Britain - Courting The Muslim Vote

How low will labor stoop to court the Muslim vote? This low.


Gordon Brown last night paid tribute to British Muslims as "modern heroes" who brought hope and idealism to the country.


Now I could be tempted here to produce any number of examples to prove Brown wrong but some would simply say I'm using extremists as examples and they don't represent so called "moderate" Muslims. So I'll do better than that - much better.

The Muslim Council of Britain is considered "the" moderate voice of Muslims in Britain. Here is what their leader, Iqbal Sacranie, recently had to say about Muslim terrorists.


'There is no such thing as an Islamic terrorist. This is deeply offensive.


Sacranie is at a loss to explain how all terrorists so far have all been Muslims.

Brown continues his pandering for Muslim votes.


The Chancellor said they had contributed to Britain spiritually and economically because Islam was a religion that encouraged fair play, social justice and equality.


Well, golly gee Gordon, could you please tell us why women can't vote or drive a car in Saudi Arabia? Surely Saudi Arabia is considered "moderate" Islam, isn't it? If you believe that Gordon, then perhaps you can explain the hate being taught against the "infidels" by the Saudis.

In the Red Zone has more "from the Center for Religious Freedom's absolutely essential report...

"To be disassociated from the infidels is to hate them for their religion, to leave them, to never rely on them for support, not to admire them, to be on one's guard against them, never imitate them, and to always oppose them in every way according to Islamic law.

-- literature found by the Center for Religious Freedom's researchers at the the Saudi Arabian-supported Islamic Center of Washington, D.C. (For a pdf-formatted version of this eye-opening report, go here; for an executive summary, here.)


Pandering for Muslim votes is one thing but old Gordy has bought into the whole Muslim psycobable and is busy converting Britain to Islamic or Sharia Law. Don't believe me? Take a look at this:

The UK has already begun to adopt Sharia Laws.

Gordon Brown, the chancellor, has already made one significant concession to adapt to the dictates of sharia. In the 2003 Finance Act he spared Muslims from paying stamp duty twice on their properties when they took out “Islamic mortgages” that complied with the sharia ban on paying interest.

More Sharia laws are planned here in the UK.

THE Inland Revenue is considering recognising polygamy for some religious groups for tax purposes. Officials have agreed to examine “family friendly” representations from Muslims who take up to four wives under sharia, the laws derived from the Koran.

Just think, this guy might just well be the next prime minister after Blair. Buy your turbans and burkas now.

UPDATE

Via the Adventuress

Gordy might do well to read this report from Human Rights Watch.

Women migrants, like their Saudi counterparts, face a system of Islamic jurisprudence under which women’s testimony carries half the weight of the testimony of men. Victims of sexual violence, including rape, have little prospect of holding their assailants accountable in shari’a courts.


Erm, excuse me Gordy, but what was that you were saying about "social justice and equality"?
