More typical far left extremist Secular Progressive media bias by the likes off Babs and her husband Milquetoast Mikkelson.
Here's literal proof of the "No Go Zones" from the reputable and non-biased Gatestone Institute, from a post that I wrote last month: ================= would argue that the last time this subject was revisited, it is speculative as to whether the sources of the videos were from "openly racist groups", but I'm curious if either Keith or Fresh consider the antics of Anjem Choudary to be "racist"; or "Anti-Christian/Anti-British/Anti-European"? For those of you who are not familiar with Anjem Choudary; Imam Choudary is a former British Solicitor of Pakistani heritage, who believes that all of the United Kingdom should be governed under Sharia law, and that all "Non-Muslims" should be taxed, and eventually done away with if they in fact refuse to convert to Islam. Here's Imam Choudary from the American television show 60 Minutes from late last year and for those of you not familar with Choudary, this is a good introduction. There is also a segment of a "No-Go Zone/Zones Urbaines Sensibles" contained within this 14 minute video, filmed by the very "non-racist/politically correct" CBS News: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf_IaaCAdNs This is the second policy paper done by the Gatestone Institute (a reputable, non-partisan think tank); on the proverbial,"No-Go Zone/Zones Urbaines Sensibles"; this policy paper in particular lists what the Gatestone Institute labels as, "Muslim Enclaves" within Great Britain: http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/5177/no-go-zones-britain Although a bit dated, (from October, 2013); this is another example of "No-Go Zone/Zones Urbaines Sensibles" in East London: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvYRw8KWKPI This from just a few short months ago in East London: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6Vfuv6_BgY Ditto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox73GXNjJJ0 Finally, this last video is more humorous than it is consequential, between Imam Choudary and Sean Hannity of FOX News. It's a "scream fest", but if you'll stick with it till the end, you will see where Imam Choudary declares that under Sharia Law, which the good Imam proscribes for all of Great Britain, homosexuals should be stoned to death for their crimes, and should be punished. I am baffled as to how anyone living within Western Culture can defend or somehow justify this abhorrence! Islam, until such time as it reforms, is incompatible with Western societies and Wester Cultures: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znLj476oq2E On Wed, Jun 1, 2016 at 6:38 PM, plainolamerican <[email protected]> wrote: > I live in Michigan and know it to be accurate > --- > Snopes says you're a liar. > > just because you won't go near muzzies doesn't make it true. > > On Wednesday, June 1, 2016 at 5:26:58 PM UTC-5, fed up wrote: >> >> I live in Michigan and know it to be accurate >> >> Sent from my iPhone >> >> On Jun 1, 2016, at 3:44 PM, plainolamerican <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Examine loans being given to muslims that are shariah compliant >> financing -- no interest; >> --- >> >> The Hebrew Free Loan Society (HFLS) uses interest-free lending to help >> jews.
