Riots imminant?

Britain'spolice chiefs seem to have learned nothing from their shocking intelligence failure on 7/7.


Several gangs of young Muslim men were out in force on the streets, intimidating and attacking as many as possible of the remaining mainly middle aged and elderly whites in the area. And the trouble has continued ever since. According to a report in the ELA on 3rd August:

"Residents of the Jesus Green estate in Bethnal Green claim the police have failed to take action over a spate of attacks in the area in the last few weeks. An anonymous resident claimed that since July 21, Asian youths have carried out over a dozen attacks on whites in and around Columbia Road. She said one man had been admitted to the Royal London Hospital in a critical condition after being glassed and kicked, while a retired priest had been set upon with bike chains. Police could not confirm these incidents."

Another report in the paper on the same day told of how an Australian barman working in the area was attacked by "a large group of 15 and 16 year-old" Asians. "They said: 'What the f**k are you doing walking down our street?'"

"Meanwhile, Linda Wilkinson, of the Jesus Hospital Estate Residents Association in the area, says a gang of Asian youths there has been attacking white people for almost a year. 'It's been absolutely appalling, people have been hospitalised, it's a gang of Asian youths and it's a turf war,' she claimed."


The police have finally been forced by the severity of the attacks to meet local residents and suggest the installation of CCTV cameras, but under Ian Blair's Islamophile regime nothing really effective is being done. It has been left to a Brick Lane Imam, Ajmal Masroor, to confirm the racist nature of the ethnic cleansing campaign being waged by some in his community, and to condemn it:

"From talking to people a pattern has been identified that a group of young Bangladeshi boys are attacking middle aged white men. I am a Bangladeshi myself and I find it absolutely loathsome and despicable that young people are doing this, and I call on Bangladeshi parents and elders to try and put a stop to it."

Good for him, but isn't the really despicable thing the way in which senior police officers and the national media are refusing to address this problem? The real danger is that this kind of low- to medium-level anti-white racist violence will create the atmosphere of righteous 'kufr-hating' aggression and confidence that will turn some of the young thugs involved into potential recruits for a future Islamic terror campaign in London.

The idea that terrorist jihad should start with a group of young men walking down the street and punching an innocent passing white person was first publicised in a remarkable Channel 4 exposure on 'Islam in Burnley' several years ago. This showed Abu Hamza making just that suggestion while preaching in a mosque in Burnley.

Decoys needed

Given the close connections already established between the two gangs of suicide bombers and the Hamza-influenced Finsbury Park and Brixton mosques, it is clear that the police should be taking any sign that young Muslims are following his wicked advice very seriously indeed. The anti-white racist gangs operating in East London should therefore be targeted by police operations using older plain-clothes decoy officers (it would be nice to be able to insist on Ian Blair being personally involved, as it would make a change from making vain and idle boasts about how well his 'force' is handling everything) to draw them out for arrest and very rapid justice.

Continued failure to do so not only risks someone being beaten, kicked or stabbed to death, but also giving the confidence to act to another home-grown Islamic terror cell. Neither result is acceptable. The police must stop pussy-footing and get tough with the criminals now.
