Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

London: 3-year-old rushed to emergency surgery following botched FGM operation

Aug 18, 2018 5:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

A three-year-old girl was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery after a botched female genital mutilation procedure in Sadiq Khan’s London.

This little girl is an innocent victim of a cultural and religious ideology. It is tragic that Western “diversity” sycophants have no compassion for the victims of this ideology. Instead, they are apologists for it, and hide their own fears of confronting it under a veil of being broadminded, tolerant and welcoming.

Islamic jurisprudence sanctions female genital mutilation (cf. Umdat al-Salik e4.3).

A 42-year-old man and a 36-year-old woman, both understood to be of African background, are due in court to be charged with FGM offences after the incident was investigated by the Metropolitan Police Child Abuse and Sexual Offences Command….The Africans are accused of having “excised, infibulated or otherwise mutilated the whole or a part of a girl’s labia minora and clitoris”, as well as offences related to “extreme pornography” — namely images of child abuse and bestiality.

FGM is a crime in the UK, yet despite “thousands upon thousands” of victims, authorities have not managed to secure a single conviction, and there have been very few prosecutions. It is great news that this pair has been charged, but now let’s see whether justice will be served in their prosecution.

“3-year-old Needed Emergency Surgery After Botched Female Genital Mutilation Operation in London,” by Jack Montgomery, Breitbart, August 17, 2018:

A three-year-old girl was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery after a botched female genital mutilation procedure in Sadiq Khan’s London.
A 42-year-old man and a 36-year-old woman, both understood to be of African background, are due in court to be charged with FGM offences after the incident was investigated by the Metropolitan Police Child Abuse and Sexual Offences Command, according to the London Evening Standard.

The Africans are accused of having “excised, infibulated or otherwise mutilated the whole or a part of a girl’s labia minora and clitoris”, as well as offences related to “extreme pornography” — namely images of child abuse and bestiality.

Female genital mutilation has been a crime since 1985 in the United Kingdom, but in over three decades the authorities have yet to secure a single conviction and mounted only a tiny number of unsuccessful prosecutions, despite the National Health Service (NHS) logging thousands upon thousands of victims.

It has often been suggested that this is because it is difficult to secure convictions without the testimony of the victims, who are often reluctant to speak against the perpetrators — usually African-background parents — but this is contradicted by the record of the French authorities, who face a similar phenomenon but have mounted hundreds of successful prosecutions…..

    Dear Christine

    Actually all these hadiths are weak but let us assume they are not.

    1. Pagan Arab males were NOT circumcised.

    2. Muhammad the pagan was NOT circumcised

    3. There is not a single hadith mentioning that ANY of Muhammad’s wives nor Aisha were circumcised

    4. All the Pagan Arabs who submitted to Muhammad’s Islam were NOT circumcised no matter how many time Muhammad declared his ‘religion’ as fulfilling that of Abraham

    5. Not once in the Quran is the act of circumcision mentioned or mandated

    6. Muslim MALES use circumcision as a WEAPON against their females and later interpretations are FALSE

    I challenge any Muslim o prove me wrong

      Fantastic list of facts. VERY useful.

      The hadiths are one the GREATEST weaknesses of Islam. The hadiths are extremely absurd in many cases, contracting rational thought and science. The chains of hearsay are proved to be spurious.

      Half or more of Islamic doctrines come from the hadiths and they are mainly at odds with human rights and human dignity. Many of the practices Muslims are forced to observe are extremely absurd… such as their bathroom routines! Total foolishness to anyone with a mind.

      There are actually several references to FGM in the Hadiths.

    It would be a huge step forward if the British government would just start enforcing its own laws. I fail to see how expecting people to obey British laws while in Britain can be considered racist by any stretch of the imagination.

      FGM is just another sign of these Moslem “refugees” refusal to assimilate into British society.

      And if the UK was smart they’d be deporting these Moslems back to the Middle East.

  6. mortimer says

    Aug 18, 2018 at 8:31 am

    The punishments for such mutilation should be greater up to and including expulsion and removal of residency and/or citizenship.

    Many of Islam’s practices such as slavery, jihad, jizzya-extortion, dhimmi laws are ILLEGAL in the UK.

    FGM is also illegal. If Muslim practices are mostly illegal in the UK, then Muslims will eventually realize they are out of touch with reality.

    • IQ al Rassooli says

      Aug 18, 2018 at 3:34 pm

      Dear mortimer

      Actually Muslims are NOT out of touch with reality because they are succeeding in implementing their despicable Sharia in the UK

      It is most of the British People who are utterly disconnected from Facts and Reality by NOT supporting sane and incredibly courageous leaders such as Tommy Robinson and others

      The elites in the Western European countries are the CRIMINALS for allowing millions of Military Age Muslim males INVADING their countries with complete disregard for the future welfare of their citizens

      I have been addressing these subjects for 14 years hoping “We the People” of Europe to wake up and overthrow their leftist Politically Correct imbecile leaders. So far only a few hundreds of thousands are aware while millions of others don’t give a damn for their future generations

      Mortimer,

      It is only by man made Kafir laws that these things are illegal. Under the Allah made Sharia they are encouraged or even mandatory. So what is a fully paid up muslim to do? Obey the man made laws originating from hated and “evil” kafir, or submit to the beauty of the religion perfected for the Muslims by their god, Allah? He is going to seek his “perfection” and discover the error of his ways later!

        But Allah is man-made, cobbled together from bits of other comtemporary religions by a malicious and calculating Dark Age criminal warlord posing as a ‘prophet’ in order to dupe his victims into submission and further his poltical.imperialist ambitions.

    In Asia, Bohora community practice this FGM, due to their backward religious spiritual leader His Holiness who is forcefully insisting to retain tradition of FGM

    Bohora community has well educated members, it is prosperous community,yet they have to carry out FGM.

    African countries are also following the blind faith and carry out FGM

  8. Renate says

    Aug 18, 2018 at 10:30 am

    One other thing about FGM is that it sounds like major surgery to me, yet they have mostly a bunch of quacks doing it. There must be some law on the books that states that you have to be a surgeon to preform surgery. People these days must have become so open-minded that their brains fell out.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 18, 2018 at 11:50 pm

      We do not want to have Western surgeons mutilating children, either.

      • Renate says

        Aug 19, 2018 at 12:09 am

        Well I’m thinking that not only FGM itself, is on the books as a crime, but so would preforming surgery when one is not a surgeon be a crime, so there are two ways to charge perpetrators right there, and in particular, if one was charged with the second crime, “religion” doesn’t even figure into that, so no one could say anyone was being “culturally insensitive” by charging someone with it.

        • Renate says

          Aug 19, 2018 at 12:22 am

          I know there were a couple of actual doctors in the U.S. who were charged with doing this, but generally, I think just about anyone is allowed to carry out the cutting in these communities and medical training or proper medical equipment is not given a second thought. In the U.K., they have “cutting parties”. (The fun never stops with Islam).

  9. Yokel says

    Aug 18, 2018 at 1:13 pm

    I wonder …

    A bit of history: It is reported in some circles that some 50% or more of British males were routinely circumcised until 1948. Then the health services were nationalised by Labour (as part of their great 1948 nationalisation spree) to form the National Health Service (NHS) (our national religion it seems). Almost immediately the NHS banned routine infant male circumcision as medically unnecessary, with GPs telling enquirers “We don’t do that any more”. And so it remained, until the flood of botched private male circumcisions amongst the “Asian” muslim immigrants and consequent demand for free NHS emergency surgery became too great to manage. And so in “sensitive” areas male circumcision was and is offered by the NHS to parents of immigrant background male babies.

    Therefore: The complete and utter cynic in me suggests that this case will be the opening salvo in a campaign to get the NHS similarly to offer FGM to the parents of immigrant (muslim) background female babies, regardless of the fact that it is illegal. It would be justified as a “harm reduction” measure, in the same way that in some areas druggies are offered a “safe place” to “shoot up” with NHS supplied clean needles despite the whole thing being illegal but equally unenforced by the police.

    I seriously hope I am wrong, but …

    • Renate says

      Aug 18, 2018 at 2:59 pm

      I thought there was a medical case to be made for male circumcision, but I don’t think there is any medical reason for “female circumcision” at all. I hope you’re wrong, too.

      Male Circumcision Reduces Risk of Genital Herpes and HPV Infection, but Not Syphilis

      https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/male-circumcision-reduces-risk-genital-herpes-hpv-infection-not-syphilis

      anyway, seems a better idea than having mommy retract the foreskin for 5-6 years for Johnny to clean the smegma

      • Yokel says

        Aug 18, 2018 at 3:36 pm

        I am aware of the arguments in favour of, and against, male circumcision. They are not relevant to my point, and I would be very grateful if we could leave that argument to another place/day.

        Instead my point is about the politicising of health decisions. Male circumcision was banned in 1948, and it stayed banned until someone started bleating about “harm reduction” because amateur circumcisers were proving by their results that they were indeed amateurs, and then it was allowed to selected “at risk” groups.

        FGM was banned in Britain in 1985. These parents and other amateur mutilators are proving by their results that they are indeed amateurs. My dread is that the NHS will take on the FGM role to do the job “safely” for “at risk” groups and thereby reduce the harm to little girls.

        Enforcing the law would completely prevent all the harm to little girls. But I fear that is too great an ask for any or all of the British NHS, Children’s Social Services, Police, Government. Wouldn’t help “community cohesion”.

    • Carol the 1st says

      Aug 19, 2018 at 3:26 pm

      Yokel..There can be valid reasons for snipping off the foreskin (definitely not the glans) of a male – especially in hot, dry climates. If that decision is made it is least painful in childhood and most apt to be done. Some men have been extremely sorry in adulthood that this was not done for them.

      But to try to conflate male circumcision with having the absolute stupidity and hubris as adults to totally and unnecessarily de-clitorize a female infant or child is absolutely disgusting in this day and age.

      • Carol the 1st says

        Aug 19, 2018 at 3:43 pm

        In the eagerness of some to pander to supposed “religious” and “community cohesion” and “sensibilities”, let us not forget what else was uncovered in that home – images of “extreme pornography” — namely images of child abuse and bestiality.

      • Yokel says

        Aug 19, 2018 at 5:19 pm

        @ Carol the 1st
        I refer you to my comment above (Yokel says Aug 18, 2018 at 3:36 pm) and ask that any/all discussion about the wisdom or otherwise of male circumcision be held in another place on another day, not here and not now. It is not relevant to my point.

        My point is that the politicking in favour of the victim class, the victim class that trumps all other victim classes, will cause definite and absolute prohibitions to be modified in the cause of “harm reduction”. Given the apparent complicity of the decision making classes in the apparent hiding of muslim rape gangs until they could be hidden no more, I fear that they could possibly make further “harm reduction” decisions that are not at all in the interests of the little girls concerned.

    Aug 19, 2018 at 10:57 am

    I can’t believe that the UK police actually arrested someone for this beastly behavior. They are so in love with Islam and their Shariah May that they usually follow like sheep to the slaughter. And slaughter it will be when there are enough Muslims to accomplish it.

    I think that any woman in the UK or anywhere else in the world who approves of this barbaric behavior should have it performed on them.

  14. Ole Pederson says

    Aug 19, 2018 at 3:05 pm

    I do not have the book and number ready, but there are references to FGM in several hadiths, for example one referring to intercourse “when the male and femal circumcised parts meet”. One source to look it up is Mark Durie’s excellent book “The Third Choice”.

    There are a few Muslim sects not practising tthis horrible custom, but many do, and it is naive to think they do it “because of ancient custom” …

    • Carol the 1st says

      Aug 19, 2018 at 3:57 pm

      Aisha and Big Moe did it and so it is an example to all whether it came from Koran or Hadaths.

    Yokel…yes, I have your post in mind but you seem to be EQUATING two actions that are not at all equivalent. With female children they are doing MORE than tampering with a piece of skin. Cultural Americans will not be BLACKMAILED out of their MORAL COMPASS in the foreseeable future. It is far too GROSS to even consider that possibly ever happening. A female child is not a paper dolly for idiots.

    • Yokel says

      Aug 24, 2018 at 8:51 am

      OK Carol, let’s take this slowly … and please don’t raise your voice, quiet conversation is sufficient to discuss your problem understanding what I wrote.

      1. I am a Brit. The little girl in question was mutilated in Britain. I am angry that it happened.
      2. Amateur clitorectomy for “religious” reasons is wrong, very wrong on many levels.
      3. Clitorectomy has been a specific crime in Britain since 1985, some thirty three years ago.
      4. In describing the history of male circumcision at the hands of the British National Health Service (NHS) since nationalisation by the socialists in 1948, I was not expressing an opinion about the wisdom of the operation, I was merely relating the factual history of its suppression in Britain under the NHS.
      5. Because the NHS is the closest that the British get to a national religion these days, there is precious little democratic control over the NHS. It is an example of “technocratic” government in which the “experts” get to tell the rest of us how things are going to be.
      6. I described that history of male circumcision to illustrate a medical setting for the “Muslim demand, muslim get” syndrome which is very prevalent in Britain today. The point is that the NHS suppressed male circumcision very effectively until they had to deal with far too many young penises mutilated by amateur muslim circumcisers. Then as a “harm reduction” measure the NHS permitted the operation in muslim dominated areas only. There are plenty of other examples of “muslim demand, muslim get”, but this is the most obvious medical example that I could think of.
      7. I have not suggested that male circumcision is in any way similar to FGM.
      8. By turning up in increasing numbers at hospital Accident & Emergency (A&E) departments with bleeding and mutilated penises, the muslims were able to force the NHS to change it’s policy on male circumcision to the muslims’ advantage.
      9. My dread is that now little muslim girls will be turning up in increasing numbers at A&E with bleeding and mutilated lady parts wanting the NHS to sort it out. If that does happen, the pragmatists in their ranks will undoubtedly press for some “harm reduction” for those “at risk” of the procedure being performed by an amateur.
      10. Unless someone develops a spine not currently seen in the moral relativists who set government policy these days, there will be no intervention to prosecute the adults involved, to take that children “into care” to protect them, and therefore no stopping the practice. [Remember, as Jesus promised, we are now living as in the days of Noah. Every man will do what is right in his own eyes. cf Luke 17vv26-27]
      11. My utter dread is that therefore the “harm reduction” “pragmatists” will win the day, and the NHS will perform FGM on little “at risk” muslim girls, an operation that will remain illegal for the rest of the population (for good reason). And along with the suffering of these girls will go the remnants of the Common Law standard of One Law for All.

      So for the avoidance of doubt:
      a) Not in the slightest am I “EQUATING two actions that are not at all equivalent”
      b) I am very well aware of the difference between male circumcision and horrible practice of muslim mandated FGM
      c) I have no intention of blackmailing anyone, least of all Cultural Americans
      d) A future in which FGM is considered normal, and provided by the State (almost monopoly) healthcare provider is indeed gross, but sadly it won’t be the only repugnant thing happening at that time
      e) In attacking me, you are attacking the wrong target
      f) If you still think that you and I are on opposing sides in this matter, please re-read all my posts in this thread and take a deep breath before picking up your hammer and tongs again.
