Bishop warns of no-go zones for non-Muslims

Last Updated: 4:29pm GMT 06/01/2008

Islamic extremists have created "no-go" areas across Britain where it is too dangerous for non-Muslims to enter, one of the Church of England's most senior bishops warns today.

The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester and the Church's only Asian bishop, says that people of a different race or faith face physical attack if they live or work in communities dominated by a strict Muslim ideology.

The Right Reverend Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester
Bishop Nazir-Ali warns that attempts are being made to give Britain an increasingly Islamic character

The Muslim Council of Britain today described his comments as "frantic scaremongering", while William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary, said the bishop had "probably put it too strongly".

Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg said the idea of no-go areas was "a gross caricature of reality".

Writing in The Sunday Telegraph, Bishop Nazir-Ali compares the threat to the use of intimidation by the far-Right, and says that it is becoming increasingly difficult for Christianity to be the nation's public religion in a multifaith, multicultural society.

His comments come as a poll of the General Synod - the Church's parliament - shows that its senior leaders, including bishops, also believe that Britain is being damaged by large-scale immigration.

Bishop Nazir-Ali, who was born in Pakistan, gives warning that attempts are being made to give Britain an increasingly Islamic character by introducing the call to prayer and wider use of sharia law, a legal system based on the Koran.

In an attack on the Government's response to immigration and the influx of "people of other faiths to these shores", he blames its "novel philosophy of multiculturalism" for allowing society to become deeply divided, and accuses ministers of lacking a "moral and spiritual vision".

Echoing Trevor Phillips, the chairman of the Commission for Equalities and Human Rights, who has said that the country is "sleepwalking into segregation", the bishop argues that multiculturalism has led to deep divisions.

David Davis, the shadow home secretary, has accused Muslims of promoting a kind of "voluntary apartheid" by shutting themselves in closed societies and demanding immunity from criticism.

In the Synod survey, to be published this week, bishops, senior clergy and influential churchgoers said that an increasingly multi-faith society threatens the country's Christian heritage and blamed the divisions on the Government's failure to integrate immigrants into their communities.

It found that more than one in three believe that a mass influx of people of other faiths is diluting the Christian nature of Britain and only a quarter feel that they have been integrated into society.

The overwhelming majority - 80 per cent - said that the Government has not upheld the place of religion in public life and up to 63 per cent fear that the Church will be disestablished within a generation, breaking a bond that has existed between the Church and State since the Reformation.

Calls for disestablishment have grown following research showing that attendance at Mass has overtaken the number of worshippers at Church of England Sunday services.

Bishop Nazir-Ali, whose father converted from Islam to Catholicism, was criticised by Ibrahim Mogra, of the Muslim Council of Britain. He said: "It's irresponsible for a man of his position to make these comments.

"He should accept that Britain is a multicultural society in which we are free to follow our religion at the same time as being extremely proud to be British. We wouldn't allow 'no-go' areas to happen. I smell extreme intolerance when people criticise multiculturalism without proper evidence of what has gone wrong."

But the Bishop's concerns are shared by other members of the General Synod.

The Rt Rev Nicholas Reade, the Bishop of Blackburn, which has a large Muslim community, said that it was increasingly difficult for Christians to share their faith in areas where there was a high proportion of immigrants of other faiths.

He believes that increasing pressure will be put on the Government to begin the process of disestablishment and end the preferential status given to the Church of England. "The writing is on the wall," he said.

Gordon Brown relinquished Downing Street's involvement in appointing bishops in one of his first facts as Prime Minister - a move viewed by some as a significant step towards disestablishment.

Last night, Mr Davis said: "Bishop Nazir-Ali has drawn attention to a deeply serious problem. The Government's confused and counter-productive approach risks creating a number of closed societies instead of one open, cohesive one. It generates the risk of encouraging radicalisation and creating home-grown terrorism."

Inayat Bunglawala, assistant secretary-general of the Muslim Council of Britain, said: "Bishop Nazir-Ali appears to be exercised by what he perceives as the decline in the influence of Christianity upon this country, but trying to frantically scaremonger about Islam and Muslims seems to us to be a rather unethical way of trying to reverse this.

"He talks about the rise of 'Islamic extremism' but fails to mention how some of the policies of our government and especially that of the United States in the Middle East over several decades now has clearly contributed to this phenomenon."

Thanks for posting the link, fred. Several comments on its content:

"David Davis, the shadow home secretary, has accused Muslims of promoting a kind of "voluntary apartheid" by shutting themselves in closed societies and demanding immunity from criticism."

The above comment clearly shows two things. The first is the nature of Islam, an particularly Wahhabi Islam, which rejects the use of reason, rejects dissent and criticism. Therefore, both the Muslims and the non-Muslims are expected to meekly follow the strictures of Islamism without debate or question - even though these policies are not compatible with a modern society.

The second is the danger of multiculturalism, which refuses to evaluate cultural beliefs and behaviour and refuses to judge whether these beliefs/behaviour are compatible with modern society. The fact that the Islamic social and political beliefs/behaviour are removed from debate and question by defining them as religious rather than sociopolitical, means that these people expect immunity and privilege.

"Britain is a multicultural society in which we are free to follow our religion at the same time as being extremely proud to be British"

This statement by the Muslim leader is pure nonsense.
No-one/group should be 'free to follow a religion' or any form of behaviour and belief if it is not compatible with the normative standards of the society to which these people have immigrated.
If these Muslims want to practice Sharia Law, which is incompatible with English normative standards - this should not be considered a right of 'freedom of religion'.
If your religion or other set of beliefs contradicts the normative standards of the population to which you have immigrated, you cannot claim Right To Practice your beliefs by virtue of 'multiculturalism'.

Sharia Law contradicts 'Being British'.

Slain girl's brother faces driving charge

By: Torstar Network

January 5, 2008 - A Mississauga man, already facing a charge of obstruct police in connection with the death of his 16-year-old sister, was arrested early this morning for dangerous driving.

Waqas Parvez, 26, was held overnight and is appearing today in a Brampton court for a bail hearing where his previous bail could be revoked.

Peel police confirmed Parvez was arrested and taken into custody after he was allegedly spotted driving a tow truck recklessly on Hurontario St. in Mississauga about 2 a.m.

Parvez's sister Aqsa was killed in early December at her Mississauga home. Her father Muhammad Parvez, 57, remains in custody, having been charged with murder in the strangulation death of the Applewood Heights Secondary School student. Peel's Crown Attorney has yet to decide whether charge him with first or second-degree murder.

The slaying drew international attention because friends of the girl said Aqsa defied her devout Muslim father's rules, including his demand that she wear traditional Muslim clothing, including a hijab.

In this morning's driving incident involving the Grade 11 student's brother, police said he nearly hit another vehicle as he fishtailed on Hurontario St.

Police said he was eventually stopped near Kirwin Ave.

Parvez has been charged with dangerous driving and breach of recognizance. The latter charge relates to the conditions of his release after his arrest following the death of his sister.

His father is to appear in court next via video on Jan. 29.

Exclusion of gay blood donors unacceptable: Students

http://www.mississauganews.com/article/9979

January 4, 2008 - The University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM) student union is joining others across Canada in stepping up their campaign to reverse a policy they claim discriminates against gay men who want to donate blood.

Andrew Brett, UTM advocacy and outreach coordinator, says the policy invoked by Health Canada and Canadian Blood Services (CBS) — which prevents any male from donating if he has had sex with another male since 1977 — is a violation of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

The policy is "based on a misunderstanding" and promotes stereotypes, Brett told The Calgary Sun.

Canadian Federation of Students spokesperson Amanda Aziz called the policy outdated, discriminatory and in need of change.

"I think that it's a form of institutionalized discrimination," she said.

Equality for Gays and Lesbians Canada (Egale) executive director Helen Kennedy called Health Canada "the villain" in the issue.

"Everyone has a right to be free from discrimination based on their sexual orientation," said Tamara Kronis, Egale's director of advocacy. "The effect of the blood questionnaire is that it excludes potential donors based on sexual orientation rather than on unsafe sexual practices."

Health Canada spokesperson Carole Saindon said the policy is based simply on science, and that gay men are not being singled out.

"The exclusion of donors is applied to a number of different groups," Saindon said.

The first comment on the Rex Murphy item is from Johan Boyden, a member of and former candidate for the Communist parties of Canada and Ontario. He thinks the CBC is "right-wing."

Scrolling down and reading some of the comments under Rex’s video,
I’m left …speechless!

Therefore the HRCs are working

It is quite amazing how many commentators state we should only be allowed to make “factual” statements. Who decides what is factual? Napoleon in Animal Farm?

If taken to the end, based on only facts, then MacLean’s would become a mathematics magazine.

The good news is, if Rex can survive on the CBC then Mark Steyn should be able to survive the HRCs.

Missassauga Matt: Thanks for the tip. It boggles the mind that activists can be so utterly indifferent to reality and the welfare of society's most vulnerable members in the name of feel-good "human rights". Unfortunately the track record of HRCs is such that I wouldn't be surprised if they get their way and the entire blood supply is put at risk notwithstanding the efforts of the Krever comission. Smart CBS officials will do what I know was done in at least one jurisdiction by the Red Cross when the HIV issue first reared its head. The person in charge directed his staff when faced with a donor who gave any suspicious "vibes" to smile politely, take the blood, mark it and trash it. The result was a very low incidence of blood-borne disease transmission in that jurisdiction, political correctness be damned!

Wasn't not discriminating against homosexuals what got us into the whole tainted blood thing in the first place?

I'm not allowed to donate blood in case I am a mad cow because I lived in England for over six months during a certain time frame.

It never occurred to me that this might be a violation of my human rights, but if it is maybe I can drag Canadian Blood Services before an HRC and make some, money off it. After all, what do I have to loose?

Somehow, Not Waiting for the Mosquito wouldn't have the same impact.

Dinosaurs killed by mosquitoes, not comet, claim scientists

Biting insects might have brought down the mighty dinosaurs rather than a cataclysmic meteor impact, a new theory claims.

Disease spread by ancient mosquitoes, mites and ticks was probably the major factor that finished off the extinct reptiles, say scientists.

Insects could have also made it harder for dinosaurs to survive by changing the nature of plant life on Earth.

Bees and other pollinators helped to promote the rapid spread of flowering plants, leading to the loss of vegetarian dinosaurs' traditional food sources. As the plant-eating dinosaurs declined, so would their predators...

Two excellent ideas; eliminating subsidies for religious superstition and taking a small step towards sanity in the War On Drugs. What's not to like?

I just realized religious superstition is redundant.

Loads of proof the HRC's defy common sense.

If Gays are allowed to give blood under a Human Rights decree then that gives them the right to possibly infect people with diseases that lifestyle is prone to. Those who need blood are already in a compromised condition.
Great concept, some "rights" are more equal than others follows some people are more equal than others. Wacky stuff.

(Via ICT) Elite teams prepare for nuclear terrorism

About every three days, unknown to most Americans, an elite team of federal scientists hits the streets in the fight against nuclear terrorism.

More than two dozen specialized teams have been positioned to respond to threats of nuclear terrorism, and as many as 2,000 scientists and bomb experts participate in the effort.

And a national policy is evolving that aims to create a system of deterrence in which scientific analysis could quickly identify the state sponsors of an attempted or successful nuclear device attack and enable the U.S. to retaliate. A key report on the approach, known as nuclear forensics, is due in February...

Bravo Rex Murphy.
There is a dichotomy between Western and Islamic thought.
What the complainants do not understand and accept is that Macleans is an independent business which has the right to publish what it chooses and sink or swim accordingly. The complainants think they have a right to use the broad base of readership established by Macleans rather than go out and do the work to establish their own. They feel they have a right to use Macleans as a vehicle to express their point of view.
Is there a privately owned magazine such as Macleans in any Islamic country which can freely publish articles without government or Mullah censorship?
Islamic thought is tightly controlled by the Koran and Mullah interpretation, and if such a magazine did exist and published such an article it wouldn't last long as a fatwa would be
declared against it.

Gay men feeling discriminated against because they can't give blood? Give me a friggin' break!

I give blood at least four times a year, not a very pleasant experience, but I feel it's important. (BTW, only about 4% of Canadians donate blood, something for everybody to think about.)

If the Canadian Blood Service EVER allows gay men to give blood, I'll stop giving immediately. As it is, I gave regularly UNTIL the last fiasco with tainted blood, which the Red Cross KNEW was contaminated with HIV, because I stopped trusting them.

If gay men get their way and are allowed to give blood, I'll stop trusting the Canadian Blood Service, too. I sincerely hope this doesn't happen for all the good reasons given by posters above.

We really created a Frankenstein's monster when we went from our Common Law, that worked pretty darned well, to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. This latest inanity from gay activists is exactly why so many of us have nothing but scorn, contempt, and revulsion for Pierre Trudeau: not because he was AC/DC but because he ushered in this travesty of a Charter: Some rights. Some freedoms.

Massive mily operation in Waziristan on the cards

ISLAMABAD- A large-scale military operation is on cards in the restive tribal belt of Waziristan to stamp out the ‘local Taliban’ led by Baitullah Mehsud, who is blamed by the government for most of the recently carried out suicide blasts including one that killed the former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.

34-year old militant commander Baitullah Mehsud, as his name suggests, belongs to the Mehsud tribe in South Waziristan, a troubled region, which is now considered to be the safe haven for al-Qaeda and Taliban.

Baitullah Mehsud, according to security officials here, has played a major role in the expansion of militants’ writ and control in Waziristan besides, extending support to the militants in other tribal areas as well as the district of Swat.

“Pakistan’s top security brass believes that Mehsud is the most important militant leader in the current scenario and in order to eradicate the scourge of terror, a full-fledged military operation against him and the militants being led by him is a must,” said a senior official here on Saturday requesting anonymity...

i use to donate blood regularly in my younger days. i quit (after 39 donations)when it turned out that connaught labs was selling donations to the states. so much for helping people who required it here free of charge. then came the big scandal with tainted supplies. i have had a couple of hip operations and have donated my own blood. at least i can be assured i know what i'm getting. i wonder how many people are aware that it a option when facing elective surgery?

'batb, we need a whole new look at the Trudeau Charter. If anything ever needed amending that's it.

Failing to do so will cause us continuing woes and eat into our equality as persons in a democracy.

In a true democracy, everyone is equal, the Charter affords some to be MORE equal.
It also allows interpretations by the Judiciary, which is an abuse of our democratic rights. It is also a cop out for the Government of the day.

Passing controversial issues on to the Judiciary and flying with their decisions is not a way to govern in a democracy.

WLMR, the news of Bill Gates stepping down from daily operations of Microsoft is old news. As a matter of course, Gates gives more to charity than the budget of most countries. As in billions. And as far as I know, the Gates Foundation isn't political and actually does good work without having the "I'm Bono and I'm saving the world with YOUR money" syndrome. He puts his money where it does the most good.

Actually, the purpose of the Canadian Human Rights Commissions, staffed almost entirely by Liberal appointed followers, are also a clever way for the Liberal Govts to lose power occassionally, and still be able to influence/control the development of Canadian society.

That's exactly why almost all federally appointed boards and commssions are for 7 year terms, versus only 4 yr election terms.

Liberals can be out of power for 4 years and still make private phone calls to the commissions/boards to push their agendas.

What has always amused me to no end, is the fact that Ottawa could push legislation thru the HoC defining the wispy, vaporous, fleeting quality of 'intellectual property rights', but have steadfastly rejected passing any legislation giving and defining real 'property rights' to Canadians.

You know, the solid stuff you can grab on to and feel, like barley or wheat.

I think that if you want to complain about someone or something to the Canadian Human Rights Commission, you should have to fit your own bill; perhaps, this would cut down on all the crap.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that Muslims are having a lot of children; just find a Muslim woman and you'll see it for yourself. Anyone with a brain could determine that we will be outnumbered soon enough by Muslims if we don't even replace our own status quo.

What is a factual statement? We argue over global warming - there are plenty of facts, but people still choose to believe what they want. It is called Freedom of Thought and Freedom of Choice.

One expects scientific discourse to be focused dispassionately on substantive issues. Yet doctors, scientists, and others who question whether human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) have been called the moral equivalent of Holocaust deniers; their employers have been urged to dismiss them; laws under which they could be imprisoned have been envisioned; and media have been asked to purge their archives of anything potentially favorable to such doubting.

If factual arguments are not good enough for our courts, you can be sure that they are not good enough for the HRC's. I don't remember all the details or have the facts in front of me, but years ago in Toronto we had an influx of gypsy refugees. They were all living in motels in Scarborough and a bunch of people went out and picketed the place. They were charged with inciting hatred. As a defence they said that everything they had said about gypsies was provably, factually true. The court said that telling the truth can not be used as a defence against a charge of inciting hatred.

Norm at 2:36 said, "There is a dichotomy between Western and Islamic thought. What the complainants do not understand and accept is that Macleans is an independent business which has the right to publish what it chooses and sink or swim accordingly."

But then, bars and restaurants and others are independent businesses, operating on private property, which should have the right to allow smoking on their premises (or not) as the see fit, yet they are increasingly assailed by our domestic health imams and ordered what to do.

Different details, but perhaps the dichotomy is not between Islam and the West, but between freedom and tyranny (from whatever source).

Four adults -- Kryusztof Krymowski, Ryan Marshall, Michael Schulz and Quinn McFarlane -- and two young offenders, are being tried for wilfully promoting hate as a result of the protest involving skinheads wearing scarves over their faces and carrying a Nazi swastika and placards reading, "Honk if You Hate Gypsies'

Texas Canuck,

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation supports (and Warren Buffet has slapped a lot of dough into this Foundation as well, btw), financially, the work of Bono. They have the same goals (just wiki this stuff).

Bono is a salesman. He's your typical Dubliner; he can talk the money right out of your wallet. Bill and Warren do not have that charisma and so shouldn't be in that role. They are using valid business models to improve places like Africa and they are trying to break down barriers to trade. The best defence against Islamism and nutty dictators is education - which they also promote.

George Carlin is right, "They Own Us".

Perhaps anti-terrorists should request equal time to present their views to Muslim assemblies. If a Canadian magazine is to be required to provide opposing viewpoints (and who appoints anyone to speak for all Muslims or other groups?), then mosques and other Muslim associations should also have equal time requirements imposed on them. If these requests are refused, then human rights complaints should be filed.

I'm sure Canada's fine human rights commissions would be quick to support complaints from marginalized groups such as anti-terrorists and taxpayers.

Imagine the sound of a Canadian Human Rights Commission approved call to prayer:
