The march has been held after another one was suspended because of being “racist” and even if its leader is hate preacher Anjem Choudary:

Choudary is the same that stated that Islam is not “the religion of peace but of submission to Allah” and who has demanded publicy the execution of Pope Benedict XVIth for insulting Islam. And:

He is no longer a practising solicitor and has left his wife and children to concentrate on his extreme brand of Islam. It was Choudary who organised the Danish Embassy protests over the cartoons of the prophet Mohammed earlier this year, at which demonstrators dressed as suicide bombers and banners proclaimed: ‘Behead Those Who Insult Islam’.

He lauded the September 11 hijackers as ‘magnificent martyrs’ and praised Asif Hanif, the British suicide bomber who killed three in Tel Aviv in 2003.

After the July 7 atrocities in London, he vowed he would not tell the police if he knew a terror attack was being planned and urged Muslims to defend themselves against perceived attacks by ‘whatever means they have at their disposal’.

(…)Despite his hatred of all things British – he says: “If British means adopting British values, then I don’t think we can adopt British values. I’m a Muslim living in Britain. I have a British passport, but that’s a travel document to me” – he and his family live on state benefits.

Rubana is said by friends to claim £1,700 a month in housing benefit and income support while Choudary has also claimed £202 a month in income support.

Yesterday, Choudary declined to talk about his past dissolute life, dismissing it as ‘irrelevant’. He said: “I was born a Muslim and I have done my best to be a good Muslim all my life.”

Recently he also has called for people who get drunk to get flogged 40 times. And has labelled Christmas as “the pathway to hellfire”.

Anyway, I am truly surprised someone who has that past is pointing at others about prostitution. Specially after seeing these photos from Islamic tradition:

20 people orgy – India – unknown time.

The Voyeur – early XXth century – Teheran – Islamic Republic of Iran.

Women, sex and wine Teherán – Persia (La República Islámica del Irán).

Continuing with Choudary, he is a part of a greater net, joint under the influence of Omar Bakri and the Al-Mujahiroun, which include the “Islamic Thinkers Society”. They, of course, promote judeophobia, as we can see by these images:

The “Islamic Thinkers Society” is the US bracnh of the Al-Muhajiroun, an association created by Oman Bakri Mohammed.

In its demonstrations, this “pictured Jew” is a normal motive:

What would have happened if a Jew writes something like that about a Muslim?

But that’s not the only “interesting” thing about this. The picture is taken from this Aryan Nation’s cartoon:

For example, one of the last news on Islam for the UK (that is, Choudary’s web), tells us that “a brother has been arrested” after he hung a posted in his window adding that “it’s clear that the freedom of expression can’t be used by Muslims”. The posted is this one:

Of course, stating support for the killing of non-Muslims or encouraging people to do so is not “racial hatred”. But not letting someone put that poster in the window of a pro-Israeli firm and arresting him (well, there is NO link there, at least I didn’t see anyone), that’s an enormour example of “racial hatred”.

Victimization, that’s the real word to define these absolute idiots. They want to impose on others their own ideas (Lord, there are people who worship another religions!! That’s so hard on me…. when they should adore my prophet and give me more money, this time to buy a car to carry on with Jihadist obligations in a much better and comfortable way!!!), they consider just and marvellous to menace and to kill others just because they don’t agree with them and, finally, they also want to introduce their own law code based on what they personally believe instead of the Law, equal to all humans livign under the Government. But if you criticise them , that’s “racial hatred”.

Oh, please, why don’t they change their job and begin to write comical pieces? It would better for all!! :lol:

NOTE: Just in case someone gets a little bit lost. I’m not for fucking Islam or something, I’m for a logical and rational defense against the foolishness of these self-called “Islamic scholars”, who are nothing more than censors who want to be powerful and tell everybody what to do. And I am not for porn images in any of my blogs, but I’m fed up of idiots who want to give moral lessons when they certainly can’t…

The Home Secretary came under fire last night for allowing a radical Lebanese propagandist with links to the extremist group Hezbollah to enter Britain for a national speaking tour.

The Conservatives urged Jacqui Smith to ban Ibrahim Moussawi from the UK, warning that he was “likely to foment extremism or promote violence”.

Mr Moussawi edits Hezbollah’s newspaper and is former political editor of the Iranian-backed group’s television station, which is banned in many countries including France, Spain and the U.S. where its output is seen as anti-Semitic.

He was recently barred from entering Ireland, where he was due to speak at anti-war meetings.

He is scheduled to appear at an event in London tonight organised by the Stop the War Coalition, with more events planned around the country over the coming week.

via Atlas Shrugs: BRITAIN BANS WILDERS BUT WELCOMES ISLAMIC EXTREMIST.

Melanie Phillips writes at The Spectator:

the Communities Secretary Hazel Blears delivered a major speech on the subject which, far from presaging a change in strategy, was a defence of the status quo. (…She) explained that the problem was not just al Qaeda but also people who did not support violence but the ‘political Islamisms’ whose extremist ideas helped promote that violence. So what was she going to do about them – the ‘political Islamists’ — was what we now needed to know.

But she didn’t tell us. Instead, she retreated to the old comfort zone of the ‘moderate majority’ and the need to engage with and encourage the mainstream Muslim community so that violence would not take further root there.

(Afterwards) she appeared to be saying that the mainstream Muslim communities with whom the government was having all this dialogue actually had ‘extremist’ views. So while earlier she had been talking about the importance of engaging with moderates, now she seemed to be talking about the importance of engaging with extremists. And as she said, I do indeed think that such ‘engagement’ is ‘endorsement’;  more importantly, truly moderate Muslims think so too and have repeatedly begged the government not to engage with extremists in the community because it emboldens them and undermines true moderates .

Yet with groups which display

an equivocal attitude on core values such as democracy, freedom of speech or respect towards women,

there would be ‘ limited engagement’. Did that include the Muslim Brothers, or Hizb ut Tahrir, or other groups who want to Islamise Britain? Because ‘engagement’ with such people is the current strategy, and the result is that radicalisation of Britain’s Muslims is going through the roof while the government is seen to cave into the threat of violence and dance to their tune. Witness, for example, the banning of the Dutch anti-Islamist politician Geert Wilders, who threatens no-one, while according to the Centre for Social Cohesion the Hezbollah spokesman Dr Ibrahim el-Moussaoui is to be allowed into the country to teach a course on political Islam at the School of Oriental and African studies – a course apparently aimed at educating Government officials and the police.

So this guy, actually an extremer who has been chief political editor of a terrorist group’s TV is going to give a course to educate Government officials and the police. :roll: :^)

Why is that, Mr Corbett? Is a Hizbullah propagandist more dangerous than Mr. Wilders? :roll:

The Law Lords have ruled that radical cleric Abu Qatada can be deported from the UK to Jordan where he faces jail for terrorism.

Abu Qatada, 48, one of Europe’s most influential extremists, had alleged that his conviction in Jordan was based on evidence extracted by torture.

The home secretary said she was “delighted” at the decision, calling him “a truly dangerous individual”.

Abu Qatada’s lawyer said she had lodged an application to appeal.

Gareth Peirce has submitted an application to the European Court of Human Rights. Her client cannot be deported until the appeal bid has been considered.

The five Law Lords who unanimously backed Abu Qatada’s removal also supported the deportation of two Algerian terrorism suspects, known as RB and U, whose cases covered similar grounds.

via BBC NEWS | UK | Law Lords back Qatada deportation.

Even if I don’t like torture, I consider that someone who has been fighting democracy and rejecting Human Rights, does not have right to demand them. Specially because after he was freed by UK Government, he  has continued speaking against Great Britain.

The chancellor has given Muslim leaders private assurances that he wants to create a “level playing field” in the economy, so that more and more “sharia compliant” financial products can be offered to British Muslims.

To comply with sharia law, financial products must not charge or earn interest, which is regarded as usury.

Brown hopes his proposed changes would remove barriers to many British and foreign Muslims participating fully in the financial system. They would help make London the natural home for Islamic funds from around the world, and increase the inflow of investment from oil-rich Middle Eastern countries.

“Making the UK and London a centre for Islamic finance means putting in place the tax and legislative framework that is supportive of Islamic products,” said a senior Treasury official.

“On top of this, we’re also looking at promoting the City abroad as a centre for Islamic finance.”

via Brown to boost Islamic banking – Times Online. This article dates back to March, 2006, but it’s importance has not diminished. Because in the present situation of global economic crisis Western countries are having similar ideas: for exmple the US:

The Risk of Shariah Finance: While Americans are selling their positions in U.S. companies, Middle Easterners flush with petrodollars are aggressively gobbling up these stocks at fire sale prices. Moreover, as American financial institutions report the losses that forced them to deplete their cash reserves, CEOs are begging for loans from oil-rich Middle East nations that have benefited from the rise in oil prices in recent years from $30 to nearly $100 per barrel. As one former Wall Street executive lamented, U.S. business leaders are “lining up to kiss the ring.”. (…) How might this harm America? If any of these investors, or a bloc of investors, gains enough controlling shares of a company, they can exact a dangerous influence. This might include the insistence that a corporation’s activities are halal, which would mean jettisoning business interests that include: banks charging interest; firms that are either based in Israel or are working with the Jewish state; firms developing weaponry used in Iraq, Israel, Afghanistan or other Middle Eastern states; casinos and other gambling companies; businesses that involve pork products; alcohol distillers and bottlers; publishers that release books critical of Islam; and even entertainment companies that could offend Muslim sensibilities or appear incompatible with Muslim values.

Melanie Phillips h/t Shariah Finance Blog was very clear as to the extent of the dangers: [Western leaders] don’t understand that the spread of sharia banking in Britain and America is a significant part of the attempt to Islamise Britain and America. Acceptance of sharia finance furthers the Islamist objective of gradually legitimising Islamic sharia law more generally in the west. (…) The most important point to grasp is that Islam recognises no authority superior to sharia. Sharia banks will therefore not recognise the superior authority of the law of the land. When trillions of pounds and dollars are locked into them, who will argue with them?

    The right-wing Dutch politician banned from visiting the UK over his anti-Islam views has been refused entry after arriving at Heathrow airport this afternoon.

    Geert Wilders was presented with a letter that refused him entry to Britain after arriving at immigration.

    After leaving the aircraft, Mr Wilders was taken into a side room to be interviewed, witnesses said.

    via Dutch MP banned from Britain over anti-Islam film is refused entry after arriving at Heathrow | Mail Online. via The Jawa Report.

    Welcome to Britanistan… What a bunch of cowards.

    I remind you of the poll that I have here in this website about your opinions on this subject.

    Also Lord Ahmed, the one who first spoke against Fitna being viewed in British Parliament and later menaced with bringing 10.000 Muslims to prevent Wilders to enter the Parliament, has signed a letter with other extremist Muslims:

    Lord Nazir Ahmed of Rotherham has joined forces with leading UK-based Islamists, including Mohammed Ali Harrath, convicted in absentia by a Tunisian court of terrorism-related offences, and Mohammed Sawalha, described in a US court as a former “Hamas leader in the West Bank”, says the Centre for Social Cohesion.

    Hmm… and this one criticizes Wilders for being an “extremist who insults his religion”… Is this a joke?

    Sadly, it isn’t… :( As Rob posted some days ago, this is not the first intelectual critical of Islam who is prevented to attend something to “prevent unrest” in the UK:

    This would be in itself an absolutely unbelievable story. Yet, since I couldn’t say that I’ve never seen anything like this in our old, decadent Europe, I must admit that this is practically the rule, not the exception. Take the case, for example, of commentator and author Douglas Murray, who was due to chair “Islam or Liberalism: Which is the Way Forward?” at the London School of Economics on January 23, but the LSE asked him not to attend in the interest of “public safety” as his presence could provoke unrest … How sad!

    The only difference I can see is that Wilders is an MP elected in other EU state, so this measure is even more striking… And I would say, that it has been deliberately taken to humiliate him.

    (By the way, where is Mr. Cameron? Has he said something about this?).

    Geert Wilders has a new website in English, where he has already posted about these news:

    Wilders has denouced the British Government as “the biggest bunch of cowards in Europe. They are more Chamberlain than Churchill.I was invited by another politician (Lord Pearson of Rannoch). I am a democrat, I am serving freedom of speech. They are not only being nasty to me they are being nasty to freedom of speech.”

    They have also a link so you can help Geert Wilders’ party, which is under pressure after Wilders has been accused of insulting Muslims because of Fitna.

    Mark Steyn points out another example of a man who was jet into the UK:

    You cannot accept the rule of the kaffir. We have to rule ourselves and we have to rule the others… King, Queen, House of Commons: if you accept it, you are a part of it. If you don’t accept it, you have to dismantle it. So you being a Muslim, you have to fix a target. From that White House to this Black House, we know we have to dismantle it. Muslims must grow in strength, then take over… You are in a situation in which you have to live like a state-within-a-state – until you take over.

    Bivouac has this video:

    David Miliband: “I haven’t seen the film”. So how can it say that it stirs “racial and religious hatred”? This man is soooooo idiot…..

    Instapundit points out: If his supporters were more violent, this wouldn’t have happened.

    IHT: Britain refuses entry to Dutch lawmaker.

    Telegraph: Dutch MP Geert Wilders deported after flying to Britain to show anti-Islamic film.

    Times on Line: Anti-Islamist politician Geert Wilders refused entry to Britain.

    Center for Security Policy: An Open Letter to the Government of the UK:

    The International Free Press Society believes this court-ordered prosecution against Geert Wilders, a central figure in the fight against the Islamization of the West, amounts to a dangerous concession to the strictures of Islamic law, which prohibits all criticism of Islam, over Western traditions of, and rights to robust and unfettered debate. As such, it is tantamount to a surrender to totalitarian influences that undermine all Western freedoms. And as such, it must be resisted.

    The same can be applied to this shameful deportation of Wilders from the UK.

    Smooth Stone:

    Of course, according to the British cowards who came up with this decision, there are no Islamic jihadists in the UK who are trying to stir up religious hatred. Oh no, only Wilders is doing that.

    Irony, that’s the best thing to combat these fools… :P

    Diane West:

    The UK ban-on-Wilders debacle has morphed into diplomatic “row” coverage of the ministerial back-and-forth between the Netherlands and the UK. Thankfully, the Netherlands government is strongly backing Wilders. (And, in order to think positive, I won’t even add “so far.”) On the side of the British angels (there still seem to be some) still upholding their invitation to Wilders, we have Lord Pearson and Baronness Cox, both Independence Party peers in the House of Lords. But look who’s vocally supporting the British government ban? Dear old Lord Ahmed–the same Lord Ahmed, who, as the London Sun reports today, recently invited an al-Qaeda-linked former detainee into Parliament.

    You can see FITNA here (I can’t embed the video in this blog). Attention: the video contains hard images such as beheadings.

    Each fortnight I will be posting a poll on a very important subject. I am interested in knowing what the results are. And I believe all of you are going to be interested too.

    This fortnight’s poll will be on Geert Wilders’ declaration of persona non grata in the UK:

    [polldaddy poll="1359477"]

    I will add a link in the right sidebar for you to vote on it. Thanks.

    Last news on the subject are that he is still travelling to UK tomorrow (with some people thinking he won’t be jailed but that he will be denied entry) and that there are Dutch MPs who have supported his banning:

    The film has nothing to do with freedom of expression. This freedom does not give the right to offend,” Maria Martens said.

    OK, you’re offending me, Maria Martens, with this kind of nonsense (and I guess I am not the only one…). Set up the punishment for the offense.

    “This is madness! Complete and utter insanity. According to Elsevier and Geenstijl (both NL) Geert Wilders has been denied access to the United Kingdom, for fear that his presence may threaten civil disorder and ‘civil harmony’. Wilders was on his way to attend the screening of Fitna in the House of Lords, after the first attempted was thwarted by ‘lord’ Ahmed threatening with a 10,000 strong crowd of islamites in the streets.”
    ‘Great Britain is sacrificing freedom of speech,’ said Wilders. ‘You would expect something like this to happen in countries like Saudi Arabia but not in Great Britain. This cowardly act by the British government is a disgrace.

    via Klein Verzet: Breaking: Wilders not allowed into the UK.

    Hmm… what does he expect in country where the police must run for their lifes when “peaceful” protesters shout “run kuffars, run cowards”??

    If you want to know more about Geert Wilders’ process, take a look to Defend Geert Wilders. They are focused on his process. The last of their posts quotes him saying:

    If convicted, Wilders faces a maximum sentence of two years in prison. Said the defendant: “I lost my freedom already four and a half years ago in October 2004, when my 24-hour police protection started because of threats by Muslims in Holland and abroad to kill me.”

    I have heard from Muslims in this country that jihadists around the world have more than insulted traditional Muslim law by their fierce punishments of both non-Muslims and Muslims who have acted in speech or writing against jihadists’ reinterpretations of the Quran. Some of these protesters, exercising freedom of conscience, have been killed for their “blasphemy.”

    Hmm, what BAD perspectives we have going down THIS terrible path of fear and absolute idiocy… :evil:

    UPDATE: From IBA:

    This afternoon Mr. Wilders received a letter from the British ambassador to the Netherlands saying that he is a “persona non grata” in the United Kingdom. The ambassador told Mr. Wilders that he is a threat to public security and public harmony because of the controversy created by Fitna (My note: actually the letter is much worse, because it says: “The Secretary of State is of the view that your presence in the UK would pose a genuine, present and sufficiently serious threat to one of the fundamental interests of society. The Secretary of State is satisfied that your statements about Muslims and their beliefs, as expressed in your film Fitna and elsewhere, would threaten community harmony and therefore public security in the UK“). Mr. Wilders intends to go to London anyway.”Let them arrest me in Heathrow,” he says.

    UPDATE 2: Read this post from Angel:



    Do we understand? This has NOTHING TO DO WITH HARMONY!! This has to do with FEAR to the most violent elements inside the Muslim community :angry:

    Three members of a suspected terror cell with links to al-Qaeda are on the run in the Midlands.

    The alleged jihadists, who all have joint Libyan/British citizenship, have been placed on Interpol’s Most Wanted list over claims they funded terror plots for Osama Bin Laden.

    The international police force has made the men subject to a Red Notice – the highest level of arrest warrant – and have traced them to areas in and around Birmingham.

    The curious thing of this “new” movement is precisely that it is not only aimed at people coming from countries outside Europe but also from other parts of Europe.

    Sometimes it is just ridiculous. Italian city Lucca has ordered that all restaurants should have an Italian decoration, waiters should wear elegant clothes and speak English and (the important thing) they should serve Italian food. While the first requirements weren’t very much disputed, the latter has caused a lot of criticism. The opposition has even considered this as “meal racism”, or “racism considering that the restaurants that are going to be closed serve non-Italian meals”. Of course, the mere consideration from a etimological point of view of “meals/cooking’s racism” is just a total absurd. But the real thing is that the opposition is worried mainly about the Turkish döner kebabs but not about French, Spanish or Hindu restaurants, which normally tend to be owned by Italians, or about McDonalds or Burger King’s which are also included in the measure

    Meanwhile, in Great Britain the situation is not as “ridiculous” but rather is much more worrying. Expat Yank points out the real problem:

    Absolutely disgraceful reporting on the part of the Beeb. For as of that 11:10 report, nowhere in that piece is it made clear that those “overseas” and “foreign” workers are Italian EU nationals. Nor was it mentioned in yesterday’s initial piece. Nor is it gently pointed out that the protesting British workers themselves clearly don’t understand that those Italians have as much right to those jobs as do Britons.

    What happens? A part of an oil refinery was being constructed, work which was won by IREM, an Italian-based contractor, which brought in its own workforce. So the workers from the Oil Refinery, even if no redundacy was going to be caused by those Italians, went on an unofficial strike. They can’t understand that, under European Union regulations, European citizens, can move throughout the territory of the EU, without restraint, to work.

    But the worrying thing is that the BBC, paid by the British taxpayer and under the Government’s supervision, precisely attacks this idea of free movement. The double standard is so worrying that, after the BBC has been reporting in a “italians-are-stealing-British-jobs” mode, Gordon Brown can afterwards say this:

    Brown Warns Global Economy Is Slipping into Financial Protectionism

    to afterwards saying:

    what we’ve got to do over time, as I’ve always said, is that where there are jobs in this country, we need people with the skills, developed in this country”…

    In Spain, we have a similar problem. Spanish Industry Minister, Miguel Sebastian, said that we should buy “Spanish products”, to help Spanish producers. So a journalist asked Zapatero if he supported that. As he was in a press conference with Portuguese Primer Minister, our cosmic leader from the Alliance of Civlizations President answered “I chose the ibéricos“, referring to both Spanish and Portuguese products, but not taking into account that in Spain that expression refers to this.

    But the problem is aggravated by the influence of the Autonomous Communities. After financing an association which sends letters to firms menacing them with fines in case they don’t write commercial signs in Galician, and after Galician President, Touriño, has spent huge quantities of money in highly luxurious items (nearly €4 million in the reform of three meeting rooms, €26.284 in a table; €2.269 for each chair he bought; €170.212 in the windows of another room and €480.000 in an official car), his Vicepresident, Galician independentist Anxo Quitana, has asked the people to buy Galician products. Why don’t you lower the taxes to help those “producers”?? 

    So the question is: are we really for a globalised economy with the natural competitiveness that it brings or rather are we going to go back to old protectionism? The economical crisis is going to point out which direction we are taking. But seeing President Obama calling for “Buy American products” is not a really good sign.
