The Muslim patrols are at it again- trolling the streets of London for 'bad' Muslims, or non-Muslims doing bad things.
Back in January the "Muslim Patrol" (a group of Islamic vigilantes) was harassing people- whether Muslim or not- in Muslim-dominant areas for not complying with Islamic mores. Some of those vigilantes have been arrested, but others have taken their place. This new group calls itself the Shariah Project, and considers itself a kinder, gentler version of the hardline Muslim Patrol. However, some of those hardliners are members of the new group, including Abu Izzadeen (once jailed on terrorism charges) who tells Sara Firth, the reporter for Russia Today, that "the law of the land can go to hell."
The leader of the Shariah Project happens to be Abu Usamah who claims that Islam and Shariah will eventually dominate the world.
Mainstream Muslims have condemned both groups.

Libyan Islamists Publicly Lashing Citizens
Vigilante Islamists (allegedly from the extremist group Ansar Al-Sharia) publicly lashing citizens for unknown crimes in Libya, just because they can.
Lashings have resurfaced since crazy Muammar al-Gaddafi's (Qadhafi) was killed. And forget the law, Islamists take it upon themselves to dish out the punishment without going through Shariah courts.
And the poor fool crying "Allahu Akbar".

Muslim Vigilante Group Patrols London Streets- Tell Women To Cover Up
A group of young extremist Muslims calling themselves the "Muslim Patrol" have been walking the streets of London in so-called "Muslim areas", accosting unveiled women, people carrying alcohol, harassing gay men, and vandalizing public property they find offensive, like bus shelters posting H and M ads of push-up bras. Two of their videos of the encounters that they had posted on their YouTube channel are no longer available, although others have posted them. You can also see both of them on Liveleak. A third one of them harassing a gay man is on YouTube, with a disclaimer.
According to The Commentator:
And the 'wider Muslim community' is apparently just as appalled by what these thugs are doing. Ibrahim Mogra from the Muslim Council of Britain condemned the vigilantes for their actions, as did Mohammed Shafiq:
If they are so enamored of Shariah and Muslim-only areas, perhaps they should pack their bags and move to Afghanistan.
According to The Commentator:
The footage is likely to have come from East London, where 'Shariah zones' were set up last year. The new tactic of intimidation is said to appall local residents, who will likely find the 'patrols' disconcerting.
In the videos, the 'Muslim Patrol' is heard to say, "Alcohol banned. This is a Muslim area. Muslims patrol the area."
One young woman, when confronted by the patrol, states, "I am appalled, this is Great Britain", to which the authors of the video are heard to remark, "We don't care. It's not so Great Britain".
Those involved are thought to be a part of an extremist network in East London and not linked to the wider Muslim community in the local area.
And the 'wider Muslim community' is apparently just as appalled by what these thugs are doing. Ibrahim Mogra from the Muslim Council of Britain condemned the vigilantes for their actions, as did Mohammed Shafiq:
...the chief executive of the Ramadhan Foundation, a Muslim organisation which campaigns for a peaceful co-existence among communities, has condemned the group's behaviour.
He said: 'We live in the UK and we are governed by UK law, there should be no mob rule. If people are involved in this behaviour then it is worrying but it is an isolated incident.'
If they are so enamored of Shariah and Muslim-only areas, perhaps they should pack their bags and move to Afghanistan.

Pakistan Mob Burns To Death Man Accused Of Desecrating Quran
Because a book has more value than a human life: some 200 hundred enraged vigilante Pakistanis burned a man alive (after they had already beaten him and dragged him to the police station) because they believe he had desecrated a Quran. They didn't even have proof that he did it, because no-one actually saw him burn the book.
Why would a man be stupid enough to burn a Quran in the mosque he is taking refuge in for the night? But of course that didn't factor into the equation, because it was probably just a handy excuse to murder this man, for whatever reason.
All because of Pakistan's blasphemy laws which aren't going away any time soon. Just lobbying to change those laws can you get you killed.
Ignorance and a religion that fosters anger. A toxic combination.
The man was a traveler and had spent Thursday night at the mosque, said Maulvi Memon, the imam in the southern village of Seeta in Sindh province. The charred remains of the Koran were found the next morning.
"He was alone in the mosque during the night," Memon said. "There was no one else there to do this terrible thing."
Villagers beat the man then handed him over to police. A few hours later, a crowd of around 200 stormed the police station, dragged the man out and set him on fire, said Usman Ghani, the senior superintendent of police in Dadu district.
Ghani said around 30 people had been arrested for the murder and seven police detained for negligence.

In the past two years, two senior Pakistani officials who suggested reforming the laws have been shot dead, one by his own bodyguard. Lawyers threw rose petals at the killer and the judge who convicted him was forced to flee the country.
