Brit Hijabi Suing Kit Kat Makers For Waferless Candy Bar

Some Brit Hijabi is suing the makers of Kit Kat because she bought a package that did not include the wafers. She wants a lifetime supply for her pain and suffering, or as she put it:

"The loss I have suffered is of monetary and emotional significance.."

The Muslim 20-year-old law student, Saima Ahmad, sent a letter to Nestle company demanding the following:

The truth of the matter is; manufacturers owe a duty of care to consumers.
‘The specific duty you owe in consistency in your manufacturing process. The failure to take due care in the manufacturing process resulted in a product being defective.
‘As a result I feel as though I have been misled to part with my money and purchase a product that is clearly different from what has been marketed by Nestle.
‘The loss I have suffered is of monetary and emotional significance.
‘I would like a full refund of the defective pack of KitKat I purchased. I have also lost my faith in Nestle.
‘Clearly, if I wanted to purchase a confectionery item that is purely chocolate, I would have purchased a bar of Galaxy.
‘I would therefore like to request a life-long supply of KitKat so that I can act as a means of quality control – it appears you need me more than I need you
Saima is using an old 1930s law to back up her demands.

This has got to be a joke, but one never knows. There are a plethora of frivolous law suits that wind up in courts.

Muhammed Top Name For Baby Boys In The UK

England is doomed. According to the UK website BabyCentre, Muhammad has become the most popular name for baby boys.

Muhammad has become the most popular name for baby boys in the UK, the website BabyCentre has claimed. While Arabic names are on the rise, TV shows such as Game Of Thrones have also inspired names for the next generation.

The list of the top 100 baby names of 2014 showed Muhammad has risen 27 places from last year to claim the number one spot for boys.

The baby names chart ranks the names chosen by 56,157 BabyCentre.co.uk members who gave birth in 2014.

There is a surge in Arabic names generally, with Nur a new entry in the girls’ top 100, jumping straight to number 29, and Maryam rising 59 places to number 35. Omar, Ali, and Ibrahim are new to the boys’ top 100.

UK Judge Allows Anjem Choudary To Preach Hate While On Bail

Radical Muslim hate preacher Anjem Choudary, who was arrested and then released on bail from police custody after a counter-terroism sweep in the UK, is now back on London streets spewing his hate.

Even though he's on bail, district judge Howard Riddle decided that Choudary and 6 others who were arrested can go back to preaching because it was in violation of religious freedom.  Apparently, as part of their bail conditions, they were not allowed to set up their little 'dawah' (Islamic proselytizing) stalls. That's now changed. Riddle said:

“The dawah stalls are a significant part of the current investigation."
“However, it is accepted that the dawah stall has an ostensible purpose to spread the word of Islam and to proselytise. Religious freedom is of considerable significance.”
The others that were arrested:

Choudary and his brother Yazandi were arrested on 25 September along with Shakil Chapra, Siddartha Dhar, Abdul Muhid, Mohammed Rahman, Mohammed Shamsuddin and Anthony Small.
Anthony Small is a Muslim convert and former boxer with his own YouTube channel. He has also calls for Muslims to take over England.

Dhar supposedly took off for Syria with his wife and 4 kids.

Choudary claims he never stopped preaching anyway.

 “It’s a nonsense anyway. I never stopped my dawah, I never stopped doing my work online and in cafes. Street dawah is just one way of doing this."
“It’s an abuse of process. It’s an abuse of what you would call human rights, they should remove the other conditions. I’ve been raided four or five times and they’ve never found anything – I’ve got less now than I had then.”
Muslim radicals do not deserve the right to freedom of speech or religion.

Fool.

Infidel, The Musical, Playing In London- Sexy Burqa Video

The musical "The Infidel", based on the movie by the same name, is enjoying a run at Theatre Royal Stratford East in London. David Baddiel who penned the film also wrote both the book and the lyrics to the stage musical.

The story, in case you did not see the movie:

East End Muslim Mahmoud is an ordinary family man whose life is turned upside down when he discovers that not only is he adopted, but that his birth parents are Jewish. The resulting cultural and religious chaos leads to an uproarious and insightful comedy about race, prejudice, confusion and what it really means to be yourself.
Here's a song from the musical: Sexy Burka.  I think one of the niqab-clad singers is actually a guy.



I do wonder, however, how the radical Muslim element in England will respond.

Not surprisingly, here are two comments on YouTube:

Na'eemah Halimah says:

Couldn't you think of anything else to do a play on than disrespecting islam?

The muslim women who wear niqab only wear them out in public and around strangers, not in their homes.

Seeing as your Jewish Mr David Baddiel your religion, just like christianity are so similiar to islam that you're really just insulting yourself. Jewish women wear burqas too but you're so westernised you must have missed that

No caps for Islam? Hmm.

And Aminah Abdur-Rahman writes:

FEAR ALLAH AND TAKE THIS VIDEO DOWN! THIS IS DISRESPECTFUL! MUSLIMAHS ACTING OUT LIKE THIS!

It was posted on YouTube October 22nd, so there are few comments. But I'm sure they will pile up with similar dreck, and eventually probably threats of violence. Silly, humorless people.

UK Student Union Won't Condemn ISIS, But Boycotts Israel

A UK student union (National Union of Students) refused to condemn the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) for all its bloody barbarism because they didn't want to ruffle Muslim feathers- it would have been "Islamophobic" to have done so.  Yet they had no problem joining the Boycott Israel movement.

The decision by NUS's National Executive Committee to shoot down the motion is all the more shocking given that the same body adopted an aggressive bill just over two months ago condemning Israel and calling for a boycott of the Jewish state. The anti-Israel motion was adopted despite objections that it risked alienating Jewish students, who are feeling increasingly insecure on British campuses as a result of militant anti-Israel activity.

It comes as Kurdish fighters continue to battle ISIS in Kobane, stymieing the jihadi group's bloody advance through Syria. Rights groups have said that ISIS's brutal military campaign throughout Iraq and Syria amounts to ethnic-cleansing of "historic proportions", as non-Sunni Muslim groups - including Shias, Christians and Yazidis - have been targeted with rape, mass-killings and forcible conversions.

The proposed motion was penned in support of the Kurds in particular, who have both been at the forefront of resistance to ISIS and on the receiving end of much of the group[s brutality. It called "to condemn the IS and support Kurdish forces fighting against it, while expressing no confidence or trust in the US military intervention." (For full text see below.)


The rest here, including the full text of the motion.

Rich Arab To Pay Big Bucks For 'Private' Tutoring In The UK- Females Preferred

A thirty-something-year-old  Arab businessman- currently living in England- and who left school as a teen, is looking to pay some female $200,000 (£122,300) to be his full-time slave..er... tutor for a year, to help him get into Oxford University. And when he says full time, he means full time.

In a classified ad placed in the Times education supplement- but more worthy of placement on Match.com- said 'Arab businessman' expects a lot from potential candidate. She must be "socially and culturally versatile," a native English speaker with teaching knowledge (he wants to speak like a Brit), lead a "healthy lifestyle" and be  in "good physical shape."  She must also be "highly intelligent, erudite, well read" and able to teach him jazz piano, appreciate opera and Shakespeare. She must be willing and able to travel to exotic destinations like the Middle East and Africa- all expenses paid, including: "apartments, hotels and yachts." Yowza.

But here's where the full time comes in: work is from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day, and she must spend Fridays and Saturdays with the man. No mention of other 'extra-curricular' activities, but you know that will be expected.

He allegedly wants help with the GCSEs and A Levels, but adds that he is realistic and knows he might not gain admission to Oxford.  In addition:

She must also be able to turn the client into a man whose “Arabic background is no longer evident.” In the lengthy advert, the tutor should also be “constantly researching and planning a culturally rich range of musical and dramatic performance, visits to art galleries and museums, restaurants, sites of historical or contemporary interest,” as part of a “life curriculum.”

Apparently he does not mention the sex of the candidates, but it's quite obvious he's looking for a woman.

Very bizarre.

Sad thing is, some fool is going to go for it and I can't imagine it will end well.

Shariah Compliant Banking At UK's Lloyd's TSB

Had no idea that Lloyd's TSB bank has a Shariah compliant full service banking system. They have for almost 10 years.  It started at a few branches in the U.K. in 2005 and then went nationwide in 2006. They offer everything from business to personal accounts to mortgage accounts.  Interest free on all accounts, and no minimum amount in the 'current accounts'.  Apparently, with mortgages, the bank purchases the house and they get to pay off the purchase price in monthly installments. Ownership is transferred once the purchase price has been paid.

My question.  What do the banks get out of this?

Woman With UK NHS-Paid Boob Job Wants Them Smaller

Gotta love those nanny states.  23-year-old Brit Josie Cunningham got a boob job back in March, courtesy of England's National Health Service (NHS), because she's a model... of sorts.  But she's unhappy with how people have reacted to her additions, so now she wants them smaller, and thinks the NSA should pay for the breast reduction.

The Leeds native is asking taxpayers to foot the bill for her implants to be removed and reduced, reports the Mirror. The mother of two claims that she is unable to find modeling work due to the negative attention surrounding her artificial boobs.

“I don’t want to spend my life being known as the girl with massive NHS boobs, so having smaller implants is the only option."

“I’m looking into charities that could help, but I think it’s down to the NHS because they made them so big,” she explained. She alleged that people would follow her in the street, calling her a slut and demanding their money back.


Of course we've had our own tax-payer funded absurdities.

Honor Killing? 4th Arrest In U.K. Muslim Mum's Disappearance

When 25-year-old Muslimah Ranya Alayed was first reported as a missing person this past Tuesday in Manchester, England, people thought it might have been a stranger, but it looks like the mother of three kids is probably dead, and rather than a stranger, it's more than likely she knew her assailants. It also turns out she actually went missing in early June. Four people, so far, have been detained for questioning. One who is possibly the murderer, and three others who are being considered  as accomplices.

Though no-one is mentioning anything about an honor killing, or whether the detainees are related to her, I'll bet it was and I bet they are.

1. Ranya has been missing since June, and yet it was only reported a few days ago.
2. It wasn't a stranger but people she knew.
3. The people who were arrested are: a 64-year-old man, 55-year-old woman, a 38-year-old man, and the 33-year-old murder suspect. More than likely her parents or in-laws, her brother or brother-in-law, and her husband (the murderer).

Police are still considering her missing, rather than deceased, but this won't turn out well.

The only other scenario could be a battered wife who escaped abuse, although I can't imagine that  a mum would leave without her children.

UK's Channel 4 To Air Muslim Call To Prayer During Ramadan

UK's Channel 4 has decided to broadcast the three minute Muslim call to prayer (Azan or Adhan) at around 3 a.m. every morning during the entire month of Ramadan.  They chose to do that as a deliberate act of provocation for those who link Islam with extremism. Ramadan begins on July 9th, this year.

Ralph Lee, Channel 4's head of factual programming, said: "The calls to prayer prompt Muslims to carry out quiet moments of worship, but hopefully they'll also make other viewers sit up and notice that this event is taking place.

"Observing the adhan on Channel 4 will act as a nationwide tannoy system, a deliberate 'provocation' to all our viewers in the very real sense of the word."

Lee added in an article in the Radio Times: "No doubt Channel 4 will be criticised for focusing attention on a 'minority' religion but that's what we're here to do – provide space for the alternative and a voice to the under-represented.

"Following the horrific events in Woolwich and subsequent reprisals against British Muslims, there has surely never been a more pressing need to give a voice to the moderate mainstream majority. And let's not forget that Islam is one of the few religions that's flourishing, actually increasing in the UK. Like Channel 4's target audience, its followers are young. It's recently been reported that half of British Muslims are under 25."

The Muslim Council of Britain supported Channel 4's move.

"This is a very special month for Muslims and its recognition on a mainstream channel is not only symbolic for belonging and solidarity but will hopefully help to portray a more realistic account of Islam and Muslims," said a spokesman.

In addition to the call to prayer they have other things planned, including short films- Ramadan Reflections-  which will air prior to the Azan.

The Problem Of Female Genital Mutilation In The UK

Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is a barbaric practice that won't easily be eradicated. In fact it's a growing problem in Western lands, with the UK now ranking number one in Europe. It's understandable in countries where the bulk of the population lives in ignorance and poverty, but one would think the practice would not survive in the civilized Western world. But not so. The problem is- immigrants bring their religious and cultural practices to their adopted countries, and are loathe to let them go. But it's such a problem that England is willing to invest £35 million to try to reduce the practice in at least 10 countries within the next 5 years.

The Gatestone Institute discusses the huge problem of FGM in the UK:

British authorities are redoubling their fight against the spiraling problem of female genital mutilation (FGM) after a weekly primetime television show broadcast by the BBC forced the previously "taboo" subject into mainstream debate.

FGM is endemic in Muslim-majority countries across Africa, Asia and the Middle East. Three million girls between infancy and age 15 are subject to FGM every year, and it is believed that 140 million women worldwide are suffering from the lifelong consequences of the practice.

FGM has emerged as a major problem in Europe due to mass immigration. The European Parliament estimates that 500,000 girls and women in the European Union are living with FGM, and every year another 180,000 girls in Europe are at risk of being "cut."

Britain has the highest levels of FGM in Europe. According to a government-funded study published in 2007, at least 66,000 women and girls in Britain have had the procedure performed on them, and more than 20,000 girls under the age of 15 are currently at risk.

These figures, however, may be only the tip of the iceberg. A 2011 Department of Health policy paper warns that "it is possible that, due to population growth and immigration from practicing countries…FGM is significantly more prevalent than these figures suggest."

FGM is thought to be common in Britain among immigrant groups from Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Gambia, Indonesia, Iraq, Kenya, Kurdistan, Liberia, Mali, Nigeria, Northern Sudan, Pakistan, Sierra Leone, Somalia and Yemen.

The rest here.

It's unbelievable to think that this still happens in the 21st century in the West, and that it's actually becoming epidemic. It's all about education, but the only ones who can influence the parents of these young girls are the Imams, and that doesn't seem likely, because FGM is just another way to control women, in a religion that has little respect for them.

Israel Wiped Off Map In UK Textbook


From The Gatestone Institute - A textbook that has wiped Israel off the map and promotes anti-Western propaganda is being endorsed by the British Council, which is sponsored by the British Foreign Office.

Ahmadinejad promised it. Now British textbooks are doing it. Israel has been wiped off the map by Garnet Education, an English-language teaching company in Britain, whose educational textbook 'Skills in English Writing Level 1', aimed at foreign students and immigrants to the UK, contains a map with "Occupied Palestine" in place of the Jewish State.
Speaking to the Algemeiner, the prominent American Jewish newspaper which broke the story, school teacher Liz Wiseman noted that the book is "one of the more popular and mainstream English language teaching (ELT) textbooks published by Garnet, which is quite popular and mainstream itself."
The rest here.

These textbooks should be trying to help these people adapt to the West, not appeal to their already negative perceptions.

It's shameful the British government is allowing these kinds of books to be used as part of its educational system, let alone endorse them.
