Islamists Won the U.K. Elections

George Galloway (L) at a meeting with Saddam Hussein.

“From the river to the sea,” roared Scotsman George “Gaza” Galloway, Saddam Hussein’s friend who swam with Fidel Castro, and who doesn’t mind wearing designer clothes while leading his followers like an Islamic cleric.

“This is for Gaza”, Galloway said. The left-wing populist blowhard took away Labour’s two decades of dominance in Rochdale, the former Manchester-area textile town that was the scene of the infamous child abuse scandal in which Pakistani immigrants committed horrific sex crimes against teenage girls and working class white women for many years.

Labour’s candidate, Azhar Ali, told a party meeting that Israel had “allowed” the October 7 Hamas massacre to take place to give it the “green light” to invade Gaza.

In recent days, the Conservatives ousted the Tory vice-president who had accused the mayor of London of being “controlled by Islamists.”

Meanwhile, a conservative minister has resigned because he says he doesn’t want to end up killed by Islamic extremists who killed a colleague.

The former prime minister, Liz Truss, just said at a conference in America that she fears Islamic parties will take power in various cities.

The issue is also raised by former Home Secretary Suella Braverman (forced to resign because she wanted a crackdown on immigration) in her article in the Telegraph, in which she states: “This is no longer the great country I knew. Islamists are forcing Britain to submit.”

Meanwhile, “no-white theaters” are arriving in London this week: theatrical performances where only black spectators will be admitted to the city. As the producers explained, the goal is to create “an environment where an all-Black audience can experience and discuss an event free from the white gaze.”

Mosques are on the rise in British cities; there are thousands of new buildings with domes and minarets and in the decades to come mosques will mushroom across the country.

Damn you, Mr. Churchill!

All this happens because Europe doesn’t count the immigration’s percentages. Rochdale today has a 30 percent Islamic population. This is certified not by some conspiracy site, but by the New York Times. The city has already had an Islamic mayor.

Just like the mayors of Birmingham, Leeds, Blackburn, Sheffield, Oxford, Oldham and Rochdale.

Delightful multiculturalism!

“Mosques are on the rise in British cities; there are thousands of new buildings with domes and minarets and in the decades to come mosques will mushroom across the country,” writes Ed Husain, one of the U.K.'s leading Muslim intellectuals, advisor to Tony Blair and author of Among the Mosques.

“By the end of this decade, much of East London, Yorkshire, and Lancashire will have Muslim majorities, but the cultural implications of this transformation of British society are not openly discussed. Mini-caliphates across Britain await us.”

“With Islam at 30 percent, what will happen?” wrote Danish novelist Birgithe Kosovic in the Danish daily Politiken.

Here’s what’s going to happen: Rochdale. They will elect Islamic populists, and in its streets they will celebrate Hamas, Muhammad’s birthday, and the end of the West.

I recently witnessed something I haven’t seen in a long time. On Friday, August 16, 2024, a group of pro-Hamas activists packed up their signs and went home in the face of spirited and non-violent opposition from a coalition of pro-American Iranians and American Jews. The last time I saw anything like that happen was in 2006 or 2007, when I led a crowd of Israel supporters in chants in order to silence a heckler standing on the sidewalk near the town common in Amherst, Massachusetts. The ridicule was enough to prompt him and his fellow anti-Israel activists to walk away, as we cheered their departure. It was glorious.
