Back to Work 2

by shahid on May 15, 2007

I am finally back to work. This is my second week.

My eye is recovering well.

My lower back, which has plagued me for a while, has responded exceptionally well to the work of a quite brilliant osteopath, recommended to me by my good friends at the July Seventh Truth Campaign.

I am settling back into a pattern of work after the quite unusual period I have been through. I won’t enumerate the issues, regular readers are well versed and new readers want new content. It’s coming.

I have been put forward as one of the voices representative of “ordinary Muslims” for a programme that is being prepared for broadcast. It’s probably not wise for me to say much more, but I am both excited and worried in almost equal measure.

I will make this quick, but has anyone been struck by the inordinate amount of coverage that the McCann family are getting? I am a father. Anyone suggesting that I don’t care about children, anybody’s children, will receive short shrift from me. I don’t need to go over my credentials in that area. I will just say the obvious - what has happened to that family is tragic.

No doubt you noticed the 500 pound gorilla in the room. Yes. The word “BUT” in 72 point Impact, Extra Bold.

Why weren’t the McCann parents looking after their children? Did they honestly think that leaving baby twins and a three year old in a house to sleep on their own was sensible? If chavs can get banged up for neglect here in the United Kingdom, then surely these irresponsible middle class fools who were chasing a dinner without kids should be banged up for neglect too? They put poor little Maddy in harm’s way! They are her parents! They are responsible!

My first port of call would be the nearest Catholic priest. Having said that, don’t those paedo scum that the Catholic Church keeps protecting prefer boys anyway? Sick fucking bastards.

Then I’d point fingers at the police. Usually though, it’s the upper echelons of the British Constabulary that are into Freemasonry, opening Scientology CULT centres and raping children.

Then I’d look at the leading British and German paedo scum, because it’s usually them. Sick fucks.

There is at least one thing to come of this, there’s no way they can link Muslims or terrorism or Alan Guido to this.

It’s funny to see the Chavhams and that Potter bimbo stumping up millions as a reward for one little white girl. Oh please, shut up at the back you indignant cunts. I have nothing against white girls. I just hate the way the world seems to value them more than those of other colours. Maybe that’s a little cynical. When the tsunami destroyed south east Asia, the British were generous to a fault. When Bob Geldof told us to send in the fucking money, we did. By the truckload. Funny though, when the earthquake in Pakistan hit, we sent fuck all. If a little brown or black girl goes missing, how many prominent, rich white folk put up rewards?

I think it’s down to protecting “one’s own”. And this is where the press do their bit. They plaster that poor girl’s face over every paper. If nothing else, it might help in her casual recognition. It would just be nice if the same thing happened when a Muslim woman got stoned to the floor. Along with her son. It wasn’t Shari’ah stoning, no. When was the last time that happened anyway? No, it was a gang of white boys in Glasgow, stoning a Muslim woman. You see, we don’t abuse our women the way you do.

I know it’s not the done thing to cry “compassion fatigue” when a child is missing. I love children of all colours. I love children more than I love grown ups. I find that when you smile at a child, it doesn’t think about your colour before it smiles back. That’s not why I smile at them of course. Children are wonderful human beings, full of possibility and creativity. I just love the way they string words together to make the most wonderful sentences. I love the way they embarrass you when you least expect it. I love the way they speak with truth so sharp it makes you wince.

So yes, I feel for Maddy. But I feel for other kids too. And they don’t get media coverage. And they don’t get big celebs with rewards backing them. They get fuck all.

You see, while one white girl gets the white establishment all over the globe worried, our soldiers, and the soldiers of our allies, have been commanded by our bloodthirsty leaders to kill, or cause suffering to millions.

Where is our whiteous indignation at the pregnant woman in Palestine caused to abort by the boot of an Israeli Sturmbahnfuhrer?

Where is our whiteous indignation at the Palestinian children shot dead in their classrooms by Israeli SSsnipers?

Where is our whiteous indignation at the young girl gangraped and burned by white soldiers in Iraq?

Where is our whiteous indigation at the crime against everything the West stands for in Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib and the CIA rendition camps?

Where is our whiteous indignation at the half a MILLION children killed by Western sanctions that Madeline Albright said were “worth it”?

Half a million Arab children, it doesn’t matter how many, it could be 100 million, are not worth the coverage that a single white girl gets. This is beyond racism. One Israeli soldier gets captured, the world gets to hear about it and HUNDREDS of Palestinian CHILDREN are killed. Where is the whiteous indignation?

“Why do they hate us?”

Go figure…

Holy heck in a hand basket! Back with a bang, i see.

Great post bro. True to form. You’re right about protecting “one’s own”. That is the reality that most will not confront or acknowledge. Sadly, this is the world we live in.

Happy to know you are back at work and recovering well. Even your blog looks all ‘funked’ up - wow!

Let me know more details of the program you’ve invited to take part in. Of course, whenever you think it is appropriate to do so.

The Antagonist 05.16.07 at 3:37 pm

Spot on, sir, with regard to every point made.

The McCann parents are guilty of neglect on a hideous scale and have since the unfortunate kidnap of their daughter been playing the part of innocent victims almost too well. It’s as if leaving one’s children alone and unattended was an acceptable form of behaviour.

An example should be made of the parents. Both should be locked up for the neglect, nay abuse, of their children without which the kidnap could not have occurred, and the key should be thrown away.

3

Sean 05.16.07 at 5:10 pm

I think there’s little doubt that, had this child’s parents not been white, middle-class and in the medical profession, but rather were a young couple spending two weeks’ away from their menial jobs in the local Asda and weren’t quite so articulate and photogenic the knives would have been out long ago.

4

Sean 05.16.07 at 5:32 pm

I should say also that the blanket media coverage afforded to this story; the MySpace icons reproducing the Find Maddie poster (I wonder: is that the name her parents use, or rather like James Bulger, is the cuter-sounding contraction merely a confection by the tabloid press keen to elicit every drop of emotion from this sorry story?) or the Everton team wearing her image on their shirts and the faltering appeals from Beckham and Ronaldo aren’t actually simply a precursor to what we do best, which is to give somebody a good kicking. The Great British Public sense blood and they’ll want all the emotion they’re pouring into this drama repaid ten-fold. Cue a summer of knee-jerk hyperbole and tabloid-led campaigns to hang everybody even remotely suspected of being a nonce from the nearest lampost.

I note that the only suspect so far has been tried and found guilty largely because he’s 33 and still lives with his mum. Nonce!

5

StrangeAeon 05.16.07 at 10:24 pm

Well said, and note the ’suspect’ is currently being devoured in a public frenzy without any apparent evidence and certainly lack of any due process.

6

David Eastman 05.17.07 at 12:26 am

As Sean says, cry Nonce! and let slip the Daily Express.

This is another Soham style feeding frenzy. Its almost like the media are told to provide a white grief outlet - too many dead Niggaz on the news just causes agitation.

Given the nature of child abduction, I wouldn’t rag on the parents quite so much. Given the isolation of the area, the kid was almost certainly a target. Only a marsupial could really be upto the job.

The Antagonist 05.17.07 at 2:55 pm

It gets better. The following is from Portugal’s Gazeta Digital:

——————————————————–
Also, a Sky News special report about Madeleine’s case, broadcasted the same date [May 13, 08:00 pm], had a serious breach of basic ethical standards every journalist must respect. During that special report, Sky News gave a single example of a successful case where the British Police was able to find – alive – a child kidnapped. Immediately after that, it gave a single example of one case of a child missing in Portugal [Rui Pereira] that never was found.

Sky News journalist compared the two situations and the conclusion was that the track record of Portuguese Police was a bad one. This is sheer manipulation. Comparing two singles cases and taking conclusions like Sky News did, is going against basic principles from the Code of Practice enforced by the Press Complaints Office, like the obligation of the Press “not to publish inaccurate, misleading or distorted information, including pictures” and the need to correct it, with due prominence.

I’ll remind you that in UK, according to the UK National Police Missing Persons Bureau, there was an average of 124 unsolved cases of missing children under 14, on the last four years. In Portugal, from the 80 cases of missing persons still open, from a legal point of view [missing for more than one year] only nine are children and one of them is Madeleine.

In 2006, the Instituto de Apoio à Criança (IAC, a government department in charge of monitoring child abuse) registered 31 cases of missing underage (-18 years) persons. 24 of them were found by the police. This is a rate of 77, 43 % of success in finding missing children. Two of them were found to be dead. So let’s put these figures very clear: Portuguese Police has a track record of finding 77, 43 % of missing children, even if 6,45 % of those children were found dead, and 22,58 % are still missing [mainly adolescents running from home]. From those 31 missing children, only 5 [6.45] were between one and five years old.
—————————

So, why the big fuss about one kid in Portugal when there’s rather more missing in the country that is complaining rather vociferously about the Portugese who have a far better track record of finding missing kids?

Something is very wrong with this picture.

shahid 05.17.07 at 4:20 pm

I agree that the picture is distorted. It would also be interesting to see these stats broken down by age. My uninformed guess is that most children that go missing are in their teens and often leave of their own accord. I could be completely wrong, so forgive me, but it would be nice to see the stats for this very reason.

Labour have hardly made this country safer, have they?

Stef 05.17.07 at 6:40 pm

Just repeating a comment I made on Ant’s post on this…

From the Times on-line -

“Would an implanted chip help keep my child safe?”

Or is that kiddy fiddling and abduction?

Probably both…

KosmikK 05.17.07 at 7:51 pm

Right on, Shahid. Totally agree with all you say here. Here’s a new definition for masochism: turn on News 24 every fifteen minutes and have the Maddy Story spewing out from every orifice.

Just shows how the Matrix Media is so bereft of any real news. And how many kids die from First-World induced starvation and disease every day? Yech!!!

shahid 05.17.07 at 10:57 pm

My cat had an implanted chip. A neighbour started feeding her and thus splitting her home, even after we had warned her that the cat was ours. Kind of like what Scientology does to families. Then my cat started sitting in the middle of the road. Half way between her home and the neighbour’s house. Then, one day, whilst sitting there, she got run over and killed by a Domino’s Pizza rider, who didn’t bother to stop and help.

Really useful, those chip implants….

12

KosmikK 05.17.07 at 11:51 pm

Oh, and I forgot to mention: does anyone in the white community ever give a thought to how Muslim children are terrorized in Britain, not just by street yobboes but by our Plods everytime they batter down a door and occupy a perfectly innocent person’s house just because they happen to be Muslim and dark-skinned?

I am not a Muslim but this kind of state-sponsored terrorism makes me fucking angry. And I can’t even begin to describe my contempt for a media which condones it.

That’s just in Britain which is just the tip of the iceberg concerning Anglo-Saxon racism currently focused on the Muslim world. What the Anglo-Saxon alliance is doing in Iraq and Afghanistan is just so horrific that only one word comes to mind: nazi genocide.

It’s against that context the current media hype about one little missing kid should be seen.

Mr Lover lover 05.18.07 at 2:58 pm

What a massive pile of tosh! Just becasue she’s white it’s still in the media?! Bollox, it’s obviously the way the family have tirelously “worked” the media to keep it in the spotlight and do every thing they can to keep the story alive. Thus in their mind giving them a better chance of finding their daughter. Another fine example of this was the Damilola Taylor case, which is STILL in the media, even today, and correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t he black? That story has been running for 7 years! I’m sorry, but I think distorting this story into some “boo hoo aren’t we shat on us non whites” to build yet more hate and tension in this otherwise tolerant and welcoming country is pathetic.
Oh and Kosmikk, yes white people do give thought to how people in this country are wrongly accused for various crimes, but sometimes you have to fuck a few people before you find your perfect match, and if the odd person being wrongly accused saves ONE persons life then it has to be worth it doens’t it?

14

KosmikK 05.18.07 at 4:11 pm

” but sometimes you have to fuck a few people before you find your perfect match, and if the odd person being wrongly accused saves ONE persons life then it has to be worth it doens’t it?”

What ARE you talking about, “you have to fuck a few people before you find your perfect match”?

Your aggressive action is typical of a person in denial. You just can’t/won’t see it will you? You really believe the Plods are about saving lives, do you? Not just taking orders from their political masters?

How’s life in the Blue Pill, Matrix world, mmm?

shahid 05.18.07 at 4:27 pm

KosmikK: the rationale used by Mr L above as also espoused by Germans in the Nazi era.

16

Stef 05.19.07 at 3:46 pm

The thing about what Mr L is saying is that if you genuinely believe the UK is infested with hundreds of terror cells comprised of thousands of highly trained, well-funded, suicidally motivated lunatics with access to nuclear and biological weapons, who want to kill as many people as possible simply because they live in a free country then that does justify some fairly heavy-handed behaviour

But that’s total bullcrap. So it doesn’t

17

shahid 05.19.07 at 7:52 pm

He’s talking about being heavy handed with innocents though. He is saying it was fine to kill JCDM.

18

Stef 05.19.07 at 8:13 pm

That’s understood Shahid but if you buy into the myth of the War on Terror you will accept that as a price worth paying - particularly if someone else does the paying and they’re brown

19

shahid 05.20.07 at 11:05 am

Ah, yes, I understand now…I was just having a lot of difficulty trying to put myself in the shoes of such a person. A person that believes in the War on Terror that is.

Having tried, I now see that the arrest of a non-brown/non-Muslim would enrage such a person further! “See what those terrorist scum have done to us!!!” etc.

20

KosmikK 05.22.07 at 12:28 am

“then that does justify some fairly heavy-handed behaviour”

As you say, Stef. Total bullcrap. I finally figured out what Mr L was saying. It’s rather like saying solve the world’s ‘population problem’ by giving Aids to the Third World countries, most likely what really happened.

I wonder how Mr L would feel if he was one of the people the plods fucked in their relentless war against terrorism!

As I write, I’m getting reports of innocent Muslim lads in Birmingham being threatened by the police to ‘cooperate’ or else their lives would be made difficult. This is the kind of state-sponsored terrorism that is now going on Britain. And sure as hell, if today it’s Muslims, tomorrow it’ll be the rest of us.

Pity the Mr L’s in this country are so blinded by prejudice they can’t see that.

21

shahid 05.22.07 at 9:13 am

That’s just it - if it happened to Mr L and the like, they would just blame Muslims. It wouldn’t occur to them that it might be the government’s fault.

22

Mr Lover lover 05.23.07 at 4:17 pm

Oh yeah, of course it’s the govements fault. They did something that someone didn’t agree with so they should blow up some tube trains and kill a load of innocent people to make them change their mind. Rational, normal thinking. Oh, that’s strange the people who are in charge of stopping this kind of act of random murder have over reacted and have changed the law so they can keep “suspects” for as long as they want. Mmmm, random slaughter of people on their way to work verus detaining people with minor evidence (they must have some reason to arrest people, even if it is just their neighbours ringing the police and saying they’re making odd noises!). First and foremost, there is one very simple rule of thumb that has been TOTALY ignored in this entire argument, mostly with stupid Nazi comments or blame the muslim bullshit, or my personal favorite “he must think that the country is infested with terror cells”. Murder is wrong. Doens’t matter who by, who to, how it’s done, murder is wrong and it needs to stop. Isralis need to stop killing palastelians, but Palastinians need to stop stoning Jewish settlers to death in the street. Dialogue, resolution, and peace is what is required and a total absolute abololition of all religion. It’s total bullshit that feeds weak minds some sort of reason to kill, or be killed. I think I’ll waste my life blowing up some people because they believe in a slightly different version of a story that is the biggest single case of chinese whispers the world has ever seen!!
Get with the program and stop the war, and that means every war, war against Jews, Jews against Muslims, Muslims against Christians, Muslims against Muslims, have you seen what the two differnt Muslim sides are doing to each othere in Iraq?! Did you see what happened in India when the British pulled out in 1947 (?)…surely there’s a better way…maybe it’s down to the flying spagetti monster to save the world. ;-)

Stef 05.29.07 at 1:36 pm

One thing that always impresses me about people who invoke the teachings of Great Richard Dawkins and his ‘Religion is the Cause of all Wars’ bullcrap (there’s that word again) is how they get off thinking they’re being all rational when it’s a plain fact that the root cause of the vast majority off all wars and conflicts boils down to theft, not religion or anything else. Palestine? Vietnam? Korea? WW2? WW1? The Boer War? The Crimean War? The American Civil War? The Napoleonic Wars? The War of Jenkins Ear? All down to religion? For f**k’s sake….

So, abolish away and see if that changes anything. The excuses might change but the wars will continue. Dawkins is a fundamentalist nutter, as dangerous any crazed holy man and as long as people are swallowing his brand of bullcrap they’ll continue to live like mushrooms

Mohammed 06.08.07 at 2:59 pm

Great site brother!

I’m glad you picked up on the Madelaine story. I was thinking exactly the same thing: would the media have given blanket coverage to a black or asian girl who had been abducted?

Is the life of a little white girl with blond hair and blue eyes more important than a child how has brown hair and brown eyes with dark skin? A million children in Iraq were killed through ‘UN’ sanctions in the 1990’s, an action which was supported wholeheartedly by Madalaine Albright (coincidence!), that Jewish zionist. In fact when asked if the sanctions were worth the death of a million children she shockingly replied , ‘yes’.

Where was the blanket coverage and horror for those children? As a father, I know the love a parent has for their child so I feel for Madalaine’s parents.

However, the disproportionate attention given to her by the media is sickening because god forbid if something like that happened to my daughter would she get the same attention? I would expect it, of course I would, but would I get it? Probably not!

In case anyone doesnt understand how dangerous racism is, then this whole episode is a good example. One white child is worth more than a million Iraqi babies.

sick.

keep up the good work bro.

salaam.

YOU CALLED MADDIE a kid if it was a muslim KID missing noone would even bother looking
so dont call maddie just a kid she is an innocent litle girl and belongs with a family,no wonder everybody racist by the way u talk, least if youre KID ever goes missing u can deal with better than the white person just goes to show the level of youre cariness, u filthy pig

F. Ucka 07.01.07 at 1:44 am

“Mate, you’re not just deluded:

“Palastinians need to stop stoning Jewish settlers to death in the street”

You’re nuts!!!!”

Hardly a considered response Shahid, especially considering the postscript “But you are always welcome here!”. I wonder if you can appreciate why readers may consider you to be a “conspiraloon TM”. Furthermore, I hate to dilute this conspiratorial lovefest, but the reason why Madeleine McCann’s case has been so heavily featured in the press is due to the fact that she is/was a British child. I hate to disillusion you, but the press worldwide covers stories of regional/national significance as a priority and thus sublimates perhaps more worthy subject matter into the shoter ‘column inches’. It is thus and, perhaps, ever shall be. The press functions on this premise; the ‘public’ respoond to matters which appear ‘close to home’, real or imagined and whether you like it or not, rail against it, call it a conspiracy, berate its sensationalism or criticise its lack of coverage of ‘your issues’, I’m afraid it’s tough titties. People want to hear/read about tragedy which appears to be ‘close to home’ and all your ranting and conspiratorial gerrymandering will not alter that slant one iota.

Enjoy the communal self-denial in which you seem so happy to reside, whilst your ‘brothers’ at notable publications such as ‘The Dawn’ have to contend with far greater attacks on their journalistic integrity and resist penning ‘rabble-rousing’ conspiracy editorials.

If I may, I also wish to add that Mr L’s comments were unpleasant, but is this a rational retort?

“the rationale used by Mr L above as also espoused by Germans in the Nazi era”

Thanking you, in peace

That’s “Conspiraloonâ„¢“, by the way. It is a globally registered trademark of the Conspiraloonâ„¢ Alliance by virtue of the universal law of do what thou wilt it shall be the whole of the law of the Internet, whereas, “Conspiraloon TM” is an acronym for, “Conspiraloonâ„¢ Togo Militia” who are fighting the eternal fight of the Conspiraloonâ„¢ Alliance on behalf of our West African brothers and sisters.

One kid missing in Portugal, big news. 124 kids missing in the UK and who’d have known if it wasn’t for Portugese journal?

If you’re going to go with the moral equivalence gambol, a degree of equivalence always helps.

31

F. Ucka 07.04.07 at 12:25 am

Re “Conspiraloon™“ thank you so much for correcting me, but I don’t know how to ‘raise’ the trademark symbol via a keyboard. I wholeheartedly apologise for my typing peccadillos.

With regards to the “moral equivalence gambol” I would like to point your adulterated minset to the recent media ‘revelations’ that panchayat-endorsed gang rape occurs in Pakistan and India. To paraphrase; ‘xxx women gang-raped as a result of village-council decrees and who’d have known if it wasn’t for a XXX report?’ Now do you understand the sense of equivalence? Perhaps not. That doesn’t happen! It’s a media conspiracy!

Let me explain, if I may. My grandparents were Kailasha, so, naturally, I have problems with the Ummah. I may ‘appear’ to be a threat to my neighbours. Do I resent this? Perhaps, but I don’t require a lesson in moral relatavism from you sir.

I came in peace, but now I understand. Maybe we should all return to our few remaining valleys and die peacefully. How dare we question the right of Islamic interpretration of facts to cloud our judgement or our concilliation.

“a degree of equivalence always helps”.

Indeed it does, sir. Why don’t you try to understand that? ‘The Antagonist’; what a name! I pity you, sir.

steve 09.12.07 at 8:54 pm

like the article, in fact the site contains a lot of punchy edgy writing, its a style i like.

however you seem to have broken one of your own rules with the following comment…

from the “my rules” section of your site…
“Anyone insulting Allah (swt), His Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) or any of the prophets for that matter is liable for deletion. I don’t insult other religions here, so please refrain from insulting mine.”

your comment…
“My first port of call would be the nearest Catholic priest. Having said that, don’t those paedo scum that the Catholic Church keeps protecting prefer boys anyway? Sick fucking bastards.”

not a muslim, not a catholic, dont have issues with people knocking other peoples religions or chosen lifestyle. it makes for an interesting life full of flavour.

just a shame you set your own standards and then break them.

35

shahid 09.12.07 at 11:36 pm

Steve - well spotted. I make mistakes. I apologise, but I was referring to a real case, real people, real facts. There really were priests protected by the Catholic Church who had been guilty of systematic child abuse. Still, it’s possible I crossed the line. In no way was I attempting to smear all Catholics.
