Sharia UK: 19-year-old arrested for video showing him burning Qur’an

Dec 30, 2014 11:29 am By Robert Spencer

burnt quranWould this teenager have been arrested for burning the Bible? Of course not. But the Cameron government is desperate to appease Islamic supremacists — apparently even to the point of adopting Sharia laws governing the treatment of the Qur’an. I am not in favor of burning any book, but I am also in favor of the freedom of expression, which is an absolutely non-negotiable feature of any free society — and one that the British are throwing away with both hands. Britain is not only dying; it is stupid. It is not only rapidly descending into Sharia, chaos, and civil war (the latter two because a small number of people there, after being hounded and smeared by their own governing authorities for opposing Islamization, will ultimately stand resisting it), but it is making itself ridiculous as it does so. It is embarrassing to watch Britain today, in the same way as it would be embarrassing to watch a senile old man attempt to sing and dance while under the delusion that he was still young, handsome and vigorous. It is impossible to respect modern Britain.

“19-year-old released on bail after alleged Koran-burning video,” Yorkshire Standard, December 29, 2014:

A 19-year-old from Leeds, West Yorkshire, who was arrested in connection with an offensive video he posted on a social media website has been released on bail.

A video, which was shared to the Yorkshire Standard, showed a man ripping apart an English translation of the Koran with his teeth and putting it in the toilet before burning it.

The police arrested the suspect on 27 December after people raised concerns for the safety of the person who had posted the video up following a number of public comments made in response to it.

People also called the police complaining about the offensive nature of the video.

The suspect was arrested from an address in Beeston, Leeds, on suspicion of a racially or religiously aggravated public order offence.

Superintendent Mabs Hussain, of Leeds District Police, said: “Due to the nature of this offence, any decision to charge must be taken by the Director of Public Prosecutions. We are currently preparing an advice file which we will be submitting to the Crown Prosecution Service in due course. In the meantime the arrested man has been released on bail to an alternative location.

“We are aware of strong feelings expressed by a number of people in response to this video. We would again urge people to allow this investigation to run its course and remind members of the public that we will take robust action against anyone who acts outside of the law.”

The Yorkshire Standard was notified by various members of the public about the video.

The site also received links to the video and it had been shared at least over 1,000 times and had over 100 comments – some included death threats.

It was removed from the account a day after the arrest.

The police were contacted by the Yorkshire Standard for a clarification on whether the man did rip the Koran, put it in a toilet and burn it. The police refused to confirm or go into detail. The video was deemed as an offensive video.

    This was taken from the comments section in the Yorkshire Standard and in fact was the most latest post:

    “This is well out of order n he should be punished for what he did. And our religion Islam teaches to care n respect every human n religions n respect the law n the country where you live. So my humble request to the west yorkshire police n courts by the law he should be punished to teach him the lesson. People like him they bring hateruge with the community’s. And I would like to say he is not a human he is a worse than a animal. And until he is not get any kind of a worse punishment we are not going to stay quite. Once again I would request to the west yorkshire police n courts by the law he should be punished. Our hearts have been disturbed because we love our religion Islam and our holy book Quran and we respect all the religion’s. And if no action taken ASAP regarding to this matter then we will take it further.”

      Thank you, hameshuga, for showing us this “typical” comment

      O, how my blood starts boiling when I read such comments. What a censor (s)he is! I should have the courage myself, but I haven’t yet, but I hope many more will burn quran’s, “on youtube” just to spite both such censoring Muslims and such political correct “neutrals”. Of course not on the streets or on workplaces. It remains important that people can, if they want, remain aloof, being able to NOT see “insults to their religion”. But otherwise, it is SO WRONG to protect religions, no matter how much some people love them.

      Oh, I know, the Muslims will say that “they also will not insult other religions” but a/ This does not matter, because all MAY, so they too. and b/ oh, they do plenty of insulting other religions themselves, at least a part of them did and does that. And that is OK, as long as both sides are allowed to do it. But such commenters want Muslims to have the advantages, but still deny same advantages to others. It shows their unconscious supremacism, I think.

    So this is a punishable offense but signs saying “BRITISH POLICE GO TO HELL” is perfectly legal. I’d like to hear in explicit terms just why this is. The British people ought to be very worried.

    All this so selfish egotists like David Cameron can fancy himself a Mahatma Gandhi of congeniality. His obsession with being seen as Mr. Wonderful and progressive by a community who sends vastly greater numbers of troops to Islamic State than to the British military is the height of cowardice and selfishness. I would be frightened to be lead by someone with such internalized self-hatred. In an analogy, he is like someone ordering bottle after bottle of expensive wine at a dinner in order to impress everyone whilst someone else is paying the bill; here the “someone else” would be the British people who bear the brunt of his self-serving policies– you can find them in Luton, Rotherham, Birmingham, London, etc.

      Strange, that, as a youth in the UK. I was once fined for ‘behaviour liable to lead to discord between the police and the public’ (whistling the theme-tune from a buzz TV serial about car-based cops at a fat twerp in uniform dripping sweat uphill on a bicycle, then telling him he was a fat [expletive deleted] in front of a lot of giggling schoolgirls). So how does that compare? The magistrate told me I was ‘a menace to society’. That was 1965 – times change, huh?

      But thanks for the picture – quite made my day. They should medicate and soften the pages of English-language translations of the Koran to make them better bog-paper, or at least treat them with sodium chlorate to make them more efficient firelighters.

      Michael, this is true if you are quoting from a Qur’an in translation—Mslims will claim that the words are not from a real Qur’an, and that nothing you says counts unless you are a scholar of Classical Arabic, and even then it doesn’t count because you are not Muslim.

      But if someone burns a Qur’an, or a Qur’an in translation, or a book of Hadiths, or a Qur’anic quote or two, or a business card belonging to some guy named Muhammed, then it is a *Qur’an burning*, and the perpetrator must be severely punished—preferably murdered.

      Now do you understand, filthy Infidel?

      What is wrong with the lefties is that they adhere to a philosophy that is not based on reality. In fact, they do not believe there is a real reality out there. They believe that one makes one’s own reality. Reality to them is what one imagines it to be. As a result, with such delusion, reality sooner or later catches up and pounds the lefties in the head with a figurative hammer. The moral of the story: You may ignore reality for a time, but not for too long.

    I 100% agree with most of this article and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your efforts in fighting the Islamisation of the west.

    My one complaint is that lately I have noticed that when you talk about the actions of our undemocratic corrupt government that ignores the wishes of the people you tend to lump the whole population of our country within your comments. Whilst I understand you are angry that our corrupt government has banned you from our country for no reason your insults and often lyrical attacks against the “British” rather than the British government or police etc are getting quite insulting. I have seen it in more than one article.

    Unless you admit to prejudging the whole British race by the actions of the few?

    • Robert Spencer says

      Dec 30, 2014 at 12:34 pm

      Gary:

      I am referring to the government, yes, and to the British people who keep that government in power, and do not force its fall, and are much more worried about “racism” than about jihad terror and Islamic supremacism. I am referring to the Britons who would prefer to sit passively and placidly by as their country is conquered and Islamized, rather than do anything that might be considered “racist.”

      In other words, I am referring to the overwhelming majority of the British people, but no, not to “the whole British race.”

      • Charli Main says

        Dec 30, 2014 at 3:13 pm

        Robert,
        I get the crux of your post. However, I feel that efforts should be made to get Britain’s non Muslim communities on board, in the war against the Islamisation of Britain.
        I can’t understand why the Indians, Sikhs, Chinese et al are passively sitting on the fence, in the face of the relentless Islamisation of Britain. The Muslims have these folk in their gun sights,just as much as ” white Christians”. Hardly a day passes, without some atrocity committed in their original homeland, by the Muslims.
        These folk have been on the receiving end of Muslim brutality for over a 1000 years, so what makes them think the Muslims will treat them any differently in Britain. ??

        • William says

          Dec 31, 2014 at 12:39 am

          They don’t get the same treatment because of the importance Britain had in the history of freedom from the absolute ruler (Magna Carta), the establishment of representative government (parliament), freedom of speech laws, and the importance of Britain to the birth of the United States of America, to name a few reasons. No offense intended for the French, Swedes, and the Danes, but Britain contributed more in those areas.

          Paul Weston clearly explains why Britain is worth defending. Those are the reasons why I am shocked by what is happening to freedom in Britain and why Britain should be the focus of our attention in the fight to preserve liberty in that tiny Island nation.

          If Robert Spencer did not care so much about the fate of the British people, he would not continue to fight for them. His posting this appalling story is a small part of that.

          In my opinion, Britons should be more concerned about this sort of persecution done in the name of Islam than about any perceived snide tone from Mr. Spencer himself.

          I respond in the same manner when some horrendous bit of dhimmitude is committed by authorities in the US.

          I’m sorry Graven, I respect you but I beg to differ. Robert Spencer is not fighting for us, he is slapping his chops at the mess our country is in. Like I said earlier, he singles no other country out for this sort of berating or Schadenfreude. It is, unfortunately, a weakness that will put many visitors here from the UK off. Which is a shame as I spend quite a lot of time getting them to come here.
          I don’t think he’ll lose a lot of sleep over it though as I do think he genuinely dislikes the UK based on some of the statements I’ve seen.
          Fair enough I suppose; it’s his blog after all.

      Good point, Michael. Muslims also have no compunction about destroying Qur’ans when they blow up “other sect” Mosques—but if a “filthy Infidel” so much as touches a Qur’an without wearing gloves, it represents a great “desecration”.

      Muslims’ sensitive “respect” for the vile Qur’an is pretty situational.

Reason 2 : The book fulminates against all religions other than islam . But : “The suspect was arrested from an address in Beeston , Leeds , ON SUSPICION OF A RACIALLY OR RELIGIOUSLY AGGRAVATED PUBLIC ORDER DEFENCE “. They should not arrest the book-burner , THEY SHOULD ARREST THE BOOK !!! ( sounds a bit silly maybe ) . Furthermore : Anybody reading , quoting from the book in public should be arrested and charged on the above grounds . Printing , publicizing and distribution of this book should be forbidden aswell .

      ……………………………….

      I take your point, Ernie—the Qur’an is an incredibly vile book.

      But I’ve read the Qur’an in public—the first time I read it, I read it on the bus and in cafes as much as I read it at home. I was able to speak to a number of people about the threat of Islam who asked about my reading it.

      If the Qur’an *were* banned, it wouldn’t prevent Muslims from reading it, who would just flout the law—but it *would* prevent law-abiding Infidels from learning what that vicious text teaches.

      Robert Spencer could be arrested, as his “Blogging the Qur’an could be seen as “publicizing” or “distributing” the text.

      Instead of banning the Qur’an, I would like to see all Infidels become aware of what it contains—and just what we face from Islam.

    Pretty soon, we will read in the newspapers in the late and not-so-great anymore Britain a similar report with a minor alteration such as:

    Superintendent Hussain, of Leeds District Police, said: “Due to the nature of this offence, any decision to charge must be taken by the Director of Public Vice and Virtue.”

    That scenario is only a matter of a short period of time. The question is not if, but when.

    According to how things are shaping up, I do not anticipate any civil war. I assume that a civil war would require two opposing sides taking part in combat. One side fighting and the other cowering is not civil war, but surrender. It appears to me that the native Britons will be as submissive as they are currently.

    What would it take to impel them to a civil war? That is what I’d like to know. Would it be:

    Loss of freedom of speech? That is already gone. You can’t say anything critical of Islam or its adherents without breaking some law.

    Loss of freedom of religion? John Lennon lured many to imagine a world without religion, with nothing to kill or die for. Are we there yet? Well, the practice of Christianity is being abandoned at such a rate that probably in one or two more generations, there will be only a tiny number of them. Consequently, few will need be punished by their Mohammedan overlords for being Christians.

    Public stoning of adulteresses? Hand and foot amputations for theft? They have not arrived yet.

    Be-headings for blasphemy? Well, they already have be-headings.

    Yet, we in the U.S. should not be too hard on the Brits. We are not far behind; be-heading of infidels is here too.

    • Myxlplik says

      Dec 30, 2014 at 2:43 pm

      I disagree, and the proof is in the article itself. “19 year old arrested for burning a Quran”. Europe is a pressure cooker, every time there are Jihad attacks from their Muslim “countrymen” the heat goes up under the pot. Then, someone acts out, like this kid, and as a response the government cranks down on the only relief valve western society has as an alternative to mob violence, which is freedom of expression. Ever the cycle goes on, we in the west are conditioned against mob violence in order to live in a civil society, but the mechanism which allows this in the first place is freedom of conscious.

      I don’t know exactly what is going to happen, but historically this sort of thing doesn’t end well…. its really, really, bad.

  15. eib says

    Dec 30, 2014 at 2:04 pm

    Burning the koran is a waste of time. Better to read it, know it, and use its profane verses to discredit the claims of the ummah. The writings Muslims deem holy carry the truth about their history and aspirations in the West. While the truth frees the Westerner, it destroys Islam. That is why lying is considered holy in the profane religion of peace.

Astonishingly, it’s due to Western capitulators who value their own immediate popularity over posterity’s dignity– if that’s not a hallmark of what the people despise about politicians and politics then I don’t know what is.

      David Cameron– you are a despicable coward and I only hope you’ll be taught a merciless lessen before you’re through. To betray us like this for your own self aggrandizement is outrageous and enraging. I don’t know if he knows the depths of fury he is stoking. The days of leaders spitting in the mouths of the people and being met with a smile are long past. You, David Cameron, are playing a very dangerous game.

Quran is a manual of not only murder but creating chaos, destruction, mass genocide and must not only be burned but all these fanatics must be deported as soon as you can before the time allows. TIME Will not be on your side. If you knew the plans of fanatics and even common Muslim emigrant you will feel like being stabbed from all sides.

      I am glad you are an ex-Muslim, and also wish you to retain your vigilance, and yes, at least a part of Muslims does have totalitarian, patriarchal intentions, bent as they are on subjugating “the world”. and is convinced of and conducting vehement anti-Western propaganda, but …

      They are going to fail. In fact I like to “warn” them; oh, despite all your power, how stupid of you to try to let a 7th century obsolete religion win! How unaware you seem to be of other powerful entities capable of seizing power; if not global, at least substantial power. Take a company like google, so savvy with modern technology, look at the possible potential of Artificial Intelligence (of which Stephen Hawking, considered a genius) warned.

      Muslims, can you be sure to win? Should you not worry to be eclipsed by technological dangers from other totalitarians??? Isn’t your best chance and bet with us committed democrats??? Just asking.

    i have only realised what is going on through the superb work of Robert Spencer, in Glasgow the landscape has completely changed, we are swamped with Somalis, Africans, Pakistani’s since around 2003, the numbers are growing alarmingly. They’ve been handed housing for their burgeoning broods and they are supremely confident. The Scottish government are on a suicidal path but seem totally unaware or wilful of this immigration – goat herders what use are they to a progressive society but the red carpet is rolled nonetheless. The government has done a sterling job with the multi culti pap and equality and diversity brainwashing no-one will speak out, you would be arrested in a minute for speaking out and your own people would betray you which is the hardest thing to stomach. Every where you go there’s burkas with the pram plus 4 weans – I now understand Scotland is doomed along with England and Europe. Like cancer once you know you’ve got it it’s already too late. They’re all peaceful now but once the numbers get to the right level they’ll start their crap. While Scotland parties the muslims are plotting and planning this will end in tears. Anyway, my thanks to Robert for explaining so much in his amiable way because I would have been another dhimmi.

      These days a diagnosis of cancer *is not* a death sentence. Many people with cancer choose to fight rather than roll over, and many go into remission and live many years more cancer-free.

      Islam *is* a cancer, but it has been successfully cut out of societies before—Spain, Portugal, southern France, southern Italy, Sicily, Greece, and most of the Balkans all ousted Islam, and are all the better for it. And they were all further gone than Britain today—under full Islamic oppression.

    In 2007, Daniel Pipes published a brilliant piece titled “Europe’s Stark Options”

    http://www.danielpipes.org/4323/europes-stark-options

    In it, he laid out the three possible scenarios for Europe (and the UK). They were, essentially,

    1. Islamization
    2. Civil war
    3. Peaceful integration of Muslims into liberal Western society

    He concluded that we are in such uncharted historical territory, that it was impossible to predict. But one thing seemed certain: given how things were going, option 3 was the least likely. Almost eight years later, and that piece still rings more true than ever. I think it’s still too hard to say what will happen, but at this point I just don’t see how it can be anything other than 1 or 2.

          Superintendent Mabs Hussain, member of the National Association of MOSLEM Police? Over 2,000 of them in the UK fifth column! This is his job:

          “Responsibile [sic] for monitoring, analysing and evaluating Divisional and Departmental Performance including identifying and disseminating examples of good practice to ensure Policing Plan priorities and targets are met.”

          I wonder what the ‘quota’ for dhimmi arrests is?

          “A 19-year-old man arrested in connection with an ‘offensive’ video ‘posted’ on a social media website has tonight been released on bail.”

          Funny, I don’t see that word ALLEGED anywhere. I believe Major Hassan’s ‘WORKPLACE VIOLENCE’ was witnessed by many, but still the offences have to be proved in court…

          “WE (MOSLEMS) appreciate and understand the distress this video HAS caused”

          Is that not a PREJUDICIAL statement? Next, a comment from the source, for Aisha:

          http://www.yorkshirestandard.co.uk/news/19-year-old-released-on-bail-after-alleged-koran-burning-video-9133/

          “With all due respect, no crime has been committed here.
          ”According to the Imams and all the scholars it is unlawful to […] translate it (the Quran) in languages other than Arabic.” (Al-Shatbee Fee Mabaahith Min Uloomil Quran pg51, see also Jawaahir al-Fiqh vol1 pg97)
          Any and All Korans that have been printed in any language other than Arabic are not held as the Holy Koran.
          In other words, a Koran that is not written in Arabic is an interpretation of the Koran and is not considered Holy
          In the event that something has been lost in translation here, I will reiterate:
          What was burned here was an ‘English Interpretation’ and NOT an Arabic version of of the Koran. ergo, no Koran was burnt.”

    My only regret is I have no copy of the Quran to burn for mankind.
    I wouldn’t have the book in the house because it radiates evil.
    The Quran in the computer is evil too but it is defused and weakened by internet pornography. There are far more porn sites on the net than Islamo sites, which shows which one is more popular. So one way to fight Islam, is more and better porn. Throw porn at them until they weaken and crumble.
    Whenever porn and sharia conflict, porn trumps…Some would say that the Quran is also a book of porn…the smutty kind, but it is lacking modern technology like electronic devices with bells and whistles. So, don’t send bombs to mosques, instead send porn and offers of porn…Then stand back and watch for the orgasmic reactions…

      Not only that, Muslims will point to widespread pornography as evidence of decadence of non-Muslim societies and how more Islam is the solution! They have already been doing it…… and it will only increase!

    It is unlikely that man will be charged, but his name will be taken down, he will be fingerprinted and photographed, and then grilled to see if he has the dreaded “Right Wing connecions”.

    But the message of the state is that anyone opposing Jihad within, will be punished in one form or other.

    This policy is not just in the UK but right across the Western world, and it has a strategic purpose. This has been apparant for the last 8 years.

    Basically it has to do with waging war right across the ME, a new Crusade, while vehemently denying that it is so. Obviously waging such a war under its true motive will not be wise from the strategic, political and internal point of view.

    The domestic repercussions are that dissent that Islam is the RoP, will be squashed. All Jihad attacks in the West will be deemed as “Nothing to do with Islam”, and the Jihadi will deemed as a mentally disturbed individual.

    This is uniform right across the Western world, and has been for the last 10 years, that it can hardly be coincidental.

    Things will be clearer in the next 30 to 40 years. By then, I foresee a mass exodus away from Islam and to Christianity, as the entire ME, and possibly the wnile Muslim world is reduced to penury and chaos. Muslims, brought up in the idea that Islam will be victorious and wealthy, will see quite the opposite, and in the words of bin Laden, who knew his people, will opt for the stronger horse.

    The global problem that has been vexing this planet for the last 1400 years, will be gone. Historians will view 9/11 as the one fatal mistake made by political Islam.

      I was about to write that a person couldn’t be required to make Bail without being charged. Then I read the system in action there. As I read it, the Bail system in England and Wales is distinctly different from that in the US and Canada in that there are three (3) types of “Bail”:

      1. Police Bail, where the Police set a Bail amount, without the person having been charged with any criminal act, allegedly to assure that the person returns to the Police Station at a certain time/date; and,

      2. Police to Court Bail, where it appears the Police charge the person and then set Bail to allegedly assure the person will appear in Court at the appropriate time and date; and,

      3. Court Bail where a person has been charged and had a Court appearance and the Court sets an amount to allegedly assure that the person returns to further hearings and/or trial.

      Needless to say I find this system to grant far too much power to the Police with apparently not a whole lot of accountability. But since the English (and Welsh?) have submitted to near continuous government surveillance in many areas of the country, I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that they accord their police such power.

      On British TV there is a reality TV programme called Police Interceptors. One of the featured policemen is a muslim officer who appears to be perfectly good at his job and fit. Following a chase of a stolen car the driver and his passenger “decamped” the vehicle and ran off over fields. The passenger was quickly caught. The muslim officer, with cover from a helicopter, chased the driver. He, the policeman, gave up chasing and retched. He explained, on camera, that it was Ramadan and hence he had neither eaten nor drank since dawn. The chase was on a summer’s day afternoon. He clearly, during ramadan, was not fit to do his job – for a whole month. I would have been sacked for such a self-imposed inability.

    When I filled in the complaint, I made the point he had in fact committed no crime, and that in enforcing ‘hate speech’ laws (which I presume this is what they are attempting to convict him for), the police were acting contrary to justice, and were allowing themselves to be the tools of whoever wanted to cause trouble for someone else.

        I’ve seen how complaints departments work, and chances are that the complaint will be processed by a low level clerk.

        The police are doing this because certain members of the police force think that there is a particular law that they can use. It’s the law that has to be changed, and parliament makes the laws.

          I believe Mirren is right, though—if police get *enough* complaints, it is bound to make a difference. Writing to ones MP would probably be a good idea, as well.

    According to the newspaper report linked to, it seems it wasn’t even the Koran he burned, but an explanatory book with a translation of the Koran:

    The Koran burned by the suspect was, or was similar to The Meaning of the Glorious Qur’an written by M.M. Pickthall.

    If this is correct, how even more ridiculous that he should be arrested for burning it. Of course, most people would defend his right to burn any book if he so chooses, whoever decides to be offended by it.

    I wonder how many of the people making death threats against the poster have been arrested by the police? (Of course, I don’t wonder at all, I damn well know the answer: zero).

    From your comments it is clear that you are mostly passive and do not consider this an act of war.
    This is not a problem of Social order but a criminal mafia taking over UK and EU.
    This is not an accidental timing that suddenly some Muslims got organized. This whole thing was planned in 80s and later in 90s when millions of Muslims began emigrating in the garb of economic and political disparity etc. This is not only economic but a very well organized plan of fanatic heads to expand into
    all over EU and slowly take charge. This is how all invasions started in India, Central Asia, Iran, Afghanistan & earlier in other lands of Middle East. Islamic ideology is no ideology but a monster mafia that allows “muslims” to abuse settled civilizations and take over their lands, women and kill all men unless they submit.
    THERE MUST BE a mass BURNING Of qurans in every single city’s main square in a fully organized manner and if that is not possible a mass protest must be held every week demanding to deport all Muslims and clean your cities. If not what is going to happen in next few years will be very violent and will be a repeat of what happened to Iran & India long ago.

    There is no law in Britain that prohibits the burning of books. But under the new Sharia compliant Britain it is an offense punishable by prison to burn the Koran. Mind you, one can burn Shakespeare or Churchill volumes at any time without the authorities blnking an eye.

    Sharia UK: 19-year-old arrested for video showing him burning Qur’an
    ……………………………….

    How can this *possibly* be a crime in a free nation?

    More:

    Superintendent Mabs Hussain, of Leeds District Police…
    ……………………………….

    My grandfather was a police superintendent in the West Midlands during a saner era.

    The barbarians are not merely within the gates now, we are pretending that they are interested in *guarding* those gates. Suicidal madness…

    More:

    “Due to the nature of this offence, any decision to charge must be taken by the Director of Public Prosecutions. We are currently preparing an advice file which we will be submitting to the Crown Prosecution Service in due course. In the meantime the arrested man has been released on bail to an alternative location.
    ……………………………….

    So this poor guy can’t even go home? And what could he *possibly* be charged with? Presumably, the Qur’an was his own property.

    More:

    “We are aware of strong feelings expressed by a number of people in response to this video. We would again urge people to allow this investigation to run its course and remind members of the public that we will take robust action against anyone who acts outside of the law.”
    ……………………………….

    But how is destroying your own property and posting a video of it on YouTube “acting outside the law”? It is not.

    More:

    The site also received links to the video and it had been shared at least over 1,000 times and had over 100 comments – some included death threats.
    ……………………………….

    Are they going to track down the *real* criminals—those who made death threats? I wouldn’t count on it…

    More:

    The video was deemed as an offensive video.
    ……………………………….

    Maybe it was. Does that also make it criminal? Perhaps in today’s Britain, it does….

    Guys, can you stop hammering Muslims? I mean, really :”… a book that permits men to beat women and puts women under men..” Where in the Quran is that even written? All of you “educated” people are talking as if you have studied Islam or the Quran. How ironic. It’s weird that if any Muslim starts specifically picking out events where a Non – Muslim did something offensive in the name of his/her religion against Islam just to hammer another religion , everyone would make a big deal out of it. Just because you guys tend to argue in defense of your religion in a different manner, doesn’t mean you don’t. Muslims tend to consider it a big deal if anything happens to the Quran as it is the word of God in Islam. What would it take to stop “educated” people like yourselves to stop generalizing? Is that what your education teaches you? I think not. All of you are being purely hypocritical and I don’t think that’s considered ok in any manner 🙂

      I do wish a significant percentage of all those “moderate” Muslims some people keep bringing up as examples of why Islam really is “The Religion of Peace” (TM) would make an appearance on the world stage to prove that they exist. It would even be better if they rose up and stopped the alleged “Islamist Radicals” from continuing to denigrate Islam by their barbarous actions.

      But that hasn’t happened, and isn’t likely to happen. Those Muslims who do nothing to oppose the so-called “Islamist Radicals” not only approve of their actions, they are complicit in those heinous actions.

    • Angemon says

      Jan 1, 2015 at 6:03 pm

      The islamic apologist, Swag, posted:

      “Guys, can you stop hammering Muslims?”

      No one is “hammering” muslims, although that seems to be the only way of getting the notions of “equality of all people before the law”, “human rights” or “freedom of speech” into the average muslim brain. Criticism of islam and muslims will continue until they start behaving like civilized 21st century human beings.

      “ I mean, really :”… a book that permits men to beat women and puts women under men..” Where in the Quran is that even written?”

      Beat them – quran 4:34:

      “Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband’s] absence what Allah would have them guard. But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance – [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them.”

      Women are below men – quran 2:228

      “Divorced women remain in waiting for three periods, and it is not lawful for them to conceal what Allah has created in their wombs if they believe in Allah and the Last Day. And their husbands have more right to take them back in this [period] if they want reconciliation. And due to the wives is similar to what is expected of them, according to what is reasonable. But the men have a degree over them [in responsibility and authority].”

      “All of you “educated” people are talking as if you have studied Islam or the Quran. How ironic.”

      The irony here is that you don’t know what the quran says, as it is proved by asking where in the quran it says it’s ok to beat women. IN any case, the quran claims to be crystal clear – why would one need to “study” it as opposed to simply read it (none of which you seems to have done)?

      More from Swag:

      “It’s weird that if any Muslim starts specifically picking out events where a Non – Muslim did something offensive in the name of his/her religion against Islam just to hammer another religion , everyone would make a big deal out of it.”

      No, it’s not weird, it’s standard islamic behaviour. You see, the difference between, foe example, Jihad Watch and a muslim “specifically picking out events where a Non – Muslim did something offensive in the name of his/her religion” is that JW articles point out how muslims are acting according to orthodox islam, while someone doing something and claiming to do it for its religion doesn’t mean said someone is actually acting upon the tenets of their religion.

      “ Muslims tend to consider it a big deal if anything happens to the Quran as it is the word of God in Islam.”

      I’m sure that having a filthy kuffar destroying the word of allah is very damaging to the psyche of muslims – they’re taught that the kuffar are filthy creatures, inferior to muslims in every way, and yet they can defile the word of allah without allah lifting a finger to stop or punish them. Obviously, when faced with such a rude awakening about the truthfulness of islam, they can’t help but to throw a tantrum, like the spoiled children they were groomed to be by islamic education.

      “What would it take to stop “educated” people like yourselves to stop generalizing?”

      There’s no such thing as “generalizing”. Not when islam says “muslims are expected to act such and such”, and muslims act such and such.

      ……………………………………..

      Noting Jihad attacks on Infidels and creeping Shari’ah law—as in this story—constitutes “hammering Muslims”? In that case, you must consider this mainstream Muslim behavior, which is actually quite damning.

      More:

      I mean, really :”… a book that permits men to beat women and puts women under men..” Where in the Quran is that even written?
      ……………………………………..

      Angemon cites where this is written in the Qur’an, chapter and verse. There are other passages in the Qur’an that condone polygamy, pedophilia, and the keeping of sex slaves. Perhaps *you* are the one who should read the Qur’an before you hold forth here.

      More:

      All of you “educated” people are talking as if you have studied Islam or the Quran. How ironic.
      ……………………………………..

      What could possibly be “ironic” about that? Many of us here *have* read the Qur’an—and the Hadith, and the Sira, and classic books of commentary and interpretation such as the Reliance of the Traveler. The question, I believe, is why you haven’t?

      More:

      It’s weird that if any Muslim starts specifically picking out events where a Non – Muslim did something offensive in the name of his/her religion against Islam just to hammer another religion , everyone would make a big deal out of it.
      ……………………………………..

      As Angemon notes, that is *exactly* what Muslims do on a regular basis. Under Islam, *any* criticism of that creed is forbidden, and many victims—Muslim and non-Muslim—languish in prison in Dar-al-Islam on blasphemy charges, often facing the death penalty. Many more are simply murdered by Muslim mobs on often spurious charges of “burning a Qur’an” or “insulting Muhammed”.

      More:

      Just because you guys tend to argue in defense of your religion in a different manner, doesn’t mean you don’t.
      ……………………………………..

      The above sentence is not even cogent. But many people are not arguing in defense of any religion here—there are many posters at Jihad Watch who are atheist or agnostic.

      As for the defense of any religion, are you aware that any non-Muslim—religious or not—is treated as a second-class citizen *at best* under Islam? They are not allowed to openly worship, and churches are regularly attacked on holidays such as Christmas. Here are just a handful of stories from this year where Muslims violently targeted Christians at Christmas:

      “Iran raids house church on Christmas, arrests nine Christians”

      http://www.jihadwatch.org/2014/12/iran-raids-house-church-on-christmas-arrests-nine-christians

      “Germany: Muslims storm church on Christmas Eve, shout ‘shit Christians’”

      http://www.jihadwatch.org/2014/12/germany-muslims-storm-church-on-christmas-eve-shout-shit-christians

      “Islamic State blows up church on the day after Christmas”

      http://www.jihadwatch.org/2014/12/islamic-state-blows-up-church-on-the-day-after-christmas

      “Germany: Man stabbed in head and back for shouting “Merry Christmas” in Muslim-dominated area”

      http://www.jihadwatch.org/2014/12/germany-man-stabbed-in-head-and-back-for-shouting-merry-christmas-in-muslim-dominated-area

      There are, of course, many more.

      More:

      Muslims tend to consider it a big deal if anything happens to the Quran as it is the word of God in Islam.
      ……………………………………..

      Are you suggesting that since Muslims find *any* criticism or even questioning of their faith Haram, that we never so much as utter a critical word?: Devout Muslims would like to see just that—dhimmis under Shari’ah law are not allowed to openly criticize their own victimizing under Islam at all.

      More:

      What would it take to stop “educated” people like yourselves to stop generalizing? Is that what your education teaches you? I think not. All of you are being purely hypocritical and I don’t think that’s considered ok in any manner
      ……………………………………..

      There is not much “generalizing” here—most of these, such as in the above story, are very specific cases. Jews and Christians are used to having their religions questioned—even when they find some aspect of this offensive, they do not respond violently. Would that this were true of Islam.

      Moreover, Jews and Christians—and Hindus and Buddhists and many other people of faith—feel free to question their own faith. Not so under Islam, which has the death penalty for apostasy.

      As of this writing, there have been 24,736 Jihad terror attacks just since 9/11. Clearly, there are problems with Islam. Here at Jihad Watch we believe in free speech, and that such problems should be openly discussed—even if pious Muslims and their useful idiots try to crush such discussion.

    The Koran and Hadith have been spreading hatred and preaching genocide against all non-Muslims.
    Surely the spreading of such material and teaching it should be considered punishable a public order offence, rather the elimination thereof.
