Tariq Ramadan has only just now started claiming that he has multiple sclerosis, just a week after he was denied bail on the rape charges he is facing. How convenient that he would suddenly turn out to be too ill to remain behind bars.
It could be that his team’s failure to impugn the accounts of his accusers has led to this claim as a new strategy. But if he is freed, and presumably fitted out with a custom-made prop wheelchair, will he resume his comfortable life of being lauded and financially enriched by the easy non-Muslim marks who gave him professorships and lecture opportunities all over the West so that he could feed them his smooth deceptions, so skillfully designed to keep them ignorant and complacent about the jihad threat? Or will they, in this #MeToo age, shun the accused rapist despite his latest and — if concocted — most cynical claim yet to coveted victim status?
“Tariq Ramadan is hospitalised in France,” Middle East Eye, February 17, 2018:
Prominent Islamic scholar Tariq Ramadan, who was remanded in custody in France on rape charges earlier in the month, has been hospitalised for treatment of multiple sclerosis, his support group said on Saturday.
The 55-year-old Oxford University professor, who will now undergo an independent medical evaluation to determine if he is to remain in jail before trial, was sent to hospital on Friday night, a source close the case confirmed.
“His state of health is getting worse, particularly since the judges refused to issue a visit permit to his wife and children yesterday,” a person close to Ramadan said on Saturday.
His lawyers said that their client’s condition was “not compatible with detention”, based on an initial medical examination on Tuesday.
Ramadan has written widely on the topic of European Muslims, often encouraging Muslims in the West to take pride in their identity as being European and Muslim and to adopt the culture of their respective countries without reservation, unless specific aspects clearly clash with the teachings of Islam.
He is an author whose books include Islam and the Arab Awakening (2011) and What is a Western/Muslim Individual Today (2015).
Charged with rape and rape of a vulnerable person, Ramadan had been held at the Fleury-Merogis prison near Paris since 2 February.
A court ordered Ramadan be detained ahead of his trial, saying he was a possible flight risk and fearing potential pressure on women who testified anonymously.
The Islamic scholar suffers from multiple sclerosis and has appealed against the French authorities’ decision to keep him in custody, website Swissinfo.ch reported.
A Paris appeals court ordered the medical evaluation on Thursday and postponed its ruling on his detention until 22 February, after Ramadan was taken to the hearing in an ambulance.
The arrest of the influential academic – a regular on TV debates with more than two million Facebook followers – has rocked the French Muslim community….
The married father of four has rejected the accusations, saying he is the victim of a smear campaign.

It’s interesting to note that symptoms of multiple sclerosis can be followed by quiet periods of disease remission that can last months or even years. I’m expecting something near to a complete miraculous cure once he is released.
Donovan Nuera says
It is true MS has relapsing and remitting periods but it would be uncommon for someone to have their first attack after age 45. Has it been noted that he has had MS before? Even if his MRI shows a smattering of plaques in his brain or cord, it doesn’t mean he won’t try to feign excessive weakness or ataxia or fatigue or embellish his neurological exam. A good neurologist can easily tease out factitious findings on exam. They have doctors in prisons so I don’t know why it would be a burden to him; it’s not like he is going to be assaulted by fellow jihadist inmates.

Many victims of cousin marriage have congenital conditions due to 50 generations of inbreeding. They are ‘victims’ of normative Islamic endogamy.
mortimer says
The REAL disease is in the BRAIN of Tariq Ramadan… it is called Koran 4.24 … Allah DECREES that Muslim males have the RIGHT to rape MARRIED INFIDEL CAPTIVES. It is allowed for MUSLIM MALES to CAPTURE and RAPE ALL infidel women.
This is the REAL DISEASE in the BRAIN of Tariq Ramadan … ISLAM IS A RAPE CULT and Tariq Ramadan LOVES this crime.
Westman says
His lawyers said that their client’s condition was “not compatible with detention”
Really? As much as Daniel Pearl and Kayla Meuller?
Salome says
MS is a terrible condition. It can be horribly debilitating. Nobody I’ve met with it, however, has ever exhibited signs of aggravation of the condition just by reason of not getting what he or she wanted.

Then that settles the matter. Thank you Salome.
Saleem Smith says
Tariq Ramadan is highly skilled at the fine art of Islamic deception.
Tariq Ramadan is likely now calling upon his Muslim Brotherhood buddies/folks to bail him out of jail.
Such is the eternal obedience to Islamic theology and law.
We ex-Muslims living with Islam’s formal and informal penalty for apostasy know that Mohammedanism is a terribly dangerous and harmful fraud.
Here is a recent statement from a group of Bangladeshi apostates living in the UK explaining the reasons why they have abandoned Islam:
“One who claims to be a messenger of God is expected to live a saintly life. He must not be given to lust, he must not be a sexual pervert, and he must not be a rapist, a highway robber, a war criminal, a mass murderer or an assassin. One who claims to be a messenger of God must have a superior character. He must stand above the vices of the people of his time. Yet Muhammad’s life is that of a gangster godfather. He raided merchant caravans, looted innocent people, massacred entire male populations and enslaved the women and children. He raped the women captured in war after killing their husbands and told his followers that it is okay to have sex with their captives (Qur’an 33:50). He assassinated those who criticized him and executed them when he came to power and became de facto despot of Arabia. Muhammad was bereft of human compassion. He was an obsessed man with his dreams of grandiosity and could not forgive those who stood in his way…
The statement continues,
Muhammad was a narcissist, like Hitler, Saddam or Stalin. He was astute and knew how to manipulate people, but his emotional intelligence was less evolved than that of a 6-year-old child. He simply could not feel the pain of others. He brutally massacred thousands of innocent people and pillaged their wealth. His ambitions were big and as a narcissist he honestly believed he is entitled to do as he pleased and commit all sorts of crimes and his evil deeds are justified.”
StellaSaidSo says
Good post, Saleem. And congratulations to you and your fellow apostates on leaving Islam, a decision that so often requires great courage and sacrifice. It must be very depressing for you to see the UK descend into chaos as a result of its ignorance as to the true nature of Mohammed and his vile ‘religion’. Stay safe!
Saleem Smith says
Yeah thanks bud

I want to see the subcortical and white matter plaques that will show up in his brain by MRI if he has MS. Otherwise:
OFF TO JAIL!!
Donovan Nuera says
His victims have to live their injuries…both physical and psychological. If he thinks his “MS” will get worse in prison, well he shoulda thought about that before committing crimes! If his EDSS <8 he should go to prison.
mortimer says
Don, gamblers roll the dice. Jihadists are gamblers.
ploome says
how convenient
StellaSaidSo says
Most unlikely. Ramadan he has few friends among the French political class. Besides, he has been in a cell since he was charged. Feigning illness is a common ploy, and that Ramadan should resort to it is no surprise.
Roderick MacUalraig says
He’s a POS. The guiilotine for him.
StellaSaidSo says
Tariq Ramadan’s wife claims that he has suffered from MS for some time, but I have found no other ‘evidence’ to suggest that he has a chronic illness.
As Ramadan est un manipulateur de grand calibre, an independent medical assessment is essential to establish his health status.
In case anyone was wondering, Tariq Ramadan does not have French citizenship.
StellaSaidSo says
Quelle surprise.
Prophesy says
Could it be one of those “Pre-MS” MS conditions that miraculously resolves once the favours have been handed out?
It’s along the lines of the Ernest Saunders “pre-senile dementia” defence in the Guinness trials..
“Ernest Walter Saunders (born 21 October 1935) is a British former business manager, best known as one of the “Guinness Four”, a group of businessmen who attempted fraudulently to manipulate the share price of the Guinness company. He was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment, but released after 10 months as he was believed to be suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, which is incurable. He subsequently made a full recovery.”

Prophesy says
Pinochet also benefitted from a severe medical condition that only allowed him another six years of life.
“After having been placed under house arrest in Britain in October 1998 and initiating a judicial and public relations battle, the latter run by Thatcherite political operative Patrick Robertson,[110] he was eventually released in March 2000 on medical grounds by the Home Secretary Jack Straw without facing trial.”

As for Megrahi, poor dear….
“On 14 August, lawyers representing Megrahi announced that he had applied to the High Court in Edinburgh two days previously to withdraw his second appeal, and that his condition had “taken a significant turn for the worse”.[66] On 19 August 2009, it was divulged that MacAskill had reached a decision on the bomber’s fate to be announced the following day.[67] The following day, MacAskill granted his release on compassionate grounds, stating that Megrahi was in the final stages of terminal prostate cancer and was expected to die within three months.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Release_of_Abdelbaset_al-Megrahi
They meant three years….Oopsies….
Prophesy says
However, as per The Journal of Correctional Health Care (2017):
“It might reasonably be assumed that old, frail prisoners would be released at the very end of life and allowed to die outside prison. However, although compassionate release is possible, stringent criteria have to be met before it can be granted. Not only does the prisoner usually have to be considered to be less than 3 months away from death (which can be very difficult to predict) but also the nature of his offense is taken into consideration; thus, release on compassionate grounds is not considered appropriate for most offenders.”

I guess compassion is reserved for those with the higher kill-rate.

One of the many possible symptoms of multiple sclerosis is loss of memory. That’d be convenient in a rape trial. Rape? What rape? Who are these women? I’ve never seen them before!

Do we detect a little ‘ISLAMOPHOBIA’ going on here??
E P Campbell says
‘ISLAMOPHOBIA?:So is the White Hijab Day in Iran. Incidentally, Carol, Islamic apologist, the term ‘Islamophobia’ was an artificial construct, pseudo-psychological accusation, invented by the Ayatollah Khomeini’s totalitarian regime, with one of the worst torture prisons in the world in Teheran, Evin, to stifle mass dissent and protests against forcibly having to wear the hijab, from 1980 onwards. ‘Islamophobia’ – attempting to silence honest debate or constructive criticism of Islam since 1979.
Now, carried as a meaningless dog whistle by all political goons of the Muslim Brotherhood and its worldwide affiliates in over 130 Islamic terrorist organisations, to promote Muslim ‘victimhood’.
Google: destroyed Marawi, Philippines, in 2017, with 1,000 dead jihadis, and 165 opposing state soldiers, its scores of headless Christians in the streets, to find the DEAD victims of your virtue signalling ‘Islamophobia’. Islamophobia is thrown at people who know too much about the real Islam, such as HUDUD. http://english.alarabiya.net/en/features/2017/07/30/Evin-Prison-The-Iranian-regime-s-notorious-torture-factory-.html

He can serve jail time even if he truly has multiple sclerosis. The jail doctors can administer the medications. He and his team were just attempting to fool the westerners one more time. Enough with his lies that he was feeding the west , enough stupid lectures and fake academia

He is seriously ill – he’s got *muslimin hypocritium*: a hellish disease that rots your brains.

If he’s sick then he shouldn’t be allowed to spread his contagion to other inmates, should he? Isolate him and isolate the contagion that he carries. No dawa for any of his pathologies.
