Does this mean non-Muslims can slaughter Muslims using the sword verse of the Quran as the justification? Do you really want to go down that road?
I suspect they didn't want to be punished for trying to get rid of a power-mad demagogue.
Not by someone who
Was not a Jew;
Had no authority...
You're right. The law does not specifically use the name 'Islamophobia'; this is still an unofficial definition legally but it is gaining traction (for reasons I cannot fathom). What is worse, numerous political parties here have recently endorsed a very flawed definition of the term; one which...
Unfortunately a no-deal Brexit is the default position if there is no deal agreed by both sides and ratified by Parliament. The EU have already said this is the last extension and to not waste it. I doubt they'd give us any more time - the sensible thing would be to just let Brexit finally kick...
Not really as he took the verse out of its context in order to do it. Also he wasn't a Jew and had no authority to sit in judgement over the Qurayza nor to interpret their scripture for them.
@Tumah @Flankerl @RabbiO, what do you make of this notion that Muhammad used a passage from Deuteronomy...
So in other words Muhammad took a section of the Torah completely out of context and used it as a justification for mass-murder and slavery (of the tribe's women).
Just like the jihadists of our day.
What 2020 EU elections? Also, the UK's EU membership is scheduled to end in October this year so they won't be eligible to field candidates from that point on unless Article 50 is rescinded - which I doubt.
Then we might get concrete examples of all this mythical anti-English hatred we apparently feel all the time. Either that or they'd turn my country into a snivelling, self-entitled isolationist nation just like our dear neighbour to the south...
Ethnic & cultural nationalism; xenophobia; isolationism; discrimination against minorities; scapegoating foreigners;
"Cannot be reformed" says a card-carrying fascist who has been so against the EU they've probably never tried.
Either the EU cannot be reformed or it has changed too much...
... and the UK, as a member state, has a veto to stop such measures being put in place. But we're leaving so that's one less anti-federalist voice.
Salvini and Le Pen articulate politics in direct conflict with the EU's values and, correct me if I'm wrong, would like to see the EU dismantled...
:rolleyes:
I'm not sure where this "Tommy Robinson brought them to the attention of the authorities" guff comes from but I feel more stupid by proxy just for reading it. I mean he was videoing defendants in a trial. What sort of mental gymnastics do you need to perform to imagine Tommy Robinson...
Why? It's not nearly so risible (or idiotic) as comparing the EU to slave owners or colonial masters.
Forgetting about the past makes narrow-minded jingoism like yours so much easier. You want to be proud of a history that enslaved & killed millions.
Since when have slave owners allowed slaves to vote for their own freedom and do literally nothing to stop them?
If this is how Widdecombe reacts to the EU she's going to be furious when she finds out about the British Empire and its history of bloody colonial oppression.
I thought that was far too eloquent to be your own writing and I was right. You lifted an entire chunk of that link's article and pasted it into your post. I can't help but see any reason for that beyond plagiarism.
To be fair the Brexit Party Ltd didn't exist at the point this article was...
Anarchy is disregard for the law which is what Yaxley Lennon demonstrates by ignoring a court-imposed media restriction and fuelling ignorance of the law to portray himself is a martyr for 'free speech'. Anarchy is what his deluded cult followers indulge in when they turn violent against...
