Can This Be True: Islamization Of Britain As At 2017 by yanjutomi(m): 8:44pm On Jan 05, 2018
Reports of alleged links between Islamic charities and terrorism or extremism surged to a record high, according to the Charity Commission, a charity watchdog. Azad Ali, an Islamist who has said that he supports killing British soldiers, was named a director of Muslim Engagement and Development (Mend), a controversial Muslim pressure group which advises the British government. Ali said that the jihadist attack at Westminster on March 22, 2017 was not an act of terrorism. "Politicians tell us they are unafraid, but they are never the victims. How easy to be unafraid when one is protected from the line of fire. The people have no such protections." — Manchester- born singer Morrissey. The British government refused to say whether telling people about Christianity could be a hate crime. Lord Pearson of Rannoch said that when he raised a question on the issue in the House of Lords, the government failed to state clearly whether Christians can be prosecuted just for stating their beliefs. The Muslim population of Britain surpassed 4.1 million in 2017 to become around 6.3% of the overall population of 64 million, according to a recent study on the growth of the Muslim population in Europe. In real terms, Britain has the third-largest Muslim population in the European Union, after France, then Germany. The rapid growth of Britain's Muslim population can be attributed to immigration, high birth rates and conversions to Islam. Islam and Islam-related issues, omnipresent in Britain during 2017, can be categorized into several broad themes: 1) Islamic extremism and the security implications of British jihadists; 2) The continuing spread of Islamic Sharia law in Britain; 3) The sexual exploitation of British children by Muslim gangs; 4) Muslim integration into British society; and 5) The failures of British multiculturalism. JANUARY 2017 January 1. Hundreds of adult asylum seekers lied about their age in order to enter Britain "as teenagers," according to official data provided under the Freedom of Information Act. Figures obtained by Mail on Sunday show that social workers carried out 2,028 age tests between 2013-2016, during which almost one in four of the claimants — 465 — were found to be over 18. By concealing their real age, migrants hope to improve their chances of being granted asylum. January 1. Reports of alleged links between Islamic charities and terrorism or extremism surged to a record high, according to the Charity Commission, a charity watchdog. The number of times the Commission shared concerns about links between charities and extremism with police and other agencies nearly tripled, from 234 to 630 in just three years. January 4. Jamshid Piruz, a 34-year-old Afghan-born Dutch citizen declared guilty of murder in the Netherlands, pled guilty to attacking two British police officers with a hammer. Piruz entered the UK unchallenged, despite being convicted of decapitating a Chinese woman in Amsterdam. He was sentenced to 12 years in prison for the murder, but released early. As a Dutch resident, Piruz was allowed to travel freely across the EU. "Britain has got to have tougher border controls," said MP Henry Smith. January 6. St. Mary's Episcopal Cathedral in Glasgow featured a reading from the Koran which denied the divinity of Jesus Christ. The Koran reading, aimed at "reaching out to Muslims," was held on Epiphany, a festival which celebrates the incarnation of God in the person of Jesus Christ. One of the Queen's chaplains, Gavin Ashenden, referred to the Koran reading as "blasphemy" and said the decision showcased the limits of interfaith dialogue. He resigned on January 23 in order to "speak more freely" about the struggle of Christianity in British culture. January 7. Tanveer Ahmed, a 32-year-old jihadist serving a 27-year prison sentence for the murder in Glasgow of Asad Shah, an Ahmadi Muslim shopkeeper, issued a recording from Scotland's Barlinnie prison in which he called for the "elimination" of the enemies of Islam. January 8. MI5 launched a manhunt for a Syrian scientist posing as a refugee and plotting a chemical attack on a British seaside town. January 9. Inspectors from Ofsted, the schools regulator, concluded that Darul Hadis Latifiah, an all-boys school in East London, was not preparing pupils "for life in modern Britain." Many of the students at the school could not name the British prime minister. Inspectors also found books which "promoted inappropriate views" on how females should behave, and found a closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera in the bathroom. January 15. Twelve of Britain's most dangerous Islamic terrorists were to be placed in containment units in three prisons at a cost of about £1 million ($1.34 million) a year, according to The Sunday Times . The aim is to prevent them from radicalizing other inmates. January 17. Cambridge Professor Wendy Ayres- Bennett called on Britons to learn languages such as Polish, Punjabi and Urdu to make immigrant families feel more at home. She said that English speakers should think of immigration as a "two-way street" and be able to communicate in another language to aid integration and social cohesion. January 18. Manchester United appointed a counter-terrorism manager to protect against jihadist attacks. It was believed to be the first Premier League football club to do so. January 20. Gloucester Cathedral invited Imam Hassan of the local Masjid-e-Noor mosque to perform the traditional Muslim invocation to worship at the launch of a multicultural Faith Exhibition. A video of the call to prayer was posted on the cathedral's Facebook page. One commenter wrote: "My ancestors built this cathedral and to allow a practicing Muslim to pray to another god is insanely naive. What did you think it would do? Encourage them to convert?" January 22. Hani al-Sibai, a 55-year-old Islamic extremist, was granted £123,000 ($165,000) in public money to help him fight deportation, even though he is alleged to be a "key influencer" of the Ansar al-Sharia movement, a terror group which murdered 30 British tourists at a Tunisian beach resort. Al-Sibai, whose three-story housing association home in West London is worth £1 million, is also said to have radicalized Mohammed Emwazi, the Islamic State executioner known as "Jihadi John." January 24. St. Clare's School, a Roman Catholic School in Handsworth, found itself at the center of a social media storm after telling the parents of a four-year-old Muslim girl that she could not wear the hijab, a traditional Islamic headscarf, in class. The school has a strict uniform policy and asked the girl's parents to respect it. The girl's father refused and asked Birmingham City Council's Labour cabinet member Waseem Zaffar to intervene. Zaffar said: "I'm insisting this matter is addressed asap with a change of policy." January 25. Abandi Kassim, a 44-year-old taxi driver in Leicester, was fined for breaching equality laws when he refused to carry a guide dog because he claimed it was against his religion. Kassim turned away Charles Bloch, 22, who is legally blind, and his dog in Leicester in July 2016. He pled guilty to refusing to convey a guide dog, an offense under the Equality Act 2010, and was fined £340 ($450) plus £200 costs and a £50 victim surcharge. January 26. The City of Edinburgh invited citizens to vote for projects designed to create a city "free from Islamophobia." Some £40,000 ($54,000) were made available for projects "to help local people deliver innovative projects which reduce prejudice and foster positive relationships between diverse communities." January 28. Changing of the Guard ceremonies at Windsor Castle were cancelled amid fears of jihadist attacks. Police said jihadis could target soldiers and the thousands of tourists who gather to

Britain is falling
Re: Can This Be True: Islamization Of Britain As At 2017 by yanjutomi(m): 9:16pm On Jan 05, 2018
FEBRUARY 2017
February 1. Prime Minister Theresa May told
the House of Commons that women should
feel free to wear the hijab, a traditional
Islamic headscarf. Several European countries
have imposed bans on parts of Muslim
religious dress. "What a woman wears is a
woman's choice," May said.
February 2. Six Muslim men shouted "Allahu
Akbar" as they were sentenced at Sheffield
Crown Court for a total of 81 years for sexually
abusing two girls — including one who
became pregnant at age 12 — in Rotherham.
February 5. Muslim pupils outnumber
Christian children in more than 30 church
schools, including one Church of England
primary school that has a "100% Muslim
population," according to The Sunday Times .
St. Thomas in Werneth, Oldham, is reported to
have no Christian pupils, while at Staincliffe
Church of England Junior School in Batley,
West Yorkshire, 98% of pupils "come from a
Muslim background." The Church of England
estimated that about 20 of its schools had
more Muslim pupils than Christians and 15
Roman Catholic schools had majority Muslim
pupils.
February 7. Zakaria Bulhan, a 19-year-old
Norwegian national of Somali origin, was
sentenced to indefinite confinement at
Broadmoor Hospital after he admitted to
killing American tourist Darlene Horton and
wounding five others in a rampage in central
London on August 3, 2016. Bulhan, from
Tooting, South London, pled guilty at the Old
Bailey to "manslaughter by diminished
responsibility" on the grounds that he was
suffering from paranoid schizophrenia at the
time of the attacks. He had been charged with
murder and attempted murder, but the court
accepted his plea. During his arrest, Bulhan
repeatedly muttered "Allah, Allah, Allah," and
police found a Muslim prayer book, "Fortress
of the Muslim," in his pants pocket. The court,
however, decided that Islam was not a factor
in Bulhan's behavior.
February 7. A Chatham House survey of more
than 10,000 people from ten European
countries found that an average of 55% agreed
that all further migration from mainly Muslim
countries should be stopped. Majorities in all
but two of the ten states agreed, ranging from
71% in Poland, 65% in Austria, 53% in
Germany and 51% in Italy to 47% in the
United Kingdom and 41% in Spain.
February 9. A 44-year-old man from
Hertfordshire was arrested at Gatwick Airport
on terrorism charges after he disembarked
from a flight from Iraq. He was charged under
Section 5 of the 2006 Terrorism Act: suspicion
of preparation of terrorist acts.
February 12. A National Health Service (NHS)
project based on research by Leeds University
claimed that Muslims with mental health
issues could be helped by re-embracing Islam.
Lead researcher Ghazala Mir helped to create
a new treatment: Patients are asked if faith
was part of their life when they were well.
Those who stopped being religious are re-
introduced to Islam by means of a self-help
booklet.
February 14. Clayton McKenna, a 22-year-old
Briton who converted to Islam while in prison,
appeared at Newcastle Crown Court after he
carried an axe through the streets of Boldon
Colliery. Apparently, he had planned to
confront his Christian father over "religious
differences." McKenna allegedly told police
that he was on his way to his father's home
"to ask him to bow down to me." Judge Penny
Moreland told McKenna: "I am concerned that
there is no real explanation for your confused
thinking that morning, nor for those threats
made."
February 15. Faisal Bashir, a 43-year-old father
of two from Ilford, was forced to move out of
his home after he renounced Islam and
stopped attending a mosque. Bashir said he
was subject to harassment, but police
dismissed his pleas for help as "just a
nuisance." The Chairman of the Ilford-based
British Pakistani Christian Association (BPCA),
Wilson Chowdhry, said: "Police and councils
up and down the country just don't
understand the level of animosity people
choosing to leave Islam can face."
February 16. Metropolitan Police
Commissioner Bernard Hogan-Howe urged
Muslim scholars to step up efforts to counter
the Islamic State. He said he believed that IS
fighters were "political criminals" who were
carrying out "horrific violence" which had no
justification in Islam. In an interview with the
Evening Standard , Hogan-Howe repeated the
politically correct dogma that the Islamic State
is not Islamic.
February 18. Britain's first-ever "modest"
fashion event was held in London with more
than 40 designers displaying garments that
comply with Muslim values. Event organizer
Romanna Bint-Abubaker, founder of modest
fashion website Haute Elan, told Sky News:
"The fastest growing global consumer is at the
moment the Muslim market. By 2030, one in
three people will be a Muslim in the world —
that is a huge population."
February 19. Counter-terrorism police
launched an investigation into claims that
Trish O'Donnell, head of Clarksfield Primary
School in Oldham, was being forced to work
from home after death threats from Muslim
parents opposed to her Western values.
O'Donnell reportedly was subject to
"harassment and intimidation" in the form of
"aggressive verbal abuse" and "threats to blow
up her car" from parents pushing conservative
Muslim ideals. The school is mostly filled with
Pakistani pupils who do not speak English as a
first language.
February 20. Members of Parliament debated
U.S. President Donald J. Trump's state visit to
Britain. Left-wing MPs called for the invitation
to be withdrawn to protest Trump's travel ban
on people from seven Muslim-majority
countries. Conservative Party MPs accused
their opponents of hypocrisy and insulting the
American people.
February 21. Rezzas Abdulla, a 33-year-old
man from South Shields, was sentenced to
eight months in prison. The sentence was then
suspended so that he could receive treatment
for mental health problems, for assaulting a
woman and her nine-month old baby. Rebecca
Telford, 25, and her daughter were strolling in
South Shields in January 2016 when Abdulla
leaned into the baby carriage and spat into the
baby's mouth, and allegedly said, "white
people shouldn't breed," before launching into
a tirade of racial abuse.
February 22. Jamal al-Harith, a 50-year-old
British convert to Islam, blew himself up at an
Iraqi army base in Mosul. He had received £1
million (€1.1 million; $1.2 million) in
compensation from the British government
after being freed from Guantánamo Bay in
2004. Al-Harith, originally named Ronald
Fiddler, was born in Manchester to parents of
Jamaican origin and took the name Jamal al-
Harith when he converted to Islam. He was
also known more recently as Abu-Zakariya al-
Britani. Captured in Afghanistan in early 2002,
and released from Guantánamo Bay after two
years, he later joined IS.
February 23. The BBC paid "very substantial"
libel damages and broadcast a full apology to
Chowdhury Mueen-Uddin, founder member of
the Muslim Council of Britain, who was falsely
accused of calling for the lynching of author
Salman Rushdie.
February 26. Shahriar Ashrafkhorasani, a 33-
year-old Iranian-born convert from Islam set
to be ordained as a Church of England priest,
accused Oxford University of discrimination
and bias after he was told he could not ask a
professor questions about Islam. Bishop
Michael Nazir-Ali, a former senior fellow at
Wycliffe Hall, said that a "politically correct"
atmosphere is "very widespread in the
university as a whole." He added: "If people
are taking money from these [Muslim] sources,
then that can limit the critical approach to the
study of Islam and Muslim civilization
generally."
February 27. A spokesman for the West
Midlands Police wrote on social media that
parents caught practicing female genital
mutilation (FMG) on their children should not
be prosecuted. He revealed that the force is
opposed to "prosecuting/jailing" parents for
FGM because it would be "unlikely to benefit"
children who fall victim to the crime.
February 28. Patrick Kabele, a 32-year-old
convert to Islam, was found guilty of
preparing terrorist acts — namely attempting
to travel to Syria — contrary to the 2006
Terrorism Act. During his trial, jurors at
Woolwich Crown Court heard how Kabele,
from Willesden in North London, tried to join
the Islamic State in Syria, where he wanted to
buy a "nine-year-old virgin, the younger the
better." He added that if he had enough
money, he would buy four wives. Kabele, who
was born in Uganda and became a British
citizen, told police after his arrest that he did
not "owe an oath of allegiance" to the United
Kingdom.
