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

Facebook removes ads promoting petition to halt UK mosque

Jan 8, 2019 12:15 pm By Robert Spencer

Britain First and Political Gamers UK are being defamed with the usual epithet of “far right,” which means nothing more today than that the establishment media wants you to dislike them. The real question is this: is any concern about any mosque anywhere in the West ipso facto bigoted and Islamophobic? In Switzerland, mosques have proven ties to the Islamic State. In Germany, a mosque was recently raided for suspected jihad terror financing. In Britain, it was recently discovered that a mosque where Meghan Markle supported a community was linked to 19 jihadis. Also in Britain, the imam at the Manchester jihad mass murderer’s mosque had called for armed jihad before the massacre. In Prague, a Muslim planning a jihad massacre frequented mosques and said his spiritual role model was an imam.

And so on and on. But concern about this mosque is “Islamophobia” and “bigotry,” and so Facebook acts swiftly to silence it.

It isn’t hard to see what the outcome of all this will be, and it won’t be pretty.

“Facebook removes ads promoting Britain First petition to halt Maidstone Mosque,” by Luke May, Kent Online, January 7, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Social media giant Facebook has removed three adverts promoting a Britain First petition to ban renovations to a mosque.

The party, led by former Swanley British National Party councillor Paul Golding, has set up a petition to try and stop Maidstone Mosque being redeveloped.

Britain First’s Facebook page was removed from Facebook last March, along with the Mr Golding’s and deputy leader Jayda Fransen’s pages, for violating Facebook’s community standards.

Over Christmas adverts appeared on a separate page, Political Gamers UK, promoting Britain First’s petition against work at a mosque in Mote Road.

The mosque’s former building has been levelled to make way for a three-storey building.

The renovations are being made to help boost the mosque’s role as a cultural hub and a place of worship.

All three adverts originated from Political Gamers UK, which claims to have no direct links with Britain First….

Britain First says it intends to sue the social media giant for political discrimination.

In a statement, Britain First called the move “political gerrymandering and censorship at its worst”.

    I removed Farcebook and the commie Suckbuttberg and his fairy gang from my computer long ago as any other virus one would find that was planted by a sympathizer and known supporter platform of Isis and the other hate cults such as islam

      Truly, Zuckerberg is KISSING THE BUTT OF THE PAKISTANI GOVERNMENT and its FREEDOM-DESTROYING and LIFE-DESTROYING BLASPHEMY LAW.

      Zuckerberg is kissing the ass of MURDEROUS TOTALITARIANS. A general boycott of FACEBOOK is the cure.

    On the date of 1/6/19 Facebook put me under a 29 day ban. This time for strongly denouncing the Muslim migrant sex attacks on the girls and women of Europe as well as for adamantly condemning those brutal vicious malicious Muslim/ jihadists who are so heinously cruel that the beheaded two young Scandinavian women and even recorded in the cell phone of those girls and sent the beheading of the girls. to their mothers . Facebook views my posting this as a “violation of their standards” because criticizes those sex offending Muslims and those murderous Muslims my “criticism of others because of their religious affiliation” is forbidden.

    Either Facebook is thoroughly infected by politically correct madness , so much so the Facebook chiefs can understand the difference between right and wrong or they are secretly have their palms greased by oil rich Muslims sheikhs Something is wrong, that is very wrong with Facebook.

      Didn’t you know? Sex attacks on non-veiled women and girls are halal, just as facebook!
      Saying the truth is haram, just as criticizing anything islam.

    The purpose of a mosque is to prepare Muslims for jihad, the struggle to remove the human rights and civil liberties of women and dirty kafirs.

    Everybody should remove FB from their computer and see what happens when the money stops flowing and the employees are out on the street.

    This a pro-mosques /Islamic position of the Facebook chiefs reveals that those who are in the “top dogs” of Facebook no lounger ,if they ever did, care about being objective

    Furthermore, such a petition ,as above, is very important and necessary,. this is so because the construction of the many mosques in both Europe and America not only means that more and more Muslims are entering those two continents and likewise more and more people in America and Europe are now being proselytized to Islam. This may be disturbing enough. In addition, this mass construction of mosques on America and Europe have still a further meaning which has been explained by a former Muslim who is now a Christian, Dr. Daniel Shayesteh, in his book ISLAM THE HOUSE I LEFT BEHIND for in page 99 it informs the reader that “The mosque is vital for establishing Muslims as sovereign over non-Muslims in a non-Islamic society or country. Building a mosque in a non-Islamic society or country symbolizes Islam’s claim over that society or country, even with a non-Muslim majority.”

      Many practical concerns of mosque-building, including PARKING PROBLEMS and increase in petty crimes have been observed where mosques have grown. One of things that happens in a mosque neighborhood is the eventual growth of a no-go zone.

      No-go zones are the traditional way Islamic supremacism has spread itself.

    People on Facebook are supporting the Deep State, whether they know it or not, whether they care or not.

    If you are angry at Facebook for becoming society’s arbitrary censor, join the social media platform Minds, which rejects all censorship. Before you quit Facebook, announce on Facebook that you are going to the Minds platform because of Facebook censorship, and that you believe the remedy for bad speech is not censorship but more speech. Facebook may well censor your announcement, but perhaps some of your friends will see it and check out Minds or another social media alternative.

    Here are a couple of links that talk about the Minds social media platform:

    http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minds

    http://www.maketecheasier.com/facebook-alternatives-social-networks/

    The Minds platform has tons of sane people, but because the platform rejects all censorship, it will also have some nasty types. Sane people should not let that be a reason to stay away from the platform, but rather a reason to join it and dominate it with their sane presence. Stand up for freedom of speech, and F*** Facebook.

    Here’s an article about alternatives to Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and the rest of the SOB companies that try to censor anyone they disagree with or that they get enough complaints about.

    http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-23/new-social-media-alternatives-facebook-youtube-twitter-and-other-big-tech-platforms

    A lot of the people today who deem themselves “sophisticated” don’t understand the idea of freedom of speech and want to empower authorities to start controlling speech, always of course for very well-intentioned reasons. The impulse is in fact not sophisticated but positively troglodytic. (Then again, pardon the insult to cave-dwellers — maybe I should have said something like “hive-like” instead. But that would be an insult to bees. Maybe I should have adopted the Qur’anic “worst of creatures”, except no creature, not even a cockroach or a Sarsour, is worthy of Qur’anic treatment.)

    Here’s an article, from the libertarian journal Reason, about the pros and cons of several Facebook alternatives. The Mind platform comes out perhaps the strongest. Its downside is that it has perhaps a couple of million users, whereas Facebook has 2 billion or more. On the other hand, Mind apparently pays you sometimes for your activities on the site.
