Robert Spencer notes that “a powerful statement of the right to sex slaves in Islam was delivered on May 25, 2011 by a female Kuwaiti politician, Salwa al-Mutairi, who spoke in favor of the Islamic practice of sexual slavery of non-Muslim women, emphasizing that the practice accorded with Islamic law and Islamic morality. She testified: […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Gerard Batten and the Question of Sex Slaves (Part One)
Nigel Farage said last Friday that he wants Gerard Batten out as UKIP leader for naming Tommy Robinson his adviser on rape gangs and prison reform. Farage complained about Batten’s “fixation with Tommy Robinson and discussing Islam.” And it’s true: Batten has been saying some disturbing things about Islam. What makes them most disturbing is […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Gerard Batten Suggests Muslim-Only Prisons (Part Three)
Gerard Batten should now follow up on his own suggestion, go on the offensive, appear repeatedly before the public, ideally on television, and make the following points: First, we know that there is a very grave safety problem in prisons where there are both Muslims and non-Muslims — as there now are everywhere in Great […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Gerard Batten Suggests Muslim-Only Prisons (Part Two)
To understand the scope of the prison conversion problem, consider that in the US, while Muslims make up 1% of the total population, they now make up 12-15% of the prison population, and an even higher percentage of the population in the most violent, maximum-security prisons. Between 2001 and 2014, a quarter-million prisoners converted, and […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Gerard Batten Suggests Muslim-Only Prisons (Part One)
Nigel Farage said Friday that he would seek to oust Gerard Batten as UKIP leader for his “fixation with Tommy Robinson and discussing Islam.” Batten has just named Tommy Robinson his adviser on rape gangs and prison reform. And reform is needed: prisons have become a fertile source of conversions to Islam. In the United […]
Robert Spencer video: UKIP’s Batten dares to note that Muslim rape gangs are made up of Muslims
In this new video, I discuss how UKIP leader Gerard Batten recently grasped the third rail of politics in the West, venturing where no other British or American politician has yet dared to go. According Sky News, Batten “linked Islam to the ‘industrialised sexual exploitation’ of girls across the country.” This connection is blazingly […]
UKIP Leader Gerard Batten Criticized by Nigel Farage for Telling the Truth (Part Two)
Robert Spencer noted in June: At a recent dinner of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), which he formerly headed, Farage said: “If dealing with Islamic fundamentalism becomes a battle between us and the entire religion, I’ll tell you the result: we’ll lose. We will simply lose….We absolutely have to get that Muslim majority living in […]
UKIP Leader Gerard Batten Criticized by Nigel Farage for Telling the Truth (Part One)
The Sky News headline was “UKIP leader Gerard Batten criticised by Nigel Farage for endorsing anti-Muslim rally,” and the article reported: Gerard Batten told a right-wing protest that Muslim child grooming gangs have been covered up and are a “social scandal.” Why “right-wing”? What makes it “right-wing” to protest the covering-up of Muslim grooming gangs? […]
UKIP leader Gerard Batten dares to link Muslim rape gangs to Islam
Why is this even remotely controversial? Because the denial and willful ignorance regarding the Muslim rape gangs’ connection to Islam is nigh universal in Britain today. In reality, however, the connection is obvious. One survivor of a Muslim rape gang in the UK said that her rapists would quote Quran to her, and believed their […]
