proclaimed cured of an unnamed madness; it is assumed that he suffered from porphyria, a degenerative mental disease.
Five days later, in the spirit of celebration, all the women on death row, including Mary Wade, had their sentences commuted to penal transportation to Australia.
She spent 93 days in the Newgate Prison before being transported on the Lady Juliana to Australia, which was the first convict ship to hold a cargo made up entirely of women and children. After an 11-month voyage across the ocean, the ship arrived at Sydney on 3 June 1790 and Wade was sent on to Norfolk Island aboard the Surprise, arriving on 7 August 1790.

In its "Glory Days" it used to flog convicts in Australia etc to death;

Cat o' nine tails - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Flogging round the fleet[edit] "The severest form of flogging was a flogging round the fleet.
The number of lashes was divided by the number of ships in port and the offender was rowed between ships for each ship's company to witness the punishment."[4] Penalties of hundreds of lashes were imposed for the gravest offences, including sedition and mutiny. The prisoner was rowed 'round the fleet in an open boat and received a number of his lashes at each ship in turn, for as long as the surgeon allowed.
Sentences often took months or years to complete, depending on how much a man was expected to bear at a time.
Normally 250–500 lashes was when a man taking this punishment would kill him, as infections would spread."[5] After the flogging was completed, the sailor's lacerated back was frequently rinsed with brine or seawater, which served as a crude antiseptic. Although the purpose was to control infection, it caused the sailor to endure additional pain, and gave rise to the expression, "rubbing salt into his wounds," which came to mean vindictively or gratuitously increasing a punishment or injury already imposed.

Thatcher was far from perfect.
We now live in different and more enlightened times.

Margaret Thatcher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thatcher was criticised for the neglect of the Falklands' defence that led to the war,



Margaret Thatcher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Thatcher reformed local government taxes by replacing domestic rates—a tax based on the nominal rental value of a home—with the Community Charge (or poll tax) in which the same amount was charged to each adult resident.[101]
The new tax was introduced in Scotland in 1989 and in England and Wales the following year,[102] and proved to be among the most unpopular policies of her premiership.[101] Public disquiet culminated in a 70,000 to 200,000-strong [103] demonstration in London on 31 March 1990; the demonstration around Trafalgar Square deteriorated into the Poll Tax Riots, leaving 113 people injured and 340 under arrest.[104]
The Community Charge was abolished by her successor, John Major.[104]
