Well what a surprise – or rather not. Didsbury mosque revealed as hotbed of Jew hatred

The Didsbury Mosque where the Manchester Arena bomber and his family worshiped and which has been the subject of an alleged threatening letter and white powder incident

 

Despite the Didsbury Mosque attempting to paint itself as paragons of moderation following one of their former congregants being engaged in mass murder, it seems that this mosque contains and has hosted speakers who are far from moderate and very far from tolerant.

In a disturbing piece from Ms Pamela Geller, it has been revealed that the ‘peaceful Muslims’ of Didsbury have been showing quite a lot of hatred towards Jews and Israeli Jews in particular. Ms Geller then showed some examples of the sort of violent rhetoric that had been coming out of mosque officials. Ms Geller pointed to Fawzi Haffar, who gave it the usual ‘religion of peace’ spiel on BBC news but away from the cameras the mask comes off and his social media reads like something out of Mein Kampf. Haffar said:

Ms Geller’s website said:

Also, look at this about Didsbury Mosque: it has condemned the Manchester jihad massacre, but it hosts antisemitic, anti-kuffar, and anti-gay Muslim spokesmen.

“Two Muslim leaders from Manchester presented as voices of coexistence following terrorist attack alleged to have sent antisemitic tweets,” Campaign Against Antisemitism, May 25, 2017:

In recent days, as Manchester reels from the atrocity inflicted at the Manchester Arena, Fawzi Haffar and Dr Siema Iqbal have been presented as local Muslim leaders in Manchester who speak out firmly against extremism, but according to a collection of tweets brought to light by Manchester-based North West Friends of Israel, both Mr Haffar and Dr Iqbal eschew their moderate messages when it comes to Jews.

Mr Haffar is a trustee of Manchester Islamic Centre, known as Didsbury Mosque, where the terrorist who committed the atrocity in Manchester on Monday night is said to have been a worshipper. Mr Haffar told the media in a widely-broadcast public commemoration of the victims of the attack that the centre caters to people of “all backgrounds and faiths, from our food and clothes banks, to all our inter-faith dialogues”.

Sadly, Mr Haffar’s tweets convey a very different message when it comes to Jews. In one tweet from 2014, he told another Twitter user (who has been suspended): “You are so ignorant!!! Your time will come and if you are a #Zionist then I know you will be gone”. Minutes later he tweeted: “You killed our #prophet Jesus and pretend you are our friends, you #ZioNazi are baaaaaaaad”. Screenshots provided by North West Friends of Israel showed further antisemitic tweets which appear to have been posted by Mr Haffar. Under the International Definition of Antisemitism, “Using the symbols and images associated with classic antisemitism (e.g. claims of Jews killing Jesus or blood libel) to characterise Israel or Israelis” is antisemitic, as is “Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis”.

Sadly, what we have here is yet another example of Muslim community leaders speaking peace wit one face and speaking hatred with another. This is a classic example of Islamic taqiyya where dissembling is used to divert attention away from some aspect of Islam or its theology that many non Muslims would consider to be unacceptable, such as Jew-hatred or blowing little girls to smithereens at a pop concert. When you see this sort of thing is it any wonder that many of us now refuse to believe Muslim spokespersons when they speak about Islam? How can we live in peace and trust with Muslims when their community leaders lie to us so outrageously in this manner?

These further revelations about this Salafi mosque do not surprise me but I’m angered at the mainstream media for letting Haffar and others connected to this mosque spout dishonest guff about Islam being a ‘religion of peace’. This blog has done a previous piece on this mosque and these revelations further convince me that this Salafi mosque, with its dodgy clientèle and Jew haters should be shut down immediately by the Government. It’s an utter scandal that institutions like Didsbury Mosque have been allowed to spread their poison for so long and it’s time that this boil was lanced.
