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

UK: Labour invites jihad preacher Shakeel Begg to address “anti-racism rally”

Nov 8, 2018 11:40 am By Robert Spencer

The Left is not concerned about jihad mass murder and Sharia oppression. It is far more concerned about “Islamophobia.”

“Extremist preacher Shakeel Begg invited to Labour anti-racism rally,” by Henry Zeffman, The Times, November 8 2018:

Labour activists were condemned for inviting a known extremist preacher to an anti-racism rally.

Shakeel Begg, an imam, was listed as a speaker at a Lewisham Labour Against Racism meeting on Tuesday, alongside two Labour MPs, local activists, trade unionists and students.

The rally in southeast London aimed to “challenge the hostile environment”, “stop Tommy Robinson’s far-right allies” and “oppose Islamophobia and antisemitism”. It was attended by many of the area’s prominent Labour officials.

Mr Begg, an imam at the Lewisham Islamic Centre, was declared “an extremist Islamic speaker who espouses extremist Islamic positions” by the High Court in 2016. The court ruled that he “recently promoted and encouraged religious violence by telling Muslims that violence in support of Islam would constitute a man’s greatest…

    For labour’s anti-racism rally…

    Will the antisemitic UK labour party be hearing the following pearls of islamic wisdom from the muslim ‘holy’ man?

    Will the preacher be mentioning the following?

    1.The Jews are “apes,to be despised and hated” koran 2:65
    {doesn’t that sound antisemitic?Or is it perhaps music to the ears of the UK labour party in the RED-GREEN,leftist-islamist axis?}

    2.”ahmad ibn sulayaman,sahnun’s companion said that
    whoever says the prophet was black is KILLED.
    The prophet was not black”
    Ash Shifa

    Let’s discuss islam’s racism…

    3 the “prophet” of islam was an owner,buyer and seller of black people.

    sahih muslim 3901selling..
    sahih bukhari 7263 owner..
    sahih bukhari 6161 Anjasha,muhammed’s black slave

    4 This one is for for naive Jewish Leftie liberals..of the UK Labour party..

    SAHIH MUSLIM #6985 islam’s genocidal war of annihilation against the Jews.
    {Remember the Final Solution……??when muslims gain political power by using the Left,you do KNOW what they plan to do both to the Left and to the Jews?Look at any islamic country..}

    So leftists invite a hate preacher to an anti racism event lmao.

      One must understand the modern SJW thinking: Muslims preaching hate against unbelievers is not racism because unbelievers are spread across all races. However, criticism of Islam is racism because Muslims belong to one, united, peaceful, ummah(or community). For the SJW, community = race.

        Sometimes it is difficult to decipher the contradictions inherent within this alliance between leftists-islamists- and sjw. So thank you for the explanation.

        Analysed from a politically correct perspective their terminology makes sense.

        From a dharmically correct perspective it seems nothing the
        islamojihadists/leftists/sjw makes any sense whatsoever. True social justice is the end result of a society comprised of fully enlightened individuals who take personal responsibility for their thoughts, words, deeds and intentions.

        The leftists/sjw/jihadists expend a lot of energy in blaming their misfortunes upon other peoples – this is immature and immoral to always blame others- people must take responsibility and perfect themselves instead of expecting jizya, welfare, blaming the ‘patriarchy’ etc. Do these people not understand unjust wars of looting are how they receive their welfare/jizya? Do they not understand the role of father/husband as being of vital importance in the only institution that really matters: the family? (muslim polygamic family life is highly dysgenic and dysfunctional – I will not expand further into this topic at present otherwise this comment will become too long.)

    Islamic, genocidal, political supremacism is ‘good’ for Labour.

    Ethnic cleansing of other religions is the plan of JIHAD, Islam’s not-so-secret MASTER PLAN to rule the world.

    Why is Labour helping a DEATH CULT to TAKE OVER THE WORLD?

    • Jayell says

      Labour is just chasing the ethnic-minority vote as cheap polling-booth fodder irrespective of who the minorities are or what they represent. And they are clearly expecting no one to notice the glaring discrepancies – as indeed most the UK sheeple who believe the MSM won’t, especially those who support Labour simply because their fathers/grandfathers/ great-grandfathers did; and, of course, the trendy champagne-socialist liberal set will just ignore anything that contradicts or threatens to destabilise their delicate idealistic agenda as dicatated by the Guardian and the BBC (in short, idiots).

    If you are associated in any way with someone who espouses shariah then you are automatically phobic towards all the billions of people who don’t. Therefore, using the logic of the left, the host of this imam automatically hates Christians, Jews, Hindus, Atheists, Vegans, Gays, Buddhists, Most Whites, Most Latinos, Most Asians. Islam is a religion that welcomes and hates everybody at the same time.

    UK: Labour invites jihad preacher Shakeel Begg to address “anti-racism rally”
    …………………………….

    Well, this is just perverse. Even the BBC has called him an “extremist”. (He lost a libel case against them on just this issue).

    He is Imam at the Mosque where the killers of Lee Rigby worshipped.

    He has said that Jihad is the greatest of deeds–which is, of course, orthodox Islam. He has called for Muslims to go to “Palestine” to murder Jews. He has spoken at a “Heroes of Islam” event supporting Aafia Siddiqui, who had been convicted on two counts of attempted murder.

    That he is now being courted by Labour is *deeply* disturbing.

    But Robert Spencer is a threat to ‘Theresa Mays pathetic little Dhimmi police state’? You really couldn’t make it up.

    But Theresa May is worried about people like Lauren Southern & Robert Spencer. They’re definitely threats to the nation.

    The charge is “extremism”. When did non-conformity become a crime? It would be far better to state his deplorable ideology. Then the “extremist” could could confirm, deny, or correct the statement.

    Th Labour party couldn’t care less about phobias or anti-Semitism or hate speech.

    All they are bothered about is getting the Muslim vote. They have worked out if the Muslims turn out to vote for Labour en masse then Labour will get into power.

    That is all they care about.
