This post is dedicated to the indomitable spirit of Dr M, whose exploration and ritual 'abusement' of Pro-regressive's in North America shall never cease to amuse and cause cringing.
As we already know, a bunch of cruel ex-HT damaged goods are making a lot of money and ego on the 'Combating Extremism' front. Its embarrassing for those who love Islam and Muslims and believe that a better future is possible. Some of these damaged goods have formed The Quilliam Foundation. I am not hyper linking to the site in case I catch something virulent. You can google them, but that might raise their web rankings. This Quilliam Foundation entity takes money from questionable sources and continues the HTinspired practice of; seeking to brainwash the bewildered, abusing mass media, pretending and failing to be either intellectual or 'real' and generally being annoying but still damaging to the good name of Muslims.
So lets have a look at the frauds, nimuk-harams (south asian for ungrateful little shits) and fasiqs operating in the Quilliam fold. Abdullah William Quilliam is seen as one of the first UK Muslims who did stuff, he was a cool person who i would have liked to have met. Allah raise his good deeds. His descendants definitely would have nothing to do with the filth that are abusing his good name. The pretenders are using the logic of "White is Right", my two readers have indicated that i'm not allowed to use a certain term that rolls easily out of my brain anymore. So i will use the title of Franz Fanon's book "Black Skin, White Mask" and leave a little for the imagination.
Its just not going to work if we do strange things like:

Its just not going to work if we do strange things like:
- Go on about the good days of Andalucia and pretend we are them, then go revive the maliki madhab and expect south asian hanafis to jump.
- Pick a random darling white bro from the past and fudge a genealogy from of him to us.
- Deny our ancestral rootings.
- Be all cliquey.
- Jump onto a movement caravan from south asia, west asia or east asia.
- Stop at collecting the Ummah's Greatest Hits Volume 15 and neglect creating our own thing from the Engines of Creation bestowed upon us.
Anyway, that's all a question of taste, and/or strategy for building a more beautiful millet. These chaps don't care. Every time they get a broadcast platform they do not cease from their poisoning and fake righteous indignation. They even managed to malign Mufti Ceric of Sarejevo the other night. They want everybody as rootless and flacid as them. Some of them probably just want to get laid by people with double barrelled names. (erm yes i meant that metaphorically :-P ) The problem is with these folks, and i feel sad for them, is that they've sold themselves. They will not emerge as leadership and their children might curse them, not pray for them. It's a bit like Mir Jafar, who sold out Sirajudawlah to the British Empire so many years ago.
Sometimes Allah sends humanity counter examples. Men and women for us to know evil through.
Ethical Note:
{Fasiqs are those who spread filth in the land, they are not proper people so the usual conditions of assuming you are dealing with someone with honour no longer apply... i think}
In the diseased urine coloured corner we have Ed (birthname Mahbub) Husein. Who is so ashamed of his Bangladeshi and Sylatian roots that he tries to introduce himself as Assamese in his book. He has sold a self serving picture of his sad life on the open market and stained noble people with his malignant blamestorming operation. If you want to know more about him in his own imagination read his book in a shop or library or nick it from a mate or neocon who unwisely bought it.
In the prissy pink corner we have Majid Nawaz, a rather vile character, even before his imprisonment in Egypt, during which he opted for brainwashing ahead of torture that the other brits incarcerated with him opted for. A chap who regularly lies in front of white audiences about the level of teaching he's had with scholars of Islam. A chap who would go out of his way to make his Muslim brothers feel crap if it made him feel good or benefited his credibility, he still does. A chap who is convinced that he is a descendant of a brother of Muhammad bin Qasim, the early Arab who conquered Sind for a short while. A chap who is thick enough to have deluded himself with an Arab superiority complex which he publically shows off, despite historical improbability. A chap whose racism extends to despising south asians (stupid people who fall for HTism because they don't know Arabic sources... like every lebanese taxi driver). Knowing this leads me to believe that he's the one who is using Ed. He doesn't respect Ed, but has few allies and knows how to use people.
These two above love the media, official and security attention they are getting, who wouldn't ey? It is like a drug. Could so easily turn us all into prostitutes and fools. They slip up revealingly with too high a frequency for Muslims to take them seriously. Even rudeboys, pseudoseculars, non-muslim 'civilians' find them to have dirty minds... smelly brains. But they are not interested in us, it is the bewildered white folks that they are after. Joining these two we have another chap who was suspended from HT for dealing in stolen cars and another confused Bangladeshi who introduces himself as Pathan. You just can't make this stuff up.
I feel sorry for the originators of the HT movement in a way. This is despite all the hurt HTism has caused my loved ones, and the good works that Muslims have done collectively on campuses and what not in the UK. There's good people everywhere who benefit the universe and learn things, the better HT people go to the Muslim world and try to know it, and develop their ideas from multiple sources and avoid cultish behaviour. I do feel sad for the chaps who are in their 30s and 40s and still into boring people to death, maybe i see my future similar to theirs if i'm not careful?!? Deep inside of me I root for those who seek to understand and fix up the Ummah, i wish them many helping hands to finding out the truth and resembling it with their action. This would explain why i'm feeling this way about this episode.
Other movements have faced similar problems, you start sincere and competent and then all these roadies playground fools; decades down the line, in the weirdest of places, come and make a dogs dinner out of your principles and meaning. It's a lesson that we must stop hanging to other people's coat tail and chopping down trees. We must do our own gardening, plant our own cherry blossom trees and mango orchards with lots of things in mind and some flipping imagination and soul.
Look at the music of Gill Scott Heron and the filth that passes for a certain brand of music these days.
So there's the backdrop. The Instigators of this unholy mess were blown apart at the Fabian society Last Sunday. Her Royal Highness Shami Chatrabarti, the Director of Liberty did the groovy honours. She is so glorious that a band called The Dastards wrote a song about her a few years ago. After pouring doubt on the disintegrated Muslim thesis she rebukes 'Ed'. The polite version posted on the Fabian Society website is as follows,
What happened is that Ed in his thickness and lack brain or willingness to grow a brain resorted to a 'you might as well be the BNP' type argument with Our Queen Shami in an animated conversation after they had spoken. As a tireless, consistent defender of civil liberties, ex Home Office employee, brave warrior princess with Deobandi and Hindu family members this didn't go down well with her, accustomed as she is with reality. The scene ended up with MP Sadiq Khan having to physically separate the two and Shami Apa, the people's queen outing Ed as an 'Evil Little Man' in the gaze of the Liberal Establishment.
"In a sharp exchange with Shami Chakrabarti (Director of Liberty), Ed Husain challenged 'liberal do gooders' to be more realistic about the nature of the current terrorist threat. The author The Islamist said that democrats needed to do more to develop a clearer definition of extremism and a deeper understanding of the extremist ideology underpinning it:
'There is a lack of calling a spade a spade on this issue. We need to define extremism, unless we define the beast we will not be able to uproot it', said Husein.
'It will be a long time before I start taking lessons in democracy from someone whose acquaintance with it is so recent', said Chakrabarti."
Ok so its the more tory and perhaps nastier parts of the English soul that Ed & Maajid are aiming to fool. It is this level of booboo behaviour towards a lady, not Maajids terrible attempts at dance and charming the ladies, that is emblematic of this fish's malignant death throw as it awaits suffocation in the warm air of truth.
Who knows how this thing will unravel. I hope there's some redemption.
No duck billed platypii were harmed in the making of this post.
