"Islamophobia"

- Local authorities,
police, teachers and MPs have all been working with MEND even
though the organization "meets the government's own
definition of extremism" and "has regularly hosted
illiberal, intolerant and extremist Islamist speakers... has
openly sought to undermine counter-terrorism legislation and
counter-extremism efforts, in addition to having its own links
to extremists..."
- Despite meeting the
government's definition of an extremist group, MEND is
nevertheless organizing a number of events for "Islamophobia
Awareness Month" at British universities.
- One can think of other
issues that are more deserving of an "awareness month"
in the UK, especially because many of the people affected by
those issues have suffered the consequences of the British
obsession with "Islamophobia".

police and social workers criminally turned their backs on thousands
of girls, who were groomed and raped "on an industrial
scale" by Muslim rape gangs, especially in the city of Rotherham

In Britain, Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, along with
Liberal Democrats leader Vince Cable, are the poster boys for this
year's "Islamophobia Awareness Month" a yearly campaign,
which has been running under the leadership of Islamist group Muslim
Engagement and Development (MEND), since 2012.
"We have to drive out racism in any form in our
society," said Corbyn – whose own Labour party has never been
more anti-Semitic and who considers Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists
his "friends". The message came wrapped in a propaganda
video he stars in for the campaign. "Islamophobia," he
continued, "is a terrible thing, causes terrible hurt and
terrible pain".
"I greatly welcome the contribution that MEND is
making to raise awareness of this issue and mobilise people in the
political world and elsewhere to fight Islamophobia", Cable adds
in the video.

Almost unnoticed in the coverage of President Trump's
Asia trip, Lebanon is slipping under Iran's control. On November 3,
Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri, a Sunni Muslim, resigned, citing
fears of assassination by Hezbollah, the Shia Muslim terrorist group
funded and controlled by Iran. No one can say Hariri's fears are
unjustified since his father, former Prime Minister Rafic Hariri, was
murdered in 2005 — almost certainly at Syrian or Iranian direction.
While the full ramifications of Saad Hariri's
resignation remain to be seen, Tehran's ayatollahs have now
significantly extended their malign reach in the Middle East. This is
bad for the people of Lebanon; bad for Israel, with which Lebanon
shares a common border and a contentious history; bad for Arab states
like Jordan and the oil-producing Arabian Peninsula monarchies; and
bad for America and its vital national interests in this critical
region.
