Tom Holmes = Islamophobe

IHTF | 22.06.2010 11:01 | Anti-racism | Repression | Sheffield | World

Recently BNP activist and sad loser Tom Holmes has been in the news after he expressed disgusting views on his Facebook rofile and slagged off his fellow workers. He of course denied the accusations, claiming not to bbe a racist. We all know this is bollocks, as the following shows (caution, contains link to Geert Wilders shitty Fitna video)

So what do we have here, apart from a disgusting and inflammatory nazi style piece of scapegoating bullshit?

Well the top post, posted by none other than Tom Holmes himself declares that he, Tom Holmes, hates Muslims.

In quite plain and easy to understand language he succinctly points out his racist and offensive views on the Muslim community.

So much for not being a racist eh Tom?

NOT ALL MUSLIMS

22.06.2010 12:06

Not all Muslims, many that I know hate Sharia Law, some volunteer for the Islamic Human Rights Commission or work with Amnesty International, who oppose stoning punishments.

Many Muslims are more than likely moderate people, especially those that dress in western clothes, millions of Muslims live in USA and Europe and are White people, I know a lot of Sufi Muslims in Luton who are mostly white.

Like many Christians and Jews there are far more Muslim people who are not fundamentalist, most going about their business keeping their beliefs to themselves, for after all religious beliefs are a private matter.

Those fundamentalists of any religion bring their faiths into disrepute - not the kind of behaviour their various prophets or leaders agree with.

Love, Respect and Peace

Scapegoating bullshit

22.06.2010 12:41

"Muslims believe in stoning people to death for minor offences, killing all homosexuals, want to abolish democracy, believe in harsh cruel sharia law etc."

As the other poster said, only a tiny minority, same as with any group in society, you get the tiny minority of wankers who act like arses.

Muslims have Anjem Choudry,we have people like you.

You do realise that by saying "ALL muslims this-that-and-the-other" you are being bigotted and ridiculous, course not ALL muslims want that, but you are so bound up in your hate you can't see beyond that. You can't get your tiny little mind round the fact that people are individuals beyond their social etc. category.

You are demonising millions of people and using therm as a scapegoat as Hitler did with the Jews, you are no better than the Nazis of the 1930's/40's and we all know where that led us.

Do you REALLY beleive that all muslims are these evil people you make them out to be? I mean really believe it? Are you that stupid? Really?

The difference is that most white people actively oppose white racists such as the BNP.

Where are the counter-demos against Muslims hate-preachers from people in the Muslim community?

There aren't any and condemnation for hate preachers, terror attacks and those clowns at Muslims Against Crusades is few and far between from the mainstream Muslim community which needs to change.

Wherever the BNP go they are opposed by white people outraged and disgusted by them. Wherever Choudary and other hate-preachers and racist Muslims go no Muslims go to oppose him.

They need to stand up and start opposing them like UAF and SWP do the BNP.

ANTI-FA!!!!

Above poster, sorry the UAF and SWP do not actively oppose anybody, they claim to but actually do very little. Opposing to me would be to beat the shit out of racists and physically stand up to them, not co-opting with the police at demo's to make it easy for the EDL/BNP to march unopposed.

There is strong resistance from within the Muslim community to extremists AND among anti facists, so top talking out of your arse - how many muslims do you know, how many have you spoken to about this, my guess is a big fat fuck all.
Also, its not just "whites" who oppose the BNP scum.
Also, how does that affect the fact that Tom Holmes is an Islamophobic arsewipe?

Yep, SWP/UAF, not much use. While there are some decent activiists among the UAF rank and file, and they have at least held the EDL demo's in check, to a point, the leadership are shite, like all hierarchical groups, the power of leadership has gone ot thier heads.

The UAF as it stands will not get rid of the EDL, the may hold their demo's in check as stated, but they won't end them. You're spot on there @narcho.
