Whilst various Britons languish in prison for expressing their thoughts about the crappy state of the nation or expressing ambivalence about the fate of invaders being immolated or about the failures of open borders and top down multiculturalism, it’s a good idea to remind ourselves just what is NOT landing people in gaol.

What’s not being sanctioned by the state or immediately shut down with robust force are the Imams and preachers in Britain’s mosques, no matter what hate filled filth comes out of their mouths. There is no state sanction of or even interest and attention in those who call for the death of Jews, including British Jews, not even when these speakers are cheerleaders for genocide or call for jihad against Jews and the West and are doing so on the premises of mosques that have a long history of hosting wrong’uns.

Shortly before October 7^th of this year, the anniversary of the Hamas Islamic Pogrom against Israelis there was a speaker at the East London Mosque, a premises that is no stranger to the sort of extremists that this country really doesn’t need, ranting about Israel and calling Israel, a ‘genocidal Zionist project’ and who called for Muslims to ‘unite against the enemies’ (that’s you and me and the rest of the West if you haven’t already guessed.)

The Daily Telegraph said:

An Islamic preacher called Israel a “racist European Zionist project” in a sermon to worshippers at a London mosque days before the first anniversary of the Oct 7 attacks.

Speaking at the East London Mosque, in Tower Hamlets, Imam Shaykh Muzzammil Ahmad described the Jewish state as “genocidal” and a “project of colonialism”..

The remarks sparked fury, with the preacher accused of promoting “anti-Jewish racism” one year after Hamas murdered 1,200 Israeli civilians and took hundreds more hostage in the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.

On Monday night, the Charity Commission told The Telegraph that it would examine “concerns raised” about the sermon as part of an investigation into the mosque’s associated charitable trust.

A spokesman said: “The commission has an ongoing regulatory case into East London Mosque Trust over concerns about the charity’s governance and management. We will assess concerns raised about the sermon in question as part of this case.”

The mosque was previously criticised for publishing special condolences on the death of Yusuf al-Qaradawi, a hate preacher who praised Hitler and talked about killing “Allah’s enemies, the Jews”.

On Friday, Mr Ahmad called Israel a “genocidal Zionist project”, opening his sermon by quoting a passage from the Koran calling Muslims “the best nation”. He said the Muslim community was “as humiliated as it has ever been in its long, rich history” and followers of Islam must unite against the “enemies” who “seek oppression across the globe”.

What this preacher and many of the other preachers who have graced the pulpit of the East London Mosque has done is far more deserving of being classed as incitement to violence than much of what has been said by non-Muslims and which has landed them in deep trouble. The stark difference in how Islamic words of violence and hate are treated and similar words from other groups is treated is remarkably two tier looking. Maybe it is?
