Terrorist Hizb ut-Tahrir gives headline speech at UK university but Pamela Geller banned

15

Pamela Geller banned and this designated Islamic terrorist group given free rein. What a disgrace. The UK is doomed. Norming the Nazis.

This is what surrender to Islam looks like.

American is not immune – this is analogous to terror and sharia supporter Sarsour giving the keynote address at the commencement ceremonies at CUNY.

But who does the UK consider the real danger?

Fury as radical Islamist gives headline speech at university campaign group HQ

A RADICAL Islamist group facing a government ban has sparked outrage across the country after a senior member gave a keynote speech at the headquarters of Universities UK.

By Sofia Petkar, The Express, Jul 31, 2017:

  • The Hizb ut-Tahrir is a Salafi movement blacklisted across parts of Europe and much of the Middle East for its public support of a caliphate and the introduction of Sharia law throughout the Islamic world.
  • Described in Government reports as anti-semitic, homophobic and anti-Western, the group has hit the headlines multiple times, most recently for encouraging British Muslims not to vote in the General Election, and praising the concept of jihad.
  • Hizb ut-Tahrir, meaning “Party of Liberation,” was founded by Palestinian Taqiuddin al-Nabhani al-Filastyni in 1953, with chapters operating in more than 40 countries, and has been described as a “conveyer belt for terrorists”.

Jamal Harwood’s participation at the event was not disclosed to the venue

The movement has incited fury once again, after its national executive Jamal Harwood addressed delegates at the Great Debate event, held at the Woburn House Conference Centre earlier this year.

The centre is owned by advocacy organisation Universities UK (UUK), which represents the higher education sector across the country.

Outrage after Jamal Harwood was chosen as a keynote speaker

Hizb ut-Tahrir is one of the organisations “no platformed” by the National Union of Students, with a number of universities cancelling events when learning speakers from this organisation are on the line-up.Introduced in 1974, the NUS’ “No Platform” policy prevents individuals or groups known to hold racist or fascist views from speaking at NUS events.

It also ensures NUS officers will not share a public platform with individuals or groups known to hold racist or fascist views.

The union has only six organisations listed under this policy at present – Al-Muhajiroun, British National Party, English Defence League, Hizb ut-Tahrir, Muslim Public Affairs Committee and National Action.

The external event was hosted at Woburn House in London

It has emerged Mr Harwood spoke as part of a panel titled “Is the Caliphate a viable alternative for the Middle East?” alongside a professor from SOAS University of London, at the event held in April.Conservative MP Andrew Bridgen expressed his fury at the inclusion of Harwood in the line-up, saying: “What possessed them to consider this a group to be invited onto their premises and indulge in their extreme views of Islamic domination?

“I think they need to explain what they were thinking and what they were hoping to achieve by hosting this group?”

However, Universities UK claim they had no idea of the controversial addition to the event line-up, insisting the information had not been disclosed to the conference centre at the time of booking.

The group has been described as a “conveyer belt for terrorists”

A spokesman for Universities UK told the Express.co.uk: “This was not a Universities UK event. It was an event booked by an external organisation at Woburn House Conference Centre.

“Woburn House Conference Centre were not informed that a speaker from Hizb ut-Tahrir would be taking part in this external, evening event.“Had they been made aware that a Hizb ut-Tahrir representative was involved, the event would not have been allowed to take place.”

“The event was described simply as a Great Debate. It is now clear that information about the event was withheld by the organisers.

“Woburn House Conference Centre will not allow the organiser to book any future events at the venue.”

Express.co.uk contacted the National Union of Students, who declined to comment, and the Hizb ut-Tahrir, who are yet to respond.

Unless Brits get smarter and vote out these Left/liberal Pro-islam Loons its going to get lot worse.

When citizens are organised , aware and willing to fight this using the Legal methods its possible to win against the Islamonazis just as Parents of san diego school did http://tinyurl.com/y8yzso88

Its a lesson on how to fight back and win. Its far more difficult in Europe due to Pro-islam Left/liberal Loons running the govt.

Pam, don’t even bother with Europe. (Robert Spencer, as well) They sold their souls to the Arab League long ago, so let them enjoy their Muslim friends. Please don’t waste your time trying to save them from themselves. They hate you, they hate Jews and, yes, they hate America. Please keep the fight in America where you are valued and appreciated, at least by many. America is worth saving, Europe isn’t.

Just a tad if an over reach. Did all Americans vote for Obama twice? Using your logic they did. Get a grip.

I don’t think it is an overreach. Our American electoral process works differently than the electoral processes in other places. Obama won twice, but thankfully, he did not win a third term in the form of Hillary. Not only that, but the cornerstone of Trump’s campaign was stopping Muslim immigration/hijrah. We can debate the popular vote vs. electoral college vote elsewhere, but outside liberal states such as CA, NY, etc., Trump won the support of the good, honest, “basket of deplorables” typical American who clings to guns and religion, and I proudly fit into that group! Additionally, republicans won the House, the Senate and a large majority of state governors.

I worked for a large, multinational American hotelier
and spent lots of time in Europe working closely with Europeans. These Europeans were what would be considered political moderates, middle class, typical every-day types, not extremists.

I was there shortly after 9/11 and I was shocked at what these people had to say about what happened. Although they didn’t jump for joy and pop the champagne corks to celebrate, they certainly got some pleasure that America, in essence, got a good kick in the nuts. They really look down on us and to put it plainly, they don’t like us. Of course, they envy us, as what they say, and how they say it, reeks of envy. And by the way, they are quite fond of Islam and the Muslim world partly because they see it as a powerful force against America and, by the way, Jews and Israel. They have this pathological obsession and hatred of Jews and Israel, as well as American Christian conservatives. Furthermore, they constantly mocked and made fun of George Bush and Dick Cheney. Although I don’t wear my religion on my sleeve and I keep my religion between God and me, I am a Christian conservative and when I hear people criticize America
or Israel, I politely and diplomatically speak up.

I certainly didn’t mean to write a lengthy dissertation, but two-term Obama was more an aberration, whereas Europe’s situation is not; it is fully congruent with the European ethos and worldview.

Right, and you’d think Europeans would be more appreciative.

It is totally irrelevant and of no consequence how many muslim murderers speak in englandistan, it is saturated with as much islam as possible, it cannot be wrung out, even if there was any will to do so. The only thing to do with all of western europe and its new islamic overlords, is ridicule and mock them, while they feed off the carrion of the european union’s economies.

PROOF that the left have taken over even education. This should alarm you Brits. They have overtaken the MSM, the government or ANYWHERE THAT gives them a a BIG MOUTH!!

Because, I agree with others. They are such a small minority they need to take over things that give them a MOUTH PIECE to make it look like they are BIGGER THEN they are.when they are just a FEW. A very few.

And to think these few hundred, or even a thousand or so, are CONTROLLING the MILLIONS of the majority to DESTRUCTION is tragic.

Authority, Islamic inspired censorship of those with concerns over Islam is destroying the open debate that MUST happen to expose the truth. Islamic influence at the highest levels is not just from Muslims but also the growing number of wealthy elite Islamic sympathizers. This will increase the decline of western culture and democracy. Its all part of the Globalist plan to create a supremacist world order with no democracy. Islam will be sitting at the top table.

Putting the English Defense League on the same list as Hizb ut-Tahrir. That’s rich.

So if you’re a pro-civilization group like the English Defense League, and you’re wrongly lumped in with anti-civilization jihadi groups such as Hizb ut-Tahrir, Al Muhajiroun, and the Muslim Public Affairs Committee, how do you defend yourself, clear your name, and get yourself taken off the list, given that they won’t let you have a platform to go over their heads to speak to the public?

For that matter, how does Pamela Geller clear her name, in what used to be famously libel-unfriendly Merry Olde England?

The UK is where my ancestors and my church (Episcopal/Church of England) ) came from and it breaks my heart to see it being destroyed by an ideology that is like a cancer to humanity. Pamela, thank you for all that you do to try to save humankind. I pray that it won’t be in vain.
