Thai at Heart Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Define no go area? There is a part of town that everyone knows of that started to be the Muslim area of town 25 years ago. Returning this last year, it has now expanded with women in full burkahs pushing prams everywhere. I drive through it every day, but have no reason to go there, as do apparently no other white faces. Could I go? Sure, but what has the place become ? An apparently isolated enclave with a mosque at the centre. Is it a no go zone? Nope, but it is also a never will go zone.

i claudius Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I lost count of the number of times that friends in the local village pubs would tell of their sons being attacked for walking by a muslim area on a Friday night in the 80s, because they had spent their taxi money on another pint. All they get from the police is "Please don't make a fuss." I had a knife pulled on me in a street in a 'no' no go area as far back as the 80's by Muslims youth. Then I was fit enough to run off and rang the cops. They were not interested as nothing was stolen and I was not robbed! You had time to confirm their religion before fleeing? What other religion will live in a muslim dominated area? The sikhs and hindus I worked with wouldn't waste spit on them. Funny you say this ,but in another life i developed property and i was taking an Indian guy to see a property ,when he asked me if it was owned by a "i cant use the word ,not PC " to which i said i believe so or a Bangladesh guy ,whereupon he said not to bother as he wouldnt live in an area where -----s lived ,untill then i had not realized how much they are not liked by Hindus and other Indian people ,up untill then i hardly knew the difference .

When posters relay their own relevant experiences (there were more than a few over the many topic where this came up) - they are dismissed, ignored or explained away. When the question regarding why persistent views advocating installment of Sharia law (regardless of their actual success) are even tolerated appears - the standard issue response is that the authorities are dealing with such instances (which is obviously incorrect, hence "persistent") or an explanation about concessions already given in the form of Sharia courts (again, not quite the question). Usually the Jewish angle is brought it as support, differences in community approach and applicability of religious law to non-believers ignored. All evidence - personal experience by posters, clips and media accounts that show there are issues with Muslim zones (whether one wishes to call them No Go or not, is immaterial) is vehemently dismissed, because....still don't know, really.

connda Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 There are ghettos that are "no-go zones" in the US and Europe. The Charlie Hebdo gunmen lived in such a ghetto. Some of the ghettos in Europe do have a lot of Muslims living in them. I think Fox News and other media outlets have probably sensationalized their reporting when they refer to them as Muslim "no-go zones". Still, the Muslims who live in these ghettos are easily radicalized by others, and that's the problem facing the west. I know for a pasty-white boy like me, West Oakland and East LA in the 1980s were 'no-go zones'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a separate case, Ofcom ordered DM Digital Television to pay a fine of £85,000 ($115,000) after it broadcast a speech by an Islamic scholar who said Muslims had "a duty to kill" anyone who insulted the Prophet Mohammed.The Manchester-based channel—which claims it has a worldwide audience of 30 million—describes itself as bringing "Asian and English cultures closer" by integrating its people, the cultural diversity, communities and the economy.

The report said that schools were "highly segregated" and that "white flight" was a factor in the segregation of schools along ethnic lines. It warned that confusion and doubt were hampering progress and leaders were not doing enough to challenge misconceptions. I am positive that you are correct. It is all a myth.

Popular Post sir charles IV Posted January 24, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2015 We defeated those who threatened our freedom and values (eg WWI&II etc) it's time to do the same. Sharia law demands a) convert to Islam or pay non-Muslim tax or c) be killed. In return we should demand of Muslims a) affirm your love and commitment to government of the land you live in or pay non patriot tax c) leave. We gotta play the game as they do. That's the only way they get it. Softly softly approach won't work. It'll make them grow. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7by7 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 In reply to my accusers:1) No go areas for non Muslims in Muslim countries is not the issue here. I have never experienced any; though I admit I have not visited every Muslim country, and not Saudi. Any examples, anyone? .I have never made any attempt to deny that the human rights record of some Muslim countries is appalling. But we are talking about Muslims in the West; are we not?2) One stupid councillor in Radstock, not Bradford, made a stupid comment about the English flag.The Muslim reaction to her comment? From the same article The objections raised about the flag of St George were branded “oversensitive” by the local Muslim community while the Muslim Council of Britain said England's patron saint should not be associated with “any hatred of Muslims”.Spokeswoman Nasima Begum said: "St George needs to take his rightful place as a national symbol of inclusivity rather than a symbol of hatred.” There's more from Muslims along the same lines, but Forum fair use rules mean I can't quote all of the comments in that article.This another example of someone reading just the headline and using it here to 'prove' their view. One would think they'd have learned by now to read the whole article!3) Peaceful demonstration is one of the rights we enjoy in the UK; and if the Palestinian flag was raised over Preston town Hall in such a protest; so what? It doesn't fly there permanently!The Union Flag does.I live in a town with a large Muslim population; the town hall regularly flies both the Union Flag and the Cross of St. George (sorry, can't find a picture).4) Most (all?) of the posted 'experiences' about 'no go zones' in the UK come from members who live in Thailand! I live in the UK in a town with a large Muslim population. I regularly travel to other towns with as large, even larger, Muslim populations. My experiences are totally different. The only time I was ever made to feel unwelcome was not in a predominantly Muslim area, but in a predominantly West Indian one; but that was many years ago shortly after the Broadwater Farm riot.'White flight' has occurred for many years, mainly caused by prejudice and concerns over property prices that prejudice brings. It didn't start when Muslims moved in; it started when West Indians moved in; though it wasn't called white flight then.Of course, if white families do move out of an area when non white families move in then, for example, schools in that area are going to have fewer white pupils.5) Sharia courts, Beth Din and other arbitration services has been explained. That certain posters don't see the reality of the situation of such services and that their status under UK law is exactly the same only shows that they are blinded by prejudice.6) Unfortunately, the UK is not crime free and all sorts of crimes do continue to be committed and, unfortunately, often the perpetrators are not caught and so go unpunished. But attempting to enforce Shari law in the streets on non Muslims is a crime and is punished; if you post a video of yourself committing a crime on YouTube then the police are going to come knocking on your door!Such attempts are also condemned by Muslims in the UK; Muslim leaders speak out against ‘vigilante’ group that has tried to enforce its version of Islam in East London Muslim groups have condemned a string of YouTube videos that have been uploaded over the last few weeks by a vigilante group in Tower Hamlets.A spokesperson for the Muslim Council of Britain (MCB), which is based in Whitechapel commented on a series of videos that show the group’s attempt to enforce Sharia Law.He said: “The views expressed in the videos are not justified in the religion of Islam.“The vast majority of British Muslims do not hold this view and utterly condemn it.” 7) That the TV channel which broadcast the views of the radical cleric was fined shows that the broadcasting of such views is unacceptable in the UK. 8) So called no go zones in the UK are a myth; and those of us who live in the UK know this. That some prejudiced people refuse to enter an area with a large Muslim population is their choice; nothing is stopping them from so doing except their own prejudice. Evidence from non Muslim residents, business owners etc. in other European cities shows this to be the case there, as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micmichd Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Sorry to spoil the party again. It is simply not true that Christian or Jewish enclaves are not allowed in any "Moslem country". I've got a friend from Bethlehem, Christian Palestine. And one Arab fiend from Tel Aviv, Israel. Both areas are not considered to be 'no go' areas for Muslims or any other religion. I've got friends from Damaskus, Syria. Damaskus is one of the biggest Jewish and Christian enclaves in the world. Same same Beirut, Bagdad before Mr - sorry, I forgot the name - found a good excuse to blow it up. And many many more, last not least Istanbul, West Turkey, and, of course, Bangkok and Thailand. Not every West Asian or Arab nation with a Muslim majority is an Islamic Republic. Some are, of course, but they are only a handful of them. IS and AlQaida now find themselves on the losing side, so they were waiting for a good chance to strike an attack, in order to keep their troops amused and get their follower in line. You are only doing their job if you blow for a crusade as revenge. If you really don't like them, for whatever reason, you should simply ignore them. Striking back, and maybe declaring a war on Muslims in Europe, is the biggest favour you can do them. They had their chance, and most Muslim countries took their chance. The trick is not to blame them all, but to pick out the hardliners and isolate them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Christian population in the Middle East is down by between 60 and 90% since WWII, with the sole exception of Israel where it is up 400%'. Any future Palestinian state would be Judenrein, Israel has a 20% Muslim population. Churches in the Middle East are not even allowed to be repaired and moderate Turkey just allowed the first new church opening in 90 years.
