Is There
Actually
A Change Occurring
In The Muslim Community
In The UK?


One can only hope. Check out this, from the BBC:


'Islamic duty' to help UK police

Muslims have been told it is their 'Islamic duty' to co-operate with the police to ensure Britain's safety.

The statement was agreed at a "deeply significant" meeting in London held by the Muslim Council of Britain.

More than 200 people, including imams, community activists and police representatives, gathered to lay out ways to combat the threat of terrorism.

A spokesman said there was a real willingness to accept the "problem within the Muslim community".

Press were excluded from the "lively" two and a half hour meeting, but Inayat Bunglawala, from the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), spoke to the BBC News Website afterwards.
'Lethal' interpretation


He said: "One of the key factors that we are agreed on is that there's an Islamic duty to co-operate with the police to ensure the safety of British citizens, Muslims and non-Muslims."

The problem, he said, lay with a small number of extremists who shared a "violent world view" and who are "killing civilians for what they believe is an interpretation of Islam".

Mr Bunglawala added that leading imams at the meeting called it a "lethal misinterpretation".
In addition to the cultural impact of the alleged bomb plots in Glasgow and London, the meeting also discussed the effects of foreign policy on fundamentalism.


Mr Bunglawala said: "Some naturally raised the issue of foreign policy and we agreed our actions overseas have inadvertently helped the spread of extremist ideas."

MCB secretary general Dr Muhammad Abdul Bari told the meeting at the Islamic Cultural Centre next to Regent's Park mosque: "These people who attempt to kill or maim in this way are enemies of us all."


I'd like to think so. Certainly, I've never seen this kind of statement (initiating cooperation with the authorities) issued before.

However, at the same time, we see once again that the MCB are tying the rise in extremism to British foreign policy, where the goal has been to establish a Democracy in Iraq.

So, who cares? Why are we supposed to care that that leads to a rise in extremism? That's like saying that policemen arresting criminals leads to a rise in criminals shooting policemen.

And, isn't Mr. Bunglawala once somehow tied into the mix in a death threat directed at Charles Johnson?

Yes, he was.

Mr. Bunglawala is not a man I trust, but perhaps, as I said at the top of this post, encouragement from the MCB for the public to cooperate with the authorities does indicate a sea-change.

I certainly hope so.

When scores of arrests are made, and those who drive out the murderers are seen as HEROES ...give me a ring. Until then, SSDD

I simply don't believe them. Period.

KG,
I have a hard time believing it too. But, I feel it is my duty to report it.

Hope you understand.

They are just buying more time for the longer-term demographic Jihad by pretending to do what the infidels want to see and say what the infidels want to hear. If I were thinking like an Islamist, I would do exactly what the MCB is doing now and let the "moderation" initiative drag on and on for years in order to increase the Muslim population.

Anonymous,
Sadly, I think you are correct.

Epaminondas said...

In that case I guess we had better plan for a large wave of euro-immigrants again.

This world is a stupid gathering of morons.

Al Andalus and Tours, then the Crusades is not example enough?

What next, demographic invasion, exodus, civil wars and counter invasion over the next 300 years?

Pastorius said...

No Epa,

Even sadder, massive civil war within the next generation. There are many, many Americans who are very heavily armed.

One Jihadi nuke will ruin the Jihadis whole millenial plan.

I really think we are going to end up destroying them.

Nasser revoked the citizenships of Jews in Egypt in the 1950's, so the Islamic World cannot complain when the West starts deporting troublemaking Muslims in its midst, citizens or not.

Following recent adverse reactions in Glasgow, Muslim doctors should perhaps avoid Scotland and consider moving to Wales.

Wales is a land of opportunity and reservoirs. It is the ideal place for a young Muslim doctor with an interest in microbial pathogens to gain his first practical experience.

However, as well as opportunities there are risks, such as the dangers of seduction by the lustful Welsh sheep, goats and cows. Muslim pedoetricians should also be warned about the sex-mad Welsh toddlers who will lead them astray and then complain to their Islamophobic parents that they started it.

But most of all, as trainee doctors, they must be made aware of the filthy Kuffar slags known as nurses.

My Muslim colleagues - Dr Leeth al-Dohs, Dr Homi Saeed and Dr Aggun I. Singh-Deth - received an invitation from the dirty-dancing clitorally-intact nurse bints to attend a disco where these gyrating slags pulsate their uncovered meat to the lustful rhythms of their accursed infidel music.

(Please excuse me a moment while I pay homage to my trouser-minaret. - Ahhhh... that's better!!!!)

I was unable to attend because I was involved in certain experiments regarding new uses for nitroglycerin borrowed from the hospital pharmacy, Dr Leeth al-Dohs was working on Kuffar infant mortality, Dr Homi Saeed was spending most of his time in the microbiology lab following the untimely deaths of his two technicians, and Dr Aggun I. Singh-Deth was designing an advanced type of ambulance which can get to places where no jeep would be allowed to enter.

Luckily, Dr Homi Saeed's younger brother, Sewi, said he would go to the disco, and had a special jacket made for the occasion, full of king-sized Lebanese party-poppers. He said he expects have a good bang with the nurses before the night is over.

"In that case I guess we had better plan for a large wave of euro-immigrants again."

Ahhh, and there's the rub! Robert Kennedy's Immigration Act of 1965 made certain that Europeans would find no haven in the United States. As with Affirmative Action, Europeans are permanently exiled to the bottom of the immigration lists. (Yes of course there are "European" and even "Israeli" immigrants to the United States..however, a concrete quota of "80% from the 3rd world" remains in place. It will only get worse folks.

Remember, it was we, the Europeans, who made it possible for the non-Europeans to come to this country........when absolutely NO NON-EUROPEAN country would allow them in. It is an indication of our flawed education system that 1st and 2nd generation US immigrants cannot appreciate this fact. In the 1960's, concerned Americans warned that slamming the door shut to 1st world immigrants would inevitably lead to the USA becoming a 3rd world nation itself....both culturally and economically.

Today we live on LOANS from China and Saudi Arabia. The United States cannot support itself....just like the former homelands of 80% of our new citizens.

Peace,

Michael

Dr. Kilah,
You are cracking me up. Thanks for all your important and revealing comments.

Michael,
That is interesting information about immigration. I did not know we had put such limits on European immigrants. How fucking stupid we are.

Our buddy (and close confidant of Osama Bin Laden & Adnan El Shukrijumah) Bilal Philips (Piss be all over him) described Canada of the early sixties this way (Obviously that same goes for the USA);

When Bilal was eleven, his family migrated to Canada and for the first time the sensitive boy began to feel that all was not right with the world.

“Most of the Canadians at that time were Euro-Canadians”, he says, “and the Europeans, of course, had an idea of their own superiority. They had gone around and smashed up everybody else's society, so they had to justify the destruction of human civilisation by promoting their own superiority over others. Those feelings are expressed in much of their literature, in films, on television and so forth.”

Today of course, it's very different. European heritage and culture are things to apologise for.
