Welcome to the latest issue of the BNP's Nationalist Jihad Watch Bulletin, dedicated to exposing the truth about the Muslim holy war against Britain and the entire non-Muslim world.

1. MUSLIMS TELLING US HOW TO RUN OUR SCHOOLS

http://www.dailyexpress.co.uk/news_detail.html?sku=1264

Demands for a ban on ‘un-Islamic’ activities in schools will be set out by the Muslim Council of Britain today. Targets include playground games, swimming lessons, school plays, parents’ evenings and even vaccinations. And the calls for all children to be taught in Taliban-style conditions will be launched with the help of a senior Government education adviser. Professor Tim Brighouse, chief adviser to London schools, was due to attend the event at the capital’s biggest mosque. His presence there was seen as ‘deeply worrying’, and a sign that the report was backed by the Government. Tory MP Greg Hands said: ‘The MCB needs to realise it has to move closer to the rest of the community, not away from it. ‘The presence of Tim Brighouse implies Government back­ing of this report.

This is very worrying.’ Terry Sanderson of the National Secular Society said the report was a ‘recipe for disaster’. He added: ‘Schools with even just a handful of Muslim kids will find they have to follow these guidelines because there aren’t the staff to have one set of classes for Muslims and another for the rest. ‘The MCB shouldn’t try to force its religious agenda on children who may not want it. The Government needs to send the MCB packing. Schools should be about teaching, not preaching.’ The report, Towards Greater Understanding – Meeting The Needs of Muslim Pupils In State Schools, says all schools should bring in effective bans for all pupils on ‘un-Islamic activities’ like dance classes. It also wants to limit certain activities during Ramadan.

They include science lessons dealing with sex, parents’ evenings, exams and immunisation programmes. The holy month – when eating and drinking is not allowed in daylight hours – should also see a ban on swimming lessons in case pupils swallow water in the pool. When swimming is allowed, boys should wear clothing covering their bodies ‘from the navel to the neck’, even during single-sex pool sessions, while girls must be covered up completely at all times, apart from the face and hands. The MCB adds that schools should ensure contact sports, including football and basketball, ‘are always in single-gender groups’. Even school trips are targeted in the report, which wants them all to be made single-sex ‘to encourage greater participation from Muslim pupils’.

It wants Arabic language classes for Muslim pupils, and says the Koran should be recited in music classes. And all schools should ensure they have prayer rooms with washing facilities attached, it says. In art classes, Muslim children should not be allowed to draw people, as this is forbidden under some interpretations of Islamic law. And while the MCB insists that all British children should learn about Islam, it wants Muslims to have the right to withdraw their children from RE lessons dealing with Christianity and other faiths. The MCB says special treatment and opt-outs are necessary because otherwise Muslim pupils will feel excluded from school activities and lessons.

The MCB claims to be the voice of Britain’s 1.5million Muslims and was heavily courted by politicians including Tony Blair following the September 11 attacks. Its former secretary-general Iqbal Sacranie was awarded a knighthood in 2005. But other Muslim groups criticised the report. Dr Ghayasuddin Siddiqui of the Muslim Parliament of Great Britain said: ‘There has been no discussion on these issues in the Muslim community.’

And the Sufi Muslim Council – which claims to represent far more British Muslims than the MCB – said the report misunderstood Ramadan. It added: ‘This is not what Islam or Ramadan is about. Ramadan is about training yourself while carrying on with everyday life.’ The Department for Edu­cation tried to distance itself from the report last night, and insisted Professor Brighouse was attending the launch only in a ‘personal capacity’. A spokesman said it would read the report ‘with interest’. The MCB did not comment. It came as Britain's first Muslim peer called for women to stop wearing veils, claiming that they represent ‘a barrier to integration’.

Reigniting the debate over the face veil, or niqab, Lord Ahmed of Rotherham said there was no religious reason why Muslim women should wear them – and claimed that veils now cause society more harm than good. The peer, who has urged the authorities to clamp down on preachers of hate, spoke during a debate held in the heart of the Arab world. He told a mainly Muslim audience in Doha, Qatar, that he does not want a legal ban on the veil being worn in public – as many other nations are introducing, including Muslim Turkey and Egypt.

But he said, ’The face veil is a barrier to integration in the West. The veil is now a mark of separation, segregation and defiance against mainstream British culture. ‘There’s nothing in the Koran to say that wearing a niqab is desirable, let alone compulsory. It’s purely cultural. It’s an identity thing which has been misinterpreted. ‘They were supposed to be worn so that women wouldn’t be harassed. But women, and communities as a whole, are now being harassed because they are wearing them.' The Muslim Council of Britain’s assistant secretary general, Inayat Bunglawala, said yesterday: ‘Peoples’ attitudes are responsible for harming integration, not veils. ‘And wearing them is very much a matter for individual Muslim women.’ The full document, setting forth the outrageous Muslim demands, is here:

2. GOVERNMENT MAY BLOCK LONDON SUPERMOSQUE

http://in.news.yahoo.com/070218/43/6c80o.htm

l The British government is likely to block plans to build a 'supermosque' on a site close to the venue of the 2012 Olympics in east London. The supermosque, called London Markaz, is supposed to have room for 70,000 worshippers. The group behind the project is reported to be Tablighi Jamaat, whose charitable trust, the Anjuman-e-Islahul Muslimeen, owns the 18-acre site. According to the Sunday Telegraph, the Tablighi Jamaat was called 'an ante-chamber for fundamentalism' by French security services, and two of the July 7 London suicide bombers had reportedly attended one of its mosques. The report also said that the organisation denied any link to terrorism, and noted that it had never been banned. However, a senior security source told the paper that he was concerned about the proposed mosque. The planning application for the mosque is expected to be turned down by the government.

An unnamed senior government source told the paper that there were fears that the giant mosque could damage community relations in the area, and added: 'We are going to stop it.' One of the reasons for turning down permission to build the mosque is that it is so close to the main Olympic venue that it may interfere with preparations for the Games. The government source told the paper that the planning application needed to be rejected 'to give the Olympics a clear run'. The report added that until recently, it was expected that the permission would be granted after the project was agreed in principle in 2001 between the Newham Council and the Anjuman-e-Islahul Muslimeen. The report said that the London Thames Gateway Unitary Development Corporation, which has planning powers over the site, and the London Development Agency had supported the plans.

A spokesperson of a lobbying firm hired by Tablighi Jamaat said: 'Our client utterly refutes any links to terrorism. It is a predominantly apolitical organisation seeking to go about its faith in a peaceful way.' The report added that Muslims living near the site in West Ham had raised more than 3,000 signatures on a petition calling for the project to be halted. The petitioners want any new mosque to draw in all strands of Islam, it said. Alan Craig, a Newham councillor for the Christian People's Alliance party, warned of the 'community and security impact' that the mosque would have, and claimed that Muslims were already moving into the area in preparation for its opening. In a separate move, the Kingsway International Christian Centre, Europe's biggest evangelical church with a capacity of 12,000, is being pulled down to make way for the Olympics, the Sunday Telegraph added.

3. LONDON, MUSLIM CAPITAL OF EUROPE?

http://www.cbn.com/CBNnews/83805.aspx

Some now call London the 'Muslim capital of Europe.' No Western city has more mosques. And now London could be home to the largest Mosque outside of the Middle East. Today, a neglected piece of real estate on London's east end sees little more than commuter trains rumbling past it. But it's the future location of what some say will be the biggest Islamic in-road into Christendom in 400 years: a gigantic mosque complex, the likes of which the West has never seen. The land for the proposed mega-mosque now only hosts a small building -- a make-shift mosque. But imagine a huge modern Islamic complex right in London; in effect, an Islamic village for worshippers.

A video from the Web site of the mosque architect Ali Mangera shows what will be called the London Markaz, a 17-acre Islamic worship center for as many as 70,000 Muslims. Planned to be the hub of an Islamic quarter for the 2012 London Olympics, it will dwarf many of Britain's Christian cathedrals. Alan Craig of Christian Peoples Alliance said, 'It's going to be very large. It's going to be a mosque, it's going to be an Islamic garden, there's going to be a library, there's going to be residential accommodation. Craig is a councilman for the London borough of Newham where the mosque would be built. He's fighting it. 'I'm not anti-Muslim,' Craig said. 'I'm a democrat. I believe Muslims have the right to build mosques. But there's a difference between your average mosque down the road, and this monster mosque, this mega-mosque that they want to build.' But it's not just the size of the mega-mosque that's a concern. It's who's behind it -- a shadowy group called Tablighi Jamaat. The FBI says that Tablighi Jamaat has ties to al-Qaeda.

The shoe bomber, Richard Reid, was associated with Tablighi Jamaat, as were two of the 7/7 bombers who struck London's public transportation system in 2005. The money for the project is coming from sources in the Middle East. Even moderate British Muslims oppose the mosque, and have circulated a petition against it. One of the leaders of the Muslim opposition is Dr Irfan al-Alawi, who says the mosque will be a security threat. Al-Alawi said, 'I think, yes. Once the youth have been brainwashed, and been captured by the satanic ideology of the Tablighis, yes, it will come as a very hard-hitting movement.' But while some moderate British Muslims may think the mega-mosque is a bad idea, it has one important booster, the Mayor of London. 'The person who is really behind it is Ken Livingstone,' al-Alawi said. Far-left London Mayor Ken Livingstone, also known as 'Red Ken,' has what some would describe as a pro-Islamist, anti-Israel track record. He's called Ariel Sharon a 'war criminal' and has said that British Muslims who go to the Middle East and kill Israelis should not be called terrorists.

The mega-mosque project might have sailed through before 9/11. But in 2007, Britain is now considered a major base for homegrown Islamic terrorism. Newsweek reports that Britons are traveling to Pakistan where they're being trained to carry out terrorist attacks in the UK. Al-Alawi says Pakistan is also where Tablighi Jamaat sends young British-born Muslims to be brainwashed into extremism. Al-Alawi asked , 'Is the British government really going to turn a blind eye on that and say, let's go ahead and give these people a chance? I don't think so. If they want a 9/11 in England, then by all means.' But Melanie Phillips, author of Londonistan, says the British left still believes that accommodating radical Muslims will somehow pacify them. 'It's taken the line of least resistance and it, very foolishly in my view, believes that if you give in to the demands being made by extremists, you kind of make the problem go away,' explained Phillips. But if anything, the 'problem' in Britain is growing.

Polls last year showed almost a quarter of British Muslims believe the 7/7 London bombings were justified, and one in three want to live under Sharia law. And those kinds of headlines have helped galvanize grass-roots opposition to the mega-mosque project. Councilor Craig, who lives in a city with 300 mosques and 500 madrassahs, suggests that Britain not allow any more mosques until Muslims allow churches in Saudi Arabia. Craig said, 'Why should the Saudis pay for a mosque in the UK when there is not one single church, temple, goodwara, synagogue in Saudi at all?' The spokesman for Tablighi Jamaat, Abdul Khalique, refused an interview request by CBN News. But he told the British press that the mega mosque '.will be something never seen before in this country. It is a mosque for the future, as part of the British landscape.' If the mega-mosque is built, you can be sure of one thing: it will be the symbol for the incredible growth of Islam in Britain and in Western Europe.

4. ISLAM THREATENS CHURCH-STATE SEPARATION

We fought one civil war, and endured centuries of Catholic-Protestant conflict, to establish freedom of religion in this country, but Islam threatens to undo all that, by destroying the basic idea of religion being a person’s private business.

124&id=8039&t=Islam+challenges+European+view+of+private+religion

The growth of Islam in Europe is challenging deeply-held notions that faith is a private matter which should be banished from public life, a prominent sociologist of religion has told a gathering of European Christian leaders. ‘We ignore the presence of Islam at our peril,’ Professor Grace Davie of the University of Exeter in Britain told leaders from Europe's main Christian traditions at a 15-18 February meeting in Wittenberg in Germany.

‘This is a catalyst for a much more profound change in the religious landscape of Europe.’ Recent controversies such as those about the wearing of the Muslim headscarf by school students in France, or the publication of cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad in Danish newspapers, were cases in point, noted Davie, professor of sociology at Exeter university and director of its centre for European studies. ‘The presence of Islam is a catalyst that has reopened issues that Europeans thought were closed,’ Davie said on 16 February. ‘You cannot privatise Islam.

We have seen that.’ But she said Christian churches had a major task in helping to find ways to deal with such public expression of religion. Davie was presenting the results of recent research* on the place of religion in Europe, in which she wrote about the controversy over the cartoons: ‘The lack of comprehension on both sides of this affair, together with an unwillingness to compromise, led alarmingly fast to dangerous confrontations, both in Europe and beyond.’

The notion that religion should be banished from public life - and particularly from the state and from the education system - was widespread in Europe, Davie noted. But in part due to the presence of Islam, religion was increasingly likely to penetrate the public sphere in Europe, a tendency being encouraged by the ever more obvious presence of religion in the modern global order. However, this was ‘probably more of a problem for the secular elite than the Christian churches’, Davie suggested in her comments in Wittenberg.

She said, ‘We need to grasp how to deal with religion in the political sphere and here Christian churches have a huge contribution to make.’ The Wittenberg meeting is being organized by the Council of European (Roman Catholic) Bishops' Conferences (CCEE) and the Conference of European Churches (CEC), which groups most Anglican, Protestant and Orthodox churches in Europe. It is one of a series of events that will culminate in September in the Romanian city of Sibiu at the Third European Ecumenical Assembly, which will gather several thousand people from Europe's main Christian traditions.

5. MUSLIMS FORCING DISCRIMINATION AGAINST 'INFIDELS' IN UK

http://www.bloggernews.net/14627

I wonder how long and how hard it was for the UK to outlaw institutional discrimination in their country. It took our country a civil war and 100 years of moral indignation that eventually lead to amendments to our Constitution and the Civil Rights Act of the 1960s. Now in service to the rule of multiculturalism, the UK seems it’s perfectly legal to give one sector of their society the power to discriminate against others. I would be correct in assuming that 50 years ago, if their was a rule against white people swimming with black people, the British citizens would rise up and protest en mass accusing that government run entity of discrimination and bigotry. Well, times have change sin the UK and discrimination is the order of the day. In this case – non-Muslims swimming with Muslims.

The Daily Mail reports: When Lee Williams saw a parent-and-toddler session advertised at his local pool, he thought it was the perfect chance to teach his young daughter to swim. Arriving at the leisure centre already in her swimming costume, two-year-old Darby was desperate to get into the water. But she was left in tears when staff said they were not allowed in the pool because the session was for Muslim women and their children only. But this not the first incident of Muslim discrimination in the UK.

The incident is the latest in a series of rows between local authorities and the public over swimming lessons for ethnic minority groups. In December last year, Croydon Council in South London came under fire for running Muslim-only sessions at one of its leisure centres. Non-Muslim members of Thornton Heath leisure centre were angry that they could not swim during the Muslim-only sessions on Saturdays and Sundays unless they obeyed the strict dress code. For men, this involved wearing shorts which kept the navel hidden and were extended below the knee, while women bathers had to wear a swimming costume which covered their body from the neck down to the ankle. Similarly, Wolverhampton Council and South Lanarkshire local authority have also been criticised for operating women- only swimming for Muslims. This is not multicultural accomodation. What we have here is one of the non-violent forms of jihad – in this case institutional jihad - working towards the establishment of Shariah law in non-Muslim lands and they’re unaware of their willing decent into dhimmitude.

6. BBC A PROPAGANDA TOOL FOR ISLAMIST REGIME IN SOMALIA

Somalia may seem like an obscure problem, but jihad is a global struggle, and the BBC is disturbingly often on the wrong side of it, all over the world.

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2007/02/somalis_charge_that_bbc_a_tool.html

A group of 260 Britons of Somali origin has submitted a letter to the chairman of the BBC's board of governors, charging that the BBC's Somali service has become a ‘tool of propaganda’ of the beseiged Islamist regime in Somalia. Here is an excerpt from their letter, as picked up by the websites Ummah News Links and SomaliNet. '...the people in charge of the Somali Service are neither being impartial, diverse in opinion nor fair in reporting the reality in Somalia. On the contrary, they appear to be taking sides and acting as tools of propaganda for the Islamic Courts Union. 'In our opinion, a group of Islamic Courts Union Supporters within the BBC Somali Service are selectively choosing interviewees to express the opinion of the group that the Islamic Courts Union are the chosen liberators of the Somali people.

Thereby using the good offices of the BBC to campaign for the newly emerged Taliban Style Forces. We know these Forces as the New Somali Warlords who have replaced the previous, now ousted Somali Warlords. The people in charge of the BBC Somali Service is giving the activists of the Islamic Courts Union a platform as a means of propaganda for the purpose of poisoning, brain-washing and recruiting young innocent Somali-Britons and other youth Muslims in Britain, Somalia, and The East African Region, and indeed World-wide. 'As you know, the ousted Somali Warlords killed hundreds of thousands of innocent civilian Somalis. Dismantled our country's physical infrastructure and social fabric, and took Somalia back to the Stone Age. Their activities were then confined in the Somali Territory. But now these Islamic Courts, the New Warlords, are a global threat, fanatic madmen, extremists and fundamentalists who want and plan to wage war on everyone, every religion & faith, including Islam.

They have declared JIHAD without understanding what JIHAD is. They are only using Religion as a means to achieve their goals through the implementation of far more deadly and dangerous hidden agenda. I enclose a DVD Video demonstrating the Islamic Courts Union's ideology and actions since they seized power in Mogadishu and Southern Somalia Regions. What has happened to the Journalism Ethics of the BBC Somali Service? What has happened to the trusted and respected core values of News Broadcasting that has always distinguished the BBC from all the other Broadcasting Media? Are we to understand that the ethics of the BBC Somali Service are now the accepted ethics of the BBC.
