Couple of articles from today’s Guardian

While a lot of people are celebrating that the Bharatiya Ja-Nazi Party has been booted out of office in India, George Monbiot reports that some of the darlings of western politicians have been booted...

Panorama scaremongering?

Did anyone else see that Panorama programme that was on BBC1 this evening? Did anyone else think this was a scare story? Even the Home Office refused to take part for precisely this reason....

Piers Morgan resigns

The BBC is reporting that Piers Morgan, the editor of the Daily Mirror has been sacked or stepped down (nobody is quite sure which, which is the norm when powerful people are sacked), and...

I’m a better runaway than David Hargreaves

David Hargreaves recently told in the Spectator his story of how he ran away from boarding school in 1974, and he considers this one of the best moves he’s ever made. I was tempted...

Lying dogs whip up fears among Jews

OK … I don’t normally give free publicity to blogs which publish lies about Muslims, but this one from “Dhimmi Watch” really does take the proverbial biscuit. (You can read about this and its...

The strange case of the Muslim-loving Islamophobes

One of the fascinating things about some of the most vehemently anti-Islamic commentators in the blogosphere (they seldom make it into the mainstream press, at least not in the UK) is how concerned they...

So, it’s almost St. George’s day …

I don’t honestly know if it’s nearly St. George’s day, but it must be because people have brought it up on the radio again: why don’t we English celebrate our “national day” like the...

More on Sardar

The New Statesman finally got round to printing replies to Ziauddin Sardar’s “open the gates of ijtihad” waffle two issues ago (I blogged on this about a week ago). They didn’t print mine, but...

About Abdul-Hadi Palazzi …

Those of you who visit my website often will have noticed a link to an article about “Shaikh” Abdul-Hadi Palazzi, an impostor from Italy who is the leader, or one of the leaders, of...

Victims’ Licence

George Monbiot has published a fascinating article on how being the victim of an atrocity (or the descendent of such a victim) appears to give people licence to commit fresh atrocities. The Germans, the...

A Conservative wants to know about Islam

Townhall.com, a page run by the Heritage Foundation which publishes a collection of articles by various US right-wing columnists, has published one by Doug Giles, “a no-nonsense, God-fearing student of society with a special...

Reply to Zia Sardar

Last week in the New Statesman they had Ziauddin Sardar, a darling of the British liberal media, spouting some of his well-known ideas. I am quite interested in Sardar because it was one of...

Adoption, the Saudis and our Ken

Jon Gaunt, BBC Radio’s resident loud-mouth, was mouthing off about adoption on BBC’s London radio (94.9 FM, 9am-12pm Monday-Friday) this morning. The thing that got his goat today was that parents who gave their...

Reaction to my last post

Note: the original post, which I deleted, was in response to Jews gloating on the BBC’s website about the murder by the Israeli army of Shaikh Ahmed Ya-sin. The post said that the Jews...

Vote Nazi, read the Mail

Searchlight Magazine, a British anti-fascist and anti-racist monthly, has picked up on the anti-immigrant vendetta in the tabloid press. It seems the BNP appreciate the support, as one of their goons held up a...

LGF’s latest horror story

Little Green Footballs, for reasons (ahem) best known to themselves as this has nothing to do with the Middle East or with anything political, have posted an article about a five-year-old girl who was...

Daily Express puts its foot in it again

The flow of garbage from the Daily Express continues unabated. Last Thursday it published yet another multi-page feature on immigration, claiming that just as we are getting loads of immigrants coming in, Brits are...

Abu Hamza makes the front pages again

The Scum, Britain’s leading red-top gutter rag, put Abu Hamza on its front two pages again for what must be the third week running. The paper has made a date of it each week,...

Daily Express – same old garbage

As might be expected from a newspaper owned by porn baron Richard Desmond, the Daily Express once again went for the lowest common denominator in its coverage of the EU expansion issue. It was...
