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

UKIP leader Gerard Batten dares to link Muslim rape gangs to Islam

Sep 21, 2018 1:52 pm By Robert Spencer

Why is this even remotely controversial? Because the denial and willful ignorance regarding the Muslim rape gangs’ connection to Islam is nigh universal in Britain today. In reality, however, the connection is obvious. One survivor of a Muslim rape gang in the UK said that her rapists would quote Quran to her, and believed their actions justified by Islam.

The Qur’an teaches that Infidel women can be lawfully taken for sexual use (cf. its allowance for a man to take “captives of the right hand,” 4:3, 4:24, 23:1-6, 33:50, 70:30). The Qur’an says: “O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” (33:59) The implication there is that if women do not cover themselves adequately with their outer garments, they may be abused, and that such abuse would be justified.

“UKIP leader Gerard Batten links sexual grooming of girls to Islam,” Sky News, September 21, 2018:

UKIP leader Gerard Batten has linked Islam to the “industrialised sexual exploitation” of girls across the country.

“The ideology of the religion does actually traditionally throughout its history make sex slaves legitimate. Their prophet had sex slaves,” he said.

Challenged by Sky News presenter Gillian Joseph, he replied: “It’s in the Hadith and the Koran. It’s a tradition that that’s okay to do that.

“People take their prophet as the model for all time and the perfect human being, so if he did something then it’s okay for other people to do it.

“The problem is with the ideology, not individuals. I have never attacked individuals. I always talk about the ideology, and the ideology is the problem.”

Questioned again by the presenter that he was attacking the entire religion of Islam, he said: “It does allow their followers to take sex slaves who are not of the same religion.

“It is no good telling me and the world it doesn’t happen because everybody knows it does happen.

Mr Batten was asked why he isolated the sexual grooming of victims in areas such as Rotherham in south Yorkshire as a Muslim crime – and did not condemn other sexual crimes such as those committed by members of the Catholic Church.

Mr Batten said: “It is predominantly people who follow that religion who are causing this problem – on a national scale – which is the industrialised sexual exploitation for money and for their own perverted purposes. That happens to be a fact.

“I am happy to condemn paedophilia and child abuse and sexual abuse wherever it occurs – it is reprehensible whoever commits it.”

Asked if he still stood by his opinion that Islam is a “death cult”, he added: “Study its history for the last 1,400 years and take an impartial look at it and you might come to that view as well.”…

        Four unrelated videos to the topic of rape. Are you that desperate for attention, Andy?

        • gravenimage says

          Sep 22, 2018 at 1:02 am

          Being able to speak out against the threat of Islam is indeed an important issue, Elisha. I’m not sure why you think it is not?

        • IanB says

          Sep 22, 2018 at 4:17 am

          The videos are not unrelated, they are highly relevant. Tommy was imprisoned because he spoke out about the gang rape of young white girls by Pakistani Muslims.
          Andy deserves encouragement, not derision.

    What the hell is “Sexual Grooming”???

    Is this a term used to make the crime of RAPE sound less criminal when perpetrated my Muslims?

    Is there now, no difference between getting RAPED, and getting a BRAZILIAN WAX ???

    • CogitoErgoSum says

      Sep 21, 2018 at 4:55 pm

      Sexual grooming is a process used by an adult to prepare a child for accepting sexual abuse as something normal. It can take anywhere from a few weeks to several years. It involves gaining the trust of the child but if that alone does not work some coercion may be employed also. It’s a process involving deception and betrayal and then coercion into submission and complete domination so that the child soon comes to think nobody is able to be trusted. It’s a lot like what is happening to entire countries in Europe today … except so far they still remain trusting of their groomers.

      • traci94 says

        Sep 21, 2018 at 8:50 pm

        Doesn’t it also involve getting the children addicted to drugs? And, the groomers say they will harm the families of the children if they tell them about the abuse?

        • CogitoErgoSum says

          Sep 21, 2018 at 9:28 pm

          Yes, the use of drugs would certainly help in making the child more dependent on the adult providing the drugs and then also threatening to involve the child’s family in something shameful would cause the child to be even more submissive. For a person willing to use and abuse a child, I don’t imagine that any means of control would be off limits. Submission would be the ultimate goal by any means necessary. (By the way, Islam means submission.)

        yes absolutely,Nige was the man for the time but no longer,he is it seems too entrenched within the media circus going on tours around the world,and with his radio show etc,Gerard Batten has however shown that he is prepared to confront headon the biggest danger that we have EVER faced, the filth of sharia domination,this threat is so so real and we must unite behind a party like UKIP.Gerard Batten must implore the other ‘street factions’ like BNP,BF,LA,FLA ForBritain to forget petty differences and unite to form one organisation,recruiting Tommy Robinson would be a good idea as he seems to act like a catsalyst for the free speaking patriotic population.It is essential to remove the Con/Lab liars and appeasers of islam from Westminster and install a party who are for the people,get behind the man Batten.

          Definitely NOT the ghastly BNP.. UKIP would NEVER have anything to do with them unlike Labour who have several exBNP as councillors. Plus, Nick Griffin is a cheerleader for Jew hating Corbyn. We in UKIP will NEVER make common cause with REAL racists, who ironically support Islamic Jew hatred while simultaneously slagging off muslims

    Gerard Batten has crossed into previously forbidden territory in the UK. Now OTHERS WILL FOLLOW HIM.

    All his remarks about SEX SLAVES in Islam are CORRECT and SUPPORTED by Islam’s PRIMARY SOURCE TEXTS, by the canonical commentaries of Islam and by Islamic history.

    The only controversy in quoting the Islamic texts is WHY THE HECK UK JOURNALISTS and POLITICIANS have NOT TAKEN THE TIME to INFORM THEMSELVES about Islam????

    It’s time for UK politicians to READ THE ISLAMIC SOURCE TEXTS and discover that Islam is INDEED MISOGYNISTIC and XENOPHOBIC … KAFIROPHOBIC.

    It is individuals who embody and carry out the vile teachings of islam and the koran. They should be targeted as well — in every sense of that word. Similarly, when Catholic priests rape children and take advantage of them we don’t blame Christianity and the Holy Bible — do we? No, primarily we focus on the crimes of the priests involved and should prosecute them without sheltering them from the laws of the land.

    So it is wrong to just say “the religion did it” or “the Devil did it” or whatever. Who really did it? The individuals who use various books and doctrines as their ticket to sexual ecstasy with innocent little children, sex slaves, prisoners, “kuffar,” and so forth. So personally I think we must target the individual moslems and individuals whatever their faith or philosophy might be.

    The koran happens to be the worst of the worst doctrines on the planet but still not all moslems act out every vile perversion in the koran. But still all moslems, especially those who refuse to assimilate, should be removed from our Western nations — they don’t belong here and can bring only grief if they enact many of the worst teachings of the koran and derived toilet paper.

    In every criminal case we should feel free to express our disgust and absolutely renounce the vile scriptural excuses used by moslems (or by some others), just as we should feel free to express our disgust for moslems and islamic “traditions” that go against our most fundamental values, principles, and beliefs as Judeo-Christian based nations. Not to speak out against moslem depravity and madness is a sin of omission.

    he last thing UKIP needs is the Islam apologist Nigel Farage poking his nose in. Farage and his pal Steve Crowther, virtually wrecked UKIP by pushing support of Islam as a UKIP policy. Good luck to Gerard Batten if he is able to clear Crowther’s Muslim 5th column out of UKIP. If Tommy Robinson becomes a UKIP member, Gerard will have succeeded in defeating Crowther and Farage.
