Baroness Warsi says Muslim prejudice seen as normal

Prejudice against Muslims has "passed the dinner-table test" and become socially acceptable in the UK, a senior Conservative is to say.

Baroness Warsi, co-chairman of the Tory Party, will warn against dividing Muslims into moderates and extremists.

The baroness, the first Muslim woman to serve in the cabinet, will say such labels fuel misunderstanding.She will use a speech at Leicester University to accuse the media of superficial discussion of Islam.

Baroness Warsi will say anti-Muslim prejudice is now seen by many Britons as normal and uncontroversial, and she will use her position to fight an "ongoing battle against bigotry".

What have we learned from her?

1. Criticisng certain inhumane, totalitarian, supremacist claims and content in Islam, is "prejudice".

2. Differing between moderate and radical people is discrimination.

3. Warsi does not know the surves carried out in Britain over the past 5 years or so that show that up to one third of the younger Muslim population support violence if it needed to enforce Sharia and Islam in Britain.

4. Warsi ignores that Muslim communities systematically reject to cooperate with the police to identify extremists in their ranks, and abuse the silly goodwillingness of the British police (that since some time is demanded by rules to tell them in advance when they want to arrest a Muslim suspect or extremist ) to help the wanted person "disappear", by warning him. Why The Muslim community is so special that it is the only group in Britain that gets warned in advance of what the law enforcement authorities plan, is beyond me. They must be very very special indeed, or what?

In time it may have an impact on Muslim societies to take over key parts of a parliamentary level, but it's not just the UK, if this is a continuing trend or merely a transitional mode

Yes, it is not just a British thing, unfortunately. We have Turkish politicians in Germany, too, and for the most they also try to whitewash abiut Islam and try to reach deals with German socieity to give it special treatement and special role, at the cost of our own identity, of course. And like in Britain, and criticism of Islam gets overkill-brandmarked as racism and "Islamophobia" (a term that first was thought out by the Saudis to battle against resistance against Islam in Europe, and later certain political circles in the West, mostly from the left side, and after them: the media, picked up the term enthusiastically). The Saudis are the biggest mnoney-giver to the Isamic mission in Europe. Their institutions often are breeding grounds of Wahabitism and pure Islam, translating into fundamentalism. The King Fahd academy in Germany is under constant surveillance by the office for the protection of the constitution, a German mix of Secret Service and FBI. The office demands since years to shut down the academy and rates it as a major risk. Politicians as usual claim to know it better.

"Islamophobia" that word has been inflation, and the risk of extremists within the Islamic ramifications of increasing opposition to the rules themselves, leading to an increased vigilance in politics and the judiciary

People should ask themselves some questions:

why is not Hindus, Jews, Christians, Buddhists, atheists, claiming special rioghts for themselves inside our communities, but in general: most of Muslim groups?

why is integration no big deal for Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, atheists migrants, but for Muslims?

Why were Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, atheist migrants not overrepresented in several categories of crime statistics (before this discmrination became forb idden to hide the unwanted truth), but Muslim migrants are?

Why are not Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, atheist migrants overrepresented in statistics on depending on social wellfare, success in school and education, job succees, but Muslims are?

How could one argue that Islam and the culture and mentality it transports has nothing to do with it, when statistics show us that time and again it is the distinctive criterion? Not only statistics, but the experiences of social workers? Streetworkers? Police? Teachers?

Why has the taregt of mobbing at schools, and school violence, shifted, why now say teachers that blackmailing, ripping off, school crime, offending, is being commited for the most from oriental gangs against native Germans?

Is this the only reaction to the problem we are capable to give: that in the media we now hide any reference to the Muslim background of a person when there is a negative report on - just a "person" ? That in Cologne the police now may ask the public if somebody has seen this suspect - but refuses to identify the suspect in background as well as in looks becasue that would tell people they are being asked for somebody from the Middle East, or a Muslim? I remember that I noted this phenomenon in the English media, too. If you read newspapers carefully, you will find both in England and Germany more and more reports where there is just the talk of a "person", a "male", a "suspect", and later somehow it gets leaked and learned that it was somebody from the Middle East region or a Muslim. Whereas a native German suspect, would get fully identified and described in looks precisely. Isn't that discrimination of native Germans?
