The war on Islam has reached new depths or heights, depending on viewpoint. On the back of the recent "Go Home" failure of the Home Office the Association of Chief Police Officers has approved and is distributing leaflets in a new campaign to frighten the living daylights out of the poor populace of our capital and anyone in the country or from abroad that visits London. The leaflets look like this:

They are apparently, if you can believe it, being handed out at tube and railway stations in London. Even more unbelievable is they have not got the stamp of a private company but are the work of the Association of Chief Police Officers. Can you belive this?

My first thought was for the unarmed Jean Charles de Menenez who was gunned down mercilessly by Special Branch officers on a London tube station. Nobody has been charged with his murder.

If there was any gunfire or weapons' attack on a station in London that I was on I would be looking for flak-jacketed armed police officers with the latest most-sophisticated government-issue weapons. This is a country where gun-law has never been a major problem. The leaflet is nonsense. It is akin to the "walls have ears" and the "enemy within" mentality of the Second World War, both about threats that did not exist. The only terror threat on British soil today is likely to come from our own security services. This is the world we live in.

That is not to say an event which nobody could predict will not happen. Such scaremongering on the back of the announcement of more funding for the secret services is what worries me more than anything. It's like saying make sure you know what to do in the event of an earthquake, drone attack or tornado.

Two kinds of criminal - one Asian one white South African

Follow @JohnPlatinumG The Home Secretary is fixated with Abu Qatada and has set herself the task of deporting him to Jordan at whatever cost to the country or even her own reputation. I cannot stay silent when real criminals and nasty people are walking the streets freely while Theresa May does everything within her power to aid the war on Islam in persecuting its followers. So I have written an article comparing the duplicitous nature of her attacks on Muslims, and her protection of the white criminal fraternity. Please share it widely. Thanks.

A hater of Islam - Theresa May

Follow @JohnPlatinumG Theresa May comes from a privileged background. We might once have said she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. She has never known what it is like to be poor. She has never known what it is like to be a mother. Her loathing of Muslims is baleful. Her pursuit to get Abu Qatada extradited to Jordan has turned into a personal vendetta. Yet she professes to be a Christian.

It is interesting that Abu Qatada, like Jesus, her professed saviour, was born in Bethlehem, and this case has all the hallmarks of anti-Christian behaviour on her part which verges on persecution. I have written to the head of the church, the new Archbishop of Canterbury, the Rev Justin Welby, about her actions being out of compatibility with the teachings of the church and await his response.

Even when not held in custody nearly all Abu Qatada's freedom has been taken from him. He cannot speak to people in the street other than to say "Hello". He cannot use a phone. He cannot use any form of transport, public or private. He cannot use a computer, not even a computer with no connection to the web. He cannot stay anywhere but in his house. He can only leave his house during eight hours a day. He is tagged. He has committed no crime in this country. That is one reason why I am exposing Theresa May for what she is.

A hater of Islam.

Two extradited poets - Babar Ahmad and Talha Ahsan

Follow @JohnPlatinumG

The poet Babar Ahmad was extradited to New York following an appeal against extradition that had all the hallmarks of a prearranged deal. It takes time to arrange flights to the United States and seems extremely unlikely that the flights that took 5 Muslims to face US injustice were not already scheduled by Theresa May in her 'War on Islam'. On board these flights were the poet Talha Ahsan who I mentioned in a post a few days ago. I have already written about how Babar was beaten by police, awarded £60,000 damages by the Metropolitan Police, but when a criminal case was brought against these policemen, the judge, who was just about to retire, exonerated them. This poem was published on the internet last Friday, the holy day of Islam on which Babar lost his appeal.

One Day - a poem by Babar Ahmad

Friday

One day...

The sun will shine again.

The flowers will blossom again.

The birds will sing again.

One day...

The rain will fall again.

The rivers will flow again.

The gardens will be green again.

One day...

The lips will smile.

The tears will dry.

The prayers will be answered.

One day...

The shackles will break.

The darkness will end.

The doors...

This is powerful poetry. It is not Oscar Wilde, whose Ballad of Reading Gaol was beautifully read yesterday by Alex Jennings on Poetry Please! Wilde had a unique voice, and like Babar, experienced unjust penal incarceration. How fittingly the following lines can be applied to all whose liberty has been removed. 

I know not whether Laws be right,
Or whether Laws be wrong;
All that we know who lie in gaol
Is that the wall is strong;
And that each day is like a year,
A year whose days are long.

Talha Ahsan is also a poet. He suffers from Asperger Syndrome, a form of autism. He has however written for Ceasefire Magazine and published a volume of his poetry entitled This Be The Answer. While Talha still had hope in July 2011 he wrote a great poem Extradition. He was realistic enough to know the nasty nature of Theresa May, 'a feeble servant' to her masters in the US.

Theresa May, a minister at home

though feeble servant to her masters there;

a solitary torture chamber cell,

To put me in, she’ll simply say, ‘Away!’

So let me while I can devote my time

to work for my own justice over here.

(C) Talha Ahsan, HMP Long Lartin, 19 July 2011

And so it proved, Theresa May was that 'feeble servant' of the United States of America. The time has come for righteous people to speak out and get our British citizens back on British soil. Writers, poets artists, these are our brothers. Speak out for them!
