Isn’t multicultural London wonderful? The Qur’an demonizes the Jews in numerous ways. It depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).
“Uber bars driver after he cancels passengers’ journey saying ‘I don’t take Jews,'” by Daniel Sugarman, The JC, April 3, 2019 (thanks to the Geller Report):
Uber has barred a London driver from the app after two men claimed he cancelled their requested trip because he “doesn’t take Jews”.
The driver, identified to his passengers as “Ahmad”, was booked for a journey in Wembley on Monday afternoon by Sam Adler and his business partner.
“We were standing by the High Road in Wembley, and the guy drove past and said ‘just dropping off a passenger, I’m coming back’”, Mr Adler told the JC.
Mr Adler said he believed the driver then noticed that the two men waiting were wearing kippahs, because he said the driver subsequently “turned around, and as he drove past us, said ‘I don’t take Jews’. Then he hightailed it, just pegged it.”
Screenshots of the booked journey, seen by the JC, show the driver then cancelled the booking via the app.
In a statement to the JC, an Uber spokesperson said that the behaviour was “totally unacceptable” and that the company “does not tolerate any form of discrimination.
“As soon as we are made aware of these situations we remove a driver’s access from the app and report them to the Metropolitan Police.”
Uber had told Mr Adler the situation was being “handled as a priority”, confirming they had “the full details of the partner-driver, trip and rider on our systems, so that we can immediately investigate any concerns raised”.
However, they declined to provide Mr Adler with any compensation when he asked, telling him: “We would never want to minimise an experience like you describe by putting an arbitrary monetary value on the situation.
“What may be one value to an individual may be different to another – it is just not possible to calculate.”…

“We would never want to minimise the experience like you describe by putting an arbitrary monetary value on the situation.” Uber Management
Really? Surely it’s not beyond the wit of Uber to both provide money to those potential clients who have been discriminated against by the driver, and to discharge the driver. That does not “minimize the experience” – rather, it maximizes it.
It’s quite an idea, this dismissal of “an arbitrary monetary value.” Think of how it could be put to use in civil suits all over the Western world. “No, of course we would want to minimize the pain you have experienced as to offer as recompense mere money. That would be vulgar. You deserve something better than money, like a heartfelt apology, which we are happy to provide..”

Excellent, Hugh!
My thoughts exactly as I was reading that part of the post.
You nailed it. And I fervently hope Uber takes a major hit for trotting out such a despicable, insensitive statement.

PS—Ashley, I just read JW from yesterday, and I was saddened to learn of your spouse’s illness. I know you said you’re agnostic, but I will still keep you in my prayers if that’s ok.
I appreciate the freedom we have here on JW to post our thoughts and I appreciate those who are concerned about the influence of Sharia spreading around the world.

I missed that–Ashley, is your spouse sick? I hope for a quick recovery.
Ragdoll says
A sort-of positive response from Uber, at least! Probably only because they were terrified of getting any more bad publicity about their drivers…
Renate says
If a non-Muslim cab driver said, “I don’t take Muslims.”, that would be international news and we would never hear the end of “Islamophobia”, racism, bigotry, and white supremacy accusations.
Dawne says
I very much hope that the 2 people affected by this will take an action against Uber. I believe that since recent curt decisions, in the UK Uber drivers are considered to be employees of the company rather than self employed drivers. Therefore the anti semitism shown was by an employee of Uber. This doesn’t surprise me that this has happened in London. I would never use Uber anyway as I don’t think they are safe – they don’t do proper vetting in my opinion – I’ve heard too many horror stories. And most of their drivers in London are Muslim;

Even when Oswald Moseley was up to his tricks in the 1930’s, we never had any of these problems in London. Now we do. Just like we never had mass rapes and criminal abuses of under-age girls before. So what’;s changed in the UK? Well, we hardly had any mosques either. Could it be that the two are related?
carpediadem says
Mass abuse of children, male and female were occurring in orphanages, religious institutions and govt institutions.Don’t forget the UK govt sent thousands of kids to Australia, where they also ended up abused, even though some of their parents were alive.

UK: Muslim Uber driver cancels passengers’ journey, saying “I don’t take Jews”

It begins.
The enemy is neither rational, nor moral. It cannot be reasoned with, or negotiated with. It is the large unseen hand of hate, and it will sweep away the lies of equality. In G-d I trust.
Muslims so long for their hatred to be heard, that they will defend him and join his protest. This is understood by the establishment. It will result in either the censored betrayal of the Jews rights not to be discriminated, or admitted inability to defend Jewish rights and or the exposure of muslim racism. A grand victory for justice. In G-d I trust.
J D.S says
NO! NO! NO! Jews are not bent on destroying the well being of Muslims …Muslims are bent on destroying the well being of themselves….Even the Koran and the Hadath are the guidelines for the destruction of the muslim well being.
DP111 says
They should be grateful that they managed to get out alive from this encounter.
Will the London police do anything about this Hate crime. No chance.
K WAGNER says
England must be one of the most fickle and Stupid Islam loving countries in the world.

An Israeli says
These Muslims should go back to their Jew-cleansed countries. Nor we western Jews or you Christians/Atheists want them.

terry says
Muslims hate Jews for religious reasons, and IMO its over 90% of them.
They hate christians, Freedom and our way of life as well, actually they hate all non-muslims.
