Saudi money suppresses free speech in UK

Whether we like it or not, it is an indisputable fact that “money talks” and if you have pockets as deep as those of the oil rich Saudis money doesn’t just talk, it shouts and loudly.

It shouts so loudly and forcefully that many British journalists, editors and publishers of international repute cower in terror at the prospect of crossing swords with the Saudis.

Police attacked by TV watchdog over C4 mosque expose

Police have been criticised for taking action against a television programme which exposed how some Islamic preachers use British mosques to spread a message of hatred and segregation.

Broadcasting watchdogs have cleared Channel 4 of wrongdoing over the controversial documentary about Muslim extremism.

The programme featured footage of preachers at a number of mosques, including one who praised the Taliban for murdering British soldiers.

West Midlands police rejected calls to take action against the preachers for stirring up racial hatred – and turned on the film-makers.

Three months ago, the police, backed by the Crown Prosecution Service, made a formal complaint to Ofcom, alleging that the way 50 hours of videotape had been edited was 'distorted'.

But The Mail on Sunday has been told Ofcom has backed Channel 4's claim that the film was fair and has criticised the police response.

The programme, Undercover Mosque, broadcast in January, featured TV footage of an Islamic preacher praising the death of a British soldier.

At a meeting in a Birmingham mosque, the cleric said: "There was an individual killed in Afghanistan recently.

"Do you know what was written in a newspaper? Hero of Islam! The hero of Islam is the one who separated his head from his shoulders!"

Abu Usamah, a preacher at the Green Lane mosque in Birmingham, was secretly filmed saying:

"If I were to call homosexuals perverted, dirty, filthy, dogs who should be murdered, that is my freedom of speech isn't it?"

Mr Usamah later said the programme was a "poor attempt at fair journalism" and claimed his remark was "taken out of context – without any explanation".

Comments by other imams in the film were: "Take that homosexual man and throw him off the mountain", "those whom the wrath of Allah is upon, is the Jew and the Christian", and "it takes two witnesses of a woman to equal the one witness of the man".

Explaining the decision by West Midlands police to call for an Ofcom inquiry, Assistant Chief Constable Anil Patani said in August:

"As a result of our initial findings, the investigation was extended to include issues relating to the editing and portrayal of the documentary.

"The priority for police has been to investigate the documentary and its making with as much rigour as the extremism the programme sought to portray."

Crown Prosecution Service lawyer Bethan David said: "The splicing together of extracts from longer speeches appears to have completely distorted what the speakers were saying.

"We have been dealing with a heavily edited television programme, apparently taking out of context aspects of speeches, which, in their totality, could never provide a realistic prospect of any convictions."

The film prompted the Saudi Arabian government to complain directly to the Foreign Office.

The Dispatches documentary claimed the Saudis recruited young Muslims in the UK, trained them in Saudi Arabia and sent them back to the West to spread a "radical ideology of intolerance and bigotry" through British mosques and Islamic organisations.

Last night, both Ofcom and Channel 4 declined to comment.

Våldtogs av sju män - fick fängelse

Den 19-åriga kvinnan våldtogs av sju män. I onsdags avslutades rättegången. Straffet: 200 piskrapp och sex månader i fängelse - för offret.

Domen i den brutala våldtäktsmålet har upprört människor i hela världen.
Det var förra våren som den 19-åriga kvinnan utsattes för en brutal gruppvåldtäkt i staden Qatif i östra Saudiarabien.
Sju män turades om att våldta henne, sammanlagt 14 gånger.
Men det var inte bara gärningsmännen som straffades.
När fallet togs upp i den lokala domstolen dömdes männen till fängelse - och kvinnan till 90 piskrapp.

Chock

Brottet: hon bröt mot landets lag om att män och kvinnor inte får umgås med varandra, då hon befann sig i en främmande mans bil vid tillfället för övergreppet.
Domen överklagades, och på onsdagen avkunnade en högre domstol i staden sin dom. Resultatet kom som en chock.
19-åringens straff dubblades till 200 piskrapp och sex månader fängelse.
Domstolen ansåg nämligen att kvinnan hade försökt påverka rättegången genom media. Hennes advokat portades också från rätten och blev av med sin legitimation, uppger tidningen Arab News nätupplaga.
Också männen fick strängare straff i den andra rättegången.

Koranverser som mobilsignal blir haram i Saudiarabien

Qur’anic Ringtones Haram

MAKKAH, 9 November 2007 — The Islamic Jurisprudence Council banned the use of the verses of the Holy Qur’an as ringtones for mobile phones because it impinges on the sacred character of the Muslim Holy Book, the Saudi Press Agency reported yesterday.

“It is demeaning and degrading to the verses of the Holy Book to stop abruptly at the middle of a recitation or neglecting the recitation, as happens when they are used as ringtones in mobile phones. On the other hand, recording the verses from the Holy Qur’an in phone sets with the intention of recitation and listening is a virtuous act,” the scholars attending the council said in a statement.

During the six-day meeting of the council in Makkah, which began Nov. 3 under the chairmanship of Grand Mufti Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh, 70 Muslim dignitaries and scholars tackled a number of important issues. On behalf of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah, Makkah Gov. Prince Khaled Al-Faisal opened the first session of the council.

The council decided that Muslims are permitted to determine the sex of a fetus provided it was a medical necessity, such as when ascertaining diseases that are suspected to affect boys and not girls, and vice versa. The council said three doctors would be required to confirm the medical necessity of the procedure.

The council also approved damaging an ovary that could lead to a disabled child, but said that trying to control the sex of a child was strictly prohibited.

Saudi School in US Faces Closure

WASHINGTON, 19 October 2007 — A federal advisory panel has recommended that an Islamic school supported by the Saudi government should be shut down until the US government can ensure the school is not fostering radical Islam. The US Commission on International Religious Freedom has released a report that criticizes what it calls a lack of religious freedom in Saudi society. The report also says Saudi schools promote religious extremism. Particular criticism is leveled at the Islamic Saudi Academy (ISA), a 23-year-old private school serving nearly 1,000 students in grades K-12 on two campuses in northern Virginia’s Fairfax County. “Significant concerns remain about whether what is being taught at the ISA promotes religious intolerance and may adversely affect the interests of the United States,” the report says. The report specifically urges Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to engage Saudi Arabia about the Islamic school outside Washington, which may violate US law because of evidence it is run by the Saudi Embassy in the United States. It said that Saudi Arabia has failed to take substantial steps to promote religious tolerance, despite assurances from the Bush administration that the Kingdom has made progress on reforms, the US watchdog said yesterday. The commission’s report doesn’t cite any specific criticism of the academy’s teachings, but decries Saudi school curriculum which it criticizes for promoting hatred of and intolerance against Jews, Christians and Shiites. Several advocacy groups in recent years have cited examples of inflammatory statements in religious textbooks in Saudi Arabia, including claims that a ninth-grade textbook reads that the hour of judgment will not come “until the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them.” Saudi officials said they have worked in recent years to reform the textbooks and the curriculum, but critics say progress has been insufficient. The school’s director-general, Abdallah I. Al-Shabnan, told reporters earlier this week that he had not seen the report. But he said the academy had adjusted its curriculum in recent years and removed some of the inflammatory language that had been included in the Saudi text. The school’s curriculum may now serve as a model for the Saudi government to use in continuing its reform of Saudi schools, he told reporters. “There is nothing in our curriculum against any religion,” Al-Shabnan said. He also said he was willing to show the school’s curriculum and textbooks to anybody who wanted to see them, and he expressed disappointment that the commission did not request materials directly from the school. “We have an open policy,” he said. “I can’t believe it. The Commission didn’t check the texts in the books,” a former teacher of ISA, who taught in the girls’ school, told Arab News. “I know they have revamped the texts. And I know that Christians outnumber the Muslims at the school. Also, there were American Jews working there when I was there and after I left. The principal of the girls’ school didn’t even wear a hijab (head scarf) nor did many of the Arab teachers. I just can’t believe this.” An ISA academy official also said that the school does not teach against any religion and its teachers include Christians and Jews. The commission, established by Congress in 1998 to monitor religious freedom, also asked the administration to pressure Saudi Arabia — an important US ally in the Middle East and the world’s biggest oil producer — to prove it is not involved in circulating texts blamed for encouraging Sunni Muslim militancy in religious schools and mosques worldwide. “It appears that the Saudi government has made little or no progress on efforts to halt the exportation of extremist ideology,” said the report, which follows a visit by members of the commission to Saudi Arabia in May and June. Preliminary steps toward the creation of civil society have not been realized and government pledges of reform have not brought tangible protections for human rights, the commission noted. The commission criticized the United States for failing to move US-Saudi relations beyond what it said were pragmatic concerns about Middle East politics and oil during successive US administrations. “Many observers contend that, even now, the United States does not want to jeopardize important bilateral security and economic ties by pushing for political and human rights reforms,” the report said. The US State Department designated Saudi Arabia as a “country of particular concern” under the US International Religious Freedom Act in September 2004 for its systematic and egregious violations of religious rights. But the Bush administration later granted the Kingdom a waiver and announced in July 2006 that Saudi Arabia was pursuing a number of policies to promote greater religious freedom and tolerance. “Other than the waiver, no action... has been taken by the US government,” the report said. After the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, critics questioned the nature of the religious education at the Saudi academy in Fairfax County. The school again found itself in the spotlight in 2005, when a former class valedictorian, Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, was charged with joining Al-Qaeda while attending college in Saudi Arabia and plotting to assassinate President Bush. Abu Ali was convicted in federal court and sentenced to 30 years in prison. He is appealing his conviction. Källa: www.arabnews.com
