Blogger’s Note: I am an objective observer of “religion” and certainly do not possess a literal belief in a Judeo-Christian “god” – even in its Islam variant. On the other hand, as part of my secular education process, I have lived in a number of religious communities both inside and outside the UK. Islam is an interesting case. When I lived with Muslims for a number of years in the UK – I was fed for free, housed for free, and generally looked after – all for “free”. in over a year of this treatment, I was NEVER asked for a single penny of money – or forced to do anything in payment (I had a similar experience in Tunisia, Egypt, and Turkey – although in Turkey I encountered dishonest Asian Muslims from India-Pakistan pretending to be “Uyghur” from China). Was I radicalised? Not at all! All my Muslim friends would disappear on a Friday evening without saying anything – and I would not see them again until Saturday afternoon. When young, people you like disappearing and re-appearing is something an individual has to learn to accept and understand. In fact, it never occured to me that my Muslim friends were doing anything particularly important. Years later, when my understanding consolidated, I suddenly realised the importance of my experience. This was in the 1980s when no one in the West understood what the Soviet Red Army was undergoing in an Afghanistan invaded by the US Islamo-fascist forces (there murderous terrorist would soon spread all over the world and attack everywhere – except Israel).
Another point that needs mentioning is that I was brought-up within Southern England where mass migration at the time was nothing like what the various governments had inflicted on the North of the country. When in Sri Lanka in 1996, I met a Trade Unionist from Yorkshire (a White Englishmen) who had just married his partner in Jamaica and was on a honeymoon. We agreed on everything politically – until he made what I then took as a “racist” statement – talking about how entire Council Housing Estates had been forcibly cleared of the English population, and village populations from Pakistan had been relocated in their place. Ironically, the Muslims I had lived amongst in Hereford during the 1980s had been from these communities – communities of which I had no idea of their history (at the time, we were all benefitting from a completely “free” education system). I did not fully appreciate what had been happening until I travelled up North in the early 2000s and saw it for myself.
Indeed, when I visited Leicester recently – the street my family once lived on (including my grandfather who landed in the first-wave on D-Day) – I was surprised to find it is now entirely Islamic with a Mosque having been built on the street corner (Barclay Street). We arrived on a Friday – the Islamic Sabbath – and were not welcome at all. I then woke up today to read a message stating that two British NHS workers – Rehiana Ali and Rahmeh Aladwan – had appeared on the Neo-Nazi “Unity News Network” podcast, chatting away quite happily with the renowned racist David Clews (he posts Islamo-phobic posts every minute of every hour, of everyday)! These two women are intelligent – both being doctors (with one a Consultant), so why on earth would they do this? Well, I was once told by a Muslim that those who follow the Islamic faith are told by their Imams that they should learn from the “kaffir” (that is you and me) when living in their land – but never befriend, or associate with a “kaffir” to any great degree – as if they were a Muslim. Kaffirs are “unclean” – learn what is to be learned from them – and then cut them off in every way.
This means that politically – Islam does not accept or follow any non-Islamic political path – be it left, right, or centre. However, for the personal gain of Muslims, the left, right, and centre can be momentarily engaged as and when it is considered necessary. This is a despicable position as Muslim are effectively assisting the enemy when they do this. Of course, as a Socialist (Marxist-Leninist-Maoist) I oppose Zionism because it is a form of fascism – but I do not oppose Jews. I also think we are far beyond any notions of the State of Israel being dismantled – an idea which is ludicrous. I also oppose Islamo-fascism (a US invention) and Islamic extremism (a consequence of Islamic theology) – Muslims have no right to enforce their primitive religious views onto everyone else. Fascism and Neo-Nazism is the common enemy – but it is one that certain Muslims feel that they can associate with as and when they feel like it – and yet in Islamic States no such similar freedom of expression is permitted regarding other areas of life (deviate from the prescribed pattern and see what happens). Even in the UK, as can be seen below, Islamic bigotry is occasionally permitted into the public domain! ACW (14.10.2025)
Jess Warren London – 8.10.2025
A charity run organised by the East London Mosque Trust has excluded women and girls aged 13 and over from taking part.
The Muslim Charity Run, which was held in Victoria Park in Tower Hamlets on Sunday, said on its website: “Our inclusive atmosphere ensures that every individual, from the youngest to the oldest, can take part and make a difference.”
It added: “This is open to men, boys of all ages and girls under 12, but everyone is welcome at the park to cheer on the runners.”
The organisers have been contacted by BBC London for comment.
The 3.1-mile (5km) event, previously known as Run 4 Your Mosque, was the 12th race to be held by organisers.
It faced criticism on social media, where people questioned why women were not allowed to take part in the race, given the focus on inclusivity.
