Who is responsible for this? Those who charged the foes of jihad terror and those who called attention to the Muslim rape gangs with “racism” and “bigotry” — people like Nick Lowles and Matthew Collins of Hope Not Hate, Fiyaz Mughal of Tell Mama, and their allies and Useful Idiots. They have created an environment in which people are too intimidated to resist jihad terror and Islamic supremacism — they know they’ll be defamed as a “racist” if they do, and suffer professional and personal harm.
“I was intimidated and branded a racist for bringing Rochdale abuse gang to justice, says prosecutor,” by Nazir Afzal, Daily Mail, August 31, 2014 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):
As the Chief Crown Prosecutor for the North West, I led the teams that brought the so-called Rochdale Grooming Gang to justice in 2012 for abusing up to 47 girls.
My work saw me go up against not only the offenders, but those who tried to intimidate me for bringing abusers before the courts. They said I had given racists a stick with which to beat minorities – I said our communities should be carrying their own sticks.
Far-Right extremists targeted me, too. I had made these British-Asian men pay for abusing vulnerable girls – but that damaged the racists’ narrative that all minorities are the same. To their hateful demands for me to be ‘sacked and deported’, I gave the simple response: I was born in Birmingham.
Nazir Afzal, Chief Crown Prosecutor for the North West, pictured, said he does not care about the race of a child abuser as long as they are stopped and brought to justice. ‘Ethnicity is an issue not the issue’
The network of prosecutors I lead has tackled grooming and child sexual abuse in England and Wales for the past two years. We are advising about hundreds of suspects while, at the same time, protecting hundreds of victims. In one operation alone by Greater Manchester Police there are 20 potential victims and 180 suspects.
The problem we identified in Rochdale was that justice was prevented from being delivered because the credibility of the young victims was questioned.
If we don’t believe a young, vulnerable girl, who will? The authorities and communities appeared to have turned a blind eye to the abuse of its children.
The ethnicity of many of the abusers in Rotherham, Rochdale and other places is a matter of fact – they were from Pakistani or South Asian backgrounds.
I do not care where they come from as long as they are stopped and brought to justice. I told Parliament in 2012 that the ethnicity of the perpetrators was an issue, not the issue. It was not the abusers’ race that defined them, but their attitude to women and girls. They targeted girls because of their vulnerability, and failings by those who should have safeguarded them.
There is no excuse for what the abusers did, nor is there any excuse for the authorities to choose not to believe and protect them.
Responsibility for the abuse begins and ends with the criminals who commit these acts. There is, however, an individual and collective duty to report what you suspect and to act to protect these vulnerable youngsters.
Yet now the Asian communities have woken up to the criminals in their midst. They recognise they can do more to stop this offending.
There is, sadly, no community where women and girls are not at risk from sexual predators. The CPS has prosecuted people from over 25 countries, excluding those from outside the EU, for sexual offences and trafficking in the past three years. Abusers are of all nationalities, ethnicities and ages, though the vast majority are white British males.
Tragically, another girl will have been abused in the time it has taken to read this article. Other children will have been targeted for future abuse.
But we and others have learnt from the past. We cannot shy away from tackling child sexual abuse regardless of where it occurs and by whom. Multicultural sensitivity is no excuse for our blindness.
I believe it is time for the criminals to be in fear.

UK: Prosecutor “branded a racist” for prosecuting Muslim rape gang
……………………………..
God, the insanity—as though protecting young girls from rape were “racist”.
And note that this grotesque accusation has been thrown around even though Nazir Afzal is *himself* Muslim.
In fact, in a December 2012 interview with the Guardian he said, “‘white professionals’ oversensitivity to political correctness and fear of appearing racist may well have contributed to justice being stalled”.
He’s not wrong.
And it’s not just “politically correct” law enforcement, either, but Muslim and leftist groups posed to pounce at the slightest hint of anyone opposing Muslim savagery.
I suppose it’s fine to “Tell Mama” if you think you can make a case for “Islamophobia” or “racism”, but if you are a vulnerable girl being gang raped by members of the “religion of peace”, you’d better keep your mouth shut…
Huck Folder says
…unless your mouth is full of islamist schmuck.
kikorikid says
Yes, It is far-far past time for “Islamist Criminality” to Fear.
Their “Islamic-Supremacist” outlook, “Hubris Codified”
allows them to ignore the Laws of whatever land they are
in the process of Conquering. This is what you get. Rapes and
murders that are not answered because Authorities are
locked in the Fascist chains of Political Correctness and
have become Dhimmis in their own Land.
pongidae rex says
‘Multicultural sensitivity’ has degenerated into magical thinking and brainwashing that has rendered people incapable of arriving at logical conclusions based upon facts.
Bridget Ames says
Could you imagine someone justifying Nazis by calling us racist against Germans? I hope this man continues his work even with all the persecution he must endure. I think it would be perfectly justified to expel these rapist and human traffickers from the country.
jihad watcher says
Here is an idea for a great movie epic. The title of the film would be called: “CALIPHATE”. The plot, Europe set in the year 2150, Muslims now outnumber the rest of the population and have taken control.
They impose Sharia law on all, Christians, atheists and anyone else who disobeys their rule are arrested, imprisoned and executed. Woman have been reduced to sex and domestic slaves as education and the vote are forbidden to them. The welfare and economic system has long since collapsed and science and freethinking are banned under threat of death. Illiteracy rates and unemployment have risen to unprecedented levels.
The Islamic dark ages have descended: no freedom, poverty, ignorance and illiteracy, with a corrupt and hypocritical Muslim elite ruling. (sounds like the Middle-East does it not?)
The highest rating TV show is the nightly execution of infidels and individuals who have been condemned by Sharia law. No one must attack Islam or question Islamic law.
Native Europeans are now second class citizens, living in closed off communities and they live in great fear and oppression.
This is the background to story of one European family’s struggle to survive, they have lost their culture , their wealth, their freedom and their land. They look back with intense regret and disgust of the legacy that the liberal elites left Europe, with their suicidal immigration polices. “Naive fools!”: the father cries to his son in terrible frustration and sadness in one scene when they examine books of Europe written two centuries ago and see how great it WAS and what they have LOST.
They are desperate to escape this horror, North and South America are still free, the USA has watched with regret as it has seen Europe fall and has learned not to make the same mistakes. The climax of the story is the family making their escape from this terror, their journey of escape dangerous with many twists and turns but they do succeed in the end, making it to the FREEZONE.
You have some sort of happy ending, that’s how Hollywood makes money.
Now would Hollywood make such a film, not in a million years!!!
Gerald says
You do not have to wait until 2150 AD. The scenes and narrative for the movie you are suggesting are already happening to Christians all over the world. Their churches are frequently destroyed and young Christian girls are kidnapped and forcibly converted to Islam and many of this families make desperate attempts to flee to the West. Good examples will be Egypt and Pakistan. The Obowma administration will not allow these persecuted Christians to immigrate to the U.S but will allow hundreds of thousands of Somalis, Pakistanis and possibly including hundreds of jihadists into the country. You may want to check out this site for the persecution of Christians.

Kepha says
Worst of all, in the film, the very aged, very grouchy, and uber-jaded Uncle Kepha is in charge of US Immigration. While generous enough to religious minorities from the Middle East, Sub-Saharan Christians, and Asians (at least if they meet legal criteria), and has been known to order otherwise law-abiding Latin American undocumented folks with credible fears of harm in their home countries to be smacked on the wrist, fined heavily, and made to fill out sheaves of paper (especially if there are minor children involved), he has persuaded the serving POTUS to order that all ICE personnel to screen out any independent Marxists, LGBT’s, and feminists who land, and force them to swim back to Europe (maybe the family described might be granted asylum, though).
Bamaguje says
It would be a box office hit… if the dhimmi PC police allow it to be screened.
Vapourking says
That’s an idea worth pursuing , being set in the future it’s automatically deemed fictional. Simply changing the name of the religion would be a stroke of genius and only attract more attention. The message wouldn’t be lost with a name change either, ok peeps do we know any writers producers who’d take up the challenge and produce probably the most thought provoking movie of all time.
Beagle says
2150?! Make it 2035. Let the little Mohammeds, Muhammads, and so on, grow up in their European capitols and see what happens.
Most of that is well underway now and the US is following only slightly behind. Mark Steyn should write Not Even America as a sequel to America Alone.

The Muslim and leftist narrative is that Muslim men are ALWAYS the victim, even when they rape and kill
Cranky says
Nazir Afzal said “Far-Right extremists targeted me, too. I had made these British-Asian men pay for abusing vulnerable girls – but that damaged the racists’ narrative that all minorities are the same. To their hateful demands for me to be ‘sacked and deported.”
Well that’s a damn lie. By saying that Nazir Afzal is merely sucking up to the neo-Marxist Left and the British political elite that so determinably defends Islam and Muslims.
John C. Barile says
I think there’s another way to read this–and his “Far-Right extremists” remark rubs me the wrong way, too–as such: that some nativist Brits would presume Nazir Afzar couldn’t be trusted to perform his job fearlessly and aggressively, that he might defer to his ethnic kin; that he wasn’t responsible enough to successfully prosecute other “South Asians.” Knowing that there are bigots in any ethnicity–and knowing blanket prejudice is ultimately unfounded, false–I suspect Nazir is speaking truthfully.
Kepha says
I had a good friend who was Malaysian-born ethnic Chinese Christian. He moved to Britain to pursue studies, stayed, and was persuaded to emigrate to Canada when he barely escaped assault or worse by a skinhead mob.
I’m with Mr. Barile on this one. Until I see evidence to the contrary, I’ll give Nazir Afzul the benefit of the doubt. Certainly if I were in his prosecutorial shoes and there was the case of some Evangelical clergyman or elder who had been sexually abusing the young, I’d have no qualms about prosecuting to the full extent of the law–although I’ll also own that my religion takes a very dim view of sexual perversion to begin with. I further strongly suspect that Nazir Afzul’s comments on white professionals’ fears about being branded “racists” may have been said with just the slightest hint of disgust and/or exasperation.
Cranky says
So what is is about his white critics that leads Nazir Afzul and anyone else to assume they are ‘Right wing’. Because they ARE white? That would be particularly ironic considering that Islam itself is misogynistic, paedophilic, and an ultra-fascist ideology that denies the right to free critical thought and speech. Yet according to the British Establishment, neo-Marxist ‘liberals’ and anyone else who subscribes to the Cultural Marxist agenda, Islam is the complete opposite.
Angemon says
So he got flak from two mutually exclusive PoV each claiming he was making a case for the other one. That’s.. something.
And where did their attitude came from? Where did they learned it was OK to abuse women and children from outside their community?
What if they were taught that it was OK to abuse children outside their community? Are there not laws to punish those who spur that kind of behaviour, even if they take no part in it?
abad says
I have said this elsewhere, but the media NEEDS to stop calling these UK Muslims British. They are not British and can never be British.
Second, criminals deserve to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Yes, the world knows Muslims are devoid of any morality which is why they torture, lie, rape, and kill non-Muslims. Satan is their God. What the UK should do is deport every single Muslim from their soil.
bernie says
While I tend to agree with you, it’s difficult to do that if they are British-born. It’s easier to do that with naturalized immigrants to Britain, however.
Ayatrollah says
Any time someone inhibits a Muslim following his religion it is racist and hateful. Since England is “darl harb”, or house of war, if a pious believer can catch a western women he can enjoy her as Allah allows.
That Is really filthy.

Islam is evil
fair_dinkum says
and these pakistani ‘men’ are racist to the extreme .. the victims, the trade, is in white girls. white girls they can commit atrocities with…
in saudi arabia, ‘housekeepers’ (often as well as slave/sex slave) are often moslams but they arent arabic..and are abused..so thats racist , no?
and ive heard from 1st hand sources that they (pakistani moslams) that they do the same (rape and beat, usually) to helpless men, given the chance..and thats not even sexist..its purely racist.
their ‘culture’ reads like a timeline of atrocities, dont tell me for instance that
saudis dont see africans as inferior..they took so many millions as slaves..along with slavs and celts.
further: 1) The two major divisions of Islam (Sunni and Shiite) consider each other heretics, which is what is happening in Iraq
2) Both divisions you have more sub divisions who also hate each other
3) For political reasons which is what happened in Lebanon, Jordan, Algeria, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan
4) It all started when Muhammad said: “the Jews are divided into 71 sects, the Christians are divided into 72 sects, and the Muslims will get divided into 73 sects. ALL of these sects are going to Hell except one, the sect that I am on and that of my true followers.”
(http://israelpalestine-speedy.blogspot.com.au/2010/09/why-muslims-hate-each-other.html)
and racism isnt part of any of this?
the bedouin ..there are at least 70 tribes? even tribal hatred is catered for.
the whole cult is one of hate. hatred. they can let their hatred for women turn into a sick pack of perverts, sporadically erupting into brutally stoning a willful woman to death. or hanging them in iran. or beheading in syria. statistically in pakistan though, it is usually pack rape then hanging or stoning. or burning with petrol.
hatred in islam is endemic. how full of hate must you be to kill yourself whilst killing others..?
any of the above and more.
i wonder if anything like that will come up in the trials?
bet it isnt even a factor.
damn islam
Nina says
There are some good Muslims who don’t want to harm the British people or their values but those good Muslims get harassment and abuse from the leftist and the media. Mr Afzal is a good man he should be honoured for his hard work and honesty.

“Ethnicity is an issue, not the issue.” And then he speaks directly about the ideology.
What a fantastic affirmation of Western values from this man. He is not in denial, but justice must be blind.
Is there hope for the UK?

Basically, what his critics are saying is that being a racist is worse than being a pedophile.

………………..
I believe what Nazir Afzal is falsely claiming here is that this “has nothing to do with Islam”…
Colonel says
His Muslim spirit lied when he said, “Far-Right extremists targeted me, too. I had made these British-Asian men pay for abusing vulnerable girls – but that damaged the racists’ narrative that all minorities are the same. To their hateful demands for me to be ‘sacked and deported’, I gave the simple response: I was born in Birmingham.”
Remember many counter jihadists and anti-appeasment protesters are called Far Right extremists including Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, Melanie Phillips, Douglas Murray and a lot others brave to stand against Islamofascism.
Ellie Fant says
You are absolutely correct. And what thiscountry needs is a huge swing back to the values idiots call “right-wing”.
Ellie Fant says
Yes these ignorant louts who run Hope Not Hate and the ANL are responsible for a lot of harm. Their constant whinging about “racism” and “islamophobia” makes criminals out of any decent person who won’t put up with Muslim gangs raping underage girls. Another vile outlet is Political Scrapbook, a left-wing website that churns out venom and intolerance towards whites, the English, Christians, and anybody with any sense of national pride. They attack with aggression and abuse silencing the slightest genuine criticism of Islam, which is a horrible cult, oppressing women, mutilating girls, anti-science, preaching that kaffirs must be converted, enslaved or killed. Everyting that happened in Rotherham was legal according to Sharia law. Get these people out of here.
