Dispatches: - One rule for Muslims, another rule for everyone else?????

[Pyramid*]

I'll be looking forward to watching this and seeing for myself what the camera shows - and if it's anything close to what's reported in the newspaper - I want to see the police and the authorities tackle this - but I guess I'll be waiting a long time.

I wonder how many of these teachers / instructors will actually be prosecuted - on various levels, physical abuse, indoctrination, teaching complete intolerance to other religions,faiths, cultures, and feeding bigotry at it's very worst. I'm all for live and let live, but most certainly not when this is the type of tuition being given to young British citizens, for that it what these children will be.

When the hell are our government actually going to do something productive instead of pandering to this type of nonsense.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1356361/Hidden-camera-shows-beatings-religious-segregation-inside-Muslim-faith-schools.html

In just two days of filming in December 2010, the camera recorded the teacher hitting children as young as six or seven at least ten times, in less than three hours of lessons.

I recall years ago, a father (a teacher ) in Scotland who smacked his little girl across the back of the legs in a dentists for her unruly behaviour: being prosecuted - to the point that he lost his job, and I think his house too eventually. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/347853.stm

Yet here we appear to have photographic evidence of much worse punishment - are our Authorities happy to let this go without prosecution?



And we came across pupils being told that the ‘disbelievers’ are ‘the worst creatures’ and that Muslims who adopt supposedly non-Muslim ways, such as shaving, dancing, listening to music and – in the case of women – removing their headscarves, would be tortured with a forked iron rod in the afterlife.

Yes, if the liberal bigots have their way. No doubt they will tell us we have no right to interfere with another's culture and practices, irrespective of the fact that they are being perpetrated on UK soil. So only non muslim kids are entitled to protection from brutality and sinister brainwashing techniques of the type usually used to recruit cult members, eh? I can understand why these methods are used by the fanatics, since anyone in their own right mind not being coerced or threatened, would reject such hate filled and baseless propaganda, especially against the host nation.

The Scottish teacher was actually jailed. I wonder if those involved in the goings on in this documentary will also be prosecuted and jailed.

I won't hold my breath.

And our government wonders why there is growing unrest for (particularly in this case) Muslims who chose to settle here - the (the Gov) give ris to that unrest and will continue to provoke and promote it until the laws of this land, this British land, are metted out fairly - regardless of race, creed, religion.

The other twist is that 'these type of fanatical Muslims' promoting Islam in such an terrible way, creates the most awful bad feeling towards the Muslim communities overall - and very unfairly. Until this type of thing is stamped out - without all the politically correct bull$hit - all it will do is damage relations.

Given the density of the Muslim population in the UK, those who say they follow Islam but to a peaceful level, without this incitement of hatred - If they really were so determined to distance themselves from this type of fanatical & bigoted brainwashing: the question has to be asked - why are they not up in arms about this type of thing. Why are they not rounding up in numbers to show their own solidarity in ostracising these fanatics?

Could it be that they are not as accepting of Western ways/cultures as they would like to think they are? It's certainly a possibility. Given the link to terrorism - It does make me wonder why this isn't happening.

I'm beginning to think their deafening silence and lack of action is more indicative of a tacit approval of the fanatics' methods. If there is increased resentment and suspicion of muslims from the general population it's hardly surprising is it? And by "general population" I am not just referring to white, christian Britons, but to a fair few other ethnicities who are equally fed up with what they see as special treatment of muslims.

We all know how well a policy of appeasement went down 70 odd years ago! Acceptance of barbaric and medieval practices is NOT tolerance, it is wilful and dangerous neglect of a growing threat in our country. If "moderate" muslims don't want to be tarred with the same brush, they need to start being a hell of a lot more vociferous in their renouncement of violence.

How about we watch the documentary and see the response to it before leaping to the conclusion that the authorities will do nothing.

A full investigation was launched after Undercover Mosque immediately after it was shown. As it happened, when looked at in the full context of things, they didnt have enough evidence to charge anyone but they did at least look into it.

by your own admission, and affirmation here MTVN - no one needs to jump to conclusions........ see the bit I have highlighted.

This is the UK. The laws of this land dictate that hitting a child is illegal. That means slapping about head, punching legs, kicking legs, grabbing child and slapping them are all illegal acts - all of which were recorded on camera. The Laws of this land are for all those who chose to stay here.

If they want to stay in the UK, they abide by the rules of the UK. If they break those rules, they should be treated exactly the same as non Muslims (ie: the general traditional British public)

What further evidence precisely would you suggest is required for the person responsible to be prosecuted? Wait till some child is punched hard enough that they fall, knocking their head and causing a fatal injury?

Christ, that's like saying, "Yep, we saw the video of the older man raping the child", not enough evidence but hey, we at least looked into it.

I'm talking about the Undercover Mosque documentary. As far as I remember that didnt feature content of children being hit, the program focused on the nature of the teaching and preaching at certain mosques. It was investigated immediately - something you are presuming they are not going to do here - but they concluded there wasnt enough evidence to prosecute.

From wiki

Members of the British Conservative and Labour parties have requested an official investigation into the alleged dissemination of hate speech at mosques.[9]

Muslim groups such as the Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC) have condemned the documentary as “another example of anti-Muslim hostility,” stating that it “exemplifies the problems of inherent Islamophobia and racism within the mainstream media.”[10] The Muslim Council of Britain criticised it as “heavily hyped,” while its Secretary-General, Muhammad Abdul Bari, described it as employing the “dishonest tactic of selectively quoting from some recorded speeches for the purpose of misrepresentation.”[11] The Islamic Cultural Center of London, the UK Islamic Mission, and the Markazi Jamiat Ahle-hadith organisations, all of whom are featured in the documentary, have issued separate responses.[11] In a press release, the Saudi Arabian Embassy in London denied the charges made by the documentary, labelling them as “false allegations.”[12]

The Saltley Gate Peace Group issued a press release giving its “undiminished support” to the Green Lane Masjid stating that Imam Abu Usamah “…is accepted by much of his congregation and the wider interfaith community to be a peaceful man and is known to promote peace to his congregation,” and that Abu Usamah “…encourages worshippers to avoid ‘political Islam and radicalism.’”[13]

"The 'throwing the homosexual of the mountain' comment was actually a quotation from Ibn 'Abbas, the famous Sahabi, who said: "Look for the highest building in the town, and then throw them down and stone them like the abode of Lut's people." It is from a book called Al Kabair (major sins) by Adh-Dhahabi, on which the imam in the Dispatches program was giving a lecture series.

Abu Usamah of Green Lane mosque, also has alleged that his words were taken out of context


Their council does nothing for them. Only so many times you can play the Islamophobia card.

It amounts to the same thing as far as I am concerned. The same thing. Practices taking place which if it were by 'British white man', they'd have no hesitation in pulling out all the stops to prosecute.

It's called being pathetically cowardly and allowing the tail to wag the dog.

you can bet your bottom dollar that there will be no action taken against this man - a white man with no previous convictions smacks his daughter for bad behaviour in a dentist, loses his job, and get thrown into jail for 6months.

I bet you don't see so much as a fine, neve mind a jail sentence for this evil old abusing bastard - never mind the hatred he is teaching towards Non Muslims (which given they all are living in a Non Muslim Country, is a bloody cheek).

Well what about that documentary on the BNP a few years back? They tried to highlight the extremism of the party, just as Dispatches tried to highlight the extremism of the Mosques. Admittedly Griffin did get taken to court (maybe there was more evidence, I'm not sure) but he was found innocent. You seem to have a bit of a chip on your shoulder here.

You're still jumping to the conclusion that there will be no action taken with no real solid reason to do, other than your own suspicions. What evidence is there to suggest no action will be taken?

Well it all depends what they class themselves as. Muslim, British Muslims. Or sometimes where their family come from. They have identity crisis big time. I think we're fighting a losing battle. In the sense that nothing much will change, even after this doc.

I have no issue with any denomination who wish to follow their own faith in this country. None at all.

I do however draw the line when they use the race card to hide behind practices that would not be acceptable for any other 'traditional British person'. I'm not throwing a general banner around for all Muslims here, let me make that very clear. I'm directing this at those who incite hatred, bigotry, and who instil contempt in anyone who does not follow the same faith, with such teaching practises. It's that particular segment that needs to be flushed out.

Well MTVN, that should be "those chips from your shoulders" to be grammatically correct, but your concern for my peace of mind is both unsolicited and unnecessary, but, gee, thanks anyway.:rolleyes:

I don't take seriously most of the ridiculous comments and PC views on this forum since they're spouted by kids, most of whom still live with mummy and daddy, have never done a day's work, think the world owes them a living, and don't contribute anything whatever to society as yet. It's not really their fault to a great extent since they have been brainwashed by the left wing propaganda which is endemic in our colleges and university and almost as much a problem as the brainwashing going on in these faith schools. Unfortunately, those that have been brainwashed are the last people to be aware of it:pat:

There will always be ignorant and bigoted people, and the fact that this documentary pointed out where the true ignorance and bigotry lies clearly doesn't sit well with the liberal apologists on this forum.

I find it totally predictable that you would find some way of attempting to defend the indefensible, even though it was evidence presented for universal consumption, and the footage viewed was not tampered with (as would be the normal accusations levelled at such exposees):bored:

The fact that "a man" has been arrested for assaults on children doesn't go anywhere near far enough to bringing these bigots to heel - how about arrests for inciting hatred, violence and racism against anyone who is NOT a muslim? That's okay is it, or are you going to talk yourself into believing this is not really a serious problem? If this had been a Christian, Jewish, Hindu or any other faith school teaching such intolerance against Muslims, it would have been a different story, and no doubt they would have felt the FULL force of the law.

Be grateful I've even bothered to respond to your post since I usually ignore your drivel:

I'll remove the chip when I see the man actually prosecuted and jailed...... being arrested means nothing. Being found guilty, convicted and given a prison sentence is a world away from an arrest.

*Checks to see if chip is still firmly in place on shoulder. Happy to confirm it is*

As for the Guardian link:- as suspected - complete denial regarding the hatred and bigotry that is being taught (remember- there was a 'younger' teacher/lecturer, with at least 2 far older staff members also present whilst this young man spoke about the 'infedels',Hindus etc..... and not one of them batted an eyelid, nor disagreed with this younger lecturer.....


The Birmingham footage was obtained by an undercover reporter posing as a volunteer, using a hidden camera. It showed a preacher at Darul Uloom, a fee-paying school in Small Heath, making offensive remarks about Hindus, ranting about non-Muslims and telling pupils they face torture in the afterlife if they adopt western customs such as dancing or listening to music. He tells them to avoid more liberal Muslims. "The person who's got less than a fistful of beard, then you should stay away from him the same way you should stay away from a serpent or a snake." Another group are told in an assembly: "The disbelievers, they are the worst of all people. The Hindus do, they drink piss, I've told you this. Do they have any intellect? No."

After meeting West Midlands police, headteacher Mujahid Aziz said half-term would begin a week early. Pupils will not return to classes until March.

"What people will see in that clip is completely contrary to what we teach at the school about harmony and awareness of different faiths," said Aziz. "Our concern now is for the safety of children and people coming to the mosque, because we are worried that some people will get completely the wrong impression once they have watched this programme."

John Hemming, the Liberal Democrat MP for Birmingham Yardley, criticised the documentary: "If Channel 4 thinks this is a school where racism and intolerance is accepted in any way, they have got their facts seriously wrong. [The school] have already had hate mail, and now they are having to close for the safety of their pupils. This kind of documentary is ideal fodder for the [far-right] English Defence League. Channel 4 is putting the safety of children at risk by criticising a school which is doing its job properly."


got it completely wrong eh? Got the wrong impression huh? Here's a little bit of upfront truth : the camera recorded exactly what was going on. The facts cannot be disputed in what was being lectured and in the vein in was being lectured - with older members of staff neither disagreeing or chastising the younger lecturer. Why? Because what was recorded there, was exactly what was going on. The only reason the denial factor, 'completely contrary to what we teach' retorts have come about, is for one reason only: the were caught out. No one is telling me for one second, that this was a isolated lecture, with two older members present who said nothing during it.

As for John Hemming, he needs to take take the blinkers off, clean his ears out and go spend some time at the Opticians. A short spell at with a good psychiatrist might not be remiss either if he seriously thinks that the school in question wasn't advocating racism and intolerance.

Yep, didn't seem much of a conclusion. I mean the kids were getting beat was by one guy and maybe a few others which were caught on camera can be sorted.

What do you expect of the Guardian and the sort of people who read that rag? If the school is getting hate mail, it's no more than they deserve, and poetic justice in fact, considering their hate filled rants, and offensive use of the word Kafir, the Arabic version of the "N" word to describe anyone who doesn't share their medieval, intolerant and barbaric interpretation of what is purported to be a peaceful religion.

And what a coincidence! On the very occasion there just HAPPENS to be a hidden camera, this ISOLATED lecture took place, unchecked and unopposed by senior staff! And it's never happened before, and won't again. Yeah right.:rolleyes: The trouble with people like this is that they assume we're all as stupid and ignorant as they are to believe such a load of BS. But then again there are a fair few Guardian readers on this forum judging by the drivel I've been reading lately.

He plays the race card because he CAN and probably always has - that's what the result of 13 years' of New Labour has done to this country - silencing any dissent of their lunatic and shambolic multicultural policy, imposed on the British people without any proper social structures in place, by encouraging people to scream "racist" at the slightest murmur of criticism.

This government needs to grow a massive pair of balls and do something about these vipers in our nest.

That is what I never get about these "community leaders" all they do is pass the blame on and claim they're being victimized, and yet they never seem to ask the community to help stop it.

And any group that are to speak against it who aren't Muslims are instantly labelled 'racist' or 'Islamophobe'.

"Why aren't Muslims crowding in the streets trying to stop extremism,"

This Docu' has

True. Some label others because they are terrified of hearing the truth and are in denial.....and some because they want to belong to the goody goody two shoes brigade.....and some because they are as thick as a planet full of short planks. And some of course because they simply want votes (power) at any price.

No doubt before the last war people warned against the uprising culture of Hitlers Germany and many did not listen enough........We all know how fatal that was..... Sadly History always repeats itself......With increasingly disasterous results......

Well MTVN, that should be "those chips from your shoulders" to be grammatically correct, but your concern for my peace of mind is both unsolicited and unnecessary, but, gee, thanks anyway.:rolleyes:

I don't take seriously most of the ridiculous comments and PC views on this forum since they're spouted by kids, most of whom still live with mummy and daddy, have never done a day's work, think the world owes them a living, and don't contribute anything whatever to society as yet. It's not really their fault to a great extent since they have been brainwashed by the left wing propaganda which is endemic in our colleges and university and almost as much a problem as the brainwashing going on in these faith schools. Unfortunately, those that have been brainwashed are the last people to be aware of it:pat:

There will always be ignorant and bigoted people, and the fact that this documentary pointed out where the true ignorance and bigotry lies clearly doesn't sit well with the liberal apologists on this forum.

I find it totally predictable that you would find some way of attempting to defend the indefensible, even though it was evidence presented for universal consumption, and the footage viewed was not tampered with (as would be the normal accusations levelled at such exposees):bored:

The fact that "a man" has been arrested for assaults on children doesn't go anywhere near far enough to bringing these bigots to heel - how about arrests for inciting hatred, violence and racism against anyone who is NOT a muslim? That's okay is it, or are you going to talk yourself into believing this is not really a serious problem? If this had been a Christian, Jewish, Hindu or any other faith school teaching such intolerance against Muslims, it would have been a different story, and no doubt they would have felt the FULL force of the law.

Be grateful I've even bothered to respond to your post since I usually ignore your drivel:

Wow, what a pointless comment, only the last paragraph actually held any relevance to the discussion. I suppose I'll correct you on the rest of the crap you wrote although I dont know why I should bother

You're right about one thing; I do live with my parents, I am only 17 after all, but no I do not think "society" owes me a living, on the contrary in fact. Nor am I "left wing", I find the classification of people into left and right pretty pointless, I am neither.

You were arguing that the authorities would do nothing and take no action, straight after the documentary a man was arrested, therefore you were incorrect. I dont know if they're investigating whether they incited racial hatred or not and I dont particularly care, I dont even think such laws should exist but that's another matter.

I'll remove the chip when I see the man actually prosecuted and jailed...... being arrested means nothing...

I am aware that an arrest does not necessarily result in a prosecution but I never said it did. I was just pointing out that immidiately after the program was aired the authorities took some action, something you were adamant would not happen

You don't particularly care if they incited racial hatred or not? I'm astounded and I find that viewpoint concerning to say the very least and definately bordering on being ignorant to the issues it surrounds. You don't care that young children are taught to hate with a passion? You don't think such laws should exist - you think it's acceptable that one set of human beings should be taught to hate, loathe and utterly despise another set of human being simply because they don't follow the same religious backgrounds and beliefs? Good God. How can anyone not care about such hatred being taught or incited - its no wonder that there is so much trouble in the world. It's from such extreme manical teachings that lead to extremists carrying out acts of terrorism etc - because such hatred in instilled from young ages. Regardless of the culture, creed, religion of those concerned.


If what I have read as being reported is correct: the only reason that the police even took this action was due to the amount of complaints from members of the public after the programme was shown. If there is truth to this at all (which none of us will be in a position to clarify or not) - it would show that the police acted only because of the public reaction- rather than act because the law has been broken. I'm quite entitled to have that opinion MTVN. I may or may not be correct, but it doesn't invalidate my right to state what I believe. I believe the police did nothing to actually act upon laws of this land being broken until public reaction was gauged.

from the very newspaper link you qutoted earlier: the police saw the clips days before the show was aired, but didn't act until after it was shown.

West Yorkshire police issued a statement regarding the arrest: "We have recently become aware of a number of incidents of alleged assault at a mosque and just before the weekend were able to view edited footage of the alleged incident


Reason for the delay? If you ask me, they waited to see what public reaction was - possibly hoping for there to be no outcry - and only acted on the arrest when the footage was aired and the public did cry out.

I dont think the "incitement to racial hatred" laws should exist because it's an infringement on freedom of speech. Freedom of speech is absolute and applies to all, we might consider it immoral for someone to advocate and extremist branch of Islam but I wouldnt make it illegal.

The only time I would consider "incitement" a crime is when there is no room for every persons free will, if they are compulsed to racially hate. Having said that maybe this is a case of that happening, as children are pretty susceptible at that age and will inevitably tend to believe what they are taught. So maybe I shouldnt have said I dont care and this may well truly be a case of inciting hatred, but generally speaking I am against such laws. Just as you state you are entitled to your opinion on the police here, so am I on incitement laws without being branded ignorant.

I'll address your final point before I go any further. I did not brand you anything, far less brand you ignorant. Context is the crucial point. I said quite specifically, "I find that viewpoint concerning to say the very least and definately bordering on being ignorant to the issues it surrounds.

Not you, your viewpoint - and that viewpoint as being ignorant to the issues it surrounds.

Again, I am aghast that you feel freedom is speech means people can effectively say whatever they like, being taught whatever people wish them to be taught - and not expect such overt freedom of speech to have severe ramifications. One example: Klu Klux Klan. They said whatever they liked, they instilled their hatred to such proportions that it affected their behavior (burning people alive at the stake because they had a different colour of skin as a common occupation of the KKK, gang raping tender young males & females etc). That is why there respect has to be taught, respect and tolerance for all races, creed, religions -because without those 2 very important aspects (respect and tolerance) - the world may as well rip each other apart and all law enforcement agencies may as well hang up their boots and badges right now.

Well I'm aware my viewpoint on this may seem extreme but I believe that all people, no matter how reprehensible or immoral we consider them, have the right to speak whatever they so wish. I'm aware of the KKK & it's history, although lynchings was more their thing, I'm not aware of them having gang-raped anybody, but anyway yes I believe even they should have free speech. I absolutely agree that respect and tolerance should be advocated but I dont believe a viewpoint should be censored because we disagree with it; if we do not believe in free speech for those we despise than we dont believe in at all.

All human beings have free will at the end of the day, I entrust them to make their own decisions on what is right and what is wrong. If they listen to a speech by a member of the KKK, or the BNP for that matter, and take on board racist views and act on them then that was their responsbility and their choice to do so. The only time I think "incitement" should be a crime is if it leaves the individual no other choice, and if he is obliged in some way to act as someone tells him to. Other than that then an extremist or racist viewpoint should be condemned, given no credibility and considered immoral, but it should not be illegal.

What a load of hypocritical bollocks about freedom of speech, when the usual saddo ignorant suspects jump on anyone who has the audacity to express a view that hasn't been lifted straight out of the Guardian. They lean so far over that they deserve to be shafted by those in our midst who exploit every so called "human right" for their own ends and sod anyone who gets in their way.

There's nothing hypocritical about me supporting freedom of speech, where have I haver been opposed to it? I do just love how you went into a frenzy when someone said you were the Daily Mail in human form and then you go and stereotype anyone who disagrees with you as a Guardian reader.

Seems to me the Liberati are happy for the world and his wife to have freedom of speech, no matter how inflammatory or offensive, but YOU and I? Not a hope:bored: They wouldn't recognise commonsense and justice if it smacked them in the face - I don't know whether to be sorry for them or just ridicule them as an endless source of amusement.

Sure have your free speech, you're entitled to your viewpoint, I think it's a load of bollocks but I wont stop you from having it.
