Win – Win. And Win. Sir Iqbal Sacranie, Blair’s favourite “moderate Muslim” is only to be pitied for saying during an interview for BBC Radio Four’s PM programme on Jan 3rd:-
Inevitably, a complaint was received by police from some homosexual activist, and now Sacranie is under investigation for his role in “a homophobic incident”. There are three messy little ways this unnecessary timebomb can explode, and each has something interesting in it. The first way, of course, is very much the more likely to predict reality. SCENARIO 1 Following a brief investigation by officers at West End Central police station Sir Iqbal Sacranie, the secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain, does not face prosecution for using “language of an abusive and insulting nature”. The Daily Telegraph takes up the story:-
SCENARIO 2 Following a lengthy investigation by officers at West End Central police station Sir Iqbal Sacranie, the secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain, is sent to trial but is found not guilty under section 5 of the Public Order Act 1986 of using “language of an abusive and insulting nature”. The Daily Telegraph takes up the story:-
SCENARIO 3 Following a lengthy investigation by officers at West End Central police station Sir Iqbal Sacranie, the secretary general of the Muslim Council of Britain, is sent to trial and is found guilty under section 5 of the Public Order Act 1986. Despite the supportive interventions of Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams and Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sachs, Sir Iqbal is found to have used language of an abusive and insulting nature. He is duly fined £100 - the maximum penalty is £1,000 - but afterwards insists to the press that he was only voicing the traditional position of his Islamic faith on a moral matter of importance to believers. The Daily Telegraph takes up the story, reporting much anger and resentment among British Muslims at the verdict. Mohammad Naseem, the most senior Islamic cleric in Birmingham, is reported saying:-
Well, take you pick. Like I said, I think the Sacranie affair will be dropped as quietly as possible. But you never know. We might see some fun yet. Comments:2

Posted by Phil on Fri, 13 Jan 2006 09:16 | # The Government will drop this episode like a hot potato. Nothing will happen. It is the only way to prevent another serious embarassment to Multiculturalism. It will get swept under the carpet. I think Sacranie’s position here is stronger of the two. Islam condemns homosexuality. So Sacranie’s followers will stand by him completely. And the Government could end up being very seriously embarassed if it tried presecuting Sacranie. The Homosexuals will have to go scoruing for a white heterosexual male to prosecute. They aren’t going to have much luck with Muslims. Homosexuals and women are the two “minority” groups that can be of use to white racial politics.* They are primarily the reason why we are in this mess in the first place. For the homosexual angle, check out Pim Fortuyn’s career. Fortuyn was a leftist through and through. And were it not for Muslims, he would have no problem with the Dutch being utterly replaced as a race by any other race so long as that race wasn’t Muslim. If after a generation of assault from aliens the best a country can produce is Fortuyn, then their future isn’t looking good. I’d be more optimistic if they produced a Le Pen. 4
Posted by Calvin on Fri, 13 Jan 2006 14:09 | # There will be no prosecution of Sacranie for one reason, the moderate Muslims of Britain will riot if he is prosecuted. Indicating once again that violence gets results. Ask Gerry Adams. Whatever you think about gays, your teenage daughter is far more likely to be raped (Leb style?) by Muslim “youth” than your son is by militant queers. Is your teenage son likely to be racially murdered by a posse of queens? “That will teach a straight man to mess in fag business”. I’m right behind the poofs on this one (ha, ha!). 5
Posted by Michael on Fri, 13 Jan 2006 19:41 | # he BNP press release said, “Now Sacranie has learned what it means to be forced into silence by Britain’s repressive laws against free speech. He should be grateful that New Labour’s disloyal regime was too embarrassed by the whole episode to mete out the kind of viciousness to him it gladly meted out to Nick and Mark.

Posted by Laban on Sat, 14 Jan 2006 12:23 | # I shoud point out that on the “PM” programme of Jan 11, Tatchell stated cleary that although he found Sacranie’s speech offensive, he should have the freedom to say what he thinks, without the interference of the law. This matches his attitude to the Harry Hammond case (elderly Chritian convicted under public order act for displaying a placard saying ‘stop homosexuality’), when Tatchell said he’s be prepared to speak in Hammond’s defence. I may dislike Tatchell’s politics and lifestyle, but his consistent defence of free speech makes him one of my heroes. 8
Posted by Guessedworker on Sat, 14 Jan 2006 18:27 | # Hi Laban, Tatchell can afford to be generous because he is winning. That sort of generosity comes cheap. Let him lose for a while - and his cause be threatened by free speech - before you adjudge him a free-speaking hero Post a comment:

We’ll all be watching this one.
Homosexuals and women are the two “minority” groups that can be of use to white racial politics.*
Ever read carolontheweb? She says things that make us cringe when men say them, but somehow when a matronly new-ager suggests we might end up having to hang group x from lampposts it just doesn’t seem as bad.
Women aren’t supposed to be racially aggressive. When they are, and when they otherwise sound like women, their rhetoric can be devastating.
For the homosexual angle, check out Pim Fortuyn’s career.
*and I don’t mean this in a strictly utilitarian way; white women and white homosexuals are after all white.
