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

UK: Foes of proposed mosque cite traffic, parking concerns, mosque supporters cry “Islamophobia”

Sep 30, 2019 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“The flyer asks neighbours to object to the plans because of fears surrounding congestion and parking, residential disturbance and the loss of employment space.”

If there were a flyer objecting to a proposed church because of fears surrounding congestion and parking, residential disturbance and the loss of employment space, would the authors of the flyer be accused of anti-Christian bigotry? Of course not. But every objection to anything remotely related to Islam gets this reaction. This incident shows why it is virtually impossible to have an honest public discussion about the motivating ideology behind jihad violence. Any such discussion is immediately shut down with charges of “Islamophobia.”

“‘Islamophobic’ Mosque objection flyers anger neighbours,” by Ollie Sirrell, Bracknell News, September 27, 2019 (thanks to Henry):

FLYERS asking neighbours to object to plans to build an Islamic Community Centre on Cookham Road have been branded as “Islamophobic” by residents.

Those living close to the proposed site have had put through their letterboxes which ask neighbours to submit their concerns to Bracknell Forest Council.

Attached with the flyer is a card where neighbours are asked to write the reasons for their objections, as well as a free post envelope with BFC’s planning department address on the back.

The flyer asks neighbours to object to the plans because of fears surrounding congestion and parking, residential disturbance and the loss of employment space.

However, one recipient told the News she thought the flyers were ‘Islamophobic’.

Suzanna Chambers, from Boyd Court, said: “This is nasty, objectionable and a little too much like ‘the other’ for my liking.

“Given that there is no option but to object to the Mosque and point two of the leaflet is pretty much point one rejigged, I’d say it’s Islamophobic.

“It is nasty and insidious and so disappointing in this day and age.”…

    It’s this automatic presumption of “islamophobia” isn’t it? Nobody would actually want a building which is going to attract hundreds of visitors every week opening near them, regardless of what the building is. And most of Britain is so built up that traffic, parking and noise disturbance is almost certainly going to be an issue. But call “islamophobia” or “racism” and that’s immediately believed and the Muslims given their way. I used to work with 2 Asian women – 1 was Muslim and the other Sikh, and they both admitted to me – laughing about it – that they would use the “racism” card if something happened at work that they didn’t like or a manager or co-worker made them cross for some reason. We need to start calling people out on this.

      Also most important is property values plummet as the infidels do not want to be woken at 5 AM by you know what. People sell at a loss and property is eagerly snapped up by the faithful. In other words another piece of real estate is ‘colonised’ for Islam

      Don’t count your chickens.

      The Islamization of America is well on its way. Just try saying something that is anti-Islam and see the kind of response you get. Muslims are working hard to suppress free speech, and influence public opinion by garnering sympathy thru a victim narrative, with cries of ‘Islamophobe’ and ‘racist’. Islam spreads like the metastatic cancer it is.

      It’s an existential threat to the West and should be opposed. Eradication is the only remedy.

    • Carl Mcgee says

      America isn’t immune. Mosques are low key civilization jihad and are being built in every community in the Western world.

      Every mosque is a barracks indicating that the area where it has been built is conquered territory.

    About the plain to build a mosque in in a specific town in the United Kingdom, be it any town or city in the UK or schemes to have mosques constructed in and town or city in continental Europe .There is a symbolic meaning to all the mosque building in the lands of non-Muslim nations .

    This meaning is that the construction of the many mosques in both in England and the other nations of Europe not only means that more people in Britain and continental Europe are now being proselytized to Islam. This may be disturbing enough. In addition, this mass construction of mosques on in the UK and the other European countries 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.”

    The idiot woman doesn’t yet know “nasty.” Just wait until 4 a.m. arrives and she doesn’t get to sleep any longer. Then she can try to get out of the hood when Friday night arrives with hundreds of cars that do not belong to any local people, but to moslims from elsewhere. Just wait until the moslims feel they own the hood and get pushy.
    Someone should inform her that she is “the other” to moslims and doesn’t even rank as high as those non moslims not wanting the noise, congestion, etc. rank the proposed barracks. A non moslim woman…dirt to be walked on.

      Sep 30, 2019 at 6:50 pm

      But of course:islam is the the religion of antiChrist….

      That islamic call to “prayer” is to al LAH{or hu-baal,the pagan Arab god of the muslims}

      The god that teaches its Ok to break God’s Exodus 20 Commandments.

      The god who has a Doctrine of hate{al walaa wal baraa}
      {so no 2nd chief commandment in islam!}

      The god who says “Do Not Love Others” k5:51 as they are infidels.

      The god who gets Theology wrong in his “perfect” koran
      {christians are not polytheists,Mary is not part of the Trinity,Jews don’t believe “ezra is the son of allah” k9:30 etc}

      A mosque is not dedicated to the Actual God.

      It is dedicated to their pagan, savage, COMMANDMENT-OF-GOD violating Arab fraud of a god al LAH{“The BEST of deceivers” k3;54}

      It’s religion,god,prophet,scripture and followers are evil.

      I’m sure you know from Biblical Prophecy what fate awaits the forces of antiChrist:yes,they strut around the place now..but it is like goliath before David’s victory…

      For Israel:If there was to be a rematch between goliath and David,goliath representing iran and the enemies of Israel.
      goliath may appear to be bigger this time but David{Israel} has the Real God,not the pagan Arab muslim god.David isn’t on the losing side.

      And Jesus is descended from David.

      muslims belong to hu baal{“allah”} the god of goliath…but of course they are too obtuse,blind and stupid to see that.

    Honestly the infidels have no clue what’s coming for them if they think their biggest probem is gonna be traffic. Once the Mosque is established shariah will spread throughout the area and then “kufar-flight” will follow as sure as night follows day eventually resulting to one more British neighborhood being added to Dar Al-Islam.

      Precisely! Has any neighborhood where a mosque has gone up seen an uptick in property values? I’m talking about non-Muslim lands – not sure how it works in places like Qatar or Pakistan.

    We had a similar situation with plans to build a “mega mosque” in Bendigo, Victoria. (a southern state of Australia).
    The opposition from the locals was for basically the same reasons and the reaction was the same. Screams and wails of Islamaphobia from the press and the local council members. Whom it transpired were making a shit load of money from the Muslim community.
    And now the local residents have the problems of traffic congestion, and being woken up at 4 am by some fool wailing from the mosque.
    Of course complaints to police and council about the noise are being ignored.

    So the proposal is for a 27,000 square-foot mosque….

    Just to put it into perspective, the average size house in the United States is around 2,600 ft.². So think at least 10 houses worth of mosque.

    And the last thing that the UK needs is another mosque – a hate center against “unbelievers”.

    And who is bankrolling this? The Saudis? If they are, then they should allow a cathedral to be built in Riyadh…

    I hope Social Justice Warrior Suzanna chambers who finds the objections too “other” likes it when not only is she not able to sleep beyond 4 AM, she is not able to go out in her own neighborhood after dark unless she covers up like a nun, or not be able to drive down her own street during prayer times for all the parked cars of the “others”. I hope she doesn’t have young daughters who will become the targets of the Muslim males of all ages, especially if they’re also not sufficiently “modest”. I hope if she has sons they don’t find themselves threatened with knives. I hope she doesn’t own a doggie, or she will find flyers with calls for her to walk it elsewhere because “Muslims don’t like dogs” and if she doesn’t comply she may find it poisoned. I hope she doesn’t mind the whining and moaning about her Christmas decorations, or if she’s seen eating or drinking outside in daylight during Ramalamadingdong. I hope she doesn’t mind the rise in shoplifting in local stores if her new “other” neighbors are anything like the Somalis in Minneapolis.

    I don’t want any of these things to happen to her. Unless it’s in place of it happening to a neighbor who had the good sense to educate him/her-self and thus knew the importance of filling out that card.

      Actually PARKING is always the FIRST and FOREMOST problem with a new mosque. Muslims are aggressive about moving into the neighborhood. In England, they block driveways and won’t yield. They say things like, ‘It’s our neighborhood now.’ Then they try to make the local people move out.

    UK: Foes of proposed mosque cite traffic, parking concerns, mosque supporters cry “Islamophobia”
    …………………..

    Many people would object to any large public building–a church, a sports arena, entertainment center, etc. and their attendant problems of noise, traffic, and parking–how is any of this “other”?

    But Infidels in the West now are also pretty much essentially prohibited from objecting to mosques on specific grounds–influx of aggressive Muslims, Jihad planning, drop in real estate value, and turning the area into a “No Go Zone”–because all of these things are considered “Islamophobic”.

    But, as this story shows, *any* concerns–even about generic issues like noise and traffic–are going to be chalked up to “Islamophobia” in any case. It is considered “othering” if Infidels do anything less than welcome invading Muslims with open arms (figuratively, that is, since Muslims don’t want “unclean” Kuffar to touch them…).

    The godless communists want to get rid of Islam LATER. First thing is to destroy European culture using Islam to do so.

      Muslims are obstructionist, objectionist (is that’s word? If not it should be) Anyway if it hurts they are crybabies….AND THE WORLD STANDS STILL and does nothing.
      Instead of the world turning against Islamist after 9/11 (which actually proved their DARK side) and many other chaotic incidents, countries have bent over backwards to allow a so called religion to prosper and orogress and I don’t want to hear…”this has nothing to do with islam crap” READ IT, it’s in their writings, yet the world just allows their aggressiveness to continue…Does anyone know how many mosques have been built just in the U.S., since 9/11 and how many Churches have CLOSED since 9/11???

    I suspect the real fears are due to the fact that the mosque is near a school, as opposed too traffic congestion?

    Talk about turkeys voting for Christmas! [Just wait a few years & see what happens to the Winter Solstice!]. Muslims are simply NOT interested in integrating with communities – it is simple subjugation. Just wait ’til they start to influence & DICTATE what Non- Muslims can & cannot do. This Mosque will be a centre for paedophiles & criminal attacks on the locals. Read in one of the letters about a Mosque in Golders Green, London, UK. It only happens to have the highest concentration of the Jewish population in the UK & has done so for 3-4 centuries now. No real Muslim community there at all. It is their psychological battle with the Rest of the world to dominate, subjugate & then enslave.

    An interesting event recently occurred in once Catholic Ireland. Even though it is not directly connected to this article.
    In the small Connemara town of Oughterard stood an empty hotel.
    The Marxist islamic loving Irish government earmarked it to get renovated (at taxpayers expense) to house a group of “muslim refugees” sent to Ireland by Mrs Merkel.
    The locals got organised and picketed the place and barricaded the entrances preventing workmens access.
    The happy upshot was that the contractor has withdrawn from the site and the quisling government resettlement department must now impose these ‘guests’ on another gullible small rural community.
    This has been going on now for several years at the behest of the EU and many small Irish towns find themselves looking Mogadishu.

    Suzanna Chambers, obviously hasn’t read anything in the Quran or the history of the Murderous Ideology of Islam , otherwise she would be objecting as well.
