Revelation 18:3a, “For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries …”

By Robert Spencer, PJ Media – “When the government of Great Britain banned Pamela Geller and me from entering the country for the crime of speaking unwelcome truths about the jihad threat and supporting Israel a bit too vocally, I thought that Britain was a bit too anxious to appease its increasingly aggressive and demanding Muslim minority. When British Prime Minister David Cameron said, ‘I want London to stand alongside Dubai as one of the great capitals of Islamic finance anywhere in the world,’ Britain’s surrender to Sharia became an even more pressing concern, as Cameron will discover that Sharia finance cannot be separated from the rest of Islamic law any more than he could separate a bowl of blood pudding into its constituent parts.

But this past week came five signs that Britain is going to capitulate entirely to Sharia – or else descend into chaos and civil conflict — even sooner than most observers think.

5. Muslim terrifies churchgoers, enters church and shouts: ‘This is rubbish, you should be preaching Allah, turn to Islam’

The Derby Telegraph reported last week that ‘churchgoers were left terrified after believing a 52-year-old man who walked into their church ‘dressed like a terrorist’ on Remembrance Sunday ‘might be armed with a bomb.’’

Mohamed Dar didn’t just walk into the church: as he walked in during a service, wearing a bandana that proclaimed ‘Allahu akbar,’ Dar demanded that the congregants ‘turn to Allah.’ He shouted: ‘This is rubbish, you should be preaching Allah, turn to Islam, we send boys of 10 to war.’ One of the assembled Christians recounted: ‘He was dressed like a terrorist, I though he may have a gun or a bomb or some sort of weapon, I was so frightened.’

It is indicative of how much British non-Muslims have learned to put up with this sort of thing that this incident was reported only in one laconic story in the Derby Telegraph, whereas if a Christian had gone into a mosque anywhere in Britain wearing a bandana that said ‘Jesus is Lord’ and had begun shouting, ‘This is rubbish, you should be preaching the Gospel, turn to Christ,’ it would without the slightest doubt have been national and international news, and the subject of numerous earnest BBC chats featuring media-hyped ‘moderates’ such as Maajid Nawaz, Mehdi Hasan, and Mohammed Ansar, all sounding (in harmony) notes of wounded victimhood.

The incident would be taken as an indication of Britain’s deep-seated ‘Islamophobia,’ and dire need to lay in yet more legal insulation against that vile crime. But Mojamed Dar’s little exercise in dawah (Islamic proselytizing)? That’s just life in Britain today.

4. Two women fined for tearing up Qur’an at soccer match

Two fans of the British soccer team Middlesbrough FC, Julie Phillips and Gemma Parkin, were found guilty Thursday of ‘religiously aggravated harassment’ for ripping pages out of the Qur’an at a soccer match. Phillips was fined £300; Parkin £200. This comes just a few months after another British citizen, Mark Stephenson, was prosecuted and fined for tearing up a Qur’an at a soccer match.

If Mark Stephenson, Julie Phillips and Gemma Parkin had torn and thrown pages of the Bible, would they have been found guilty of ‘religiously aggravated harassment’? Or have the British authorities simply taken it upon themselves to prosecute violators of Sharia blasphemy laws? Tearing up a Qur’an is a violation of Islamic law, not British law. Will Muslims be charged with ‘religiously aggravated harassment’ in Britain for their repeated claim that Moses and Jesus were Muslim prophets?” Read more.

Flashback: The Islamization Of Britain In 2013 – “The Muslim population of Britain topped 3.3 million by the end of 2013 to become around 5.2% of the overall population of 63 million, according to figures extrapolated from a recent study on the growth of the Muslim population in Europe. At the same time, opinion surveys consistently show that voters in Britain view Islam and the question of Muslim immigration as a top-ranked public concern… What follows is a chronological review of some of the main stories involving the rise of Islam in Britain during 2013.” Read more.

Flashback: British Imam: There Will Be More Murder, Beheadings On The Streets Of England – “This unrepentant imam, Anjem Choudary, is the same imam who contends that non-Muslims are all guilty of crimes against ‘Allah.’ During an interview with the BBC in 2005, Choudary asserted that only Muslims were innocent people. Non-Muslims ‘have not accepted Islam, and as far as we are concerned, that is a crime against [Allah]’ … According to Anjem Choudary and all like-minded followers of the ‘prophet’ of Islam, if you don’t believe in ‘Allah’ then you’re rejecting the ‘holy’ Qur’an. If you’re rejecting the ‘holy’ Qur’an you must therefore be embracing something else. And if you’re embracing something else, that could lead to deadly consequences …” Read more.
