The authors examine the construction of an environment where Muslims are feared and loathed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This claim by the absurdly named &#8216;Commission&#8217; &#8211; it&#8217;s just a pressure group &#8211; that the UK is like East Germany in its treatment of Muslims and Islam is preposterous. Our broadcast media and institutions from politicians to the police fall over themselves to present Islam as a peaceful religion and its adherents as loyal, law- abiding citizens.<\/p>\n<p>The Islamic Human Rights Commission have been developing what they call the &#8216;Domination Hate Model of Intercultural Relations&#8217;. This says &#8220;hate crimes do not occur in a vacuum. Perpetrators are themselves victim citizens who have been mobilised by structural forces; namely the government and the media.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The only problem is, that is rubbish.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from the profligate and pointless &#8216;Prevent&#8217; programme and the Terrorism Act, which actually concerns many of us, the government have done nothing inimical to Muslims. Establishment politicians are constant in their praise of Islam, stressing how the terrorists have misinterpreted it. The broadcast media, with the possible exception of Channel 4 Dispatches and the occasional Panorama programme, is overwhelmingly supportive of Islam and Muslims.<\/p>\n<p>It is only some sections of the press which are antipathetic. Even then, if Muslim teachers did not beat children learning the Quran, if local authorities did not celebrate Eid rather than Christmas, if school boards did not try to turn their schools into Islamic enclaves, if Muslims did not write graffiti in Jewish cemeteries, there would be nothing to report.<\/p>\n<p>Negative images of Muslims and Islam come not from our government and the British broadcast media at all. The problem for Muslims is all the honest material about Islam all over the internet, mainly on YouTube and Facebook.<br \/>\nVideos made by Islamic State themselves of their agents beheading captives, of tearing down crosses outside churches, other videos of Muslims rioting in Croatia, spouting hatred against Jews on Al-Quds Day in London (ironically organised by IHRC on behalf of Stop the War), attacking soldiers returning from Afghanistan in East London, bombing and shooting people in Nairobi and Garissa, constant killing in Baghdad, the bombs in Istanbul and Beirut and now the atrocities in Paris, it just goes on and on.<\/p>\n<p>There is no getting away from the fact that the overwhelming majority of terrorists in the world are Muslim. There is no hiding that gangs of Muslim young men were convicted of the rape of young, insecure non-Muslim girls in town after town in the UK. There is no escaping the reality that all the recent cases of electoral fraud here have involved Muslims. There is no gain-saying that in case after case of restaurant and take-away food hygiene, it is Muslim establishments that are being fined. The Muslim community in this land needs to clean up its own act. Literally, in some aspects.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, in the wake of the carnage in Paris, the &#8216;Islamic Human Rights Commission&#8217; blames not Muslim terrorists but &#8216;unethical western foreign policy in the Middle East&#8217;. I have been at the forefront of objecting to British incursions in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria and to our Government&#8217;s support of the catastrophic &#8216;Arab Spring&#8217;. But when Muslims blame &#8216;the West&#8217; for the actions of other Muslims, is it any wonder that the rest of us react with loathing for Islam and all it stands for?<\/p>\n<p>Here is a word about the Islamic Human Rights Commission:<\/p>\n<p>Isa 59:3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. 4 None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.<\/p>\n<p>And here is one for them:<\/p>\n<p>Mark 1:15 The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A report published today claims Muslims in the UK live in &#8216;an environment of hate&#8217; &#8211; and the government is to blame.
