Video: Muslim protesters jeer British soldiers returning from Iraq

posted at 9:18 pm on March 10, 2009 by Allahpundit

An utter disgrace, but possibly a useful one per this intriguing detail buried in the Daily Mail’s report:

[T]he Muslim protesters were unrepentant about their abusive attack on the soldiers.

Care assistant Abu Omar, 30, said:’ If Hitler had committed those crimes noone would be cheering, and they shouldn’t just because they are British.

‘They are 21st century Nazis.’

Teacher Sayful Islam, self-styled leader of the Luton branch of al-Muhajiroun – the now banned radical Muslim organisation led by Sheikh Omar Bakri – was prominent amongst the demonstrators.

Al-Muhajiroun is an infamous jihadist outfit organized by Omar Bakri Mohammed, the British Islamist kingpin currently in exile in Lebanon. Rusty and the Jawas keep tabs on them and suspected them of being behind a similarly notorious protest three years ago which you’ll likely remember; even the signs look similar. If that’s who organized today’s demonstration, MI5 at least got a good look at some potential suspects. There were about 20 in all according to the news clip posted by Gateway Pundit.

Britain being Britain, the Mail wonders if they can be prosecuted for inciting “racial hatred.” By jeering troops?

Notice how the “jeering Muslims” never want to leave the U.S. or Great Britain to go back to Muslim countries? Gee…if they don’t like the U.S. or England, then get the hell out……….

The soldiers were restrained in a way the protesters weren’t. Had they been real Nazis, the protesters would not be alive.

Bacon is the answer.

Spirit of 1776 on March 10, 2009 at 9:24 PM

At one point a man climbed onto a roof and threw a packet of bacon at the Muslim group.

And he will no doubt be arrested for a hate crime by the PC Brown government.

That’s nice of them, presenting themselves so they can be watched, photographed, followed and their associates followed.

Good thing the adherents of a stone age religion have the intelligence of a caveman to go with it.

The British People can do better than that but they let the Muslims in the door and have Domestic Terrorists to piss on

Europe has millions of them to deal with now.

The circle of Freedom grows smaller and the circle of Terrorism and Islam grows larger…Obama loves it. The destruction of America is on the Agenda.

The multi-culti Brits deserve this and more.. this is what happens when you are an open home to Muslim terrorists – and Britain IS HOME to so many terrorists.

The police should have turned their backs and allowed the soldiers free reign to respond, see how quickly the jerkwad muslims would have had those signs wrapped around their heads.

Britain being Britain, they will ban future parades for being breaches of the peace and threaten to prosecute soldiers for incitement of racial hatred.

After all, they were marching in plain site of muslims. That has to be a crime somehow.

It is stuff like this that leads me to believe that the UK is finished.

I saw the movie “28 Days Left” a few years ago. I realized that the UK as it is, is really not even worth saving. I didn’t care about the characters in the movie at all. They were like the zombies in some respects. Everybody was lost if you know what I mean.

To fight effectively to prevent what has happened to the UK from happening here, we have to not be lost. Only convictions can fight that kind of hate and belief. There is no time for doubts when in a cage fight with Muslims.

The ‘real’I.R.A have killed 2 british soldiers in northern ireland,and a policeman.The first for 12 years.

The UK is gone.

We need to start looking for ways to excise this cancer before it takes hold here – if it hasn’t already.

Although our First Amendment deals with religious freedom our Eighth Amendment deals with excessive punishment …

“Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.”

Re-read that. I’m no lawyer but with no interest mortgages being made to accomodate Muslims in MN one might argue that American citizens are getting excessive fines / mortgages / closing fees compared to Muslims.

Add Sharia law into the mix with its literal eye for an eye punishment (which, I believe would be the stronger argument) one might argue that Islam, as practiced, should be outlawed per our Constitution.

Of course the UK twits can’t condemn this crap without getting the vapors over whether it’s unfair to call them muslims. That is one screwed up country!

Blake on March 10, 2009 at 10:29 PM

One might as well call on the followers of Adolf Hitler, “Mein Kampf” and Nazism to determine what is right and what is wrong as to call on the sick followers of Mohammad, the sick Pedophile, the sick Koran and sick Islam to do it, as they are all the same show just under a different tent.

And… why the hell are these muslims in Britain? Why don’t they simply go back to their peace-loving part of the world and fester?

ErinF on March 10, 2009 at 10:31 PM

Perhaps now they’ll kick the beheaders out of England? Or… perhaps they need another terrorist attack on their soil to do that.

ErinF on March 10, 2009 at 10:33 PM

Guess I’m in a minority here, but I think the
Brits will, at some point, say “Enough” and start clearing the decks regardless of political appeasement factors. These things gather fury as they go. Likewise, I think, in mainland Europe at some point in the near future. A couple of major terrorist attacks plus some other priming factors will show the jihadis and probably many Muslim innocents, that Europeans are quite good at killing once they get started. There are many tensions right now, and it appears to me there is beginning to be some pushback against immigrant Muslim aggressiveness. It won’t end nicely.

Apparently the magic Muslims have no fear about radicalizing the indigenous Britains by such provocations.

This looked like another litmus test on how strong Muslim influence is becoming. Britain isn’t quite dead yet. Huge swaths of the nation outside of the major cities hardly know sacred Muslims grace Britain’s shores. It’s only when you see Britain from the middle of one of the urban tumors of Muslim squalor that the nation looks doomed. It is however probably unable to right itself from within the current structure of the nation as it is right now. A reboot with a temporary anarchical period of nasty unpleasantness for every one but most especially the Muslim diversity assets will prevail.

It is surprising that no one has mentioned the period of the Danegeld and what became of the overbearing Danes in Britain overnight.

I say with a cold smile…woe unto Islam.

BL@KBIRD on March 10, 2009 at 10:36 PM

England has given their Country to the Muslims. I believe it is to late for them now. God Bless the Soldiers. Now we need to keep our eyes open in this Country. They should have beaten those spineless protesters.

I’m not sure how they’re structured in MN, but in Denmark, Sharia-compliant loans are a joke.

They avoid the creation of debt by having the bank buy the property, then taking out a long-term 30 year rental agreement with the bank.

but,when you have Muslim extremist’s who are living in
America,Canada,England as examples,who would rather kill,
any member of mentioned military,is quite another matter!

In this War on Terror,its the military and families,who are
taking the brunt,as well as their lives,sacrificed for free

and to allow,these Jihadys free speech in the countries they
hate,

is a slap in the face to said countries,and to the Soldiers

As I said, that’s the weaker of the 2 arguments I proposed.

Take a look at the 8th Amendment dealing with excessive bails, fines and cruel and unusual punishment.

Cruel and unusual punishment is banned per our Constitution. I’m hoping an enterprising lawyer can make the case that cruel and unusual religions can also be banned, per our Constitution.

We don’t have eye for an eye punishment here, period.

Throw in the angle of no interest mortgages for Muslims only for good measure. I understand the mortgage interest is added to the principal making their monthly payments higher but can you get a loan like that? Maybe, but isn’t what they’re doing in Minnesota explicitly catering to one religious group over everyone else?

BowHuntingTexas on March 10, 2009 at 10:53 PM

For the generation of my parents the word ‘London’ is synonymous with hope and freedom. When my country was occupied by the national-socialists the BBC offered a daily glimpse of hope, in the darkness of Nazi tyranny. Millions of my country men listened to it, illegally. The words ‘This Is London’ were a symbol for a better world coming soon. If only the British and Canadian and American soldiers were here.

What will be transmitted forty years from now? Will it still be ‘This Is London’? Or will it be ‘this is Londonistan’? Will it bring us hope, or will it signal the values of Mecca and Medina? Will Britain offer submission or perseverance? Freedom or slavery?

The choice is ours.

Ladies and gentlemen,

We will never apologize for being free. We will never give in. We will never surrender.

Freedom must prevail, and freedom will prevail.

The ‘real’ I.R.A on the terrorist list ambushed British soldiers killing two and pizza delivery men.The soldiers were due to go to Afghanistan the following day.

Three killings in two days,this is more of a threat to our security .

We have been attacked,why is it not being discussed(Ed/Allah)? Is it only terrorism when muslims are involved?

Or only terrorism when Americans get killed.

How can people here sit in judgement of us and our policies
when they have no idea what is going on.

Am I a Brit?…No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express!

I’m on the east coast of Canada, 20 miles inland from the sea in a tidal river valley unsurpassed on the planet for beauty.

I’ve been visiting several British blogs to try and get a feel for what seems to be happening. At first it was difficult to differentiate between political leanings as all mainstream parties are almost indistinguishable as were the posters at each site. But then I looked at the links column and saw what they claimed to represent. I didn’t bother with the BNP sites as I wanted to see who was who in the ruling groups. Their is much denial everywhere and the term racist is used by all to chill opinion. But there is common sense in every one as well. Harry’s Place is a new labour site that is in a turmoil of angst, buyers remorse and die hard socialist dreamery. Cranmer is a conservative site and seems slightly saner yet on all political sites there is open admission of the reluctance to speak freely because of the need to go after the sweet blocks of Muslim voters to be gained. No one/rarely someone openly speaks of fear of the Muslims but you can sense the unease and unreality of it for them. It aint over til the fat lady beheads the queen as they say. But there won’t be a fully peaceful resolution to scouring the shire.

joe_doufu on March 11, 2009 at 12:53 AM

I see a lot of people making comments how that would never happen here.

I remind you of the posted article on Hot Air about sharia loans? If you are a Minnesota taxpayer, you are paying the mortgages and taking the risk for Muslims to get interest-free, state guaranteed mortgages.

In Minneapolis, we brought about 70,000 refugees here and their kids are now US citizens. The FBI is watching them now as 20 young adults (those teenage citizens of the refugees) disappeared last year and one of them turned up a suicide bomber.

In other words, it can happen here. I doubt returning soldiers from Iraq or Afghanistan will be parading through Minneapolis.

jusgottabeme on March 11, 2009 at 12:54 AM

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry reading peoples interpretation of what they think is going on in the U.K.

What do i know i only live here.

Again London is not the whole of the U.K. It’s like me saying san francisco is a representitive of you all.I take it that you all wear leather thongs.

You are all deluded if you believe we are just rolling over in the face of a new enemy domestic or foreign.

We disagree with U.S policy on the best way to deal with the problems both our nations face.

We are a country seeped in history and tradition,we have to learn from it.

Again why has this incident made you all foaming at the mouth with glee.

A terrorist group has killed two british soldiers and a policeman,what should our government do?

If you are all claiming we are scared of terrorists what should our response be.If al-qaeda had killed british soldiers on british soil , would it be different?

This has wider implication’s.If it escalates and troops are needed on the ground here,then they won’t be going to Afghanistan.

May I suggest that you read up on British history since July, 1945. That should tell you why you now have these problems with Muslims.

As for the IRA, it is mere opportunity. They now have a friend in the White House. Of course they are going to take advantage of it.

Again why has this incident made you all foaming at the mouth with glee.

A terrorist group has killed two british soldiers and a policeman,what should our government do?

If you are all claiming we are scared of terrorists what should our response be.If al-qaeda had killed british soldiers on british soil , would it be different?

This has wider implication’s.If it escalates and troops are needed on the ground here,then they won’t be going to Afghanistan.

I agree that some of the criticism here may be a bit unfair. We consider our Brit cousins and the UK to be a significant part of our world and fret about the appearence of an overabundance of tolerance in the name of political correctness by your leaders. We would like to again see the UK of Churchill and Thatcher rather than Blair and Brown. We may be in process of getting a dose of the same thing here.
At any rate, we do wish you well,..perhaps you might look on our carping as brother to brother, rather than as entirely unrelated countries. I don’t say that lightly.

Oldenglish,

I am talking about the serious problems with irish terrorist groups not muslim’s .

As it stands now I.R.A and spin off’s have killed more British and irish people then al-qaeda.

There is palpable fear of a return to those dark times.It is like having flashbacks and those images that we have tried to forget are back.

We supported you on 9/11,’shoulder to shoulder’.You all seemed to just ignore these important events over the last few days and what effect it has had.
Instead choosing to focus on the belief that our country has gone to the dogs and the usual insults.

The I.R.A has always had friends in the White House,that was one of the problems.

mags,

Your country is dead. You need to move out of the denial stage and into acceptance. The sooner you do that the better you’ll feel.

if they don’t like the U.S. or England, then get the hell out……….

Why are we giving them a choice? This is our country, our civilization, and it is up to us to protect ourselves. Reforming Islam or trying to make these people like us should not be our concern. If the so-called Muslim moderates want reform then great — but they need to fight for it back in their own countries, not here in the West.

Every non-citizen Muslim should be deported, and any citizen Muslim advocating sharia/jihad, or giving aide and comfort to the West’s enemies, or preaching Koranic hate against infidels should be stripped of their citizenship and deported. And all immigration from Muslim countries should cease immediately. This is the only way to ensure that England and other Western countries aren’t taken over by stealth jihad and, eventually, sharia law.

Add Sharia law into the mix with its literal eye for an eye punishment (which, I believe would be the stronger argument) one might argue that Islam, as practiced, should be outlawed per our Constitution.

I think you’re right, BHT, but I also think that such would require a constitutional amendment. Islam should not be treated as a religion; it should be treated as a political ideology which is completely incompatible with our Western law and way of life, and which is at war against us and our Western allies. It is an enemy, and it should be treated as such, not tolerated.

“Rivers of blood”

That was the good old days when conservatives were actually conservatives, not afraid to talk about immigration and the effect it has on society.

If only we had listened…

2Brave2Bscared on March 11, 2009 at 2:47 AM

Angryed,

So my country is dead.The astounding level of ignorance about us is evident in your comment and others.

If you are so well informed about my country and it’s history why is no-one addressing the terrorist attack against british troops in northern Ireland.

Is it not terrorism?You should be supporting us.Our troops have died along side yours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

To not even recognise our loss because it doesn’t fit into the ‘muslim terrorists’ situation is pathetic.
