We’ve seen this week that the government’s proposed inquiry into the Muslim grooming gangs has made zero progress. It is beset with problems. No-one wants to chair it, there are arguments over its remit, as well as allegations that the government is fiddling with these to make it part of a more general inquiry into grooming gangs. One that would, no doubt, serve to hide the distinctive ethnic and religious nature of the Muslim gangs. Several of the gangs’ victims have resigned from the inquiry feeling that they were being ignored. One woman was called a liar by Jess Phillips. Phillips has been criticised for her stance on female sexual and domestic abuse. She is firmly against it, except, so it is alleged, when it is White women being assaulted by Muslims.
It has been claimed that this reluctance by Labour to confront the gangs is due to the party’s reliance on Muslim votes. Phillips only has a majority of 1,000. If Muslims in her constituency therefore get so offended they stop voting for her, she’s likely to lose her seat. There have also been allegations by Raja Miah that Labour councillors and MPs, including Andy Burnham, ignored the grooming gangs and actively hid them because their leaders were respected members of the Muslim communities who delivered Muslim block votes to the party. Others have challenged Miah’s reliability on this.
But there are also issues about Muslim attitudes towards White, non-Muslim women. One of the Muslim councillors who tried to bring the grooming gangs to light stated that she was brought up in an environment of hatred and contempt for White women and their sexuality. The police claimed that racism was not involved. But as the video below shows, the Muslim grooming gangs were extremely racist, calling their victims ‘White sluts’ and other degrading insults, and telling them that their only value was as as objects to be abused and raped by Muslim men.
Why this reluctance to admit that these Pakistani Muslims were motivated by racial and religious hatred? Some of it is, no doubt, due to the very nature of the anti-racism movement itself. This grew out of the Black liberation movements, which were aimed at combating White racism and oppression of people of colour. Anti-White racism is not seen as a problem. It is either denied, or pushed to one side on the grounds that the real problem is White racism. There are plenty of books and college courses about White racism, but I have yet to see one about anti-White racism. There are also fears that anyone who raises the issue will be smeared as racist themselves The authorities are also afraid of riots and pogroms, and the possibility that such information could lead to the victory of a real Fascist party like Hitler’s wretched Nazis.
Yet the racist attitude that White women are hypersexual sluts, who enjoy being raped and deserve to be abused by Muslim men has a very long history, going all the way back to Mohammed. This is shown very clearly by Raymond Ibrahim in the video below. Ibrahim is an American of Coptic Christian heritage. He’s a scholar of Islam, but is part of the anti-Islam counterjihad crowd. He will therefore very definitely not get tenure in an academia geared towards presenting a sanitised version of Islam. Nevertheless, all the quotations here are backed up through citations, and are taken from reputable texts.
He starts off with accounts of the racist and sexual abuse hurled at girls in Britain, Germany and Australia by the grooming gangs, taken from newspaper reports. He quotes a British imam, who said that the majority of British imams teach that women are second class citizens and have a very misogynistic attitude. But there is an especial hatred of White women.
Then there are the historical examples. One is from the hadith, the traditions about Mohammed. In this hadith, Mohammed tries to persuade a newly converted Arab to join his campaign against Byzantium by telling him that he will be able to take light-haired or light-skinned Byzantine women as his sex slaves. The Arabs saw Byzantine women as the most beautiful, and they were highly prized as sex slaves. Ibrahim then quotes scholars of Islam’s relationship with Byzantium. These stated very clearly that Byzantine women were seen by the Arabs as shameless, promiscuous sluts and whores, with nuns offering themselves to monks. This image only existed in their perverted imaginations, as Byzantine society required women to be modest, retiring and devoted to their families. He doesn’t mention it, but some have argued that the burqa and niqub entered Islam through Byzantium, which had picked up the custom from the kingdom of Palmyra.
He then quotes Abu Uthman al-Jahiz, born 775, who salivated over the beauty, and perceived sexual willingness of a shipload of Frankish (European) women. When the Crusaders were finally conquered by the Muslims under Saladin, there were similar remarks from Muslim chroniclers, rejoicing over the prospect of these women’s rape and sexual enslavement by Muslim Arabs, including that of nuns. Ibrahim concludes by observing that there is a continuity of attitudes here. But if you notice it in Britain, you’ll get arrested. This is clearly a reference to the way the government is trying to keep a lid on this scandal through hate speech legislation.
He doesn’t mention it in the video, but the 9/11 hijackers also had vicious fantasies about the rape and degradation of western women.
Now obviously not all Muslims have these attitudes, and I know White British women who married Muslim husbands. These women said that their partners treated them like ladies. But it does show that there is a problem within the Muslim community with highly misogynistic attitudes to White women. Attitudes of deep antiquity which the political establishment fears to tackle.
