'We speak up for Israel and we get death threats'
Britain has become a very difficult place to support Israel. Just ask any MP that does (Hat Tip: Atlas Shrugs).Two years after Labour's Stephen Timms was stabbed by a radicalised [Muslim] student, security remains a key concern, especially for MPs who are vocal about controversial topics such as Israel - and suffer threats as a consequence. Two weeks ago Conservative MP John Howell was forced to seek police protection after becoming the target of a campaign by pro-Palestinians.Why does this keep happening? Because Britain cannot acknowledge that it has a problem. You won't find articles like this on the BBC or in al-Guardian. And that's where the US is heading too. Last week, there was a report on the radio here that the Obama administration has deleted hundreds of pages from FBI manuals(!!!) because they are 'offensive to Muslims.'
Louise Ellman, Labour MP for Liverpool Riverside, has been dealing with death threats for a decade. The problem has worsened in recent years and she now receives emails as well as letters. "It's very unpleasant and I am concerned - so I take advice from the police and the CST," said Mrs Ellman. "You are vulnerable as an MP, people approach you and you're in public places."
Lee Scott, Ilford North MP, said he dealt with death threats and abusive communications "on a fairly regular basis", including a recent email that said he should be "stoned to death".
"At one stage I would do my surgeries with just one other person present. I don't do that any more," he said. He also no longer posts details of his surgeries in the local library and during the last election campaign had to be accompanied by police officers for security reasons.
Their cases are by no means unique. Former Labour MP Andrew Dismore also received death threats.
Mr Dismore, along with Mr Scott, Mike Gapes and Denis MacShane were all targeted at the last election by Muslim group MPAC for their support of Israel. Richard Harrington, now MP for Watford, also faced hostility during his campaign, while in October 2011 members of the now-banned group Muslims Against Crusades stormed Finchley and Golders Green MP Mike Freer's constituency surgery shouting that he was a "Jewish homosexual pig".
What could go wrong?

Thee Muslim extremists who attack MP's for supporting Israel are stupid and demented. They should leave all the anti Israel activity to the Christians and the Churches.
They are far better at it.
Melanie Philips and Juniper in the Desert type do not belong in a democracy. Pack your bags you two and get out.
Britian is one of the most Islam friendly places on earth, which is why it thrives. God bless Britain. Eton College was one of the first to introduce an Islamic prayer hall. The Queen allows Friday prayers at Buckingham Palace, and the British Royals are Islamophilic.
Islam and Britain are 1000% compatible.

Anti-Israel Culture War of British Liberal Elites Is Not a Grassroots Movement
or, Explaining the British-Led Culture War on Israel
by Peter C Glover (July 2009)

It's not just Hamas rockets that regularly strike Israeli interests these days. It is just as likely to be the long-range politicized 'ordnance' of British liberal elites, given the British Left's penchant for pursuing cultural boycotts against Israel.
Over the past few years the unions for British journalists, architects, doctors, even the Synod of the Church of England, have all sought boycott or censure motions against Israel. In 2007 British academics added themselves to the list - imposing a boycott of relations between British and Israeli universities at a conference of the British University and Colleges Union (UCU).
Dear Great Britain,
Enjoy your muslima biatches such as Chayma.
Nice knowing you, UK. Cheerio!
Dear Shy Guy, I'm not British.
Borders and flags are meaningless, and temporary, the only flag I recognise, is the one one which exist when every other one has gone, the black and white one with the Shahda, whose ruler is eternal :)
Well rest assured that when MP's are assassinated by Muslim extremists, British judges have already decided that being insufficiently 'tolerant' and obsequious to the most violently insane fringes of Islam is itself, adequate justification for an acquittal.
Chayma, I am flattered more than you can know, to be mentioned in the same sentence as Melanie Phillips!! And now I am being ordered out of my country by an alien follower of a totalitarian, murdering and raping cult?? So much for a "thriving democracy"!! Hehehehe!!
PS: this is the "thriving" the mozlems excel at:

Don't worry Carl, our intelligence services take threats against MPs very seriously and IP addresses, email addresses are being tracked to their owners who will face jail.

Islamic Finance Magazine

The Financial Times' hugely positive appraisal of London’s Islamic finance sector is supported by a raft of new ventures and policies, which have helped Britain forge ahead of its neighbours to become a western hotbed of Sharia’a enterprise.
Gordon Brown has long wanted Britain to become the international centre of Islamic finance, and, buoyed by his encouragement, British firms increased trade with Arab countries by 60% in the six years to 2007.
Seminal economic thinktank the Adam Institute, a seminal economic thinktank, now has its own Islamic finance team, and the London Enterprise Office delivered a profile on Sharia’a-compliant banking in the summer.
The UK is currently the only state within the European Union to accommodate Islamic banks, and senior financial figures believe it is likely to become the first country in the west to issue a sovereign sukuk.
Furthermore, Britain’s Islamic finance industry is likely to diversify in the months ahead. Salaam Insurance recently, launched Europe's first Sharia’a-compliant car insurance, aimed at Britain's 700,000 Muslim drivers.

England may become Muslim state

It is worthy of note that the number of native British citizens converting to Islam has been growing too. Many of them decide to change their religion in the endeavour to improve their financial well-being. The role of Muslim individuals in the British society has been getting more and more important recently. Muslims’ incomes are higher as opposed to those of Christians. There are a lot of Muslim real estate owners in Great Britain. Recent opinion polls conducted among British Muslims aged from 25 to 34 showed that an average Muslim person makes up to 25 pounds sterling ($50,000) a year, which is a bigger number in comparison with an average Briton.

Speaking of murdering cult, are you talking about of Joshua? You surely cannot be referring to Islam as in the gift that keeps giving......witness Islam's spectacular history.....the hand of God at work :) just as foretold in the Quran.

R. Briffault: The Making of Humanity.
"The Miracle of Arabic science, using the word miracle as a symbol of our
inability to explain achievements which were almost incredible...
unparalleled in the history of the world."
"There is not a single aspect of European growth in which the decisive
influence of Islamic civilization is not traceable"
"It is highly probable that but for the Arabs modern European civilisation
would never have arisen at all; it is absolutely certain that but for them,
it would not have assumed that character which has enabled it to transcend all previous phases of evolution."
