Holocaust Day boycott by Muslim Council
The Telegraph.com ^ | 24 Jan 2005 | George Jones

The Muslim Council of Britain are planning to boycott this week's commemoration of the Holocaust because they claim it is not racially inclusive.

The Queen, Prince Philip and Tony Blair will represent the nation at Thursday's Holocaust Memorial Day national event at Westminster Hall, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

More than 600 Holocaust survivors together with British soldiers who helped liberate the camps will attend.

Iqbal Sacranie, the secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain, says it will not attend because the event did not include what it described as continuing human rights abuses and genocide in the occupied territories of Palestine.

I have to admit they may have a point. Islamists seem to be all inclusive in the murder of those that don't believe in Islam or criticize it.

This is like death boycotting the funeral of a loved one.

The Euros are headed for a train wreck -- they have given too much away to the Islamofacists already.

You're absolutely right. No matter how hard I try to vilify these modern day Islamofascists within the constraints of our redefined rules of free speech they continue to outdo and outpace me. They are truly clever devils.

Note to TMCoB: I didn't notice you trying to join inclusively with the Jews at Auschwitz (et al). Had you, I might be inclined to sympathize... might... but probably not.

.

... In a stunning related development, reports are surfacing that millions of Jews across the globe are not, repeat not, planning to participate in Ramadan this year, and many have decided to forgo the pilgrimage to Mecca.

Well...

My problem is that even the quote un quote "good ones" never say anything bad about the abusive ones. It's.. "Well they are all infadels anyway so who cares".

Nice...can you spell Jhiad == Genocyde == Kill Whi**y

I'm a christain and it make my hear sad to here these harsh words comming from a supposed peacefull religion. More like a religion of abusive power...zero tolerance...no freedom...no rights...

I don't get it.

Good grief gimie a break..

Well I guess that really deals a blow to the Islamic tourist industry cum religion. Wow. That one almost blew my socks off when I dropped my primers laughing. Lesson? Never try reloading while engaging in a Freep.

First, no one invited them

Second, no one wants them to the commemoration, anyway

Last, but not least, who cares?

"The new Nazis"

Not so new really - the Muslim Brotherhood, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, and the Baath Party were admirers of the Nazis and had very close ties to them during the second World War.
