Dr Ghayasuddin Siddiqui - Loves to Condemn Muslims -Uncle Tom would be proud

Dr Ghayasuddin Siddiqui is my first entry. Why you say? Because his comments on the 'niqab' issue, raised by Jack Straw, was the last straw that broke the camels back. This guy claims to be the leader of the Muslim Parliament. Well its a grand title, but when one realises that the Muslim Parliament, is comprised mostly of his family members only. And the annual meeting of the Muslim Parliament can be held in a cupboard, this shows the representation he has of the Muslim community. Which is nothing at best. So how does he ingratiate himself to a anti-Muslim agenda.

When it came to Jack Straws quite Islamophobic and quite stupid claims that the niqab (face veil) are signs of seperation. When it's clear that its a choice of the women who wear them, as even Patricia Hewitt, the health secretary, and even John Prescott conceded, and it was there right, Dr Siddiqui, came to the rescue of Jack Straw's Islamophobic agenda, with the following statement,

In the Guardian newspaper he said;

Ghayasuddin Siddiqui, leader of the Muslim Parliament of Great Britain, endorsed Mr Straw's intervention, saying that fewer than 5% of Muslim women wore niqabs. "This is not a religious issue but a cultural one. Mr Straw has opened a debate within the Muslim community and encouraged interaction. Muslims themselves have failed to create a mechanism to discuss these issues. That is why they have had to be discussed out in the open." Monday October 9, 2006.

Its not a cultural issue Dr Siddiqui, its an Islamic opinion, held by many Islamic schools of thought. Yet this is something which Dr Siddiqui chooses to look over, so that he can look like a moderate in the eyes of this government.

Pro-Israeli Dr Siddiqui

Commenting on reports PC Basha (who refused to stand guard outside the Israeli Embassy) feared for the safety of his Lebanese wife if he had been made to guard the Embassy, Mr Siddiqui said: "I can't see any reason for him to be let off guarding the Embassy. "In what way would his family be in any sort of danger? I think what is important is we take a stand and say this sort of behaviour is not right.

- Just because Palestinians are suffering should not mean the suffering of Jews in the Holocaust should not be remembered. “I want to maintain this Holocaust Day, but let’s try and remember all the other genocides suffered by ordinary people on another day. (http://www.muslimparliament.org.uk/holocaust.htm)

He has allegedly attacked the Palestinian resistance in meetings.

This will be updated.....however if any of you can get any other quotes where he has a go at the Muslim Community and Muslims, feel free to post them. Please add references when doing so.

Well according to Wikipedia,

"Uncle Tom is a pejorative for a black person who is perceived by other blacks as subservient to white authority figures, or as seeking ingratiation with them by way of unnecessary accommodation. "

I am using this term not in its racial term, but with the following meaning

"someone subservient to authority figures, or as seeking ingratiation with them by way of unnecessary accommodation to the detriment of others "

The danger caused by these people is immense, and its time for our Muslim community to wake up and really account these characters.

I am a Muslim, and I wouldn't call myself extremist. However when I see certain Muslim 'representatives' being the voice of a viscous campaign against Muslims and Islam, I have started to loose patience.

This blog has been inspired by a great number of people from the Muslim community, who hate these 'representatives' expressing views which, we as Muslims clearly know is wrong and false.

So this blog will expose them, and the statements they produce, in order to show the glaring distortion and lengths they would go to 'brown nosing'. It is an attempt to expose the uncle Tom's of our community.

Hence this will be a continuously updated blog, and inshallah, I will expose them, with clear evidences.
