State owned media and incitement to murder

Posted on by

Vlad Tepes blog in cooperation with many fine people and organizations, coordinated by Gates of Vienna, has posted quite a few recent-history videos of and about Pim Fortuyn recently. There is a reason for it.

The government sponsored a campaign of demonization of former Member of Parliament, Pim Fortuyn and used the power of state owned media to create such a powerful and distorted image of him, that some ‘left wing activist’ eventually murdered him, despite the fact that he was a (to quote Mark Steyn) “Gay hedonist” and a classical liberal if not an actual socialist. Whatever he was, he was not a “far right wing politician” as he was reffered to by Dutch media constantly.

The exact same thing is being done to Geert Wilders and for the same reasons. He is running against the modern multicultural narrative and prefers free market economics as well as individual rights. Essentially classical liberalism as spelled out by people such as Thomas Jefferson.

When you see a set of events as we did with Mr. Fortuyn once, we can say ‘oh yes I can see how this may have led to that but who could have expected it.’

Well please have a look at the cartoon below published on state owned Dutch media and keep in mind, the bird is the symbol of Geert Wilders political party, the PVV

It doesn’t take a Derren Brown to see how this may influence the more suggestible of the Dutch population.

Now how about this for subtlety?

Any ideas who they are comparing Mr. Wilders, the man who frequently visits Israel and talks about protecting the now threatened Jewish and gay populations of the Netherlands from Muslims who preach the death of individuals from both groups, as a matter of common policy?

Still not sure? How about now….

For a comprehensive analysis of Geert’s current situation and that of Mr. Fortuyn, please see this post at Gates of Vienna. It also contains translations from Dutch media. It’s well worth the click.

It turns out there is such a thing as a stupid question. This guy asks why we are banning head-scarves in the 21st century instead of asking why women are still being forced to wear them. Mine Gott in Himmel, it’s like a black guy in the south wearing leg irons and shackles around to protest the actions of Abe Lincoln.

More selective enforcement by the Brits on Freedom of speech.

Islamic preacher who called Jews ‘filth’ to speak at London university

By way of TROP

Felix Allen

Sheikh Abdullah Hakim Quick

Guest speaker: Sheikh Abdullah Hakim Quick will lecture students at King’s College

A London university has been condemned for inviting an Islamic preacher with anti-Semitic and homophobic views to give a lecture to students.
Sheikh Abdullah Hakim Quick is due to speak at King’s College’s Strand campus at six tonight.
Peter Tatchell, of pressure group Outrage, accused university bosses of cowardice and “complicity with fundamentalism” by giving the preacher a public platform.
Sheikh Quick has denounced the “filth” of Jews and once gave a televised lecture in which he said the Islamic position on homosexuality is “death”. He added: “Muslims are going to have to take a stand [against homosexuals] and it’s not enough to call names.”
He is due to give a talk on the environment in an event organised by the University of London Union Islamic Society for its Green Week campaign.
Mr Tatchell said: “King’s College would not host a white supremacist who advocated racism or death to black people… King’s College has an equal opportunities policy that prohibits the promotion of hatred against minorities, but it is not enforcing it.
“The university is not a safe place for Jewish and gay students when it facilitates a vicious homophobe and anti-Semite like Sheikh Abdullah Quick.”
He claimed that the university’s attitude represented “collusion with the gateways to terrorism”.
A King’s College spokeswoman said Sheikh Quick’s talk would be on “environmental problems, Islamic solutions”, adding: “He has already spoken at other universities without controversy and there is no indication that the topic of his talk will be controversial.
“The Dean of King’s College London, who oversees multi-faith relations, and the president of the students’ union will attend the event. If they deem any comments from Sheikh Abdullah Hakim Quick to be offensive to minorities, the talk will be stopped.”
Sheikh Quick is also due to visit the University of East London at the weekend.
His website says he was born in America and completed a masters degree and a doctorate in African history at the University of Toronto, and has served as an imam in Los Angeles, Jamaica, Canada and Cape Town.

Infidel cyclist run over by a holy car of Riyadh

Posted on by

Vlad has to a small degree, focused on how Islam is antipathetic to the arts and music and musicians in particular. There are many reasons for this not the least of which is that artists tend to be the most sanctimonious of the leftists, not to mention strident advocates of multiculturalism. The other is that supporters and producers of the arts need to know, that other cultures, specifically Islam, do not see the arts as Americans do.

Celebrity culture is uniquely an American experience even if it has been exported to many western nations. Rome for example, loved and admired the arts but felt Artists overall, were considerably lower in status than people in the trades. I tend to agree with the Romans.

In any case, now cyclists have been targeted in Saudi not so much because they are cyclists, but because they are infidels. The trial, if there is one, and the sentence, if there is one, will be very revealing as to how sharia law will view this, if indeed it is a crime at all.

The bigger point is, that in a world with increasingly higher numbers of Muslims being brought into western nations, nations which have a profound culture of their own but are in denial of it, we will start to see the following.

Our culture, which allows for people to make themselves very vulnerable to strangers from time to time, will begin to change those behaviours. That we will have to start to examine our food and where it is from more. To not use bicycles trivially for exercise and sport where we may be vulnerable to strangers in cars.

‘Situational awareness’ will become something people learning more and more circumstances and not just something taught to spies and security personnel. We already see this in aviation to a very large degree. Aviation is merely the first area where western civilization has grudgingly changed its sense of security to accommodate the multi cultural fantasy. But it will not be the last.

Our refusal to accept the fact that we are indeed at war with Islam, as we have been historically more often than not, means we will have to come up with more and more creative reasons why we are losing and why its somehow OK, or more likely, our own fault. Civilization has already thrown Israel and by extension Jewish people, under the bus. Israel’s foreign policy has aggravated the peaceful Muslims and made victims of the ‘Palestinians’ and they deserve what they get or some other rationalization.

There is also of course, massive denial of the facts on the ground for Jewish people world wide and especially in universities. Have a look at this stunning case of selective enforcement at York U. This is a very serious matter. This means that York has allowed the most vicious and hostile people to western ideas, the very ideas a university is supposed to perpetuate, to set the agenda, and the parameters of who may and may not speak, and what ideas may or may not be presented to the student body.

Granted this example of the cyclist was in Saudi Arabia but this is about stages. With larger numbers of Muslims, you get a larger demand for more and more strict applications of sharia law. Already at Carleton U. in Canada, the main bar, Roosters Pub, which was rumoured to be one of the largest beer outlets in North America, was forced to go booze free to accommodate Muslim ‘students’* who felt they had a right to be in there without being offended by the presence of infidels drinking.

Much more disturbingly, the facts, which at the time where printed in local newspapers etc. where hushed up and its very difficult to find evdience of this now. This by the way, was in the 1990s or earlier. I went in and interviewed staff members myself who refused to speak on the matter or denied knowing anything about why a massively profitable institution became dry.

It will be well worth watching the trial of those arrested for deliberately running over foreign workers in the KSA who were cycling. It is the future of our own nations. First in the behaviour, the attacking of the vulnerable in any way possible in order to destroy our trust based culture, and then in the judicial process that follows. All this I guarantee until and unless we admit in the west, that we are indeed at war, with Islam.

How sexy; Politiken on it’s knees for Islam.

After a settlement to the Saudis, Middle Eastern and Australian Muslim groups, Politiken took a swipe at freedom in favour of sharia. “We apologize to anyone who was offended by our decision to reprint the cartoon drawing”. Although the paper stands by it’s decision to print what it wants, they are sorry for any hurt feelings. Islamist groups are thrilled and predictably the Oh I See welcomes the apology.

We should understand that pictures of Muhammed complimentary or not, were and still are, quite common and have not been met with very much if any incident, outside of the Jyllands-Posten episode. We also have to understand that within Islamic theology, the Quran can abrogate itself to suit it’s selected political purpose of the day. For a thorough understanding of such abrogation in Islam see here (second video) and here. Think of  it as an ‘in the heat of the moment’ or the ‘here and now’ doctrine, Muslim scripture in the ‘fast lane’. What better way to charge ahead against the ‘enemies of Islam’ than to conveniently abrogate the Quran to suit the present, chosen circumstance? Foolproof, I’d say.

” None of Our revelations do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, but We substitute something better or similar: Sura 2. The Cow-Verse 106.

The picture above is an illustration of Muhammed. Greek, 19th century. It is currently housed in the Benaki Museum in Athens. What would the Imams say? Or what of this one below, used as an illustration advertising soup stock powder? Would it be permitted as long as the soup were made without pork?


1928 German advertisement for bouillon extract shows Gabriel guiding Mohammed up to Allah.

There are thousands of depictions of Muhammed old and new, created by artists around the world including ones created in Muslim nations. The claim that he cannot be depicted in picture form is clearly false.

Danish newspaper apologises over Prophet Mohammed cartoon

A Danish newspaper on Friday became the first in the country to apologise for offending Muslims by printing a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed with a bomb-shaped turban, rekindling a heated debate about free speech.

Published: 5:38PM GMT 26 Feb 2010

Politiken said its apology was part of a settlement with a Saudi lawyer representing eight Muslim groups in the Middle East and Australia.

The daily drew strong criticism from Danish media, which previously had stood united in rejecting calls to apologise for 12 cartoons that sparked fierce protests in the Muslim world four years ago. Continue Reading →

Another Toronto 18 member goes free

Posted on by
National Post… BRAMPTON — After a surprise guilty plea yesterday, Toronto 18 member Jahmaal James is a free man.

James, 27, pleaded guilty in Superior Court to one count of participating in a terrorist group, an offence that carries a maximum 10-year jail term. He received seven years plus a day, but with time served taken into account on the customary two-for-one basis, he was to be freed from Maplehurst prison shortly after leaving court.

“[James] actually disassociated himself with the group before the arrests and moved in a different direction,” Justice Bruce Durno [aka dhimmi scumbag] said in approving the joint Crown-defence sentencing submission.

James, who spent just under three years and nine months in pretrial custody, was also handed three years probation, a lifetime weapons ban and an order requiring he submit a sample to the national DNA databank.

James, in a dark hoodie, blue shirt and close-cropped hair, chose to say nothing when asked by the judge if he wanted to make a statement.
James became involved with the terrorist group in 2005, Crown attorney Jason Wakely noted during his sentencing submission. In November of that year, James traveled from Toronto to Lahore, Pakistan, to obtain paramilitary training from one of the jihadist camps in Waziristan or the Northwest Frontier Province.

“His purpose was to later use his paramilitary training for the benefit of [the terrorist group],” Mr. Wakely told the court, noting the group’s goal was to further the cause of violent jihad.

But while in Pakistan, James contracted a serious medical condition that limited his health and mobility, the judge heard.

“This disrupted his plan,” Mr. Wakely said. “The Crown does not allege that James actually received paramilitary training.”

While overseas, James kept in frequent contact with a member of the terrorist group, speaking in “guarded language” because he was conscious of surveillance, Mr. Wakely said. But weeks after returning to Toronto in March 2006, he became “disgruntled” with the way the group was operating, and gradually severed ties.

He was arrested that June.

Defence lawyer Donald McLeod said his client “saw the light” after his return from Pakistan, realizing the terrorist group’s goals did not line up with his view of the Muslim religion.

James had mixed emotions about yesterday’s proceedings, Mr. McLeod said, “but I think now he can look forward to sort of doing things differently, better.”

What exactly does the term ‘Free country’ mean please?

Pub landlord given first smoking ban jail sentence

By Liz Hull
Last updated at 11:04 PM on 26th February 2010

A former pub landlord yesterday became the first person to be jailed in connection with the smoking ban.

Nick Hogan, 43, was sentenced to six months in prison for refusing to pay a fine imposed for flouting the legislation.

Two years ago Hogan, who ran two pubs in Bolton, became the first landlord convicted of breaking the law for allowing his customers to routinely light up in his bars.
Nick Hogan was the first person to be prosecuted under the new smoking laws. He will spend six months in prison after refusing to pay a fineNick Hogan was the first person to be prosecuted under the new smoking laws. He will spend six months in prison after refusing to pay a fine

A judge fined Hogan, of Chorley, Lancashire, £3,000 and ordered him to pay £7,236 in costs after finding him guilty of four charges under the Health Act 2006.

But the married father-of-two refused to pay the fine and yesterday, after repeatedly being hauled back before the courts, a judge sitting at Bolton Crown Court finally lost patience and jailed him.

Last night his wife, Denise, 53, who is also a publican, said she was disgusted that her husband would be in prison alongside murderers and rapists.

‘Criminals and bad people go to prison not law-abiding businessmen like my husband who are trying to earn an honest living,’ she said. ‘Nick doesn’t deserve to go to jail, all he has done is speak his mind and people simply don’t like it.

‘Ninety per cent of people who come into my pub want to smoke, even the non-smokers think there should be a choice. These laws are ridiculous.’

At the hearing, in January 2008, magistrates were told Hogan held a ‘mass light-up’ in his two pubs, the Swan Hotel and Barristers’ Bar, in Bolton, on the day the smoking ban came into force in July 2007.

He was visited by inspectors from the local authority, who found letters taped to pub tables advising customers they had the ‘freedom to choose whether or not to smoke’.

They also saw regulars smoking on five separate occasions.

Hogan, who has since sold his lease for both the pubs, was cleared of one count of failing to prevent his customers from smoking and four further charges of obstructing council officers.

Deborah Arnott, chief executive of the anti-smoking group ASH, insisted it was a myth that the anti-smoking legislation had forced pubs out of business.

She said: ‘Many pubs have shifted their focus to serving food, so they have changed their nature.’

She added: ‘Mr Hogan is the exception, not the norm, because compliance rates for the ban are way above 90 per cent.’

First reactions to Pim Fortuyn’s murder in Holland

Posted on by

I cannot thank V.H. and Baron Bodessey enough for this recent string of videos showing the progression of events leading up to the murder of Dutch liberal politician, Pim Fortuyn. His demonization by the government and the press, I do not know how much the press is owned or controlled by the government but if it is anything like Canada or England, it’s nearly entirely so, certainly is what inspired the leftist, sympathetic to Islam, to murder Mr. Fortuyn. The press mis-characterize him as “far right wing” exactly as they label Geert Wilders. Yet Pim Fortuyn was well known as, to quote Mark Steyn, a gay hedonist. About as far from right wing as you can get.

Perhaps later I will assemble the clips in some sort of chronological order into one film so it can be more easily seen how this all took place. For the moment, please watch the first footage we have of the reaction to Pim’s murder.

Official Statement Regarding The Abuse Of EDL Prisoners

Posted on by

Here is a predictable set of events. Government selectively enforces various speech and thought crimes laws to advantage themselves, then selectively enforce prisoner treatment laws to cause maximum damage to political opponents. Sexual offenders get special accommodation in prisons, but EDL members are put in the same population as the violent Muslim thugs they are protesting about. We, ladies and gentlemen, we pathetic remnants of the world of genuine rational liberalism, we are well and truly fucked.

From Liberties Alliance Org.

The following is a statement from the English Defence League:

To all EDL members

As you may well already be aware members of the English Defence League have been arrested and charged for relatively “minor” offences.

Members who are prepared to stand up against the rising tide of Islamofascism and its adherents are being “hung out to dry” by our weak politicians in the hope they can salvage much needed Muslim votes in order to retain governance. This is just another ploy to use the “Muslim block vote” so other parties are denied potential seats in the houses of parliament.

It has come to our attention that some EDL members who are currently serving short prison time are actually being targeted by imprisoned radicalised jihadist gangs, consequently they have been beaten and will continue to get beaten as prison authorities “turn a blind eye” to events unfolding under their very roof!

We the English Defence League condemn such apathy, such wanton ignorance or, more likely, deliberate targeting of EDL members!

EVERY prison has a “duty of care” for its inmates. Prisoners MUST be afforded protection from harm as that is their right. They cannot be discriminated against by virtue of their race, colour, religious beliefs, sexual orientation or political views.

EVERY human being, be they prisoner, detainee, terrorist or asylum seeker has the basic human right to be treated with dignity and respect. They have the right to food, housing, PROTECTION, education and assistance from the law. They have the right not to be exploited, tortured or intimidated. As a country we have agreed to abide by the European Convention on Human Rights, as a nation we have the Human Rights Act to protect us from those who would seek to harm us or prevent us from enjoying our civil liberties.

If the British prison system fails EDL members in ANY of the above mentioned points then we as a movement will relentlessly pursue EVERY avenue to secure their safety while serving prison time. Failure on the part of prison governors to ensure the safety of EDL members while in their care WILL result in the petitioning of government, liable governors, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman, and ANY other authority who are accountable for the Health, Safety and Wellbeing of inmates.

It is also worth noting that Prison service Order Number 1215 clearly states that……

“This PSO supports the delivery of the Performance Standards on Conduct and Discipline and the proper delivery of the Security Standard and all standards relating to the treatment of staff and prisoners.”

If prison staff have been found to be complacent, negligent or wantonly ignorant in the above regard then they themselves are in breach of a “Prison Service Order”

York U, afraid of offending anti-semites, prevents Jewish and Christian groups from displaying…

…And times being what they are. Well, what are times exactly? Times are such that groups who wish to advocate positions not in accord with the far left or Islam on campus are prevented from doing so by the university itself. Times are such that we imagined could never happen again in history and perhaps even doubted they happened at all.

Of course the modern cowards and those who capitulate will have a good reason for violating every precept that is sacred to Western Civilization. But cowards always have a good reason. It is worth noting the reasons given, because the template itself should never exist as it was created to lend itself to selective enforcement by design, if not deliberately, inevitably. To be clear, the people involved with “Israel Apartheid week” could never pass the qualifications asked by the campus to those from the pro Israel side.

To the management of York University, how do you think you would have made out at the Nuremberg Trials?

York University discriminates against Christian and Jewish coalition ahead of Israel Apartheid Week

Written by —
Wednesday, 24 February 2010
TORONTO – At the last minute, York University has cancelled events organized by a coalition of Canadian pro-Israel students and organizations due to “security” concerns. The events organized by the Imagine With Us coalition were scheduled for this week in anticipation of Israel Apartheid Week (IAW), which begins on March 1.
The Imagine With Us coalition – a “multi-faith, multi-political movement that is concerned with maintaining Canadian values and keeping our campuses safe from hatred, discrimination and radical incitement, particularly from those subscribing to radical Islam,” explained Michael Mostyn, national director of public affairs for B’nai Brith Canada – is led by My Canada, a non-partisan organization of young adult Christians who are passionate about a variety of social justice issues, and B’nai Brith Canada.

On Monday and Thursday of this week, events were scheduled at York which included the participation of Middle East expert and political commentator Daniel Pipes, Israeli scholar of Arabic literature and political discourse Dr. Mordechai Kedar, ormer PLO terrorist Walid Shoebat, human right activist Rev. Majed El Shafie, social justice activist and founder of My Canada Faytene Kryskow, and B’nai Brith Canada CEO Frank Dimant. The events were scheduled to be streamed live to campuses across Canada and to be viewable online internationally.

On Monday morning, York University informed Imagine With Us campus partners Christians United for Israel (CUFI) that the university was cancelling the event due to the fact that Imagine With Us did not meet their requirements. York had required that the organizers include a formidable police and campus security presence paid for by the organizers, a list of all attendees in advance, a minute-by-minute synopsis of all speakers’ talking points and a ban on public advertising of the event at York and on satellite campuses.

The Dutch Ummah
Several weeks ago a Dutch reader sent us a set of essays by an expatriate Dutch writer named Arthur Legger. I forwarded two of them — one from The Wall Street Journal and the other from IFPS — to our Flemish correspondent VH, and asked his opinion of them.

As regular readers know, VH is very well-informed on both Belgian and Dutch affairs, and documents his opinions copiously using multiple sources. His reply to me was so thoughtfully pessimistic that I was taken by surprise — VH has an invariably sunny and optimistic disposition, but his outlook for the Netherlands was startlingly gloomy.

With his kind permission, I have merged and edited two of his emails into the essay below. My questions to VH have been interpolated in italics:

The “traditional Dutch liberties” that according to the WSJ existed from 1997 until 2005 had in fact already ceased to exist since the immigration flow started to boom in the mid-1970s. Many non-left-wing and conservative Dutch people learned to be careful after that, to go with the flow, and to share real opinions only with the most trusted friends, and in private.

In the eighties a politician was convicted for stating: “When we have the chance, we will abolish the multicultural society”. And when Frits Bolkestein of the VVD expressed his critique of multiculture and mass immigration in parliament in the early 1990s, a very silent electorate rewarded him with a substantial increase in votes, only to be betrayed by Bolkestein being kicked upstairs to Brussels, to the EU…

In Arthur Legger’s excellent essay, he quotes Dr. Hans Daudt: “Via the main political parties the traditional regent families are still in power.” That, however, may be only partly the case with the royalty and its entourage.

For among that “entourage” is the multicultural elite, and they influence each other and hold power. Princess Maxima — who in 2002 was introduced to the ins and outs of Dutch society by extreme left-wingers and multiculturalists and ex-DDR admirers like Andrée van Es (now Secretary General of the Ministry of Internal Affairs) and Paul Rosenmöller (ex Pol Pot propagandist who, as a GreenLeft, easily got away with that) — once stated to Gretta Duisenberg (maybe the most notorious Arafat- and Hamas-admirer and anti-Semite in the Netherlands) that Dutch identity does not exist. Duisenberg: “One time Princess Maxima was there at a reception, and I passed by her, and she called me and said: ‘I want to say that I really admire you’.”

That is how bad it is with the Netherlands. Continue Reading →

Daily Mail, 24 February 2010

Of all the issues of concern to the public, immigration is possibly the most explosive — and the one about which the most lies are continuing to be told.

During the period that Labour has been in office, mass immigration has simply changed the face of Britain. The total number of immigrants since 1997 is pushing three million.

Ministers claim that immigration policy has been driven principally to help the economy. They have always denied that they actually set out deliberately to change the ethnic composition of the country.

Well, now we know for a certainty that this is not true. The Government embarked on a policy of mass immigration to change Britain into a multicultural society — and they kept this momentous aim secret from the people whose votes they sought.

Worse still, they did this knowing that it ran directly counter to the wishes of those voters, whose concerns about immigration they dismissed as racist; and they further concealed official warnings that large-scale immigration would bring about significant increases in crime.

The truth about this scandal was first blurted out last October by Andrew Neather, a former Labour Party speechwriter.

He wrote that until the new points-based system limiting foreign workers was introduced in 2008 — in response to increasing public uproar — government policy for the previous eight years had been aimed at promoting mass immigration.

The ‘driving political purpose’ of this policy, wrote Neather, was ‘to make the UK truly multicultural’ — and one subsidiary motivation was ‘to rub the Right’s nose in diversity and render their arguments out of date’.

Misters, however, went to great lengths to keep their real intentions secret from the public — with, said Neather, a ‘paranoia’ that these would reach the media — since they knew their core white working-class voters would react very badly.

Accordingly, a report about immigration by a government advisory unit, which formed the core of a landmark speech in 2000 announcing the loosening of border controls, went through several drafts before it was finally published — and the Government’s true intentions about changing Britain into a multicultural society were removed from the final version.

After revealing all this, Neather subsequently tried to backtrack, saying that his views had been twisted out of all recognition by the media. They hadn’t been.

Nevertheless, Jack Straw, who was Home Secretary at the time the immigration policy was changed, said he had read press reports of Neather’s remarks with incredulity since they were ‘the reverse of the truth’.

Now we know, however, that they were indeed the truth. We know this only because details of the advisory unit’s report which were excised from the final published version — just as Neather said — have been emerging into the public domain through Freedom of Information requests.

Please read the rest of this important article at the source here:

And when you are done reading that you may enjoy reading an article from the Daily Express which explains how the Labour party of the U.K. has made it quite clear that if you oppose mass immigration into England  your all racists and you need formal reeducation.

LABOUR SAY WE ARE ALL RACISTS

Public opinion about migrants could be changed through education, the document said

Tuesday February 23,2010

By Macer Hall

LABOUR dismissed the British public’s widespread opposition to mass immigration as “racism”, a Government document revealed yesterday.

Officials made it clear that public opinion was strongly against relaxing border controls.

But ministers were urged to ignore voters’ “racist” views and press ahead with a secret policy to encourage migrants to flood into Britain. Whitehall experts even proposed a major propaganda campaign to soften up voters in preparation for the mass influx of newcomers.

The details were laid bare in the original draft of a policy document released for the first time under the Freedom of Information Act.

Last night critics accused the Government of snubbing the concerns of British citizens in their deliberate pursuit of a multicultural society.

Sir Andrew Green, chairman of the population think-tank Migrationwatch UK, said: “This report confirms that ministers deliberately rode roughshod over public opinion in adopting a policy of mass immigration.

“They concealed their real intentions in the hope they would benefit from the immigrant vote without losing their working-class supporters. They are now paying the price.”

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Grayling said: “The Government has simply not been telling the truth about its policies on immigration. More and more evidence is now emerging to show that they deliberately planned a big jump in immigration for their own political purposes.”

“Now they are trying to rewrite history to pretend those decisions never happened. Their conduct over all of this has been a complete disgrace.”

Written by staff at the Home Office and Cabinet Office in 2000 in the run-up to the expansion of the European Union into eastern Europe, the report made it clear that voters wanted tougher rather than looser border ­controls.

“It is correct that public opinion favours relatively restrictive policies on immigration,” the document said. But demonstrating thinly disguised contempt for much of the British public, the document said that this opposition was linked to racist ­attitudes.

It said: “Recent research shows that anti-immigrant sentiment is closely correlated with racism rather than economic motives. The most negative attitudes are found among those who have relatively little direct contact with migrants but see them as a threat.”

Ministers also ignored warnings that immigration would lead to an explosion in organised crime including trafficking in drugs, illegal migrants and prostitutes. “Migration has opened up new opportunities for organised crime,” the report insisted.

The document, titled Going With The Flow: Managing Migration in the 21st Century, went on to urge the Government to manipulate public opinion on the issue.

“A new approach to migration policy would need to be not only accompanied by, but underpinned by, a clear strategy for public opinion and public debate,” the report argued.

“Government has tended to assume that negative public opinion on migration is a given that is beyond its control. In fact, research (and common sense) suggests that past governments have had a significant influence on public opinion.”

It added: “On other issues, government has been strategic and proactive in addressing public opinion, it could do so on migration.” The document even suggested the more migrants that moved to the UK, the more the British people would come to accept them.

It said: “Education and people’s personal exposure to migrants make them less likely to be anti-migrant.” The document went on to be heavily edited before being officially published in 2001, with all references to public opposition stripped out.

References to migration opening up “new opportunities” for organised crime were also expunged from the final version. The row over Labour’s secret immigration policy erupted last year when former ministerial adviser Andrew Neather admitted the Government had a “driving political purpose” to spread multiculturalism in Britain.

He said ministers had deliberately set out to use immigration to undermine Labour’s opponents and “rub the Right’s noses in diversity”. Border and Immigration Minister Phil Woolas last night rejected the criticism. He said: “This report confirms there was no open-door policy on migration.

“It makes quite clear that migration is not a substitute for Government policies on skills, education and training of British citizens, which the Government has invested in over the past decade. The Home Secretary at the time was also criticised for changes to the immigration policy being too tough.”

“We have tightened them still further. Our new flexible points-based system gives us greater control of those coming to work or study from outside Europe, ensuring that only those that Britain need can come. Britain’s borders are stronger than ever before.”

The fact that Muslims have all the children and the oil revenues mean that university campus’s are demographically tilted towards brainwashed Muslims aided by self blinded leftists have pretty much set the agenda, and all pretence to scientific objectivity, or adjusting views post hoc to sit with the facts are gone. It’s about Marxism or some disguised version of it, and hatred of Israel.

Even so, I applaud the efforts of these people even if it is putting out the stable fire after the horses are all dead.

What is interesting, is how fast this video got views on youtube not to mention comments after I put it up. There is nothing like something which questions the demonization of Israel to get fast comments nd lots of views. A truly politically-incorrect point of view.

Meanwhile in the Islamic world, 12 year old boys are taught to cut the heads off of people who they don’t agree with religiously. Yet the political left in the west seem church-mouse quiet on that issue. Do not watch if you are sensitive at all. Do not watch if there are children present. Perhaps I should just advise you to, ‘do not watch’ the video below. However it is a stark contrast. Universities and leftists and Muslims siccesfully demonize Israel as an entity altogether, yet Islam is not taken to account for what you see below. This video is of a 12 year old boy cutting the head off of some captive. I suspect its a larger violation of the Geneva convention than… well any other one since Genghis Khan.

Spy chief: We risk a police state

Dame Stella Rimington, the former head of MI5, has warned that the fear of terrorism is being exploited by the Government to erode civil liberties and risks creating a police state.

Dame Stella accused ministers of interfering with people’s privacy and playing straight into the hands of terrorists.

“Since I have retired I feel more at liberty to be against certain decisions of the Government, especially the attempt to pass laws which interfere with people’s privacy,” Dame Stella said in an interview with a Spanish newspaper.

“It would be better that the Government recognised that there are risks, rather than frightening people in order to be able to pass laws which restrict civil liberties, precisely one of the objects of terrorism: that we live in fear and under a police state,” she said. Continue Reading →
