Nearly 600 people joined the One Law for All anti-racist rally against Sharia and religious-based laws in Britain and elsewhere and in defence of citizenship and universal rights in Trafalgar Square and marched towards Red Lion Square in London. Hundreds then joined our public meeting to discuss and debate Sharia, Sexual Apartheid and Women's Rights. Our protest was met with widespread support and left many feeling inspired and invigorated. It was also covered by the mainstream media, including BBC Radio 4, BBC 5Live, BBC Wales, and the Times.
The rally of several hundred heard a number of speakers denouncing the policy of accommodation and appeasement of the political Islamic movement. A C Grayling in his speech said: 'Once you start fragmenting society, once you start allowing different groups in society to apply different standards, you get very profound injustices and it is almost always women who suffer these injustices. We have to fight hard to keep one law for everybody.'
Parisa who was refused a divorce from a violent husband said: 'Ten years of my life is gone because of Sharia law. I want to stop it. Please help to stop it. It is not fair. I had a good uncle who helped me to escape but what about others who don't have a chance to run away. I saw that many, many times.'
Terry Sanderson, the president of the National Secular Society, said: 'We do not need another legal system running in parallel... Sharia is creeping into our legal system and society and we must stop it in its tracks and now!'
Fariborz Pooya, head of the Iranian Secular Society, said 'the introduction of Sharia is a betrayal of thousands of women and children and leaves them at the mercy of Islamist groups.'
After listening to a number of speeches, including from Sargul Ahmad, Jalil Jalili, Shiva Mahbobi, Reza Moradi, Maryam Namazie, Saeed Parto, Sohaila Sharifi and Bahram Soroush the crowd then marched through Strand and Kings Way to Red Lion Square with demands to end Sharia law in the UK and elsewhere. At Conway Hall, they heard live music from the group, Raised Voices, then joined a public meeting and heard a panel of distinguished speakers discuss Sharia Law, Sexual Apartheid and Women's Rights. The meeting was chaired by Sohaila Sharifi (Central Council of Equal Rights Now - Organisation against Women's Discrimination in Iran). Speakers included Yasmin Alibhai-Brown (Journalist and British Muslims for Secular Democracy Chair), Naser Khader (Democratic Muslims Founder), Kenan Malik (Writer and Broadcaster); Yasaman Molazadeh (One Law for All Legal Coordinator); Maryam Namazie (Equal Rights Now - Organisation against Women's Discrimination in Iran, One Law for All and Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain Spokesperson), Pragna Patel (Southall Black Sisters and Women Against Fundamentalism founding member), Fariborz Pooya (Iranian Secular Society and Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain Chair), and Carla Revere (Lawyers' Secular Society Chair). Sargul Ahmad (International Campaign against Civil Law in Kurdistan Iraq head) also spoke about the situation in Iraq under Sharia and the need for international solidarity.
March 7 was One Law for All's first warning to the British government and the political Islamic movement. As Maryam Namazie said on the day: "We won't stand idly by whilst the British government relegates a huge segment of our society to sham courts and regressive rules and appeases the Islamists here or elsewhere. And we will bring the political Islamic movement to its knees in Britain in much the same way that people are doing in Iran and elsewhere." She added: "We will keep growing in numbers and strength until we get rid of Sharia councils and religious tribunal's altogether."

I have always insisted that
I have always insisted that educate women in Islamic community and islam will die a quick death! A well educated self sufficient moslem woman who does not have to depend on arab dik or dildo, will throw the islam in the gutter , where it (islam) rightfully belongs and will see the end of islam.
I mean which educated woman can tolerate her being called vagina ( C*nt) and which woman will accept that a passing donkey, woman and fart will anull the prayers to the pedophile prophet? Only illiterate and uneducateable woman would.Rest would throw islam in gutter.
Cmmon Proud Kafir, what are
Cmmon Proud Kafir, what are you even talking about. I know many Muslim women born and brought up in Europe who think that Hijab is a gift from Allah and that it protects their modesty. One my British friends of European descent who happens to be an Architect married and Egyptian mechanic and is now a convert to Islam, she now wears a Nibab which would put a Saudi lady to shame. She wears gloves and stocking all the time, even when she came to India last year to visit me along with her filthy uneducated Husband.
I was amazed to see her that way, cos I remebered as a carefree, fun loving, intelligent british girl. Today she is an obese, tent clad, mother of four living on social security, Praise be to Allah.
So it is not education alone, which helps people, its the ability to think that has to be imparted to people. There are several eduacted people who convert to Islam just beacuse their critical thinking goes for a toss when it comes to religion in general and Islam in particular.
Ok agreed.The muslimahs must
Ok agreed.The muslimahs must be made aware that in Islam the role of woman is peripheral and only of a moslem producing machine! I used to know an egyptian lady , who used to look down upon islam and arab men. The alternative is too violent and destructive.Only woemn can bring about a change and that too peacefully! Imparting education may also impart an ability to think rationally and that's wishful thinking.Happy?
Dear Proud kaffir &
Dear Proud kaffir & ibrahim,
I agree with both of you.How???.My basic funda is that of proudkafir.I do believe strongly, give education to the muslim child,make her independent & she will undo islam.This principle held against saudi girls.
But i find merit in ibhrahim's argument.But this was concerning my muslim colleague's wife,who are from India.A pakistani child named Varda used to come to my wife for tuition(when in ksa).varda means flower or something in arabic. Also varda is used by hindus in India.My colleague's wife on hearing the name exploded"how can they name a muslim child as varda, giving my wife the impression that Hindus are not humans. My wife was distressed.This lady comes from a rich, highly educated muslim family from India.
The Muslimahs are the
The Muslimahs are the breeding grounds of Jihadis.
They breed like pigs.
There is something called
There is something called grooming and that is what happens to most of muslim women. They are groomed/programmed to accept that islam is the best for them and therefore a majority of them see no harm in being giving second degree treatment by muslims. It seems to be ordained for them.
Benazir bhutto was educared in Europe but if you hear her lectures, you would wonder if she really was a western educated girl. She would put even a hard core islamist to shame because of her rhetoric. It was an irony that same ideology killed her but i rue the fact that mainstream media treats her as a beacon of democracy when she was everything against it. Same is the case with the beghums in Bangladesh. In Europe, you will see muslims flaunting their muslim identity much more than they would in muslim countries themselves.
Guys when did sharia law
Guys when did sharia law start in britain? You know I want to know how did it pass through the house of cowards (oops! lords) to be part of a legal system in UK and where were these muslimahs and ex muslimahs for not rallying at that time?
#2 True. Those 19 Muslims on
#2 True. Those 19 Muslims on 9-11 were college educated. College does not teach them not to be fools. They have been trained from birth to hate infidels.
British women and any woman who converts to Islam are disturbed. The Penis and the heart has a part in the conversion of many Western women to slavery.
Many Western women convert because of a need to connect to God. They feel they are doing god's will and the churches of Christendom are not equipped to handle the spiritual needs of people. Churches have lost their way and are not teaching what Jesus taught but taught what men.
If women are told in the beginning that their girls should get FGM, and married off to old men for sex and they have no control. Notice how they stay in the West! Tell them to move to Islam world and get a one way ticket.

pc,
They basically used a loophole in the british legal system called Alternate Dispute Resolution mechanism
Whole of UK is dhimmified. In scotland, muslims get 67% of funds allocated for faith related stuff when their population is just 1%. and some one recently raised an issue about it and that guy is being bullied by painting him as islamophobe and that kind... it is very sad indeed in UK
Islamic mind control system
Islamic mind control system is an evil misogynistic system that believes that women have no control over their sexual urge and so should be controlled by covering them from head to toe in black chadder.
Its an evil system that looks at woman as a jihadi producing vagina and nothing else.
I have no urge to rant as there are no contrary opinions!
british govt and system is
british govt and system is too mild and too docile..and same stuff has happened with india in laws,which have been based on module on british system..
one of my aunts distributes welfare in london and she says more than 95% of them are muslims...
secondly she says muslim guys marries bring his wife,then diavorce her,she starts getting welfare...
then this guy goes again to pakistan bring one more woman(more often she is her sister) from there,,,and then diavorces her..second one start getting welfare..
she said british laws permit something liek 3 abandoned marriage for welfare, and they get on average like 1000-1200 pounds each per month...
woman cant be deported,bcos they calim in reason of diavorce asthey were lesbian and if they go back to pakiland,then they will get killed or something...
they cant work bcos they have kids or something.... everything works like a well oiled machinery,with ofcourse commission of their lawyer who puts clause...
most surprising all 3 woman live in same council flat like sisters, and eating up all govt money and giving birth to futue jehadis...
govt inspite of knowing all this jsut cant do anything....
sounds scary!!!!!!
sounds scary!!!!!!
krishna bhai, u know wuts
krishna bhai, u know wuts more scarier,they will quotes from quran to support their this activity and say this is performed in the name of allah most maadarchaud...
Dear AML, I had a relative
Dear AML, I had a relative who was a prominent politician.He was "secular" & gave full support to the local city muslim goons in exchange for 16 years female muslim kids.I feel the Hindu politicians have to take equal blame,the others being mullahs for the state of muslim backwardness & violence in India.
There three things to be
There three things to be blamed for all the mess. One is the LAUDA of Mohammad that guided his thoughts and actions and am sure the rapist loved his dik and said salat to his dik daily!
The second is the pimp to this rapist rasool the allah( withouthislauda)
the third thing is the greed amongst kafirs for power. I hope the meralauda agrees
in the name of allah most
in the name of allah most sexful,
krish bhai, aml reminds of amul...hehe....pk i agree...all problem in world are bcos of laudas and choots....and u shud be happy his sense prevailed and chose sixteen, had he read quran he wud asked for 6!!!
the coming elections will
the coming elections will determine the future of UK. If the labour comes back to power, in next decade, it will be Kingdom of Saudi Britian for sure. If BNP comes to power, it will be bye bye muslims. A lot of them will face the heat.
Dear Focussed, Let us all
Dear Focussed,
Let us all wish that the bnp with a strong leader is elected.You must implement family planning,otherwise demographic patterns will change not only in Britain,but all over the world.The whole world has no solution to the islamic womb.How do we deal with these buggers who breed like pigs.
Nature has its own ways of
Nature has its own ways of controlling populations of all beings. Even though muslims procreate like rats, there are some things which leave them vulnerable to mass extinction.
a) in-breeding
b) immunization-phobia because they think that it is a western conspiracy to control their population.
c) The world's best WMD's are with infidels.
d) actions of radicals
Of the 4, i would say last one is important. A time will come when muslims in majority will say enough is enough and leave islam enmasse and my gut feeling is that it is going to start from Saudi Arabia.
focussed,actually if u go to
focussed,actually if u go to dawn site of paki papers ppl say enough to islam and country needs to come out of it...specially after attack on srilankan players who wnet there to play cricket...

1.Muslimahs vagina is a weapon of mass jihadi production.(WMJP)
2.Islamic womb of production is the thing to worry about.
3.Then the WMD in the hands of moslems.
4.The Jihadis scums.
5.The moderate moslem scums who put kafirs to sleep.
6.Secular politicians who love power at any cost and muslimahs.
7.Then the useful idiots.
8.The Kafirs who keep quiet.
9,The kafirs who post here!

Mary may have worn a scarf, the ones Jews wore. Roman women didnt wear much of anything (smile)
Allah said women are a big vagina, a titlth. a field, for sex orally, vaginally, or vaginally. Gay men are forgiven and gay women must die Sura 4:15,16.
One Law. Muslims will try to make it Sharia Law. Ban Islam!

#21 Where does it say Mary
#21
Where does it say Mary wore a hijab. Christians women were to wear covering of the hair ONLY in church, not to the market. New Testament Corinthinians 2.
That is a lie made up to convert Christians to Islam and make them think Islam loves Mary and Jesus, after Islam demoted Jesus from Messiah to prophet because Muhammad couldnt allow a Jew, Jesus to be above the best of mankind the ARABS.
#21 A peeping Tom named Abu
#21
A peeping Tom named Abu caused Muhammad to have a convenient vision (smile) Abu saw Muhammad's wives using the fields of wate materials.(bathroom) and he ran to Prophet Mo and said he saw his wives. Prophet Mo didnt act quick enough, then Abu came again. Then Prophet Mo made all women cover except one eye. Gradually two eyes were allowed. Soon the hijab. Allah really knows best after a peeping tom said so. Why didnt Allah say that before the TOM saw his wives backsides. ANSWER; THERE IS NO ALLAH. ALLAH WAS MUHAMMAD.
