Sharia Northern Ireland: Three men arrested for “anti-Islamic material”

Jun 29, 2017 10:38 am By Robert Spencer

The Belfast Telegraph, sensitive to Islamic sensibilities, does not tell us what this “hate crime” consisted of. If it involved direct incitement to violence, then these men should have been arrested for incitement to violence. But if it consisted solely of criticism of Islam, then the question becomes, would they have been arrested for anti-Christian material? Anti-Jewish material? Or is it a “hate crime” only to criticize Islam in Northern Ireland? If so, when did the U.K. become a Sharia state?

“Three men arrested over reports of anti-Islamic material displayed in Armagh,” Belfast Telegraph, June 29 2017 (thanks to Lookmann):

Three men have been arrested in relation to suspected hate crime in Armagh and Coalisland.

Police conducted searches and arrested three men age 31, 38 and 47.

They have been arrested as a result of an investigation following reports of anti-Islamic material being displayed in the Armagh area, which was reported to Police on June 21, and the discovery of material in Newry on June 21….

    All three infidels probably had a book by Robert Spencer on their bookshelves – or a Qur’an, which arguable is the most anti-Islamic material you can get.

    “If so, when did the U.K. become a Sharia state?”

    If ya hadda put a date on it, probably sometime during Tony Blair’s capitulation (1997-2007). The point of no return – that moment when the make-weight was added – would have been during those critical 10 years. At what precise moment, who’s to say, but 09/11/01 figured into this. You know, the old “not all Muslims are terrorists” got a real jolt of enthusiasm from that event. “And to prove that point we’re gonna let into the UK a whole bunch of Muslims.”

    The old “We’re so open-minded that we’re willing to let our brains fall out.”

      Yes Emilie, I’ve just read Geert Wilders book ‘Marked for Death’ – (a must read for the history of islam), and it was during Tony Blair’s reign of terror that the U.K. was led like a bull to the slaughter into a sharia state.

      So sad to see Ireland, after the many years of in-fighting, to be finally held captive by islamic sharia law! Northern Ireland must be wondering now whether it was right to stay with the U.K. If the leftist U.K. Pro Sharia government is going to enforce this type of thing it might be time to think again?

      Sharia law’s intent is to destroy both Catholics and Protestants. If Southern Ireland clings to the EU you will be under Sharia – and If Northern Ireland clings to the UK you are under Sharia! So you guys need to be unified against islam or die! It’s up to you.

        British culture is dying, German culture is dying, French culture is dying, Italian culture is dying – nobody wants to visit these places anymore due to the influx of islam. These countries no longer have an identity anymore. What’s the point of visiting Paris? You can get mugged and raped in the U.K! (Save yourself the price of an air ticket!) In this respect the New World Order is winning!! Don’t let Irish culture die too! After all – we all need somewhere close to flee to!

        Well said….and Northern Irish Catholics and Protestants know how to fight to the end for their beliefs……they came together to oppose resettlement of Hong Kong citizens to NI and to oppose abortion…..there will be no surrender to Islam!

    The British police are becoming nothing more than Sharia compliancy enforcement tools for the Muslim Brotherhood controlled brit political system. It does not matter which party, they all seem to have been infiltrated and brainwashed by the “Religion of Peace” false narrative.

    When are the brits going to fully awaken to the imminent threat that their freedoms are slipping away into the abyss.

    I suppose a good start has been made with the recent march by football supporters, albeit a march without banners or speakers, and which tried to slide under the islamophobia line by doing no vocal or visual displays that would upset the fragile feelings of their new masters.

      The left media will continually have “serious” endless seizures about Trump’s harsh twitter” attacks”, as not presidential, but shows less concern over “jihad attacks” by the religion of peace that Ob so graciously accommodated by his use of sharia law. Islamic slander law does not allow a believer to expose the doctrine of warfare against non believers to the press, it seized up the critical thinking of the press, as if hypnotized by eloquent rhythmic denial of Ob of the commands to slay non believers that Obama never found it suitable or necessary to release. Trump won due to his knowledge of the threat of Islam (that the rust buckets and deplorable’s read in the Quran) that showed Hillary’s adherence to sharia and a threat to our survival. Imagine the surprise when if the Irish police find a quran and read it, to find the map for their destruction…..after they arrest those who told the truth….

    In the window of his ground floor flat in UK Darren Conway displayed “items that were grossly offensive towards the Muslim faith”. He was arrested for displaying “religiously aggravated hate material” found guilty, and sentenced to A YEAR IN PRISON in March 2012.

    There were concerns that the material was simply standard factual information about Islam and Mohammed. A Freedom of Information request was filed with the Crown Prosecution Service to ascertain what it was that had been criminal. They refused the request on the grounds that it is ‘not in the public interest’.

    The enquirer writes: “This is truly Machiaevellian”.

    He adds,
    “Since the CPS are not even prepared to describe the posters, I suspect that what they really fear is that people may be angry to find out that you can now be imprisoned in the UK for expressing an opinion about Islam based on truth.”

    There are muslims in the Crown Prosecution Service.

      How can anyone know what a “hate” crime is, when they don’t show precedent? It clearly is in everyone’s interest who wants to stay out of jail.

    Interesting… I bought some books from Dr Bill Warner a while back .. anyway the bank kept blocking my account eveytime I bought a book . I bought a few .. I know this is off topic but has anyone else experienced this. I talked to the bank and they didn’t give away much but the guy at the bank said the website I bought from came up as a ” flagged website ” anyway slightly off topic but just thought I would put it out there.

      I guess that’s part of “Sharia banking”.
      Could you disclose the name of your bank – not your local office – so that other clients could test and possibly confirm it?
      Anyhow, you should inform Dr. Bill Warner.

    They invited themselves to my place today .. The simple fact is, if you are defending the Constitution, as you are bound to do (some of us by oath) then defending against mohammadans, publishing details of their doctrine and therefore their plans, exposing their deceit and making unawares folk aware of the mohammadan jihad currently underway, is normal. The polis too are under duty to defend the Crown. If they are not doing this, and instead are harassing you, then it is they who are committing crimes .. Any Common Law test, properly argued would establish that very quickly. You have to conclude therefore that the dozens if not hundreds of Prosecutions against patriots are not only unlawful, but have been improperly defended by Defence Lawyers, who are in turn guilty of crimes.

    I live in Belfast. This is the first I’ve heard of this, it hasn’t been covered much at all. I’m pretty shocked this can happen in Northern Ireland. What constitutes anti Islamic? And how can that be illegal?

    If there was incitement to violence, odds are the linked-to article would have mentioned it.,

    Before long, it will be illegal to report on the terror attacks carried about my moslums.

    As reporting on bombings, stabbings, shootings, being run down by vehicles driven by moslums, and other such crimes will only make moslums look bad…evil actually…and will be a reporting of the truth about islum and moslums. It will not be allowed.

    Recall the lady who had a row of ceramic pigs in her living room window, visible from the street and was made to remove them as they were offensive to moslums….that was a few years ago. Today, she would likely spend time in prison for the *offense.*

    This is major, major news. How has it been covered by the Irish Media? Seems to have had some coverage in the north from Belfast Telegraph, Newsletter, but the main nationalist catholic paper in the north is The Irish News. I could not see its (Irish News) coverage. I placed in google seach “Irish News Three men arrested for “anti-Islamic material” ” I am pressed for time but in two pages of the search nothing came up. This has significance if they have decided not to cover it on two levels 1. the Church angle 2. The Republican Sinn Fein/general leftist level

    Ireland, you let me down. I have Irish ancestry. I thought Ireland would be the last hope in Europe to not bend to Islam. Where are the fighting Irish? I am certain my ancestors would beat the shit out of the Muslims just for a good laugh. Irish men don’t let us down!!!!

        “Brian Hoff”–really, “DefenderofIslam”–wrote:

        There are Irish convert to Islam in Irishland (sic). In El Paso there are Irish moslim (sic).
        ………………………..

        Of course, there is no such place as “Irishland”.

        With the rest, “DefenderofIslam” is just proving that there are other Infidels as brainless as he was himself.

    I don’t recall it being an offence to display anti-IRA material in Northern Ireland during the Troubles when the IRA was running around the sic counties blowing things up and murdering people..

    How is it now an offence to display anti-Muslim material? I am very curious to know what the anti-Muslim material is/was and where it was displayed.

    • Jamescrx says

      A story in the Irish news showed a photo of a window with the rapefugees sticker on it, with muslims not welcome below it. This could be a stock photo though, it doesn’t make clear exactly what the material was. A quick google search shows what the sticker or poster looks like. I still struggle to see how that can possibly be a criminal offence.
