UK Home Secretary Theresa May said many British Muslims "benefit a great deal" from living under Sharia law while launching an investigation into any possible "mistreatment of women" under the separate legal system. Via The Telegraph: A panel of experts, including the retired high court judge Sir Mark Hedley and leading barristers, who will be advised by two leading imams, will focus on investigating the treatment of women in cases involving divorce, domestic violence and child custody. Mrs May added: “Many British people of different faiths follow religious codes and practices, and benefit a great deal from the guidance they offer.It really takes a deep investigation to figure out whether or not this is in line with women's lib: Surely, the only problem with Sharia law is those scoundrels who "misuse and exploit" it. As I reported earlier this month, British mosques are now banning women and girls from using Facebook, traveling alone and wearing trousers. Perhaps an "investigation" should be launched to determine whether or not those women are being mistreated, though it should of course exclude any examination of the merits of Sharia law, hallowed be thy name, as that would be racist. The Brits have imported a hostile population into their nation which is operating under their own legal system. The Muslims refuse to integrate and view being told to integrate as an affront to their religion, yet they're A-OK with integrating native Brits' cash into their own pockets through endless welfare programs. An ICM poll shared in the Times last month showed: • One in five Muslims in Britain never enter a non-Muslim house;Trevor Phillips, the UK "Equalities Chief" who popularised the term "Islamophobia," said in April he thought Muslims would "blend" in better and admitted he "got almost everything wrong." “Twenty years ago… I published the report titled Islamophobia: A Challenge for Us All, we thought that the real risk of the arrival of new communities was discrimination against Muslims. Our 1996 survey of recent incidents showed that there was plenty of it around. But we got almost everything else wrong.” “We estimated that the Muslim population of the UK would be approaching 2 [million] by 2020. We underestimated by nearly a million. We predicted that the most lethal threat to Muslims would come from racial attacks and social exclusion. We completely failed to foresee the urban conflicts of 2001 that ravaged our northern cities. And of course we didn’t dream of 9/11 and the atrocities in Madrid, Paris, Istanbul, Brussels and London.” “For a long time, I too thought that Europe’s Muslims would become like previous waves of migrants, gradually abandoning their ancestral ways, wearing their religious and cultural baggage lightly, and gradually blending into Britain’s diverse identity landscape. I should have known better.” Follow InformationLiberation on Twitter and Facebook. |
