Well, as you have in fact provided a civil answer, Jim, I will politely reply thank you; tho I can't quite see all the cause of your objection to the points I made. In particular, I must take up your accusation that I think some persecution worse than other, because it seems to me self-evident that some persecution IS worse than other. I don't think that the Holocaust, or Stalin's gulag s and his 1936 Moscow Trials & executions and his extermination of the kulaks, or the worst excesses of the Inquisition, are to be placed on an equivalent footing to the Irish girls prevented from having abortions, who have been adduced here, by you & others, as being 'persecuted' in tones to suggest the severity of all these persecutions are equal. You remind me of someone [Richard Bridge IIRC?] accusing me in tones of reprimand on another thread of being more hostile towards some religions than others, as if that somehow wasn't cricket.

Sorry; but I think that is just plain silly. Some religions are more reprehensible and undesirable in their effects than others; and some persecutions likewise. If that's all you mean by a 'sliding scale' then let it slide!

"Such precision on Jim's part! 'Seems to remember', does he? In relation to what, precisely?"
It was in regard to my pointing out that a soldier in the Swiss Gaurd was sexually harassed by senior clergy in the Vatican - not a world shattering event until you put it in the context of the thousands of children raped and abused by Clergy from the same stable who had charge over both the bodies and, if we are to believe the píshoges, the souls of those children
My point is, and remains that all religions pose a threat and have been known to persecute at every level when the circumstance are favourable to do so - a fact Keith has persistently ruled as "offside".
I wonder which side of the percentage of your support for him that sort of thing falls in.
"The moment has passed."
You have persistently operated a sliding scale in all this in making one type of persecution less important than another and attempting, alongside Achey the Invincible, to rule persecution as not being valid to this discussion.

"Not if by persecution you mean the kind that involves people being murdered, tortured,"
It seems that you are happy to condemn fanatical Islamists for murdering in the name of their religion, but are not prepared to even consider generations of ruined lives deliberately brought on families of "every British male Pakistani" (your very words, I think) - men women, children whose lives are scared and damaged by prejudice such as yours.
I don't mean anything - I don't differentiate between persecution by nutters and persecution by bigots like yourself on entire families and communities - sorry - that's not entirely true - I certainly do cnsider one far more serious, all-embracing and long lasting than the other - guess which?
I really am not surprised that you accept one without condemnation, being the bigot you are.
Mike
Throughout these arguments you have dismissed (even sneered at) racist persecution as being not serious enough to be considered persecution ("ah diddums" - I seem to remember was one of the phrases you used.)
May I say you do a fine line in double-standards, and when you can't be bothered to sell them yourself, your quite happy to let this abomination sell them on your behalf, offering a little immoral suport when he runs out of steam.

"It is not current in Britain today."
The persecution of Muslims has been commonplace in Briatain for deacades.
Arson attacks attacks and vandalisiation on Mosques, has increased since the murder f the soldier - official.
Pakistanis in Britain have been recognised as the most discriminated against in Britain.
Racist killings are not common but they have taken place, and when they have, the police have been recognised as being "institutionally racist" in their investigation of such crimes.
You want to operate Mike's 'sliding scale' of persecution - feel free, but widespread persecution exists throughout Britain today
One in three of the British people interviewed on the subject have admitted to holding and expressing racist views
This 'passive racism' impinges on the lives of the whole immigrant population in one way or another - from discrimination in everyday living, education, personal security and comfort, right up to fear for their lives.
God knows how much this would accelerate if your "cultural implant" theory was ever taken seriously.
This pattern is repeated throughout the Christian world - France, Germany, eastern Europe, where once again extreme racism is on the rise.
Won't go into the persecution of Muslims in Israel for fear of creating another black hole.
There is still far more persecution by Christians in the world as ther is of them
There always has been - as I said, it goes with all major religions and will remain so wherever religion has secular power and influence

Ok. To be Christian persecution it has to be available now on The BBC.

I know Keith is going to bristle at the insinuation here so let me make quite clear that I notice the UKIP are distancing themselves from one if their councillors.

A UKIP politician is persecuting gay people by saying the recent floods are because of the vote to accept gay marriage into law. He then seeks to persecute the vast majority of the country by saying it is a Christian country and we are wrong for turning our backs on God.

Luckily we can laugh at the preposterous fool but you know, there is a huge groundswell of stupidity agreeing with him and irresponsible lack of condemnation of such tosh by people paid to speak for religious cults.

Ah, that's better!
Your depraved hatred appears to have no limits
In order to save face you appear to have turned the bloody opposition to a murderous dictator into a Jihadist war.
The article containing the facts about the village being "held hostage" describes the combatants being "rebels including some Jihadists"
All the villagers were unharmed.
Thanks to the non-intervention of the West in Syria (supported by you)fundamentalists have become influential in the opposition of Assad.
This has been exacerbated by Britain selling weapons (including chemicals) and riot control equipment to Assad to allow him to continue to slaughter his people.
There are now estimated to be one million unsettled Syrian refugees fleeing from Assad

"Jim says he has found some false ones, but has chosen not to reveal which.
Why should anyone believe him?"
Because, unlike you, I deliberately make it a policy on not telling lies, not because of any particularly high moral principles, but because I see no point in taking part in discussions that are generated by false information.
I come to these discussions to say what I think I know and to learn from others - not, again like you, to win prizes "I win" - a constant quote of yours.
You have been caught out over and over again deliberately lying (then blaming someone else) selecting information that you believe to be supportive of your case and omitting that which doesn't, of deliberately doctoring statements (you carefully cut out lines from Jack Straw's argument on Muslim sex crimes before you pasted it up) - on one occasion you even posted under a false identity supporting your own argument when you were getting no support from anywhere else - you were publicly warned by the site referees for having done this.
You are the most dishonest, disreputable and fanatical poster on this forum (I nearly wrote "one of the most" but I can't think of anybody who openly tells lies on this forum - not one, you stand alone in this.
I swore I wasn't going to enter into the "true-false" black hole that arguing with you eventually ends in.
Earlier I dipped into a few references earlier and found them unreliably ambivalent, untraceable, or openly false.
I have just gone through the first five and found them exactly as I described them.
The last one in particular is interesting because it has been put up to suggest that opposition to Assad is 'Muslim Jihad terrorism' - now there's a thought to be mulled over by the citizens of Homs who were massacred.
"The others, if true, seem to be Christians killed because they were Christians."
What kind of puerile argument is that - every crime committed against a Christian, Jew, Moslem, Bush Baptist..... must be a sectarian crime - you sodding idiot.
"I am, but I did not write the list Greg.
Can you find anything wrong with it?
Neither can I or Jim so far."
You seem, on the one hand to be totally ignoring the five items you have just been given, as is your persistent practice, and on the other, denying responsibility for the blanket support you have given to an extremist racist site - as is also your persistent practice - you openly and enthusiastically supported it, now take responsibility for having done so.

Nor does he believe that there is any reason for persecution other than religious.

Is the above case the only one ever, or is it (much more likely) the only one sensational, because of the cannibalism, that it couldn't be swept under the carpet by Muslim hating media.

Perhaps someone will give him the salient points.

It is worth mentioning that in the Central African Republic, Muslims are the MINORITY!

Religious violence in the Central African Republic has reached a new extreme with an act of cannibalism in the capital, Bangui. The BBC's Paul Wood has heard a graphic first-person account, which some might find upsetting.

The buses throwing up clouds of red clay dust had yet to rub out the ugly bloodstain in the dirt. A Muslim man had been murdered here a few days ago, by Christians. His limbs were hacked off. Then one of the crowd ate the flesh in a public demonstration of cannibalism.

We were filming nearby when a young man in a yellow T-shirt came up to talk to me. "I am the naughty one," he said in broken French. Puzzled, I shook his hand and was trying to ease past him when I noticed the machete tucked into his skinny jeans. "I am the naughty one," he repeated.
Continue reading the main story

"Start Quote
I ate his leg, the whole thing right down to the bone - with bread. That's why people call me Mad Dog."
Ouandja Magloire

Desecration of bodies in war

With a sickening feeling, I realised I was talking to the cannibal. Camera phones had captured the crime. The pictures show a charred and dismembered body being dragged through the street by a screaming mob. A man held a severed leg and bit down into it.

The same, slightly built figure was standing in front of me. He was even wearing the same yellow T-shirt as in the video. A few minutes earlier, I had spoken to a horrified witness, Ghislein Nzoto. He said it began when the Muslim man was dragged from a bus. "People started attacking him, kicking him. They smashed a rock against his head. They kept going even after he was dead." He went on: "They set the body on fire. There were about 20 youths. They cut a whole leg off. Then one of them started to eat it. He bit into it four times and swallowed. It was raw, not burned. "This was right in front of the Burundian peacekeepers. One of the soldiers vomited. Then he chased people away with his gun."

'I swore revenge'

The cannibal's name was Ouandja Magloire - though he told me he was now known as "Mad Dog".
There was a busy market either side of the street, people hawking brightly coloured cloth, skin-whitening creams, and piles of fresh loaves. We went somewhere a bit quieter so I could ask him why he had done this awful thing.
He told me that Muslims had killed his pregnant wife, his sister-in-law, and her new baby.

He saw a man sitting on the minibus - he thought he looked Muslim so he decided to follow the bus. More and more people joined him until he was at the head of a mob. "We followed him," he said. "If he reached the intersection, the Burundians would protect him. So we told the minibus driver to stop. The driver said: 'You're right. He is a Muslim.'" He described what happened after the man was dragged off the bus: "I kicked his legs out from under him. He fell down. I stabbed his eyes. "Muslim! Muslim! Muslim! I stabbed him in the head. I poured petrol on him. I burned him. Then I ate his leg, the whole thing right down to the white bone. That's why people call me Mad Dog."

On the video, "Mad Dog" is seen happily chewing, his cheeks bulging. He waves a leg about in between mouthfuls. I returned to the question of why he had done this. "Because I am angry," he said. He had no other explanation. During our interview, he betrayed no sign of that anger, or of pride, or regret, or of any emotion at all. His tone was neutral, his eyes and face blank. The witness I'd spoken to, Ghislein Nzoto, said no-one in the busy street had tried to help the victim. "No-one at all," he said, shaking his head. "Everyone's so angry with the Muslims. No way anyone was going to intervene."

But the most disturbing thing happened the next day, he said. "Mad Dog" returned, having saved some of the dead man's flesh. He put it between two halves of a baguette and ate it, with a side of okra.
Ghislein didn't agree with Muslims being killed but it was at least something he could comprehend, he said. Like most other Christians I spoke to, he was both appalled and baffled by the act of cannibalism.
Perhaps, he agreed with me, this atrocity was simply the act of an unbalanced individual. Or it might be the result of religious hatreds.

Or - his final explanation - this had something to do with sorcery.
Many of the Christian fighters we met - the anti-balaka - believe in magic. They go into battle wearing a variety of amulets. A group of fighters at a checkpoint told me some of the amulets contained the flesh of men they had killed.

9/22/2013         Pakistan         Peshawar         61         110         Two Shahid suicide bombers obliterate over sixty worshippers at a church service.
9/14/2013         Pakistan         Karachi         1         0         A Christian's throat is slit on the street after being branded an 'infidel' and blasphemer.
9/13/2013         Tanzania         Zanzibar         0         1         Muslims throw acid on a priest, badly burning him.
9/12/2013         Egypt         Sahel Selim         2         0         Two Copts are shot to death for refusing to pay Jizya to Muslims.
9/8/2013         Syria         Maaloula         3         6         Three Christians are murdered in their home, and six others taken hostage by Islamists.

I remember the church bombing.
The others, if true, seem to be Christians killed because they were Christians.
Shall I check if they are true, or will you Jim?

1   All information from this comes from extremist web-sites
2   Police blame either terrorists or criminal gangs - no arrests, no definite suspects
3   Nothing
4   All information from extremist websites
5   Syrian rebels fighting Assad - nothing whatever to do with sectarian persecution, part of the Syrian revolt - all residents fled - no fatalities.

Wonder where Keith is - carefully selecting the attacks that were sectarian, having rejected the first five as useful, no doubt?

"Jim, if neither of us, nor anyone else can find a false entry, it is probably mostly accurate."

From false premises anything follows.

Not enough to say you cannot find any false entries. You produce zero evidence for any entries PROVEN true.

This is YOUR assertion and it is YOUR job to supply proof.

You have relied for years on the impossibility of proving a negative, to cover the fact that you make unproven and unprovable assertions based on the bias of others.

This is the reason for your habit of demanding that others disprove your vicious, bigoted crap.

Then when challenged you back off and whine about not being responsible for repeating the views of others.

Part two
You may recall that some time ago you announced that it was your opinion (nobody else's) that all make Pakistanis were culturally implanted to incline them towards having sex with underage girls.
When you were challenged you first denied the implications of what you had written, but when pressed you invented supporters by distorting and editing what they had actually said, and claimed that it was only your opinion because it was theirs also - a strange enough stance in itself.
In the intervening period you have confirmed that this remains your opinion and that you are still prepared to defend it and re - state it - as you are doing now.
You have never at any time produced evidence of any of your 'supporters' ever making such a profoundly racist statement, but it doesn't really matter.
To suggest that an entire race/culture is culturally implanted the way you have is an incredibly racist statement, whoever makes it.
It is the type of claim that filled the Nazi gas-chambers and Mengele's laboratories - then it was that the Jews were culturally and racially inferior, now, it seems, it is the Muslims occupying that position.
In today's situation, it is the type of statement which promotes Mosque burnings, 'Paki bashing', petrol through letter-boxes.... everything that makes racism in Britain today the evil that it is.
It would make miserable and dangerous the lives of every Pakistani family living in Britain – it makes every male Pakistani a potential criminal by way of their culture – the ironic thing, of course is that if you made this claim outside tthe safe haven of the internet you would be committing a crime – the incitement of race hatred.
You have now dropped your mask and are circulating propaganda directly lifted from a Muslim hate site.
I have little doubt you will continue your campaign on this forum, in which case, each time you take over a thread and fill it with your bile, I will remind you of your "implant" statement, and will continue to do so until you stop – you have just given us your recent revelation that you believe yourself to be "infallible", so I look forward to our future meetings.

"Help me out by identifying a false entry"
Keith,
I'll deal with this in two sections as you seem to have trouble coping with postings that contain more than two paragraphs - so lets get this one out of the way as quick as we can.
It's not mine, or anybody's job to disprove the vomiting of a racist site, it's the responsibility of those who believe and are prepared to circulate such garbage that it's true - you fit that bill perfectly.
Your Islamophobia has now escalated into overdrive - you seem to have lost control of yourself absolutely.
You now appear to have appointed yourself an unofficial (I assume unpaid) spokesman of a racist site dedicated to spreading race and religious hatred against Muslims.
You present their 'findings' as fact and refuse to defend their hate-filled outpourings, insisting that it is all true and it is our job to disprove the evidence you have yet to produce, and show no signs of giving us that evidence.
You have no supporters for your case; I don't really count Mike or Boo Boo - in the case of the former, too half-hearted and part-time in the latter - anybody who openly dips into extremist sites like Muslim-Watch, White Supremacy and Gatestone for their arguments is not to be taken too seriously and is certainly not a threat to anybody other than himself.
Despite your lack of support you have now declared your word on the subject of Islam to be only right but "infallible" - I think the Pope gave that up some time ago!
Get a grip laddie.

I recognised some entries, and checked a few I did not recognise.
I found no false entries, and would be very surprised if you have.

Help me out by identifying a false entry, because you have been known to make stuff up.

Listen, you little prickeen
You have always been the first to reject information because it comes from a "Palestinian paper" or "is leftie shit" or even because it doesn't come a "real historian" - whatever that means.
Not so long ago your nodding-dog mate Mike the MacCathyite attempted to hold a 'un-British activities' - type interrogation to find out my political allegiances, no doubt in anticipation of using them as a substitute for having to answer for his support for Thatcher fascism, Islam-hatred - or whatever he needed a get-out - of -jail - free card for.
If you think you can dismiss other peoples sources out of hand when they don't suit your particular bigoted or racist agenda, we are certainly not going to accept your word on information you've sucked up from a fascist sewer site.
Nobody with an ounce common sense is either going to believe without proof a load of racist/bigoted garbage from a self-proclaimed Islamophobic web-site - and certainly, after your performances lately, nobody is going to take your word for anything, no matter how "infallible" you believe yourself to be.
You want us to believe your racist shit - prove it
If you read what other people posted you would be aware I have been saying that the majority of "facts" from your ultra right site are untraceable - as far back as it was posted I've tried to verify that they are genuine - we have no way of knowing if many of them are real or invented, and certainly not if they are sectarian crimes or ones committed for other reasons, where the perps happen to be Muslim
By the way - I'm as happy to keep this as long as you want - the more you refuse to respond to what's put in front of you and the more you repeat your moronic unproven and unacceptable statements, the better as far as I'm concerned - each time you post is another nail in yoour credibility coffin - as you can judge from the support you are getting for your "infallibility"
Keep it up - and live with the thought that one day you really are going to have to read something.
Oh, and - have a good night
