From Elsewhere: What if…?

Tell Mama and Fiyaz Mughal are still engaged on their 'Taqiyya Oddessy'.

 

The writer Daniel Greenfield has posed a particularly interesting ‘what if’ question about Greater Manchester Police (GMP). He is asking if the close relationship that GMP has with the mendacious grievance mongering taqiyya artists of the discredited Tell Mama group, meant that this force was more concerned about ‘Islamophobia’ than the threat of Islamic terror?

The evidence, as set out by Mr Greenfield, certainly points in the direction of Chief Constable Ian Hopkins of Greater Manchester Police allowing himself to be overly influenced by Tell Mama. He’s been influenced by Tell Mama to the extent where the Chief Constable has been quoting Tell Mama’s ‘reports’ on ‘Islamophobia’ as unvarnished truth, without taking into consideration that a) Tell Mama have a proven reputation for being economical with the truth and b) that many of the academics that they use to back up their reports are ones with either a leftist or Islamic bias. For example the main sources of academic backing that Tell Mama use come from either certain individuals closely associated with Tell Mama in the Criminology Dept of Birmingham University or the left leaning ‘Centre for Fascist, Anti-Fascist and Post Fascist Studies at Teeside University, neither of these sources scream ‘unvarnished truth’ to me and nor do they to many others.

The suggestion being made by Mr Greenfield as I see it is that under Tell Mama’s influence and maybe under the influence of Tell Mama’s founder Fiyaz Mughal, the Greater Manchester Police may well have wasted a large amount of police resources on tackling ‘Islamophobia’. These are police resources that were obviously diverted from elsewhere possibly from front line policing. The focus that the senior management team at GMP seem to have put on ‘Islamophobia’ may also have affected the attitudes of the ordinary low ranking police officer. It is they who may well have felt that making a fuss about dodgy Muslims favouring Jihad would get them into trouble with their Islam appeasing boss and Islamic extremism stuff that should have been acted upon was not acted upon. It should never be forgotten that a management policy in any entity that appeases Islam has the effect of preventing lower ranking staff from voicing concerns about the questionable behaviour of certain individual Muslims. It is a chilling thing to consider that maybe 22 people would be alive today if GMP had concentrated more on the pro-active policing Islamic communities and less on hounding people for voicing negative opinions of Islam?

Daniel Greenfield, writing in Front Page Magazine, said:

Why did the Manchester Arena bombing by a second-generation Muslim refugee take place? We can look to the top.

After trying to hide the name of the Muslim bomber, Manchester police were forced to acknowledge it when it went public. Why hide it? Because the Libyan bomber was a Muslim and a second-generation refugee. Both are politically inconvenient.

Instead of asking Muslims to step up and report possible plots, Greater Manchester Chief Constable Ian Hopkins warned everyone not to be Islamophobes.

“We understand that feelings are very raw right now and people are bound to be looking for answers. However, now, more than ever, it is vital that our diverse communities in Greater Manchester stand together and do not tolerate hate.”

Hopkins’ account shows every sign that he was on top of the key issues that led to this attack. Like gay rights and promoting claims of Islamophobia by Tell Mama.

Ian Hopkins didn’t just promote Tell Mama on social media. He cited its “report” of “hate crimes.”

For those who don’t know the background of Tell Mama then you need to know that they are notorious ‘Islamophobia’ hoaxers. In 2013 Tell Mama temporarily lost their government funding due to outrageous lies they told in the wake of the Islamic murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby, but unfortunately Ministers and Civil Servants in the Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) quietly renewed the funding when the fuss over Tell Mama’s lying had calmed down. Tell Mama had claimed following the murder of Fusilier Rigby, that there was a ‘massive rise in Islamophobia’ which turned out not to be the case. Tell Mama was dishonestly classifying people saying nasty, but often true, things about Islam online in the same category as people being punched in the face. Mr Greenfield needs to know that he is not correct to say that the Tell Mama funding was completely cut as these charlatans are still getting £181k per year in Taxpayer funds via the DCLG.

Mr Greenfield then goes on to decry the Islamophobia hoaxers of Tell Mama and their association with Chief Constable Ian Hopkins of GMP. He also detailed some of the thuggish and threatening behavior and seriously dodgy contacts that has been hallmark of Tell Mama and those connected with them.

Mr Greenfield said:

Contrary to the group’s claim of a “cycle of violence” and a “sustained wave of attacks”, only 17 of the 212 incidents, 8 per cent, involved the physical targeting of people and there were no attacks on anyone serious enough to require medical treatment.

This is common enough. Islamophobia is a hoax. It’s a way to censor political dissent and the truth about Islamic terrorism. And yet, when Hopkins should have been preparing for the next Islamic terror attack, he was promoting Islamophobia claims instead by a thuggish organization.

In mid-May, before Woolwich, one Jewish activist, Ambrosine Chetrit, received a threatening letter from solicitors after she tweeted that “Tell Mama are sitting on Twitter on the EDL hashtag, threatening anyone and everyone whose comments they do not like about Islam”.

Tell Mama also objected to a tweet in which Ms Chetrit said it was “trying to close down pro-Israel [Twitter] accounts daily”.

Other recipients of legal threats at the same time include Atma Singh, a former race adviser to the then Labour mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, who received a legal letter from Tell Mama after tweeting that it “gives a platform to Islamists”.

The letters were written by Farooq Bajwa, a solicitor who has acted for a number of Islamists and Islamist sympathisers, including the Palestinian radical leader Raed Salah and the Respect MP George Galloway.

The letters to Mr Singh and Ms Chetrit were sent to their private home addresses, neither of which are in the public domain. Ms Chetrit’s lawyer, Mark Lewis, who has acted for many phone-hacking victims, has reported Mr Bajwa and Tell Mama to the police after they refused to say how they obtained the information.

Why was Ian Hopkins pushing this instead of doing his job? If he had done his job instead of crying Islamophobia, would 22 young British people still be alive today?

Yes indeed. Why was Chief Constable Hopkins consorting with such a dishonest, thuggish and dodgy group such as Tell Mama? The question whether, under the baleful influence of Tell Mama, took their eyes of the terrorist ball in order to tackle ‘Islamophobia’ is a relevant one. Another question to ask is that bearing in mind Tell Mama’s history of dishonesty why is this group or other groups associated with Tell Mama’s shady founder Fiyaz Mughal, still being funded by the DCLG? We should also ask whether any body who is associated with Tell Mama, either in the past or in the present, such as Fiyaz Mughal himself, are fit and proper persons to advise police officers, the Crown Prosecution Service and other government agencies.

It’s a horrific thing to consider whether a more judicious choice of friends and policies by Greater Manchester Police could have prevented the Islamic attack in Manchester on May the 22nd 2017. In any event this case and Tell Mama’s connections to a police force that appeared to put too great an emphasis on tackling ‘Islamophobia’ should propel Britons to demand that this group and those closely associated with it are in future excluded from public funding and from any influence over government policy and especially with regards to crime and justice matters. The threat we all face from Islamic terror is too great to allow charlatans like Tell Mama to get police to divert attention away from the real danger of terror onto the fake danger of ‘Islamophobia’.

    In any conflict, the coward will always join sides with the bully against the victim.
    Like “Britain’s top-terror cop”, Mark Rowley post-Westminster, Hopkins stands revealed as just another Left-wing liar, coward, fool, and quislamist

      Agree there. Those who are supposed to protect us from bullies such as the ideology of Islam are instead siding with it. This will not end well.
