The Myth of The "Moderate Muslim"...

A few days ago, I posted this video, with an "alternative Christmas message" from a so-called "moderate Muslim" woman extolling tolerance between Christians and Muslims.



Always On Watch sent me a link to this story: It turns out that the message was nothing more than yet another bit of taqiyya by a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Excerpted from the Daily Mail(emphasis mine):

She was presented by Channel 4 as an authentic - but anonymous - voice of moderate British Islam.

She told viewers Jack Straw was wrong to criticize the veil, claiming concealing facial features "liberated" women.

And she has proven Jack Straw to be 100% correct: Anyone, with any history could lie with ease from behind the veil.

And don't even get me started on the "liberation" of women by forcing them into anonymity... If they are so "liberated," then it should be no problem for women in Muslim countries to take off the veil if they wish, and go out of their homes alone without being stoned for adultery, right?

But the Daily Mail can now unveil "Khadijah" - and reveal that she is in fact Elaine Atkinson, an English convert to Islam who travels the country working for a radical Muslim group trying to take political control of Pakistan.

I'm shocked. Yeah.

"I had always been known as a radical Feminist and had dutifully continued the family tradition of following in the footsteps of my great-grandmother, who was a suffragette.

I'll bet she's spinning in her grave like a lathe!

"Much to my greatgrandmother's horror (if she were still here to express it) I was soon to discover that Feminism and Islam went together like oil and water.

"I realised Feminism promoted the very thing it protested against: oppression of women."

And Sharia law, that mandates that women must be the property of a man, and whose word is worth half of a man's doesn't oppresss women? Did I wake up in opposite-land?

Atkinson went on, in an essay published on the Internet for fellowMuslimss: "When I see large numbers of non-believers I feel very sad for them as they remind me of rats or gerbils in cages going round and round on a treadmill, believing that they are fulfilling their sole purpose in life and reaching their true destiny (which is Argos).

So now we can add rats and gerbils to the list of animals we kaffirs are like: Dogs, pigs, apes, ect...

"If only they could uncover their eyes and see the damage they cause themselves and to their children.

And if Atkinson has her way, the only thing that would be uncovered are their eyes.

"I feel certain that if they were to have a tiny glimpse of what Islam could give them there would be Mosques on every corner instead of pubs."

Atkinson now lives with her husband Dr Zahid Iqbal, 38, who qualified as a doctor at Southampton in 1992, in a £350,000 three-bed house in Barking, east London. She abandoned her English name four years ago.

She works for the radical Minhaj ul Qur'an group from its UK base at a mosque in nearby Forest Gate - running a "sisters' group" for other female muslims, travelling the country making converts, and broadcasting on Asian local radio stations.

Minhaj ul Qur'an was established in Pakistan, but operates in 92 countries, and aims to convert the whole world in Islam.

Just another "moderate" who thinks that once we're all Muslims, we'll be tolerable.

In Pakistan the religious group has a political wing - the Pakistan People Movement - which boasts it is "actively working to establish an Islamic state in Pakistan" to ensure "muslims have an international voice and political power to relieve the ongoing oppression and subjugation of muslims around the world".

Those poor Muslims are SO oppressed, arent' they?

Contrary to her claims of being moderate, at an Islamic conference in Sheffield this year Atkinson told fellow muslims it was morally wrong to listen to any sort of music, or to watch soap operas. She urged the conference to stop watching any television at all.

Yet she's 'reaching out' through television? How funny! I guess it's OK to use the tool of the kaffir to lie to the kaffir.

In a statement issued through Channel 4, Atkinson said last night: "Minhaj-ul-Quran is a spiritual movement which promotes peace and tolerance of other faiths. It is against all forms of extremism and radicalism whether religious or otherwise."

Atkinson last night insisted that she did enjoy listening to islamic music.

Sounds like someone's speaking out of both sides of her mouth to me... But then, that's standard practice for Mohammadins, isn't it?

"Let not the believers take the disbelievers for friends rather than believers. And whoever does this has no connection with Allah unless it is done to guard (Takeyya) yourselves against them, guarding carefully. And Allah cautions you against His retribution. And to Allah is the eventual coming." (Koran 3:27)
