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

UK: As Muslim who attacked cops with sword walks free, cops hunt for man on train who spoke of disliking Muslims

Dec 20, 2018 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Mohiussunnath Chowdhury attacked cops with a sword while screaming “Allahu akbar,” and he was just found not guilty after explaining that he didn’t mean to hurt anyone. Meanwhile, British police are hunting for a real criminal: a man who was heard on a train speaking of his “dislike of Muslims.”

It would be great if everyone liked everyone else, but that isn’t the way the world is. Are people in Britain who speak of their “dislike of Christians” or “dislike of Jews” hunted by police in Britain? Somehow I doubt it. But when it comes to Muslims, clearly the freedom of speech in Britain is a thing of the past.

“Officers investigating hate crime search for loud man who talked of ‘dislike of Muslims’ on train from York to Leeds,” by Joe Cawthorn, Yorkshire Evening Post, December 20, 2018:

A man who spoke of his ‘dislike of Muslims’ on a train from York to Leeds is being sought by officers investigating hate crime.

The incident occurred at around 11.30pm on October 17, when British Transpot [sic] Police (BTP) were made aware of a man talking loudly about his ‘dislike of Muslims’ on the 10.52pm Trans Pennine Express service from York to Leeds.

A passenger on board sent a text message to BTP.

The man was white with a shaven head and approximately 5ft 6ins tall and of a slim to medium build.

He was wearing a blue bomber jacket with a white stripe, dark jeans and black trainers. Officers are appealing for any witnesses who were on board the train and heard what happened, to get in touch. Or, if the description matches someone you know, to get in touch….

      I’m Agreeing with this to a substantial extent! “cast fear in their hearts…”, that’s an important Islamic tool, I expect nothing less from a barbaric st*pid demonic ideology of a religion

    Obviously the cops think they can prevent more Muslim attacks on cops if they can arrest people who fail to show the requisite respect for the great Abrahamic religion of peace.

    • somehistory says

      Dec 20, 2018 at 2:41 pm

      If it keeps going along this path, the cops will have to arrest themselves for arresting moslims and charging them, and the prosecutors will have to charge themselves for charging moslims with crimes.

    Hmm, it couldn’t be Jeremy Corbyn they’re looking for. He doesn’t have a shaved head. And it’s not Muslims he doesn’t like…

    The overall message is:

    1. muslims killing people, including police officers, threatening to hack them to death with swords and machetes and shouting their devil ahkbar phrase = OK
    2. Disliking muslims for items in #1 = not OK

    The thought police are at work again in Orwelland.
    A society like that is doomed to fail.
    Yet they are asinine enough to wonder what went wrong…

    I understand it is illegal to own a pocket knife with a blade over 3” in length in the UK. Yet this muslim who attacked police with a sword is allowed to walk free without any criminal record or jail sentence.

    Whatever you do in the UK don’t express an opinion that may be derogatory toward muslims. You will be hunted down like a dog by the police.

    Does anyone else see the ironic hypocrisy in these two actions by the state in the UK?

      You may nit “necessarily hate Muslims”, but do you *love* them, for you may soon be compelled to. Both Big Brother and Allah do this. How far we are down that road can be seen from MC’s link above.

    There is a MASS HYSTERIA among the UK Globalist LEFTARDS which has infiltrated the police departments, law schools and even law courts.

    I will SIMPLIFY IT FOR YOU: What is the main DIFFERENCE in MOTIVE between CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM??? You do not know that … do you? Here it is …

    1) THE MOTIVATION OF CHRISTIANITY IS THE UNIVERSAL GOLDEN RULE

    2) THE MOTIVATION ISLAM IS AL WALAA WAL BARAA (allegiance towards Muslims versus HATRED and HOSTILITY towards the DIRTY KUFAAR).

    Got it?

    So what do you think … which DEVOUT PRACTIONERS are MORE DANGEROUS??? The ones who are motivated by UNIVERSAL BROTHERHOOD AND LOVE or MUSLIMS WHO ARE MOTIVATED BY HATRED AND HOSTILITY TOWARDS NON-MUSLIMS???

    Hmmmmm…. toughie, eh?

    Here in America when a black man commits a crime the media often says “the man in question was wearing a gray sweatshirt or blue T-shirt as if the clothing is the discernible factor as who the person is, what a complete joke. Here in England they described him by race and many other traits in appearance.
    The men of England waved the white surrender flag decades ago.

      This is very common. This “dislike of Muslims” may just have been a dislike of Jihad terrorism.

    This is unbelievable, this is basically the thought police in action. You aren’t even allowed to express what you like or dislike in Britain now? I see a revolution coming to Britain shortly over many things, including the Brexit debacle.

    I know people like Robert & Pamela don’t like being banned from Britain, but if you are banned you must be doing something right in terms of common sense. If the British authorities like you then you are either a Muslim or a hard leftist.

    No actual crime was committed but several members of National Action were given savage sentences this week for holding forbidden opinions, dislike of Jews among them. The judge said they aimed to overthrow democracy and eradicate whole sections of society but the UK Govt has been doing that since 1948; it is in fact the Globalist agenda.

    If I — a white non-Muslim — was caught walking the streets of London, quietly minding my own business, carrying a pocket knife with a blade longer than 3 inches, I would be looking at prison time.

    But a Muslim can attack police officers with a f*cking SWORD, while screaming “Allahu Akbar!”, and get off scott-free. Pure insanity!

    It was me, or may as well have been on that train. I hate Islam.
    I was not aware there was a legal obligation to like Muhammadans, what tosh, how could that ever play out in court?
    I don’t like policemen or judges either.
    It’s insanity to like people who hate you and believe you should be punished.

    NOW I am convinced that Britain IS a Muslim country. Did the British lose their minds? Are they blind? Don’t they see what those criminal Muslims are doing? Too bad, such once a great country in such a short time became a seven century level. It is going down the drain so amazingly fast. The world is submitting to Satan.

    A sure sign that the UK is lost. A British subject contacted the police about the man expressing dislike for Muslims. The police obviously responded, and assigned the search a high priority.

    The British subject was OK with throwing a fellow subject in jail for saying words.

    They really are “subjects” now, and not to the Queen, but to their new lords the name of whose religion means submission or subjugation.

  29. scherado says

    If the goal and, therefore, job of law enforcement is to keep the peace at all costs, then this result is quite rational. If the Britons have any self-respect — and I know that some remain — then there will be no peace, and it won’t be pretty.

    So who was the person who made the report to the police? Someone who was ‘offended’, perhaps? And what sort of person might have been ‘offended’ by this man expressing his own personal.opinion about our muslim ‘friends’? Some hypersensitive liberal snowflake? Or perhaps a devout disciple of the ‘Great Prophet’, because the population of the Islamic Republic of Bradford is (predictably) spreading eastwards to Leeds and the beautiful ancient Cathedral city of York, which acquired its first mosque a few years ago. How long before its famous city walls are over-run and York Minster becomes York Mosque?

    PS. I’ve recently acquired hundreds of MP3 recordings of BBC radio comedy shows from the 1950’s and 1960’s. They’re very good, but it’s impossible to miss the not-infrequent loosely-veiled mildly derogatory references to our Jewish friends in the scripts. So, when are the BBC and the surviving script writers and producers going to be approached by the police?

      someone up above gave a link to this previous story that had this part:

      Essex Police directed Breitbart London to a section of a CoP manual, which explains that hostility for the purposes of recording a hate incident is anything that is “perceived” by the victim as hostility. It reads:

      “For recording purposes, the perception of the victim of any other person is the defining factor in determining whether an incident is a hate crime, or in recognising the hostility element of a hate crime.

      “The victim does not have to justify or provide evidence of their belief, and police officers and staff should not directly challenge this perception. Evidence of the hostility is not required for an incident to be recorded as a hate crime or hate incident.”
