What A Friend We Have In Allah
The Devil's Kitchen has been having a merry old time with this drivelling, authoritarian post from Neil Harding, a Labour supporter from Sussex.
However, a quick shufti round Harding's blog revealed this classic post - 'The Truth about Hizb ut-Tahrir'.
The post contains the following comments -
It is a legal, non-violent organisation that has no links to terrorism and no terrorist has ever been a member of it.
Yes, it has extreme irrational views. It wants the unification of all Muslims into one state- the Caliphate under Sharia law.
There are many such groups of all religions. There are far worse organisations than this, arguably the BNP, Jehovah's Witnesses, countless scientology cults etc etc".
Hold on a minute. The Jehovah's are oddities for sure, but worse than Islamist extremists? One cannot recall a single incident of a Jehovah's Witness blowing themself up on a Tube train; or expressing sympathy for Jehovahs who have blown themselves up in other countries; or, indeed, calling for all Jehovah's to be united in one land, under one law, under one leader.
Whay would such a leader be called? 'The Great Jehovie's Boabie'?
On can almost hear the strains of the new Hizb ut-Tahrir anthem wafting from the minarets of Muswell Hill:
"What a friend we have in Allah,
He says Jews are good to hate,
And the gates of Heav'n will open
When we all self-detonate.
What a friend we have in Allah,
He rules how we live our lives,
And he says 'Yes' to honour-killing,
Taking slaves and beating wives.
And the stage of Allah's drama
There, for all the world to see,
Is where the mighty feared Osama
Would shout "one-nil" at Highbury!
What a friend we have in Allah,
He guides us along the road,
And we all shout 'Discrimination!'
That's our one-note default mode"
And you did read the date on Neil Harding's original post correctly.
It is dated July 22 2005.

Jehovahs believe in stopping their dying children from receiving blood transfusions after an accident.
That sounds pretty extreme to me.
The media hysteria over HuT that led to Dilpazier Azlam losing his job was ridiculous.
This organisation do not support terrorism, driving them underground will make them more extreme. Just as it would be counter-productive to ban Jehovahs or the BNP, it will prove counter-productive to ban HuT.
