Council refuses to remove hate books
14/09/2007

A LONDON council has refused to remove extremist Islamic books from its libraries.
Three libraries in the London borough of Tower Hamlets were found to stock books promoting antisemitism, violent jihad (holy war) and sexism.
Some of these were by convicted race-hate preachers including Abu Hamza al-Masri, whose convictions include stirring up racial hatred and soliciting to murder, and who is serving a seven-year prison sentence for incitement. There were also works by Sheikh Abdullah al-Faisal, who was jailed in 2003 for repeatedly calling for the murder of non-Muslims. Al-Faisal was released and deported earlier this year. One of the 7/7 London bombers, Jermaine Lindsay, had attended some of his sermons. The books, paid for by taxpayers’ money, form part of the libraries’ “Islamic literature” collections.
A report by the centre-right Centre for Social Cohesion thinktank, called Hate on the State: How British Libraries Encourage Islamic Extremism, last week said that many of the books stocked “incite violence against anyone who rejects jihadist ideologies”, and glorify “acts of terrorism against followers of other religions”.
This week, on a visit to Whitechapel Ideas Store (the new name for libraries), a JC reporter found a large number of books by Sayyid Qutb, often considered the founder of modern Islamic radicalism. In his book, Milestones, he writes: “War should be declared against those from among the ‘People of the Book’ [Christians and Jews] who declare open enmity until they agree to pay Jitzyah [tax paid by non-Muslims in a Muslim state] or accept Islam.”
Jews, he declares, “wanted to perpetuate their evil designs. At the top of the list of these activities is usury, the aim of which is that all the wealth of mankind end up in the hands of Jewish financial institutions, which run on interest.”
Despite the content of the books, Tower Hamlets Council has refused to remove them, on the grounds that the books themselves were not illegal.
A council spokeswoman said: “We will certainly consider this report as part of our ongoing 12-month review of library stock, which has already resulted in improvements to the balance of the Islamic literature in our libraries.
“We have purchased a wider range of Islamic books to reflect the broad range of views within the Islamic world.”
Mark Gardner of the Community Security Trust told the JC: “CST is well aware that many of these authors slander non Muslims, have a particular hatred for Jews, and sow the seeds that allow extremism to flourish.
“The time is well overdue for public bodies to understand the reality of what these people are preaching, and the detrimental impact that this has upon all of our society.”

I am going to make a point of going to my local library and try to order any of Robert Spencer's books(I've never seen any in a library or bookshop). In the meantime, I shall carry on with my "job" of removing korans from the religious section of bookshops, and replacing them where they belong, in the true crime section.There's one nestling inbetween a book on the Yorkshire Ripper and Harold Shipman at my local Borders from yesterday.
Try it for yourselves, it feels great.

Perhaps these idiotic library administrators should read:
From a recent New York Police document on the Radacalising of Muslims in Western Democracies:
"The jihadist ideology combines the extreme and minority interpretation [jihadi- Salafi] of Islam with an activist-like commitment or responsibility to solve global political grievances through violence. Ultimately, the jihadist envisions a world in which jihadi-Salafi Islam is dominant and is the basis of government. This ideology is proliferating in Western democracies at a logarithmic rate. Salafi literature, jihadi videotapes, extremist-sponsored trips to radical madrassas and militant training camps abroad have served as ‘extremist incubators’ for young, susceptible Muslims — especially ones living in diaspora communities in the West."

May I suggest a small piece of bacon....say about 2 inch square ...inserted into the "book".
Should do the trick better than appealing to a generation of nutters running the country at the moment.
