Taxpayer-Funded Islamophobia Awareness
Did you know that November is ‘Islamophobia Awareness Month’? Many organisations have been marking the occasion, from University College London to the National Centre for Diversity (yes, that really exists). But what about taxpayer-funded institutions? I have done a recce for Daily Sceptic readers, and have the results below:

Are there any other Religions that demand so much attention when their membership is infinite & is under no threat whatsoever , even when it advertises itself with endless violence & cruelty !
It is your gov’t shoving this down your throat. Ask any mp.
I would support the Scout’s “Learn about Islam” program.
How about this: their founder was an illiterate warlord. He bought, sold and kept slaves. He killed quite a few people, including people who surrendered to him. In his fifties he married a six year old girl and had sex with her from the age of nine.
Afterwards perhaps a few examples of day-to-day life of religious minorities and women in Islamic countries.
Don’t forget about his encounter with the men of Al Zutt.

There’s even doubt cast over the fact the paedo prophet ever existed. Robert Spencer wrote an entire book on the subject;

Mrs Jamster suggests that every boatload of illegal immigrants arriving on our shores should be welcomed by a stall handing out free bacon butties and the option of either a stiff whisky or a refreshing gin and tonic, depending upon the ambient air temperature. Anyone refusing either or both of the proffered typically British refreshments is to be immediately placed back in the dinghy and told to bugger off back to France.
Or perhaps they could discuss the joys a young courting couple in Rome experienced when they parked their car for a canoodle in a park only to have 3 immigrant scumbags attack the car and drag them out. The guy was beaten up and then got to hear his fiancee screaming as the filfth raped her.
Wouldn’t it be lovely if we could switch the clock back to 1950 or so and prevent the importation of so many adherents of this violent Religion. I’m sick to death of hearing about Islam, Muslims and everything to do with them.
I am not Islamophobic. A phobia is an irrational fear. It is not irrational to be wary of Islam as practised by many prominent Muslims so my dislike and distrust of Islam is not a phobia. QED
Gordon Bennett! How much of an obsessive fruit loop would you have to be to undertake a PhD focusing on ‘Islamophobia’? I’d say embarking on one about Anglophobia would be more justified and a better use of one’s time and effort, if you were so academically inclined. The four stages of Islamic conquest. This is stage one: Infiltration; ”Muslims begin moving to non-Muslim countries in increasing numbers and the beginning of cultural conflicts are visible, though often subtle. First migration wave to non-Muslim “host” country. Appeal for humanitarian tolerance from the host society. Attempts to portray Islam as a peaceful & Muslims as victims of misunderstanding and racism (even though Islam is not a ‘race’). High Muslim birth rate in host country increase Muslim population. Mosques used to spread Islam and dislike of host country & culture. Calls to criminalize “Islamophobia” as a hate crime. Threatened legal action for perceived discrimination. Offers of “interfaith dialogue” to indoctrinate non-Muslims. How many nations are suffering from Islamic infiltration? One? A handful? Nearly every nation? The Islamic ‘leadership” of the Muslim Brotherhood and others wish to dissolve each nation’s sovereignty and replace it with the global imposition of Islamic sharia law. Sharia law, based on… Read more »
Then once the country is 50% Muslim (estimated to be around 2050 in the UK) we see the end of miniskirts and pop music etc etc etc because they are “Offensive to Muslims”. —-Thank god I lived in the 70’s where Sandra in my 5th year class distracted me all term long. Mind you I still managed to get Highers in English History Music and surprisingly Physics.
How long will it be until some Numpty decides that selling pork in supermarkets is Islamophobic?
It’ll probably happen on the BBC or The Guardian of course, then Labour will add it to it’s Islamophobia definition.
And what about halal meat? There are public institutions already using it as a matter of course.
As long as it’s labelled so we can avoid it, no issue.
Yes, it’ll probably become mandatory in schools before too long for the sake of inclusion. Add halal to the rest of the brainwashing the kids receive, normalise it.
‘Islamophobia Awareness Month’
The whole concept of Islamophobia is an Orwellian lie. Since 1979 there have been over 48,000 Islamic terrorist attacks – admittedly over 80% directed at other Muslims – so how is fear of the perpetrators of this violence irrational? The perpetrators of Muslim terrorism claim a religious, islamic, sanction for their violence. They claim they have God’s permission to commit murder. How is fear of this violence irrational?
And why is there no Hindu-phobia? Or Buddhism-phobia? Or Sikhism-phobia? Or Taoism-phobia? Or Shintoism-phobia?
Good question.
Interesting, isn’t it?
If a Christian shouts “Praise the Lord”, you don’t run for shelter.
The Krishna people’s chants don’t make you feel worried about your safety.
You shrug when you learn that the Sikhs carry ceremonial knives.
And yet when somebody exalts the joys of eating at Allan’s snackbar it is wise to leg it before you are stabbed, blown up or run down with a vehicle.
Perhaps some public floggings and beheadings would be appropriate?
What? No funding for HInduphobia or Buddhaphobia? Surely this is DISCRIMINATION and RACIST.
I guess mass rape isn’t their thing…
I find the idea of Islamophobia month deeply offensive.
But then who cares? I am just a white native of this country.
A big display in the entrance lobby of the Bank of England too, I’m told.
Orientalism – is that something to do with Chinoiserie?
Authoritarian, misogynistic, homophobic, anti-democratic and antisemitic. What more do you need to know?
“Brides” follows two 15 year-old girls who leave an English town for the Syrian border, chasing an idea of purity, belonging and sisterhood.
And they’re certainly not referred to as Brides because they were really chasing an idea of sexual desire with a religious window dressing, that is, planning to marry IS terrorists who groomed¹ them over the internet.
¹ The allusion is entirely intentional: These underage girls were victims of sex crimes as well, just of a different kind. But Brent Counci celebrates it, so it must be ok.
Shameful pandering and appeasement
This has nothing to do with minority persecution and everything to do with the cowardly response of western culture to terrorist acts
Just as Governor Abbott, of Texas is deporting anyone in Tx found to be using sharia law, the WEF controlled UK is honouring everything Islamic? Why would that be. Were the puppets paid a little extra to put on this show to make the natives think, once again, despite getting the bill for this clown show, they the natives are being forgotten. Sort of looks that way.
So not Islamaphobia month, but Promote Islam month!
